The bloke literally said it himself on Sky after the game.

Think you’ve been had there!

14 games? Come on get serious, this is SaintsWeb, they’ll be lucky to get 14 minutes before judgement is passed.

See how he goes in pre-season.

Also, isn’t he classed as ‘home grown’ so anything he gets sold for counts 100% against their FFP targets? Same reason that Connor Gallagher was touted to be sold. I’d maybe take Broja on a loan should Adams leave, on the proviso that we also signed another striker.

Very true, played a blinder.

Fair play to McKenna

Just listened to a segment where they were talking about the ‘5 rules’ that are in place for a new manager at Man Utd. One of those rules is the style of play is being set by the technical director… Mr Wilcox. We know RM has his preferred style of play, but I wonder if the tactical flexibility he has shown during crunch time is because he isn’t being dictated to by a DOF? Probably giving too much credit, but thought it was interesting.

Pretty much sums it up.

Lallana didn’t refuse to train, he was at the World Cup until late June and joined Liverpool on 1st July. Ings doesn’t give two shits about Saints, if you meet him he’ll tell you that. Anyway, I’m not keen on a Lallana return, but it’s a hard no on Ings.

Those giving Lallana a hard time about how he left, Ings’ departure wasn’t much better. He had a club record contract ready for him to sign for 12 months, which he refused and then left at the first viable opportunity. He’s also done absolutely fck all since, got more injured and his only good season came in that purple patch with us. Ings would be a terrible signing.

Hard to know what to make of this, until we know the details of the deal. But yeah if he’s coming in as a proper first team signing and taking up a squad place, then it’s a no from me.

Yep, wasn’t until they kicked off that I relaxed.

Wonder whose signing that off, with no DOF.

I don’t think Flynn can be anything but coy at the moment - nothing is agreed and even if he’d love to stay he can’t say that at the moment in case he ends up staying at West Ham or goes somewhere else. KWP more of a concern, had hoped promotion would possibly convince him to sign an extension, but doesn’t sound like it.

@Wade Garrett for some top pre match posts and @davefizzy14 for his unwavering positivity

He can fck off.

Danny Murphy said the same. Something about Elland Rd, atmosphere etc.

De Zerbi in then. Seems bizarre, albeit only followed from a distance. Poch looked like he had finally got things going to me. Plus if it is De Zerbi, I think he’s a tad overrated.

Seen some of their fans claim they bought “thousands” of memberships for the home game earlier this season. Thousands FFS 😂

Exactly the same happened with Forster. He came in for a few games (replacing the bloke currently in the sticks), played well in one game and people wanted him to get an extension, completely forgetting the absolute dross he displayed prior to that. It’s time to move on, hopefully he has one last good game for us before he departs. We need a new GK, end of.

He’s confident we’re getting promoted then.. 🤦

Wait until @Wade Garrett comes in with his pre-match words, they’ll be quaking then.

I think 1-2 years is a bit of a push, but I think they’ll be struggling in next 5. Issue is the gap between championship and prem is just getting bigger. Suspect we’ll see what’s happened this year more often, with the three promoted teams going back down. If it wasn’t for the financial need, I’d be happy to stay where we are.

I don’t think so.
