with that super judge of a GK Adkins I could well believe it.

tbh I'd forgotten all about him. Doh

he's a crap keeper.

Aren't there any wonder boys in the U21s to push him at bit ? Our academy really isn't anything special or so it would seem.Everything worth having manifests itself at a very young age and all the rest just seem to fade away.

just a handful of matches, players can always raise their game for short periods, that's why Arsenal get beaten by Blyth Spartans or something like that in the Cup and Bradford make the league cup final.But at the end of the day player quality dictates whether the player will be able to perform consistently over a 40 odd game season and when you have matches against sides who are probably below League 1 standard every other week you just can't tell.

Anyway ,probably needs to cut the cackle about Saints and spend more time securing the services of some decent bowlers for Hants. Just saying like cos Vince has just got smacked for 16 off an over.

Especially when he says he does.

think they do them up at the Uni med school annexe up Chilworth /Baddesley way. Doc's son used to post us all the salient facts but guess he's been gagged now.

but aren't all top clubs on the entire planet falling over themselves to give Celtic billions of £s for him? Wouldn't touch him with a barge pole, SPL is too weak to make any sort of judgement on it's players.

Hants bowlers now getting savaged as per usual, we need to break this 5th wicket partnership before too much damage is done. Can we sign any new bowlers or is there a TW in cricket now as well ?

Di Santo and Figueroa will be very much in demand.

Ah no, no miracle, we got smashed about and Kent declared at 300 odd for 7, now Hants are 20/2 in reply.McKenzie to the rescue again?

In the immortal words of Stiffler...f*ck no

Adidas are still willing to rook you 85 dollars for it though.

play has now started and Kent are at 172/5, if only we can finish them off quickly without any tail wagging at all we may well be in with a chance.

Tackles pretty well actually, or did the other day anyway.

so then are we still definitely signing someone tomorrow ? Don't mean future Yeovil players for the academy.

no Ramirez likes to play as the furthest back of the 3 actually. He likes to play deep and either burst forward or play the ball forward.Deep, like centre circle, he can see the whole pattern like a quarterback. We didn't know how to use him and wasted his energy trying to turn him into some sort of wide man. Lallana needs to be given just a back up role because Lallana and Gaston in the same side will never work.

He isn't exceptionally good and he gets sent off a lot. Has no control over his temper if I recall correctly.

Jos is a better player probably. Anyway if you're looking at defenders from Lyon Umtiti is the kiddy you want, good at CB and very very comfortable at LB as well. Only 19

Aulas and Cortese haggling over a player sale...should get done at about the turn of the next century then.With a bit of luck he should be available for his first sending off in a Saints shirt before retirement age...won't happen.

not that hard to find

Fenerbahce are only offering them 12 million euros so i expect Benfica would be quite pleased if we offered them 18 million € then.

Belhanda just isn't in the same class as Gaston, trouble is unless we can get all there is out of either of them the question becomes academic. We need better players in front of either of them to see their real utility. Gaston and Suarez, probably one of the most lethal combinations you'll ever see but until we have a player who can move and keep the ball like Suarez Gaston will never be seen in his best light. Belhanda has had a pretty poor season this year, take Giroud away from him and it's not the same player.

so if we were to sell Punch to Palace giving him a new contract in fact just had the effect of making us 3 million £ less whatever we may have paid him in terms of a signing bonus. That is called money for old rope, it would eventually have cost us very little and brought a fair bit in. Any player who can score goals in the PL should never be left in an out of contract situation unless he's on more salary than he's worth, which wouldn't be the case for Punch. Gaston had a great (half) game for Uruguay the other day, lovely diagonal ball that set up Suarez's goal plus some good tackling and ball recovery in midfield and a few really good runs and a couple of decent shots. If he has a decent game again tonight and shows up in the Conferderations Cup then we'll have no trouble getting a packet for him.I'd regret that because he is the type of player to take us forward but he needs ability,that we don't yet have, in front of him.
