I don't think it's ridiculous. We look to sign players of a certain age, so we can sell them on for a large profit. All well and good, but don't you think it's gone a bit too far? Doesn't do much for continuity, and whilst the club are enjoying the massive TV deal, surely we're not that hard up. Would we, for example, consider signing a 27 year old like Morgan? (My point is his age and talent, don't get into a debate about him per se). A really good proven player who would give us a good few years at this stage of his career. At the moment, I would have to say we wouldn't.

Why?

I agree. The team is no more than a vehicle to improve players worth before they are sold on. As a supporter, I think it f*cking sucks. Then we get all the PR bullsh*t from Les and Ralph to try and pull the wool over our eyes.

Why do we only have to look at promising £10m players? Why not sign 1 or 2 27 year olds? Not much resale value, but at least we could get a good 4 years from them.

Didn't have the patience to wait for the article and 300 adverts to download. I did get the gist of it though. He's crap isn't he.

Not sure what striker we could get in. Puel seems to reward a striker that scores a place on the bench for the next game. F*ck me, I am depressed at our club at the moment.

The mentality of our club is to sell. End of.

Yes, that's obviously how Stoke signed Shaqiri, Swansea re-signed Sigurdsson, Leicester kept Vardy and Schmeichel, Everton signed Morgan and Watford kept Deeney. Really think some people are being brainwashed.

Why rotate? Surely they're fit enough for a game on Wednesday and a game on Sunday. They're professional footballers for gods sake. Think some people have been fooled with this rotation boll*cks.

Have we got the recruitment balance right between players we can sell on for a profit, and more experienced players who are less likely to move on? I'm not sure we have.

Bayern Munich? Ralph is just a soundbite machine. Full of sh*t.

I think it's more the fact that he has to do it every game.

I really couldn't disagree more. Lose against Leicester and we could be in the dogfight at the bottom.

Fair enough. Prefer Long anyway, Pierre better when he's going forward.

Is Davis injured? If he's not, how can JWP be in the side?

Sorry, more a response to the original post.

F*ck da police. NWA. Do we pay them, or do they do it for free?

I don't ever remember a particularly noisy atmosphere at The Dell. Rose tinted.

Totally unrelated, of course, to Chelsea dropping him this weekend in a row over his fitness.....

Great win. Don't think there's one Saints fan who wouldn't have taken 1-0 before the game.

Hopefully tonight is when Puel proves us all wrong and we start on a great run.

We would do well to improve on Fonte. Absolute madness, in the position we're in, to even think of selling him this window.

Great signing for Everton. Really decent player.

Is there anyone out there who thinks FIFA isn't bent?

I think he was better than Pepe. Didn't mean to compare him with VVD, I regard Fonte's position as alongside Virgil.
