SuperSAINT

Probably playing for them (believe it or not!) He's impressed me though.

That's about £50m though.

Made a couple of good saves by all accounts.

Standard!

Good move for him. They are doing really well & he's been a big hit with them.

The Liverpool link will resurface sob enough.

1st post since 2009! Welcome back.

& Sakho got the best rating? Sounds like Forster is accurate in that game

I like him too. Ever since he was at Leeds in league one. I always thought of him as their (not quite as good) version of Lallana.

SSN: West Ham have had a £3m bid for Robert Snodgrass rejected by Hull City, according to Sky sources.

Yeah. One of my concerns pre-season was that I considered Tadic & Long to be really good supplemental players for us. I suppose the hope was with Mane & Pelle leaving that they would be able to step-up but it's not really happened. Lets hope they can both go up a few gears for the 2nd half of the season.

Started off looking decent. Nose-break has set him back. Can't see too many Top 5 sides wanting him though.

Agree with all this.

Shall we pretend it's me predicting Shane Long's form for the last 20 games?

Good to see Ryan Seager on the bench for the U23's this afternoon. *Update* Scored a penalty on his return

Deluded Liverpool supporting mate of mine says he's imposing as you like, but awful on the ball, dodgy temperament, but popular with the fans though. Reckons he'd be good if partnered with the right player.

Sakho crossed my mind last night actually when I was thinking who the mystery centre-back could be.

Can play centre-back too. Mainly prefers left-side of a back 3. Also plays defensive midfield. Can't see it myself.

Scrub Yunus Malli from Mainz off the list. Signed by Wolfsburg to replace Draxler.

I was thinking this the other day - God forbid we get relegated again, but would be hard to get promoted if we kept selling every year. Best thing about Cortese was we held onto most players under him.

Schar?

Well if he hasn't he will say so on Instagram tonight.

I wish we made that kind of deal with both Osvaldo & Toby. Would've solved a few problems!
