  1. The most Spursy of all spursy games. Son seems to have lost his way. Gray when he came on looked out of his depth but the other 18 year old is going to be some player ( I know he got caught on the ball but) Solanke was as I had expected, nearly there. Vardy is a horrid player but he still is in the right place. Spurs should have scored 4 at least.
  2. wish they'd bloody hurry up
  3. Personally, I would have liked Tall Paul to have been on the bench to give us the option when we needed his height and nuisance value when we need a late goal
  4. I have only seen one snippet of O'Riley taking a corner, he does seem to be some kind of demi god on here. Its amazing that he is so good clubs at the top of the PL dont seem to be interested. As I put earlier in this thread, this time last year nt getting Piroe was a disaster and his goals were going to send Leeds up. IMO any player who holds out like this saga, it rarely works. I know it may be Celtic who have held out but they have been proved right and got their price. Move on to somebody we can afford
  5. Also to be fair to Isak he played a perfect first time pass to the scorer, I suspect if it had happened the other way we would have crossed it over the bar or another balls up way
  6. He is not an outfield player that's for sure. As for didnt try that is unfair but people have the preconceptions and won't change their mind.
  7. whilst it was a poor pass by McCarthy, Stephens didnt need to play it to him in such a tight space.
  8. I do hope we did a Murphy send off
  9. I as with you at the start of the season, but what impressed me was that he did change and became more pragmatic. The play offs and final showed that he was prepared to change his principles a bit
  10. In the 80's when football violence spread, the attendances fell dramatically. People were turned off the game. I know things are different but the tide could turn, not that im expecting it to
  11. Brooks hardly set the world alight
  12. I have seen on here that Archer looks pretty quick but from the clips he runs away at first but the defenders do seem to be able to get to him. Hopefully im wrong and he is Rodney Wallace pace
  13. I registered by following the auto link . If you use the link and then look at your leagues you should see Saintsweb on the list. Im useless at this type of thing, but managed to do it and so if I can!!!!!
  14. to be fair his nickname is Skipp
  15. yeah but he's not ugly 😀😁
  16. well they should do so, the medical will be pull your trousers down and cough, then the contract will be on the back of a vape packet. Right thats all the necessaries done lets fax it to the FA
  17. We have medicals!!!
  18. DT, There is not a keeper in the history of football you have said a good word about LOL. AM is not a world class keeper but he does save shots unlike our ball playing keeper who is injured. AM will come for the ball and that was important in games eg WBA and Leeds. His command of the area took pressure off the defence and we did seem more solid. As for Ramsdale, dont forget he has been relegated twice when being the keeper
  19. No as 10m will get us little to replace although it seems Ipswich are getting Smolicks for 9m
  20. I will be very disappointed to see Tall Paul go, especially for 7-8 million. We wont get much of a forward for that money and TP will add a bit to our game especially for a plan b/C option. He may well earn us points that could be our saviour. RM is not stupid and hopefully he will accept that having a different option that opposition defenders dont like. He maybe the perfect foil for AA or BBD. Having been brought up in the days of Toshack and Keegan and how effective that was perhaps Im misjudging modern football
  21. Well the gov has given the junior doctors 22% wage increase and now the Train drivers 14% increase, seems its going to be a bountiful time for any workforce with a powerful union. The floodgates are starting to open, and so not only massive wage increases but also the pensions that come with it will be added. Prudent and keeping the reins on inflation it seems, top work
  22. Leicester won the FA cup, that could well have been us if Ralf hadnt shit himself and played to not get thrashed. An appalling game/show from us and you never know had we won that we could have won the cup. Unlikely but 'Super Ralf' showed what a wonderful manager he was lol. Im one of the few who believe that Puel was poorly treated.
  23. I agree with St Louis, its not easy as getting a price, tell the player what you are paying re wages and he signs. The agents want to float the interest around hopefully to get another club interested, the selling clubs also want to do so.
  24. I totally agree that we were better in the last few games as RM adapted tactics and style brilliantly. This give sme hope that he is pragmatic.
  25. Remember this time last season, we missed out on Piroe who was going to fire Leeds to the PL at our expense? Didnt happen and whilst we have missed out on players, it doesnt mean they will set the league alight. I still wonder if Souza from Sheff Utd would be a good signing. I think he won more tackles and interceptions playing for a poor team
