Greenridge

Along with many others. Agreed. The rotating rubbish seemed to hurt him more noticeably than others, probably due to his first season in the PL. In and out and all over the park in different positions with different formations.

Benteke was awful today. Pretty much anonymous.

That's just ******. He needed a decent run that was all he needed. Never got the chance that we've given Redmond, JWP etc etc.

So so much better. Great performances all over the park. Another outstanding display from PEH.

Looks really lively. Worldy coming up!

Same happened with Giroud and he’s been having a mare since.

Are you going to ruin this thread too?

Team tombola.

It probably upped VvD's fee though.

Targett and McQueen

According to Blackmore the vast majority is guaranteed...

Saints, along with 99% of clubs, are not in a position to turn down £75m.....for long anyway.

According to Blackmore it’s going to be reinvested in the squad.

As well as a huge sum it’s also being done early in the window giving us time to do business ourselves.

It’s been going on for years Micky. It’s nothing new unfortunately.

Certainly a few crazy dudes out there.

Watching Forster is like watching a giant redwood being felled.

Has always been shiite so not sure why he’s getting picked out today. It’s not like he’s set a high bar in the past that he’s not attaining now. Boufal and PEH put a decent shift in and not bad from Targett either although I’d rather see McQueen if Bertrand is not available.

Not at all. I just don't see the reason why they should come up with such a story. Strachan and Redknapp came up with similar things. Why not just say you've had enough and move on. Or whatever the real reason is.

Bless. Maybe you should read Monks comments. If you believe the excuse given for his departure then I guess you’ll be leaving a glass of Sherry and some carrots out on Christmas Eve too. I’ll leave it to you to have the last word of course. Happy Christmas.

I have no idea but if you believe it then bless you.

Certainly a **** and ball excuse to leave mid-season. Clearly that’s not the real reason for his departure. Maybe Les will take a hands-on roll. They do XXL tracksuits.

No, they get a voucher if attending St.Mary’s redeemable at the next Hudders home game.
