honestly should have been drafted to saints squad as a commercial decision - shirt sales through the roof

didn't charlie austin and adam armstrong both score on debut?

I remember seeing him score on debut, absolutely clinical in a 1-on-1 and thinking, "we're going to be ok after all"........ we weren't. Consistency and decision making clearly the two things preventing him becoming a top flight striker. Obviously lumping long balls to him would never work but nobody would care about his size if he scored even half the sitters he missed. Interesting summer window coming up!

he can't seem to formulate sentences quick enough for live commentary. unfortunately for him he sounds like Porky Pig when he gets excited. He's generally better on the post match podcast. I like him, I hate it when you watch other coverage and there's a biased ex player from the other team. At least he cares (and rips on Baz).

Feels good to score a shitty scrappy goal, don’t do it often enough

Only just watched the extended highlights. 3 main takeaways for me were: 1. Manning is shit 2. How the fk have we not scored some of those chances 3. Jo Tessem saying when Stewart scores "Finally, someone gets in front of or behind a defender!"

Sometimes when that feeling sets in is just when Saints are most likely to cruelly offer you something that keeps leading you on..... 5-0 incoming

ahh right right, that makes sense. I am not across fotmob, I was just trying to see what minute he got subbed and saw that graphic so chucked it in. Thanks for clarifying!

For anyone interested (not many), he started for Hamburg, played 78 minutes, the team lost and he was the lowest ranked player on fotmob. I want him to do well so they want to keep him permanently. I was just curious so I thought I'd share, and look forward to now forgetting about him for the rest of the season.

THB also seems to be our main goal threat the last few weeks

I don't speak German, can anyone translate 'massifwankë'?

there is a fairly large body of evidence that says putting stephens, manning and downes on the pitch together is a bad idea

Manning would pass back to the CBs from the penalty spot (if he ever found his way up that far)

where oh where did our rapid end to end passing go. was it all a dream?

Presumably we're paying them $7m?
