Hmm. Again I would say that on paper that could be another downgrade. As you say clasie looks promising, but Morgan is one of the best in his position in Europe.

Again, seems like a good signing but if he comes I would imagine we would have to let cork leave.

Think that's a good signing that's worth making TBH. I doubt anyone will be underwhelmed by that signing. See little point though if Boruc goes as we will be in the same position as last year should Forster get injured.

That's what I meant. It was a brief comment on a message board that I didn't really think much of. That you think I meant something else doesn't make what I meant less true. What reason would I have to lie? If I thought french people were idiots I would say so. I have nothing against French people, enjoyed many a boozy holiday there. Lovely place. you complete f*cking moron.

Ah that explains it. All lies then.

Surely he has a reason if it is as you say? Did he not explain on the radio?

Indeed. No idea if this is true of course, but I would argue it is more likely than us trying to create a stronger team than last season at the moment.

What are you harping on about? Your inability to understand that when I said "articulate for a Frenchman" what I meant was that as English is not his first language he is likely to find it more difficult to converse in than his native language, says more about you than it does me. Idiotic as usual Wes.

Of course it can but let's not try and pretend that the reason we are bringing in worse players is because we feel we can produce a better team. At the moment all signs point to the owner wanting as much money as she can get.

Erm that article sounds like exactly what is going on. Expect it to be dismissed because it isn't positive though...

Actual players we have signed? I think the broad consensus is that Tadic was a good signing and the pelle has potential but could go either way. Bertrand split opinion and these other two we have been linked with seem rather average. IMO other than Tadic we aren't seeing anything to suggest we are going to be anywhere near what we did last year, despite the pretty words from Les and Ralph. If that makes me a bedwetter then so be it

I see people going mad once again because some posters have dared to suggest that more signings are generally underwhelming. Pretty standard on here.

Until proven otherwise, this is where my money is.

I think most are fed up with talking about players we might sign and would prefer some exciting players we have actually signed.

He didn't say we weren't linked with others did he. So far have made no signings after Ralph has spoken to suggest that we aren't significantly downgrading on last season. Remains to be seen if we can get any big name signings over the line.

Maybe it's our negotiating tactics?

Indeed. His fee was fully justified unlike some of the others.

It's not the fact they left but more the way they did it that was most disappointing.

Yeah this basically. I think the actions of a few players this summer has disillusioned a number of fans and that is a big shame. Let's hope that JWP can stay with us for a while and maybe gain some of that trust back.

That's exactly what I meant. Buzzin orn is a tool.

Schneiderlin always seemed intelligent and articulate for a Frenchman to me. Going by his twitter outburst, the reality seems rather different.

Would they? Out of interest which people would they be? Pre season results are for fitness and trying out a few things from the training ground. The results have always meant nothing for all teams and that would be the case if saints had had good or bad results.

Not sure you can call him a class act yet. I remind the fine words from Adam last year and then his actions this year. If he stays for a few years amid interest from bigger teams then I'll call him class.

Spending half would be good.

Jesus it was a lighthearted comment about the video. Way to go buzz killington.
