Watching Final Score and Steve Claridge made a good point that we are playing better than Liverpool Everton and Tottenham so why should we not finish in the top six

What a Knob

Sorry made a mistake seems to be eight now Shame we sold those players in the summer

Just got home after a nice lunch and a few pints Fantastic cant believe it

Interesting from Robbie Savage http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29469397

What agenda?

What really has interested me in the whole saga is that people have been so ready to insult the people running the club and disbelieving what they said.

I think there was no Press Conference today as Ron K had to take his wife shopping

Hope to have Forster Clyne and Bertrand Called up as they are playing regularly Be surprised if Lambert and Shaw were but not sure about Lallana who seems to be a bit player at Liverpool .

I am not sure that he is a good manager he is a good coach but management includes other things like Dealing with the Press Dealing with the Fans Involving all the players etc I just like Koeman he comes across well

What does the book say about Graham Lovett who played on Loan from WBA after breaking his leg the worst player I have ever seen in Saints colours mind you I only saw him once

Excellent season apart from the Royal London Cup difficult for me to come up with a player of the season with so many to chose from but I think I am going for Sean Ervine for his two recent centuries and his general all round ability but equally I could have gone for Jimmy Adams Will Smith James Vince Kyle Abbott or James Tomlinson. Really glad to have overtaken Worcestershire who we beat comprehensively at Portsmouth in 1974 only for them to beat us to the Championship as I think we were unable to play our last five days of cricket due to bad weather and did not gain any bonus points. For the future I think we need a really good number three batsmen another seamer possibly Kyle Abbott not sure what has happened to Danny Briggs and who to have as wicket keeper

Yes I did We had a strong team they had a weak defence we were in form and had not won there for over 25 years They had a long run of winning in the Cup which was likely to come to an end Stoke is something different a bit of an anticlimax but of course we could win but would not put any money on it

I am 68 years old been supporting the Saints for over fifty years so experience tells me that we are just going to consolidate our position as a top ten club to progress higher we need to beat the elite clubs regularly. Dont really see that happening Doubt we will beat Stoke in the League Cup

I agree with most on that we are just going to consolidate our position as a top ten club to progress higher we need to beat the elite clubs regularly. Dont really see that happening Doubt we will beat Stoke in the League Cup

Yes first time for quite along time getting rather nervous Cannot believe 5 wins in a row could be achieved

And what about you I do not remember you being very calm about the situation in the Summer but of course I maybe wrong and got you mixed up with someone else.

Of course you can predict after five games but it will not be so accurate as after twenty games or after thirty games All I know is that our results against Liverpool West Ham WBA Newcastle are not as good as they were last season so there is a possibility that we may not do as well as last year but after ten games we will have a clearer picture I have no idea where we will finish but the usual suspects will probably finish in the top 7 and we will be 8 to 13 What about you

I think what he is saying makes sense if we sell five players next season it is unlikely that we will get in good replacements Just say no to tranfer requests something most posters were saying in the Summer although we are second we have not beaten a team which has recently played in the CL

You are right after five games we have 10 points But last season against Liverpool West Brom West Ham Newcastle and Swansea we got 12 Points this season we have only got 10 so we are minus 2 points

AND WE ARE SECOND IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE

Dont think I have felt so good about the Saints since we got to the Cup Final in 2003 especially after the gloom and doom of July I think Katarina Reed and Krugeur should be congratulated in selling five players for nearly £100k and replacing them with possibly better players Koeman may one day become the best manager we ever had if things work out really well he is certainly the dogs bollix at the moment

Dont seem to be missing the defectors Defence seems very strong in fact has conceeded less goals than anyone else except for Man U who have conceeded 3 the same as us. Midfield keep scoring so looking forward to Arsenal game. Overall I think Koeman is an improvement on Poch

If there were turnouts of 80%+ in the UK the Tories would be worried as the poor hardly vote and I doubt they would vote for them

Need to bat for another 24 overs or so
