i think the "says that he is very very good" bit swings it for me

I think they might in the summer, would be foolish to at present so given that it's probably possible

as they would both be initially loans I bloody well would get both, nothing to lose that way !

Gardos looked on Saturday what he is, a player who hasnt played a top level game for over two years. He was surrounded by kids and reserves so was on a hiding to nothing. He didnt fill me with optimism that he will come good however but he cant be judged an that farce of a match really.

It is always like this when its an Italian club involved, for anyone, not just us !

so you are happy with Martina as back up RB ? i would say left back was the least of our concerns in the defensive department.

oh that's a surprise/worry

Totally, and if VVD is out for a long time then get two, doesnt matter if they are loan players or a signing and a loan. The truth of the matter is we have Yoshida then after that we are literally hanging on a wing and a prayer. You only need compare Stephens v Liverpool then Stephens v Arsenal to see that.

on Solent he basically took full responsibility for the defeat. He then rabbited on for another 5 mins saying virtually nothing but he did Erie at that is was on his shoulders.

After this coming week there should be no reason to rotate the squad and Puel must play his strongest team every single match. We have just League matches at mostly a rate of one a week, we have a 15 day rest before the EFL Cup which may prove to be too long so there is absolutely no excuse to carry on with 5,6,7 changes every match. It will be interesting to see what happens from now on.....

Sorry to say but I hope I never have to see him in a Saints shirt again. He was great at Barnsley last season and that's about right for him, he's never impressed me in the slightest.

arrogance yes, stupidity definitely. They had one chance left of winning anything and this was it. They play once a week, have no chance of winning the league so are left scrambling madly for 4th in the league. Good luck with that

No pressure on Mane when he comes back then

Is there a parent company set up and then within that a Southampton Football Club company or is everything - club, stadium, holdings etc just under the one name ?

what you do in your private life is you affair, stick to topic please

a stake ? not a takeover ?

That is by far and away THE picture of the season, just a shame Nivea Boy isn't anywhere to be seen

After seeing how fkin cocky and full of himself Clippity Klopp was in that interview on Sky I hope we wipe the smile off his arrogant face !

Looks like JWP played himself in ahead of Clasie after Sunday. Hope he can do it two matches running.

seconded......**** !

We need to score, if VVD was fit then I would fancy our chances of keeping them out, without him I just can't see it. So score and they need three, Swansea managed three against them, surely we will create chances, be a great time to take a couple of them !

He's gonna have to, good luck to him !

Fantastic news

is this getting like the ear lobe thing ? The highlights on Sky show him clearly rubbing his ankle, the top of it at that, not his foot ! I think he will be out tomorrow night, we are seldom that lucky, especially in semi finals and against them !

I have considered that and I also considered the thought they could have kept Fonte another week, but no, we are left short potentially just before the biggest match of the season. Just brilliant.
