I think the other strongest candidate was his Mane / Ali Dia effort.

Leadership vacuum. Who can sack him and do they give a ****?

He was a relative bright spot. Looked like he has a decent first touch, physical presence, worked hard and whilst he doesn't have genuine "pace" he was fairly mobile and not slow. He should do well in the Championship.

It's an away game, dinlow.

I'm quite annoyed. How's everyone else doing?

Yeah, that's why we we're signing a centre back.... Oh.

PellegrinoOut!

I dunno???

Just got 50/1 on Saints/Brighton HT/FT. Will soften the blow somewhat should that happen!

Utterly awful, clearly. And that's without even factoring in the lack of manager transfer. There is a huge leadership vacuum at the club, it seems.

More concerned about the centre back situation than if we sign this bloke anyway.

He knows **** all.

Hopefully he can be as hilarious as this: [video=youtube_share;13zI99hqwHU]

Get in!

Agreed.

(Rumour quotient / number of interested clubs) * relative spending power * dodgy foreigner weighting + sfc social media posts = 60 - 65%

Agree, other than with respect to centre back where we're pretty weak.

I thought there was a release clause? Didn't "the Russians" already confirm that?

Like "scones".

Yeah, good point. Instead of dithering we should be signing every striker who might score against us. ****ing genius plan, mate. Can't believe the club haven't thought of that.

No, different types of hair.

And if he spends half the time claiming god has told him not to play then they will be a waste of money.

Quite a few selection dilemmas for this one. Yoshida back in? Who plays left back if no Bertrand? Boufal or JWP (assuming we stick with a midfield 3 of Hoj, Rom and Lem) Long, Gabbi or Colonel Carillo up front?

Puel's points per game record would have us 8th again in the current table. With the top clubs being collectively stronger than they have been for years it's going to be hard to get into the high 50s again.
