Suggest you are in a massive minority and I consider myself old school who still love the cups. Riches and exposure (if we won the qualifying round) woudl be incredible although I am being hypothetical as do not think it is realistic.

I was not happy with approach to League cup but would definitely swap a victory in that for 4th which would mean a European adventure.

Same old repetitive off thread discussion I see. Just waiting for Turkish's oh so funny daily mail line when he awakes. We should be discussing mattresses, better buses and poch's perfect English. Fact it shows we are improving doesn't mean we have to always compare to other clubs FFS and clear that we are doing something right.

And fckin MOPO in title thread. Only nobbers on here would refer to him as that.

Makes me laugh how much outrage at one comment and all the people jumped on him as if it representative of many people's views. Clearly it is not but I am more amazed at how many people leap on such things as if it needs disputing.

I knew exactly what you meant if that helps

Another nice trip down memory lane http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/southampton/10468535/Flashback-When-Southampton-visit-Arsenal-on-Saturday-they-can-rekindle-memories-of-Keegan-Ball-and-Channon.html

So predictable http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25012699

Sales is often a far from honest job. Definitely one that involves compromising and being pleasant to those you deal with.

I only came on here to see what Lawro had to say and what we said about him. Seems like he hasn't done them yet. Predict he predicts 2-0

Cor bet you must be getting excited already then? And don't spoil your daughter young man

Is it true Turkish is a paper salesman or is that just a in-joke? Please let it be true

Don't forget that it is very funny though. Oh how they marvel as Tom, pity poor Tom, gets drawn in.

And bet 95% of replies were along the lines of 'well done Luke my son'

Was he slammed though? Problem with any footballer on Twitter is that they get slaughtered by fans of other clubs whatever they post regardless of content. As someone said earlier amazing they stick with it. Media just trawl Twitter for stories and most of time hardly worth an eyebrow being raised.

Surprised at how balanced people have been and so little clamour for more Saints players. Still predicting squad is pretty straightforward at mo but form and injuries over next 6 months will play a massive part. Cole could recapture form and will be a no brainer for selection or equally remain out if favour with Mourinho and so be hard to justify. I would say no chance Andy Carroll is going though unless back very soon and in form of his life immediately. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is two of them to be sure

I feel dirty after I have been on this site for too long. Seems a few can't get enough and regularly go to forums of other clubs. What is the matter with you? Is it an addiction to wanting to find out what other people of no consequence think? Although confess I did follow a link to Stoke the other day but hope I am not on a slippery slope

Man City have now lost four times as many league games as us and conceded over twice the amount of goals

It will always be brilliant if you discount league draws

I would say a fair bit more than this now which estimates £73 million http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/fc-southampton/kader/verein_180.html JWP less than £2 mill? Don't think so!

Nice to here such honest comments. Was saying nice things before the game and doing a decent job at Hull for a dinner lady

Obviously hope for positive results in both games but enjoy more against Chelsea. Classless club in so many ways and Mourinho's arrogance just makes them more odious. Let's hope he is celebrating his unbeaten home record 2 weeks today

Can say with confidence he will go 2-0 and 2-0 He never predicts any defeats for big 6 unless they play each other and then mostly goes for 1-1.
