  1. because we are desperate for some pace in the team - and most people can see that because we are desperate for a win because there was no one else to play on the right (if Lallana was on the left and Mellis the only option) because we are just getting desperate because its fun to dream about better times and teams!
  2. Pulis and Molyneux to League 2 clubs - there not going to play for us so do them and us a favour by sending them out on loan Saga will leave for a Championship club allowing us to bring 2 or 3 players in for the same salary (Craddock and Gradel?) Lancashire, Thomson, White - loan them out to get some experience in League 2 - and maybe Boyle as well Also have to send one of Bialkowski and Forecasr out on loan to get some experience - and Bart needs the confidence from playing regularly
  3. Charlton were formed by a group of welshmen living in a part of London no one else wanted too - or could find on a map Hence the red shirts and white shorts for the kit - and the name of the ground - The Valley -as they missed the Valleys of home - plus they didn't really know where they were and had no imagination as they didn't know where they were they named the club after the great footballer Bobby Charlton - as they liked his hair and were all Man Utd fans really anyway and it's true Charlton fans are the rarest in London - although there are some in Manchester
  4. According to his mother and brother he did want to leave - for either a Premier or CCC team - as a Saints fan he'd like to have stayed if we'd been in the CCC
  5. I think it will be a close game Saints have been getting better with every game - and have added players to the squad who will go straight in to the first team in Waigo and Jaidi and with Trotman and Hammond recent additions to the squad as well its not the same team that started the season despite not having won a game yet - we haven't lost at home in the league yet either we are going to beat someone sooner or later - so why not Charlton? and I'm not sure Charlton will have faced a team yet with players of the quality of Saga, Lallana and Schneiderlin it does sound like the think they are as unlucky and afflicted as Saints fans though - they have no idea do they!?!?
  6. Its got to be: Davis Thomas Jaidi Trotman Harding Waigo Morgan Hammond Lallana Lambert Saga gives us a strong solid defence with Harding giving us some width going forward on the left and Waigo on the right the best we've played so far this season was against Brum City for the first 70 mins and a lot of that was down to the interplay on the left going fowards between Harding, Lallana, Lambert and Saga Thomas was solid at right back against Colchester and got forward quite a bit as well - now if he can do that again and feed Waigo the ball with time and space to run at the oppo we should look good on the right as well Morgan as playmaker looking for Waigo in space on the right and Lallana on the left and/or Lambert dropping off Saga on the edge of the box(Morgan stood out in his brief cameo against Colchester - its time to give him a start) Saga leading the line and looking for the flick-ons and one-twos with Lambert Hammond as the box-to-box midfielder - being our extra man in their box! Lallana needs to be encouraged to run at the oppo defence as when he does he causes chaos and space for Saga and Lambert I'm hoping Waigo will give us some pace on the break and be a cross between a right winger and a third striker for us!!
  7. I think if Saga had left in the Window we would have brought in Craddock and Gradel I don't think the fee would be a problem but the limit on the wage bill might be - it could mean we have to get rid of Saga before we bring another striker I half expect Saga to leave this week in a swap deal with Leicester with Gradel on loan to us and then Craddock coming in on loan from Luton
  8. he wants it to work, we want it to work lets hope it works besides we all needed something to feel good about on Saturday and Waigo's pre-match appearance gave us some kind of feel good factor we despearely need a cult hero at St Mary's lets hops he can bet it

    Lallana

    for the next game I'd play: Davies Thomas Trotman Jaidi Harding Waigo Hammond Morgan Lallana Lambert Saga Lambert and Saga combined pretty well upfront against Birmingham and I can only see the two of them getting better at it with more playing time. Lambert is best on the egde of the box - and Saga is the sort of player who plays on the shoulder of the defender - they should in theory work well together! Lallana was great on the left against Birmingham as well - had some great interplay with Lambert - but he need to be encourage to run at the opposition defence and come inside with the ball - playing the through ball or a one-two with the stikers Morgan should sit deep and act as the playmaker spreading the ball wide and stretching the play or making the killer through ball. Waigo will give us some real pace I hope - and a perhaps a winger of sorts on the right! He needs to be encouraged to make the runs looking for the diagonal ball from Morgan and link up with the two strikers Hammond needs to break up the play and be the extra man coming into the box when we are attacking I saw nothing from the Charlton game on TV last night to worry me. Our defence is looking more solid than its done for a while and I'm not sure Charlton have played a team yet this season with players of the quality of Morgan, Waigo (?), Lallana and Saga. We just need to make sure we play a system that gets the best out of these players. Yesterday and against Brum Lallana was causing the opposition defence all sorts of problems with the ball at his feet - we just need to make sure we make the most of the chaos and space he creates in the oppostion defence. He has the potential to be a real match winner for us by creating chances for our strikers if we get the system right.
  10. Most of our crosses into the box are the same
  11. Mills Thomson Melis Paterson and James just aren't ready for first team football yet Lambert looked terrible - like he couldn't be arsed we lacked pace power and aggression upfront Hammond and Trotman looked like a step forward still need an attacking right back, a right winger and some pace upfront
  12. Has to be Hammond and Morgan in the middle next game - and leave James on the bench at best I thought Hammond looked good - better than the alternatives anyway he got better as the game went on - probably trying a bit too hard against his old team initially

    Trotman

    I thought he looked quite cultured today - didn't put a foot wrong really and played the ball out from the back. We should buy him if we can Thomas played well too - with Harding, Murty, Perry and Jaidi we are looking good at the back still feel we could do with a proper 20 something right back to give us a bit more going forward
  14. I think Waigo will be played as a striker in the long run and Gradel will come in to fill the right winger position - with Saga leaving! I see there is no Saga on Saturday as he is away with the Polish squad - a good reason to get rid of him on loan to a CCC side as he will miss a number of games this season for that reason! Looks like Lallana may well play off Lambert on Saturday then - that's if Waigo doesn't get cleared to play before then!
  15. hopefully there will be a good walk up if the weather is good on Saturday! a good crowd, some new players on the pitch, a few goals and a first win of the season would make it a great day! a large and vociferous crowd could make all the difference on Saturday
  16. I think he'll go on loan to a CCC club in the next week or so it's a world cup year and he wants to do his utmost to keep his place in the Polish national squad he works hard but his touch and confidence seem to have gone a bit plus his pace has gone a bit as well - at the last home game they were a number of occasions when he recieved the ball and laid it off when in the past he would have spun his marker and gone for goal
  17. Awaigo is going to play alongside Lambert to give us that pace upfront we've all been asking for! Saga is going to be on his way to Boro, Leicester or Notts County I can still see us bringing in Max Gradel or a fast pacey winger on loan
  18. The Umbro home shirt is the best kit we've had for quite a long time As for Saints turnover it's probably something like £12 million so Liebherr could well be funding us to the tune of £5 million per annum Our turnover in the CCC was about £15 million I think but we've reduced our wage bill on and off the pitch and we have no debts and no mortgage on the stadium (it was paid off as part of the agreement taking us out if administration)
  19. Joe Keenan and Quincy Owusu-Abeyie are both on free transfers. Keenan can play anywhere across the middle and Quincy is a left winger/forward
  20. Bought 4 tickets for Saturdays game this morning at a very quiet St Marys! Ticket office said that so far we've only sold 13,000 tickets with Colchester only selling 80! (I had to ask him to repeat that) It will be my first chance to see Trotman and Hammond so I'm looking firsts to the game. Even more so if Jaidi and Awaigo play. Hopefully the new signings will boost the gate a bit now! Although with England playing we could suffer.
  21. I don't think we finished yet! I wouldn't be surprised if Saga and Morgan went out on loan for the rest if the season - and maybe one or two players coming in on loan. Perhaps the swap with Leicester - Saga on loan for Gradel on loan will still happen. There are are also a few free transfers still out there - Joe Keenan and Owusu-Oweybyu (or whatever his name is) have just been released. The Dutch bloke tore us apart when he played for Brum City.
  22. Serie A is falling apart at the moment - a lot of the clubs have big financial problems. Roma are bottom of the league and in real financial trouble for example. Only Juventus, Inter and possibly AC Milan are in good shape. Fiorentina aren't doing too bad though. A lot of the Stadiums are awful as the clubs don't own them - they are usually owned by the municipality and in bad shape. There is also no collective TV deal so apart from the big 3 money is tight for most clubs. Perhaps the Viola needed to make dome space on the wage bill and we just got lucky! I'm hoping he's got the pace we need up front and can adapt to the English League 1 football quickly and easily!

    Its Jaidi

    Can't loan any players for a week as the emergency loan window doesn't open until then but according to the BBC the emergency loan window only applies to the Premier League and the CCC - not League 1or 2 if this is true we can only sign unattached players now
  24. Still missing a proper right back as Murty at 34 will probably spend more time injured than on the pitch also a right winger as Melis is a bit too young just like last seasons squad and real pace upfront
  25. i thought we'd had enough of Dutch experiments not exactly going to cheer us up if its true is it he's got a bad boy reputation and seems to have failed at more clubs than most players have actually had when was the last time he was actually any good - probably at Ajax before he believed his own hype I don't see what he'd add
