Oh thats good.

lol

Lol, the truth always hurts

Decent man, although I do remember him selecting Geoff Thomas and Carlton Palmer instead of MLT when England manager. RIP

i could be wrong on this but I thought Sakho was had been taking medicine he shouldnt have. I think it bulked him up and so may not be the same player if he lost his strength

Ill get my daughtr to ask him as she knows him,Dappy that is lol

I forget you dont get humour

Is it just me but Fazer seemed more dominting of his area last night? On 2 or 3 occasions he came and took a cross. Very pleasing and made the night much calmer for our defence. Coincidence perhaps,but if they have been working on his work taking crosses all the better

it is typical of the life of a Saints fan, we had the only billionaire owner of a football club who wanted to make money and now a Chinese owner who seems pretty potless in real terms

As per Pass the Dutchie 'He could theoretically be back. Their final group game is the 23rd. If he's suspended for that game and Senegal without a hope to qualify for the quarter finals, he'd fly home early I assume.' So perhaps you can get off that bloody high horse, he like Boufal might get injured and so may not play

i think most of us have been surprised how little impact he made at Utd.

Amen to that

Henderson and perhaps Mane may return for them, that would make them stronger but it is in our hands now, but we will need to score at least one in my opinion

i was in the Terry Piane suite last night and it was aqnnounced that Boufal is returning from ther ANC cup with an injury that will keep him out for 3 weeks

basing it on what I heard from someone who worked at SMS when he first arrived

in life you see people get top top jobs and just don't see why, They just seem to know how and who to suck up to. IMO Reed is one of those and I suspect a horrible man to work under. Arrogant smug and full of himself

A lot of it is true but a lot is just a wind up. He is right that the fans are accepting how the club banks the money on the pretence of trying to be reall y successful. As for the atmosphere at games, the Israeli game was a nervous affair, but the Inter game there was a lot fo noise. Yes it was Inter Milan but they are not the force with world names as they were which makes it a lot less of a scalp than at others periods in time

I wonder if going to Anfield having to win by one goal may be our best bet to go through

RK didn't want to take him , tells you something. Also as he came from the england set up probably made people think it was a coup

but I was under the impression that you said Reed had not said about CL football? Les has repositioned himself and Fred was correct you cant then erase the statements that were put to us before

I think it is pertinent and needs to be looked at. None of our keepers have improved under his stewardship. He is of small stature and so he is not somebody who would have dominated the area and so fails to teach the keepers to do so. Forsters size is a massive advantage and we fail to use it. Surely it is logical to practice coming out and dominating the area. This take the pressure off the defence and also makes somebody crossing the ball having to really think about it and so move the ball further out of the danger area

sums it up

You must have run out of paper as theres a lot more to his repertoire lol

If you are in a position of strength then you may be able to demand, but Puel isn't at present. I suspect he knew the constraints when he came here.
