Give it a rest Verbal , we get the picture , you don't like Corbyn .

What a load of pony .She made a complete fool of herself on question time . She's nothing but a half baked leftie luvvie

Lol , still bitter at losing I see

Or Manchester Utd are interested in him & he is interested in moving there. Any 32 year old that turns down Manchester Utd to stay at a mid table Premiership club is bonkers . Particularly when they played so many years outside the top flight . He's got the opportunity to sign for one of the worlds biggest clubs , play in the champions league ( next season ) , play for a great manager who is probably his countries greates ever and earn a shed more money whilst doing so . It's a one off oppurtunity for him , he'll never get the chance again and could regret not taking it .Its not like Mirgan or Chambers where it'll come again, this is it . In those circumstances I'd kick up a fuss and demand a move , and I'm saints through & through . It's his RickievLambert moment and despite what happened to his career I doubt very much he regretted that move. He's sat on West Broms bench rather than ours but he gave it a shot and played at his boyhood club . It may not end up well but Jose will regret not giving it a go . Shame it's an English club rather than Bayern or Madrid , but he'd be a fool not to do everything in his power to get this move

He started at Boscombe

Listening to The Times football podcast and Julien Lauren's was on. Gab Marcotti asked his about his " mate" Claude Puel , his reply was that he's a good fit and it's the perfect job for him . But interestingly he said we were looking at him for a while " in case something happened with Koemam ".

I'm pretty sure the step dad works at Sun seeker in Poole . He defo has another child .

Jack Schitt waffles on more than my snap dragon . FFS get to the point man . He could bore for England , and I seriously doubt the sanity of his " mate" at the club . Imagine having to take him for a drink or call him up , **** me just to leak club snippets , I pity the bloke who has that job . I bet his phone bills sky high

It's nothing to do with our " philosophy" and everything to do with the modern game . If you sign and develop good players , bigger clubs will take them , end of . Are you trying to say that if Sadio Mane & Vic played for Stoke or Palace they'd reject Liverpool of Spurs . The only reason clubs don't lose players like we do is because their players aren't wanted as much as ours . If has nothing to do with any business plan or philosophy . WBA have shown us the other way , they've basically had their top asset unsettled and not performing like he should be for months now . Is that what you wanted us to do with Mane , become a bloody circus whilst he tries to get away ?

Because I was on call for work last night I couldn't partake in my normal after match refreshments , so drove to our game . First time I've actually heard Cookie talk on Solent . God ,he's like a throwback Mike Bassett, especially when talking about a " bit of handbags first half" , together with all the nonsense about their support. I did laugh out loud when he ended the interview with " Morcombe will be a tough game , if we can get 4 points from Morcombe & Crewe away that'll give us a bit of momentum " . Put our draw into a bit of perspective .

I tend to agree . If it was earlier in the summer if defo say get rid . Like it or not , we're going to face the same thing with VvD next summer . He can not continue to perform at the level he has done and not attract serious attention from big clubs . If we make Jose stay for one for year we're faced with potentially losing both centre halves next summer . IF and its a bloody big if , we can get a younger replacement in then VvD can take on the Jose roll of organising the back 4 ,with any replacement learning his trade from him . Ive no doubt VvD will be on his bike next summer and we don't want to be looking for 2 centre halves. We've heard all about black boxes and tracking players and back up plans for all eventualities , nows the time to back up all this talk . They must have someone on the radar to replace Jose or Yoshida ,they just may need to act a bit sooner than they thought and get them in now .

Anyone who thinks we're anywhere near as strong as last year is deluded . We've lost 2 nailed on starters , plus our top scorer . Our fringe players look stronger or as strong , but the problem is they're not fringe players now, they're starting

Saints maybe watertight but his agent and clubs interested in signing him won't be

You're right to write him off after one game , particularly as he's only got a scoring record of one in one wearing a saints shirt . Quite frankly he should have hit the ground running and bagged at least a hat-trick .

If he was a foreigner , we'd have binned him by now . Overhyped because he's home grown . The club have a blind spot because he's an academy product

Tadic & VvD were different class than the other starters . How the **** does JWP get anywhere near the side , he just not good enough . Too weak, too polite , what is he actually good at ? He's not even taking corners and free kicks now ( not that he was any good at them ) . He was truly dire today , like a little boy lost . The difference it made when he was swapped for a genuinely decent nipper was there for all to see .

JWP must be ****ing brilliant in preseason

Talk about rewriting history . Ranieri was not the ambitious choice , he was a busted flush having been sacked by Greece . This forum would have been in meltdown if we'd replaced Poch with him .

I think people are off their heads if they think we'd sign him , full stop . Doesn't appear to match our " fit and proper person " policy . Too much baggage , and overpriced for my liking

Whose loyal ? The supporters and that's it . Greece won the euros , did that make all their players irreplaceable at club level ? No it didn't . From what I've seen of him I'd swap either of England's right backs with Cedric , yet England lost to Icland . Take the emotion out of it and judge Jose as a 32 year old centre half . He's a good player , but entirely replaceable . Personally , I wouldn't want to now as its late in the day , but it's not the end of the world if he wants out .

As I said in the bits of the post you didn't quote " he was great in the euros ". But history is full of players doing great in particular tournaments . My judgement is based on watching him regularly and he's a good centre half , but he's got a lot of miles in his legs having played many lower league games . Just because he won the euros doesn't suddenly change that any more than it makes Cedric a better full back than Clynne in the English game .

Even if he wants out

If you take the emotion out of it, he's very replaceable . Great servant that he's been , he's shown signs of tipping over the top of the hill . I know he had a great Euros and he's " last man standing " from our league one days , but there's no point in getting all soppy and emotional about it . The cold hard business decision would be to line up a replacement and sell. From this summer on it'll be a diminishing return in terms of transfer fees and personally I can't see him getting better . I'm not a soft arse around the captaincy ( VvD or Davo are just as capable ) so it's down to football . In football terms , he's a good player with a lot of miles on his clock , at his peak value . If we can get rid at top dollar and get a younger man in for the same money and wages , I'd do it . Look at Baines, Everton didn't sell at the top of the market and they're getting less and less value for money out of him . He's not John Terry , he'll need replacing or face better competition than Yoshida within 18 months anyway . Don't let the euros confuse the issue , VvD is our number one and there's plenty younger players who could slot in next to him

unless he's a complete see you next Tuesday , he wouldn't post "we march on "if he was leaving

I'm not keen on it myself , I know Leicester won the league with 4 in there but personally I prefer 5 in midfield . If you want to play 2 upfront , then go with a back 3 . A 4-3-3 in possession becoming a 4-5-1 out of it would be my choice . I just worry that a 4-4-2 that has a number 10 and therefore only 1 CDM will leave us wide open imo . If he wants to play a 10 , then I'd want a 4-4-1-1 with 2 CDM's .
