hypochondriac

Seems rather improbable. 12 million isn't really close to getting o'riley is it. As leg said Atalanta will soon be able to outbid us easily.

The only thing we'd be cutting with those two up top would be our wrists.

Not sure about Archer at all. Had this from May: In a season where we have signed Traore, Larouchi, Thomas and Grbic, Cameron Archer has managed to be the worst of the lot. A simply pathetic and embarrassing performance from him today today - worst I’ve ever seen from a forward. Lazy, slow, getting drawn into the ball and cramping the room we have to play, complete lack of movement in the box, not hitting space, not making an effort at the back post, not challenging for loose balls, not closing down, terrible in possession losing it every time. Completely disinterested. Don’t let the fucking door hit you on your way out

Woukd that be particularly good? Scored naff all last year and alongside Bereton Diaz conspired to leave United bottom. I'd suggest we would be better off trying something else

Pretty sure all saintsextra does is put posts up about saints from other sources. I find it quite useful.

I never claimed that.

I was very excited by ramirez. Lawro said there was no way he was signing for Southampton. It was the first signing that showed we meant business.

Mumble mumble mark wotte and Jan portvliet mumble mumble.

Our survival hopes can't be on a young player with almost no appearances. He is best served by being a backup option and see if he can force himself into contention.

Looks like it was a homeless Romanian then stabbing people in London. Pretty standard for London.

Carlos kickaballs signing at the eleventh hour from Costa Rica. Heard it here first.

Not sure what your second paragraph means. I just like most of the segments he does, really appreciated the going home with Adam and Joe stuff last year and I think he genuinely cares about the club and wants it to succeed.

I know how they are seen. I still would rather not lose our top target to them though.

I think I read somewhere that Campbell was something like the 7th highest paid player in the world at one point with them. Absolutely insane.

Yep. Certainly not a blow to morale that losing out to Brighton or Bournemouth would be. Hopefully we've known for a while and have been working on alternatives which is likely as we haven't been mentioned for a couple of weeks.

Thanks. That was what I inferred but good to have some confirmation. O'riley going to Atalanta is much better than going to another prem club.

No idea about if he would want to go there but if reports are believed he would be open to coming to us so he can't be that picky! Yes they will have the funds after the Solanke sale.

I really like Blackmore. I think there are certain people who don't understand what a local journalist is. I think he asks decent questions and gives us snippets where he can.

Watch Bournemouth get o'riley now...

I'm not saying it is the worst thing it's just not particularly exciting. The hope is the Newcastle game can be tight and we could lose narrowly with lots of positive or even nick a draw. I really hope we don't get thrashed in the opening game as that's going to knock out confidence.

Everyone likes the excitement of new players and seeing how they will perform. With just 1 new attacking signing and the only other new players being full backs, it feels rather like a continuation of last season which isn't overly thrilling.

Nothing we didn't already know but thanks a lot for the update.

Martin is a very prickly character at times. Also did it when he said that Blackmore said he looked tired backstage. Clearly doesn't like him.

I agree. Would have been nice if someone had asked Martin directly at the forum.

We haven't been mentioned in relation to him in ages.
