This is what I was hoping might happen, Gabbi infront of a creative Boufal, playing him in. Boufal will have to start looking up more though, rather than worrying what his feet are doing.

Ok, a foetus might be able to shoot better than Stevo, but can it defend?

...

Cheers. Don't make a stranger of yourself!

Maybe just one more season here. Needs to show some loyalty imo.

Yep, he needs to hit the ground running.

Hopefully he'll put some serious effort into the rest of the season, rather than slacking during games like Mane did. Despite what's happened, the next few weeks will determine what sort of character he is in my eyes. The amount of time off he's had at the club's expense, he owes us. If he performs I'm happy to get behind him, after a game or two.

Agree, certainly more so than Tadic. And I don't mind that he has a go from time to time, even if it appears against the odds.

After the window closes, and he's still here, he'd better start performing on the pitch after all this time or I will bloody well shout at him.

Funny to see Crouchy's still knocking them in.

Anyone got a link for the Mayweather fight? Can't get much here.

I've always thought he looks p*ssed off but his performances lately have been lacklustre. Need to have a word with him, get him back on track.

Lamina getting forward a lot more second half too, in the box a couple of times.

Saints chances as rare as a Bertrand smile.

If Cedric could cross he'd be a good player.

Knew it would be hard today. Huddersfield press well and attack well.

Yes, he often looks excellent going forward. Reckon he'd make a good centre midfielder.

Ha ha, nice. Not the last unfortunately. Should be a good game today, I think they'll come at us. I've predicted 1-1.

Haven't seen them but apparently they play quite high up the pitch and like to press? Would prefer that for us than them parking the bus and relying on breaks and set pieces.

There were times last season when he was very poor and struggled to save anything. Anything low was in, and some very odd and costly set piece decisions. I do wonder if he was nursing an injury and if so, hopefully all that's in the past.

We had the best of him, over several years, and made good money in the transfer. Emotions aside, really it was very good business for us, would have been gilt-edged if it wasn't for the bad timing of the VVD hacking.

Yeah I wouldn't mind trying that. When was the last time we played a 4-4-2?

Laughed at that bald bloke in the Northam getting a hand shake from Gabbi after he scored.
