Again I think the young players are good enough but not being coached properly. You put a promising youngster with Thiery Henry or Norman Hunter for 6 months and I see which one brings them through the best?

Ha ha, probably miss that as well.

Think it's time the owners/chairman/Reed whoever, needs to take a serious look at our club and the way it's going forward right now. Is it the formations? The coaching staff? Problem scoring goals at any level? IMHO we should be contacting top ex premiership pro's and getting them on board to work with Pellegrino and offloading some of the rubbish we are currently employing.

Disagree. We have some talented players but they have not been coached properly.

You're right, we have too many bad eggs together that is killing the half decent ones that can play. Are the management staff able to improve them on the training ground? That lies the problem because I dont think they do.

Spare yourself m8, It will end 0-0.

ha ha seriously why don't we put the robot in goal against the palace, moves better than our useless lump of ****.

Look Forster is ****ing **** and has been for a while now. Its going to cost Pellegrino his job soon if he does not replace this useless tub of lard from his duties of trying to impersonate a goalkeeper. The only reason I can think of why he is selected is because he must not be conceding any goals in training. But saying that I reckon I could perched my budgie on our goal line and he would not concede with our lame attacking force.

Even he would miss the way things are going for us.

Ha ha love it.

Pellegrino needs to round the players up on Monday and ask them individualy what position on the pitch does each one prefer to play in and what formation. Gabby 'Striker boss in a 4-4-2' Austin 'Striker in a 4-4-2' Forster 'Goalkeeper in a ....(gets interrupted by the whole squad laughing)

Its called the 'Southampton way.' Huff, Puff and score **** all. Can't wait for the September goals of the month competition where they will probably end up with some under 18's tap ins or even funnier some goals scored in training.

Poor sky chosing this **** game, its got 0-0 written all over it. I have no idea what the odds are but I'm going to find a bookies and stick £100 on a NIL NIL. Bloody easy money I say?

Well said and and it's scary how **** we've become.

How does someone scuff a shot so badly like he did? I've been playing football for 20 years and not once could I miss it so badly. What the **** are we teaching them in training?

What half decent manager will want to manage SouthamptoNIL now?

Ha ha Simo, probably is.

I find it so sad that Coultinho was in tears last night before the Brazil game. How much of a prison sentence does he need to serve before leaving the dippers?

Some great players moved to new clubs yesterday and it's a surprise we never went for any of them. If WBA and Swansea can sign them then I'm surprised we couldn't IMHO.

Let him wear a Liverpool shirt under his Saints one and make sure us fans song 'Never walk alone' for him.

Heard Brentford were a keeper short so we lent them Forster. I expect some of our players thought Xmas came early.

I would be very happy to get Walcott plus Ath Madrid player in and VVD gone for sure. Would prefer VVD to Arsenal rather than Liverpool. This would mean having three new players to join an already strong squad. I expect Long will be gone too for 18m for the toons.

I suppose the situation is we are using VVD as a carrot to get the best deal for the club. Options: (1) Arsenal bid 50m plus Walcott or Lazzette (We've got funds for another exciting player) (2) Chelsea bid 50m plus Remy (Got funds for another exciting player) (3) Liverpool offer 70m (Gives us the extra money to purchases two great players elsewhere) (4) Purchasing the one/two great players we want elsewhere is proving difficult so do I sell VVD to Chelsea/Arsenal/Liverpool as the fans won't be happy. (5) Let's keep VVD and hope he does not continue to sulk and strike and let's get that cheap striker/winger in. Basically - VVD goes we get two players in. If he stays we buy a cheapish striker/winger.

Does anyone at the club score goals anymore?

I reckon it's all about a player going to there and one going here before ours comes here. Oxy to Chelsea? Costa to Ath Madrid? Someone from there to us?
