Don't suppose they are taking Pulis as well are they ?
And if they need a GK then there's always Tommy Nofingers. Although underestimated on here I recall reading that Tottenham did not really want to let him go.
This was widely suggested when he left Bournemoth, but we of course were penniless at the time.
I've no doubt he might still like to relaunch his career here, but do Saints share this dream enough to try and sort something out ?
Not wishing to pick an argument with you here and I really hope you are right, but I don't think he is "pure class". Xavi is "pure class" because he performs at the same high level throughout a game,and a season; MLT was "pure class " for a number of years for regular moments of genius. Guly on the other hand is a passenger for much of a match,and providing we stay in the game - courtesy of the other 10- he might produce something exceptional later on to win it.As I said earlier I don't think he can be relied upon to do it often enough.Hope I am proven wrong.
Yes - and for the last forty odd years as well.I saw him fall over too often, and sky the ball wide when well placed as often as - probably more than - he produced a moment of sublime brilliance.Bristol Rovers at home as prime example.
Conclusion is that I don't think he can be relied upon to regularly deliver the goods, over a season. Delighted if he proves otherwise.
Alan Ball - not only a brilliant individual player but someone who would raise the game of everyone around him to get us promoted again.
(as much as I admire Channon, Paine,Davies,MLT,KK, and Golac, Ball was the inspiration for us).
