Sour Mash

Who on here doesn't want any money spent? Stick the quotes up. And Of course Koeman does. Most managers want as much money to spend as possible. They're not directly concerned with long term financial planning.

What do you mean by that?

Why not? One can write off a player at any age based on an assessment of them. I don't think Sam Gallagher will make it as a Premier League player.

No, we're not. How much more are those players on than we're prepared to pay? Or don't you know?

How much are their wages compared to what we're prepared to pay?

What sort of players/price tags should we have been going for instead of those three cheap £10m players.

De Ridder

A midfielder that scores 15 goals and is a leader in the middle of the park is Steven Gerrard in his prime.

How many cheap options from the Dutch League have we bought? One?

How can it be a one off? Either we're fit enough or we're not.

What sort of weirdo modern football fan gives his team a half term grade.

You've got to be kidding? Go back and watch the Arsenal game and the comments, in particular from Arsenal, afterwards.

Frustrating game. We were the better side in the main, just allow sloppyness at times, when we need to be more clinical throughout the pitch. We really need a settled back 4/5/6, can't see that happening this season and it'll cost us. I think we'll beat Norwich.

Pellè was in a box at the back of the Itchen North.

Fluke really.

Absolutely ridiculous that.

What is Koeman's record against Wenger looking like?

Not a bad win. Would have been better if Harrisson Reed & Sam Gallagher were playing and Pochettino was our manager though.

They beat them, that's the only thing relevant. Apologies for confusing you.

Not relevant to the post I was quoting. Must have also missed them qualifying from their Champions League group.

He said something similar last year, didn't do us too much harm then.

Yeah, they'd only beaten those minnows Arsenal 2-0 in their previous home league game.

My figures weren't an educated estimate, that was the point. Glad we've proven how much money we've saved out of the Euro though.

Your figures are out of date. Unlucky.
