You're cute. You would make a fantastic 'soccer mom'. "YAY, let's go you SAINTS, WOOO". The point is you simple minded rake, *your post has minimal relevance in relation to our current events/results. *The FA Cup is long gone and we haven't recently been knocked out so why are you even thinking about it? *It's a ridiculously obvious and unnecessary statement to make, of course we would ALL like to see us win the trophy (or any trophy for that matter). *Apparently as you cannot comprehend anything simple, I am not trolling, just mocking your incredibly random and pointless thread.

No, no, you're right. It would be nice to do this again and thank you so much for using a video re-iterate your point. May I go one better for the even more simple souls such as Da Kraken and start a thread about doing something new; LeT'S WiN DA leaGUe!!!! The fact you cannot process and identify why I am mocking this utterly pointless thread (regardless of the nice intent) then thank you, now you are my favourite 'nice but dim' poster. Go on, nibble.

If that's the theme of your post, you may as well add videos of us; Beating Pompey Playing in Europe Beating Man U 6-3 As I would like to do them all over again too, that'll be rather nice.

One thing I have noticed from todays game (watching on Sky) is the intensity of our pressing in groups has dramatically reduced along with the engaging of the opposition ball carrier in their defensive third. Anybody else notice this? Was today a one off?

Some of the comments regarding JWP are embarrassing. He hasn't gone backwards, he hasn't gone side-ways either he just hasn't 'excelled' at the speed as the majority of people expected because of the initial hype around him. His development is just fine for somebody in and out of the side, playing in three different ROLES and positions (yes there is a difference), aged 19. Settle down when he plays a stormer and don't squinny when he has a stinker.

Erm kid, we aren't in the FA Cup.

Thanks Hutch, interesting and never before seen this.

Start with a perfect hat trick today then Rickie.

Rather interesting on here; Nicola is receiving far too much praise from a number of you and not enough from the other half. He did an ok job. I mean if we all had a short back and sides, custom tailored suits , somebody else's £50m debit card and enough testosterone to fuel a Golds Gym we all would of done a decent job. He came from a banking & investments background, no previous in sport commercial deals. The fact he was abrupt, direct and wanted the best for this club, people took to him especially after other clubs tried to exploit our previous financial surroundings & he ****ed them off. He genuinely wanted us/him to be the best, pioneers in everything we do but clearly failed with empathy and man management of staff (admin,H.R) yet excelled when dealing with players? The reason Cortese won't go down as a great chairman is simple, his own personal drive and defiance combined with inconsistency across the spectrum. The reason Cortese won't go down as a **** chairman is simple, his own personal drive for us to be the best was genuine.

I miss Nicola.

I watched this, he was a ****ing nutter. -
The logic is rather simple. The club is in a transitional period off the pitch and the team hasn't met the expectations publically stated in relation to the signings made. For us to make predictions or formative assessment of previous patterns makes minimal sense. We have no idea on the management structure, KL's level of inclusion and simply its a World Cup year, which changes the market massively. We will have a current plan a, its a given but there are too many factors for us to have any idea what may/may not happen this summer: Shaw/Lallana may excel at the WC (if selected), we then may receive huge offers from huge clubs. Dani Osvaldo's situation. Pochettino could leave. Liebherr may sell up. FFP regulations (which will be heavily influenced by the first two points).

I'm sorry but if anybody has written a serious answer/figures or targets you are a tool.

I'm here (Wembley) tonight in a work capacity.

For those who want Florres at Saints, you are officially not allowed to post on this website anymore.

How would you feel if MoPo gave players who could be lining up in the Brazil (all nationalities) an early break/rested for the last few games of the season? Especially if we remain in 9th without the possibility of moving up or down the league with two/three games to go. You may scoff at the idea...
-
I think its more of the case that Osvaldo's replacement couldn't be found or a deal worked on in January wasn't viable and that Gallagher had caught their eye at that given time. More of a "quick fix" than immediate replacement. I can see at U21/U18 level why he is highly rated in house but it is evident he struggles at PL level which we can all respect and appreciate bearing in mind he's recently turned 18.Had Osvaldo worked or a replacement brought in, I do no think we would of seen as much. He will be on loan to a Championship side next season.

Really unimpressed with second half performance in spite of the quality Liverpool posses. Lack of forward runners when we have had a ball carrier heading towards goal. Chambers has done very well . Easily one of Fonte's worst performances in a Saints shirt.
-
Gaston on for Davis.
-
We will have some success with more frequent diagonal crosses from Chambers in advance position. Lambert playing behind the shoulder of Flanigan when delivered might do the trick. Something we've deployed before (vs Rafael, Clyne when at Palace).
-
Settle down mong brigade Rickie has done ok, not awful.
-
He may prove to be a ***** at times but Glasgow does make a very good point regarding the lack of bodies in and around the 18 yard area when we are in wide areas.

6th time a Saints player has lost their footing.
