Get ta fuck. Started walking towards the Itchen hospitality at one point. Heads completely gone since the telling off. Played on that ‘concussion’ tenfold. -

Moussa not fancied it since the bollocking. Played on it massively to come off. -
I'm gonna (slightly) play devils advocate on this. I can't argue your point about the bid from our perspective and it's value but Liam Delap is rated very highly in football circles. You have to be slightly careful when it comes to gauging a players potential ability when using their early career loans as a marker. Harry Kane, is arguably the best example of this. Liam was (still is) very highly thought of by Manchester City and England. I won't lie, I was really pleased to hear we were in for him (perhaps not for the rumoured value the fee was reported) but nonetheless a player I feel will go on and have a decent Premier League career. If it was say a £10-15 million deal then fair enough but as you rightly highlight, at £25+ there was more 'proven' players worth pursuing. There's a young player on loan at the club I work for now, he's very highly rated by his parent club in the PL and hasn't quite hit it off here. There's always a number of variables to loans not working out and I'd bet my bottom dollar if the lad played 10 games for his parent club right now, he'd have scored more goals than his current football league club - most likely due to the standard and frequency of service better players would provide him (his current club in possession model doesn't perhaps suit his profile). I would've liked to have seen us make a move for Beto if this rumoured £25million is available.

Na, he's shite.

Cba to go through the thread so apologies if already posted, nice little stat that x3 world cup captains are ex Saints players. Highlighted on one of the cartoon graphics on FIFA's instagram account.

4-2

4-1 Saints down to 10 men. Fail to see or hear the mentoring Lancashire offers the group

Very strong Pompey team and it’s being led by Danny Cowley. Should be fun, I’m already being given shit from Saints fans, can’t exactly shout I’m one of you!

Given how utterly miserable it is at the moment, let's have some nostalgia. You only get one vote and the game is simple, pick one player who on their initial performance/debut/early form had a bit about them and you thought/hoped would turn out to be a strong performer for Saints only to leave on a free two years later? I remember a very decent performance from Jamie White one game in the Championship (I think) however, ultimate award goes to Leandre Griffit. Thought he'd be the new Henry.

ANY STREAMS?

Shit out of luck with streams, non working including the 'motor news' one. Please help x

Can someone be that guy that posts a decent stream instead of me filtering through the crap ones. Ta

Game will be at FP. Won't be until after September.

Can support a future King with that kind of decision making.

I cant post the photo. Go to their account. Go to the third photo and swipe right.

Photo of Edozie in Saints kit at Staplewood on Rising Ballers Instagram account. Look legit.

Weren't we sniffing around Iheanacho before his move to Leicester or am I confused with a previous FM save? Would be an interesting signing addition and perhaps the 'reset' he needs. Another one I would put 2+2 together to make 8 with is Callum Wilson, I noticed he was doing a lot of conditioning/1-1 work back in Dorset with Matt Ritchie and Ryan Fraser (Yes MLG I know they all played for Bournemouth). Other than that, I have zero clue who is this mystery PL striker could bt? Ayoze Perez Neal Maupay Agustin Delgado?
-
What's the reaction of the crowd like? I canny hear a thing as my stream is about as useful as Jan Bednarek.
-
My stream has been utter pony, constant buffering. By the way, how fucking boring are we? Look more lacklustre than the days of Peter Madsen.
-
Doesn't fit the direction of our current transfer policy but I wonder if we would consider Belotti? I still feel Cornet should be a player we need to seriously consider alongside a second striker... imagine this position will be looked at if one of or a couple from Theo/Redmond/Moussa move on.

Had no idea! Surprised by that.

This man wins.
