Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd he's gone

Still early days for sure, but looking like the best CB I've seen in a Saints shirt.

Class stop there. Lovren is top quality.

Was the wanyama deal off then on due to agent disputes? Have I got this confused?

No apologies neccessary Bletch - I too was being flippant. And no, you are not scum.

Compassion, unless you disagree with us. Then you are scum.

Phew. Thank Christ the Saintsweb scouts have got this one covered.

Not really surprised, the boy is quality. Good on him.

...though it was technically released last year

Would love to know where QPR rank on here. Has Ben-Haim even played for them? Is he even a footballer?

Considering how GS wrote off Lovren and MP it gives me hope for sure.

Their stadium or training ground

That's been true for years, no sign of either changing. So how are they closer to getting to the CL than us? Or even maintaining a position above us? Because they were a massive club in the 80s? Or because their fans won't allow it?

Why are they? Their squad is at best, a bit better than ours. They have mediocre facilities, which they don't own, and no great academy. They are also reliant on selling their best players to buy new players. Saints have finances to spend with out selling. Top of the art facilities, and an academy widely touted as one of the best I the country.

How will they change what they have been trying to change for years, Kenrights lack of funds to push them on to where they want to be - the champions league.

Also the yanks fell out with each other, because they ****ed away too much dollar on Rafa. Not the fans. Just like United can't get rid of their yanks.

Lol the badge, that will stop us competing with them!

Look at the table compared to this time last season, I haven't but I would bet anything we are a lot closer in points and position to then - hence closing the gap. Christ this is so easy.

I almost feel bad talking to you. The fans cannot affect what the yanks at Anfield or Kenright does at Goodison. Those protests for Kenright to go for all those years did what exactly Baz? Keep clutching at them straws bud.

Haha same old, same old. You make this just too easy. How about Lovren, Wanyama, Clyne. What £22m spent on the three of them? We'd be on for double, if not more than that were we to sell them all in January. Funny J-Rod doesn't get some much stick of you now, having said a lot last season we would do well to get half back on him. Do you think every Everton player was a massive success? I can tell you it wasn't. And given their finances that will affect them more. Also, any idiot can see we have closed the gap on them, unless you are suggesting we will 8 places and 22 points behind them again.

Haha yeah, the fans have so much to do with what happens to a clubs fortunes right. Let's take a look at the best fans in the world just down the road.
