yeah doesn't feel like a pre-season friendly

Oh Ajax

Why is Stekelenburg getting booed? ohh Mane

Don't think I'll make any judgements on Jordy on this game looks choked.

How old in Kuyt seems to have been playing since forever?

At the moment I seem to have a 12 year old interviewing Michael Portilo in Dutch...

Cheers very good now I just need to learn to speak dutch...

Didn't realise, until today, that Elia played for McLaren at twente maybe he is going to newcastle...

Is he that highly sought after? Has failed in the Championship twice with Derby and Forest, god awful as England manager, did alright with boro in the PL (years ago) only place he was successful was twente ( the first time anyway. This years collapse at Derby late season was pretty ****.

cool cheers

So these are these numbers set for the season now? Nippers just got his new shirt and wants a number on the back ....should be safe to do now?

Well pre-season is turning into a bit of a goal fest:D with J-rod back and Juanmi we certainly have more attacking options this season.

Just got my Vitesse game tickets online piece of **** now I have an ST I don't even need to wait on the postman

Why would we want to do that......... If we take out all the games we kept a clean sheet in out defence would have been crap

Of course that assumes we play the first starting 11 in all games in all competitions. Didn't spurs play two different teams, last season, one in the Europa and another in the league?

Well to be fair the Chelsea "made its" couldn't beat us at two times of asking.

Tbf there were quite a few of us pointing Danny's complete inability to defend even the championship season

From the echo an interview with Les Reed http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/13421343.Southampton_will_add_numbers_sensibly___Les_Reed/ Below is the bit that I think means we won't be seeing Vlaar (or any other twilight of their career type players) at Saints So I have seen teams who want to supplement their squad going for experienced players, players who’ve played Champions League or Europa League before, but are now in their 30s, thinking ‘Well, that’s alright, because now he’s in his 30s he’s cheaper anyway. We’ve got a top Italian player who’s now within our budget.’ "Actually, they get injured more often and it doesn’t actually do what you intended it to do, so we’ve planned all that quite carefully.

Did les actually mention players talking to each other? I thought the point of the interview was aimed at agents? Seems to have turned into another saintsweb hypocrisy police thread. From people who haven't worked out that most football fans are, essentially hypocrites when it comes to their club, and feel the need to point out the bleeden obvious

So basically anyone can call themselves a football agent and try to broker a transfer deal even for players they don't represent and who doesn't even know they want to move.... Time for the saintsweb sports agency to broker a few deals then. Messi and Mercelo to Southampton ...they just don't know it yet.

So villa are losing Delph and Benteke in one week not a good time ( if there ever is a good time) to be a villa fan.

Is that a new version of parking the bus??

Me to

Yes because Morgan never had a bad game ever.......

Probably difficult to find much to get upset about when your club has no rivals and basically ****es all over the rest of your countries football teams?
