SuperSAINT

Will be a tough game. Their goal stats are similar to us: Conceded the same. Scored 1 goal less.

*Romeu Thread Re-Bump* Can we have a Romeu contract extension for Christmas please, Les?

According to reports from the Sun and the Daily Mirror, Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur are both interested in securing the services of Malaga attacker Sandro Ramirez. http://www.laligablog.com/2016/12/05/southampton-and-tottenham-hotspur-interested-in-21-year-old-spanish-attacker/ Stoke are the main team interested: https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/2322344/stoke-city-are-looking-to-buy-malagas-sandro-ramirez-in-a-possible-january-swoop-for-la-liga-star/

Not the greatest source, but.... http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2016/12/04/gb-southampton-ace-sam-mcqueen-to-sign-new-deal/

Pretty much all this.

& to make it worse, they are likely going to to sell him to a club that isn't us in the January window.

I like Origi. Think he's going to become a very good striker

I hope not as would leave us short. Hold on until the summer. January isn't a great time to be signing a replacement.

This is the squad I pencilled in for this game (I did this before the Palace defeat). -------------Forster----------- Martina Yoshida Virgil McQueen ------------Romeu----------- ---------Clasie---Davis------- Sims---------------------Tadic -------------Long------------ I think the forward line will be more like Garrett's above though.

One good season effectively doubles your price these days and £25m would be less than that! If it's true, we'd have been better off keeping him on his old deal!

Are we re-activating #ZieychWatch

Didn't that happen with Kante?

If that's been leaked by his agent, then we are in trouble.

Here we go then. Win this one and that debacle today will be all forgotten.

As I have said after must of our sh*te results this season: as long as we win our next game - All will be forgotten.

Sims over J-Rod is completely merited too.

I'm getting good at this

That game still haunts me.

Spoilt for talent at that level when Seager comes back too.

Perfect fit to rejoin Rafa @ Newcastle if Ian Cathro goes to Hearts.

Excellent news! Good to have him back! Will be good to have him for the EFL Trophy games too.

Likely true as we've heard zero on a new contract. We really don't want to be selling him & Virgil in the same window.

Spurs for Morgan? Utd for Mane? Chinese club for Pelle?

PARDEW ON INJURIES Connor Wickham suffered a cruciate ligament injury in the 5-4 defeat to Swansea last weekend, to add to the growing list of injuries at Palace...with Pape Souare admitting he is not sure he will play football again. There's more bad news around Steve Mandanda too... "We've got a couple of problems in the squad. Connor's is a massive problem for us. "The injury Pape's had is so unique to football. There aren't many situations where someone in the game has had this. "That makes it tough to put a time on the recovery. He's in great spirits, has a positive personality. We love Pape. "Steve Mandanda's going to have an operation on his knee this week. We think he's out for 6 weeks. His knee locked up in training."
