For some reason, this thread reminded me of... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2K8_jgiNqUc

Tsk tsk, you are quite right Mr Fry, and I humbly apologise. I was rather tired and emotional when I posted that last night and what I should have written is "any fans". Thank you for showing me the error of my ways and I shall certainly try not to make such a fool of myself again.

What's not to like? All those "fans" from Bellendia who can find negatives in today's videos need to look at themselves and question their loyalties and ask "Am I really a Saints fan?" How many teams are in a better place than we are right now?

I don't think it was personal, but who cares? Just look at our position, goals scored and goals conceded - they tell a story.

Yep, spot on.

Indeed, respect to Steve Bruce, but, 6 clean sheets and 5 goals conceded, am I dreaming? We really must be a good team!

Indeed, but I am an optimist, unlike some, and those two goals in particular gave me reason to be hopeful about this season.

The first and last goals were simply outstanding, fantastic teamwork - what will they do when they have had time to gel? If the defense stays strong there is not a team in the league we should fear and I really think we could better eighth position. COYR

Reading that puts all the guff filling the Transfer Rumours thread into perspective.

That was a pretty impressive performance for a recently assembled squad. It bodes well for the future, we will be more than safe in Koeman's hands. For me Tadic was the stand out, he looks so at home in his role straight away. Adam who...?

Sorry, I must have missed the link. No, he's right, we didn't have to sell them for the thick end of fifty million quid.

no club ever sold five players and escaped relegation, did they!

If that is a quote from Brendan Rodgers then I am really starting to dislike the bloke.

I predict Phil Neville will be proved wrong.

What, to see out his contract? He will have no say in the matter if the board decide to sack him. Like I said before, why not take what he says at face value and be glad that he wants to stay and be successful.

Spuds got a spawny win but they did not look anything like as good as Saints at their best last year. Poch sounds better with his translator!

"Koeman, who today takes charge of his first competitive game in the English top flight at Liverpool, signed a three-year deal with the Saints and sees no reason why he will not fulfil it – unless he proves a failure!" Glad to hear it, an expression of loyalty is refreshing to see. Shame some on here can't take it on face value.

My apologies, your grasp of Polish must be better than mine.

Legia Richmond: Te dwa przejazdy kary będzie nas kosztować w końcu. Nie mogę uwierzyć, że nie zamierzamy pokonać Celtic na dwóch nogach. Absolutnie skandaliczny - szefowie muszą się toczyć w tej sprawie. Dawid w Szwecji: MYślę, że JEST trochę nadmierną reaKcją Legii. Is this not Saint Richmond and David in Sweden?

At least they have a squad who are preparing together for the new season already - a luxury we will not have. If we finish the season anywhere above 15th, then I'll be happy.

...and Morgan Schneiderlin will stay at SFC! Time will tell.

"Obviously we are struggling to bring in players of a decent quality..." because there are only 26 days to the close of the transfer window! Ho hum. Top half finish and a decent cup run would do it for me, but then again I obviously lack ambition and have been cowed by the big clubs who are not going to let little old us into their exclusive domain. Just like the old class thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2k1iRD2f-c

Hmm! He does look familiar...
