It was obvious Costa would bully our central defenders tonight, and he did. I bet he wouldn't have got away with it with Caceres. Guess we will never know now.

He refers to Redmond as having 'one of his spats' as if it's a regular occurrence. Having seen the way Redmond blames everyone else on the pitch when he ****s up I would love to know how often these occur.

if you are gonna play Boufal and Tadic in the same team do it at home not away to bloody Chelsea, we will get murdered !

the ref will be the least of our worries Tuesday night.

it was bloody awful apart from a decent run in his first season. Jeff Stelling's rant about him getting the hell out of Hartlepool today made me remember similar thoughts just before those terrible accusations were made against him.

Jay looks more than just a player out of form though, sad to say that injury has taken something away from him, he just looks immobile.

yep

Costa will totally bully Stephens, I really do think Puel might just give Caceres a run out in this one.

Same mistake with the subs as the Bournemouth game. Brings on Boufal for JWP, gives up the midfield in doing so and get over run. Got away with it against the Cherry Pips but you don't against a decent side like City.

He's been better than expected but i wouldnt go that far, not even "ish" !

Play what side he likes as far as I'm concerned as long as we put out the strongest team possible against Man United !

must be injured again, i hadnt even noticed him go missing from the bench tbh :-)

Funny how people look at things differently. When I first saw their TV ad that's currently running my first reaction was that they must be pretty proud to sponsor Saints if they are putting representation of the club in their marketing strategy.

As long as his freedom to burst forward doesnt include taking it upon himself to shoot from distance

Have to agree, if Gabbi isn't fit it has to be Long, no way should Jay Rod start I'm afraid.

the fact that **** Adrian Chiles supports them tells you everything you need to know about "the Albion" Great result and even the most pessimistic must admit we are safe

yep, he misses on purpose don't ya know

When Gabby got injured they said it would be 3-4 weeks and so it's proved. Hopefully fit for Man City next week.

Actually he isn't mis-reading anything. They have made a real pigs breakfast of the away matches where some list Saints score first (West Ham 3-0) and others list it second (Sunderland 0-4)

said the same, I'm sure we have had shorter close seasons than this

Well I thought generally it was light hearted banter regarding trying to listen to Puel for half an hour but some people seem to have got very upset so ******** basically !!

harsh but very true

yeah exactly, a former player used to kiss the badge and that also meant **** all in the end.

Problem with Tadic is that he plays when he wants to, no consistency whatsoever. Having said that there is always the chance of that killer ball that will create a chance. I just wonder if this has cropped up because he knows that Puel is going to prefer Boufal next season having paid all that money for him and that there isnt much chance of playing both in the same team given they are what used to be called "luxury" players ?

He did yes
