Spoonman

Was a big fan of his and was so chuffed for him at the Euros, but he let us down upon his return. Shame the way in ended, but he's now a shadow of his Saints days and in hindsight the club did well to move him on.

Goals and a win at last. Had to rely on radio commentary today, by all accounts we made hard work of it, but it's all about the 3 pts. I will enjoy my beers now tonight! Out of curiosity, did fonte get much abuse?

Yep, it's very satisfying alright. The arrogant/deluded ****s.

As a Saints fan I hope he stays, but as a Shane Long fan I reckon a move would give him the regular game time he needs.

It is thanks to the Liebherrs we are where we are today. Hope the Chinese lads can maintain the progress!

I watched him playing for Austria against Ireland last season and he was genuinely **** poor. Obviously anyone can have an off day but I wouldn't fancy him..

It's quite the conundrum. While I don't wish to see the boy ever wearing the red & white again, neither do I wish to see the boy and his advisors win the day by getting a big payday.

Simms?

Davo or Romeu. Wouldn't be opposed to JWP either.

Nutshell.

Aldridge is a fckin tinker.

Yep, was thinking same. Hopefully will come to pass. Not sure about Wimmer at all fwiw

100% this

Let him rot. He's now up there with Lovren /Lallana/Kenwyne Jones. Obviously we will end up selling,but the club need to stand firm, and not do business with the victims.

To be fair, I'd prefer if Kat doesn't sell. This Chinese mob would be a big step into the unknown, and on the basis of Liebherr stewardship to date I'd sooner stick than twist.

Perhaps because he was the England centre forward at the time. Long history of England internationals getting away with murder

In comparison to the Echo and the UI this place is a bastion of sense and wisdom.

Yeah, looked class didn't it. Shame kits only last a season these days.

Quality as per usual. Your level of disdain of those Scouse b'stards equals mine sir! Proper order.

Glenn Cockerill. He gets some abuse, but his was the first Saints goal I was present for, at the Dell. That and his barnet. Hon mentions: Steve Moran, Nick Holmes, Budgie, Timmy, Ruddock, Dodd, Franny, Jos, etc. Could go on a while...

Oh, and Black out btw

A lot of predictable negativity on here tonight, as per usual, but the bloke does seem like a good option for us IMO. Let's just ****in get behind the new man. Welcome Mauricio, no pressure like

I'll second all of that. Beautiful shirt.

Shame it didn't work out, hope the new geezer can get us firing again

If the reports of Van Dijk's contact with Klopp are even vaguely accurate, how can he continue with the armband? Shameful stuff.
