When we had Mane, Pelle and Wanyama at this time last year we were 12th I believe. We must somehow be playing better if we're 7th now. They went and we pocketed a load of dosh. So who needs goals? lol

You mean like he's turned Redmond into the next Henri

Tottering 0-2 Saints

A reasonable post. Provided the board get a good striker in on loan.

Did you sat the same about JayRod?

Blimey!

Puel has said he is not going for a panic buy. I hope that this is only a negotiating ploy and that he has a serious (ie accurate) striker prospect he is determined to bring in.

Laura predicted 2-0 Bournemouth, so I'll go for a risky 0-2 victory for Saints (both Bournemouth own goals of course)

lol

I see that Saints are featured on that Virgin Media ad

Sorry, wrong info

RIP Rolland. Your design - our club badge - is a design classic.

Rubbished on this site, doing well since he joined them, so he'll relish scoring against us.

11 men packed in front of goal will see us through 0-0

Yes, like a year after we were relegated

Plus factor in our 20% undervaluing of Mane last summer. The big clubs have worked out how to prise away our best far too cheaply. In the past they were able to claim that out talent was unproven. VVD is not in this category. He has to be worth more than the erratic Stones.

Now you know what it's like for Londoners travelling to late Sunday games at Southampton and back, and late Sunday games happen too often, these days. Not to mention four hour long diversions due to 'essential rail improvements'. SWT no longer care about passenger comfort

So, not too happy then?

Southampton make 8 changes to mighty Arsenal's 6 changes and no way deserved to beat Wenger's dreadful title-chasing-pride-of-the-capital team. Only poor defending allowed this makeshift southern (somewhere down there) side lucky victory, spoiling Wenger's last chance to win the EFL cup. Fantastic! Bring on Liverpool

One great goal?

Not Saints related but for me the best refs are all those who have sent Mourinho to the stands. Too many to count, lol

'Josh Sims? I was not aware of him' or similar words uttered by Koeman? How many other stars of the future that he was not aware of have we in the Academy?

I do hope that the Sanits will never be come our nickname

Actually we don't play the same 'second eleven' each time. it didn't work out, but how else are fringe players going to get game time. Somewhere, we may have more Sims. And when we are out of the Europa cup they won't get their chances.

There was nothing wrong with our players' attitude against Manchester City on Saturday. They tackled and pressed aggressively. Goals are the main problem.
