SuperSAINT

Just imagine if we: - Sign Hoedt - Get ONE (happy) season from VvD - Sign a new attacking player. We could be in for a great season.

That Brighton goal....

I'd love to know the truth of exactly what went on.

Not sure where it's come from, but....

Mixed bag for Reed this weekend. Gave the ball away which led to Villa's 1st goal, but laid on a lovely assist for a Norwich consolation goal.

Rudiger looked a bit shakey at times. I thought Bakayoko looked very good from what I saw.

Toby is definitely someone who I see sticking it to Spurs re: his contract. On a side-note, Harry Maguire looked very impressive for the Snakes yesterday.

Newcastle look poor don't they? Thought the only player for them who had any semblance of quality was Merino.

Any ITK updates on our rumoured interest in this guy? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvS1ptJfci8 Had a browse around on YouTube earlier and he still strikes me as an out & out striker rather than multi-functional forward. Looks more like a replacement for Shane than anything, and I'm not convinced Shane is leaving this window.

He's got a future, that kid.

Couple of updates from SSN:

Did we ever find out who this was? Taken from Noah Liebherr's instagram from ages ago.

Good question!

Was very happy with our winning goal......... I think.

Take your point, but I see a 6'2" striker & a team bombing loads of crosses into him.

Steve Mounie is going to be a handful for us next weekend...

You're right. I'm sure it will all be fine. I'm off to the Winchester to wait for it to all blow over.

Sam G was one of the players I was referring to when I mentioned about players not being involved on Wednesday might tell us about who might be off. Clasie is another one.

This window?

I looked up their transfer business for this summer earlier. Only 2 players in. Still no top class centre half. Still no top class defensive midfielder. They never learn do they? Just bizarre how they have let all these contracts wind down as well.

I had no idea that it vanished. I posted on it earlier too.

Not that I've read / heard. Unless any comments are embargoed until 10.30pm in the written-media.

Fair enough. Difference is that they've been here 1 & 2 seasons respectively, and Lemina's been here a week.
