Although people are pointing out our weak defence last time we played in this division, I don't think the standards of players was that great back then. Today the defence needs to be good as I believe the championship is the strongest it's ever been now.
-
You need to read the thread again Turkish. Attacking/Offence/Attacking half/Opposition's half/Going forward.......Whatever people what to call it - We have the best force IMHO as it's exciting and not predictable as Oxy goes either flank and inside out, Lallana will twist you all day, Lambert great free kick, knock downs, hold ups, poachers etc.....I could go on with Guly, Barnard, Connolly, Chaplow, Spider, Hammond and Cork. Just remember we held our own against Premiership opposition last season during our cup run so that does suggest they can mix it in this league at least.
-
I do believe it would help us more in this league as an attacking force because we would have less 'parking the bus' however a few teams last season hit us hard on the break and I know the quality will be better coming at us.
-
Correct Wes, I'm glad none of the above are managers if they think attacking force is 2 people ;-) Indeed attacking is wing backs, midfielder runners, wingers and attackers. yes I believe we have the best because Lallana and Oxy will rip full backs all day long. Now let's get back to the defence! I see Harding has been linked elsewhere? Dickson IMHO is not strong enough as a defending left back but great as a wing back who tear's forward.
-
Cork could be that link we need as a holding player who will organise those that are not picking up the runners.
-
I believe we have the strongest attacking force in this division and it could get even better with another coming in. The problem we will have this season is our defence, although it showed on paper as being the best last season the team sometimes got over run by some lesser teams. The defence is not just about the back five but also the offence players form part of it, however I really hope that the club get another CB and a true loud mouth leader too. IMHO we need to dominate more this season and if so I see us knocking on the playoffs door.

Phew that was it. It would get the northam rocking.

Jack Cork! I can't remember who sang the tune though.

Jason Puncheon Wants to move down the M27
Pilchards replied to Secret Site Agent's topic in The Saints
I think he meant Paul Walsh. -
Well said Yorkie! I hope some of the current players are telling others it's a great place to be in the hope it might attract a player that Adkins might be interested in.

That Wayne Thomas goal was class as I was stood behind the swerve, my kids made me send a text to Solent saying a 'barker of a goal' after putting our three dogs name down at the end. Got read out with a giggle. Crazy I know!

Niemi triple save vs Vierra @ St Marys.
-
Why? Did Manchester City also buy several players last season but failed badly if you consider what was spent? Stability is the best thing as it inherits a winning team. Blackpool, S****horpe & Norwich will be an example of that. I put leicester in the top 6 but no way will they get auto's.
-
They have put up a make shift and the building is in the proccess of being rebuilt to our satisfactory.
-
What I do know is Sunderland are so much stronger now after selling Henderson and getting in 4 very good players. What's scary is they still have more change to spend. Oxy would improve us if we was smart with it. 8m on players and 2m invest in the academy.
-
Look it's about money, gimme 20k a week and I will join any club as I love money more than playing every week. That's a footballer's attitude!
-
I will come back in a minute then with my comments ;-)
-
Well he has your season ticket money for starters. To me that means nothing, If you sell Oxy then you have money, It's what you do with it that counts.
-
In July the club reveal 6 new players that will not be average players but ones that are classed as star players. Stars in stripes now get your bloody shirts and support the saints. Out Oxy & In comes Riise, Rivas, Cork, Woodgate, Pilkington & Holt. That will get us premiership footy.
-
Sharp, Maynard, CMS - who would be best for saints?
Pilchards replied to NickG's topic in The Saints
Put a touch more in and you get Holt. -
Knew a player once and it goes like this. Been in contact with someone at Spurs and they are interested in signing you? But I'm not looking to leave. IMHO If a player does not leave a club then an agent does not make a cut. They can be scum.

Udders official website: Oscar Goburn will dominate league one as his constant skills & running will have the opposition chasing circles for him, Oscar will be our global warrior that will take us back to the premiership. Who writes this crap?
-
Oscar Gobern SIGNS 20 year-old Southampton youth product Had offers from Southampton, Swansea, other Premiership clubs but chose Town to get games Hahaha Premiership offers but he chose the Udders, **** off the official website like someone wanted him in the premiership, more likely wanted to demonstrate a flying side kick in my class.
-
He will soon be leaving in a Taxi as he's a *****!
-
If we sign some proven premiership players then we have found our stars. ;-)
