altoniansaints Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 if that chance had gone in would his "career" with saints have been any longer? i doubt it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitzhugh Fella Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Not sure how long he was on the pitch - I have him down as 53min but others say 43mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmel Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Not sure how long he was on the pitch - I have him down as 53min but others say 43mins. I thought he came on as sub in the second half and was taken off about twenty minutes later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrant Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Came on after about half an hour as Le Tiss got injured, replaced some time in the second half. Presumably it's in ITN, Duncan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 I find Ali Dia's appearance only moderately amusing , Souness's scouse 'tash on the other hand is pure comedy gold . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huntingdon Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 The interesting thing about Ali Dia was the fact Souness watched him in training before sticking him on the bench. So, he must have shown snippets of ability Had he buried that chance in the bottom corner, who knows what would have happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, he must have shown snippets of ability Had he buried that chance in the bottom corner, who knows what would have happened Exactly this. Outsiders seem to think that Souness got completely duped and threw him into the team without seeing play, based on the "George Weah" recommendations alone. The reality should be much more embarrassing for Souness, as he watched him train with us for a few days before deciding he was good enough to play Premier League football.

Crab Lungs Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Exactly this.

The reality should be much more embarrassing for Souness, as he watched him train with us for a few days before deciding he was good enough to play Premier League football. It's worth noting that Souness also thought Boumsong was a good player too :-o Having said that and despite him being a very average manager, his punditry is always articulate and reasoned - I can only assume his man-management and judgement held him back.

ottery st mary Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Maybe our Souness was doing a Wise/Un wise favour for a South American/African agent...Where is Keegan when you want him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano6 Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Just wondering who you guys think was the better player, Tiss or Dia, I'm undecided? :smt100 It's this kind of naive comment that makes me sick of Saints fans. Have you ever even been to a game?? I think not, or else you would not ask such a ridiculous question!!! Matt is a legend round these ways mate and played at the top level for many years. Ali Dia had one poor game and got shipped out - there is no comparison. Go and find some clips of the magic MLT used to produce and see if you can find similar of Dia!! I dispair sometimes of Saints fans and this forum, and I've recently been thinking of throwing it all in. Are you, like, 12 or something lol!!

bpsaint Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Not sure how long he was on the pitch - I have him down as 53min but others say 43mins. According to Soccerbase he came on on the 32nd minute and came off on the 85th which makes it 53minutes,don't know how reliable that site is though.

I'm not sure many on here would agree with you on that mate. I don't think there is that much difference between Dia and Le Tiss. Le Tiss didn't exactly score many for Saints did he?

Atticus Finch of Maycomb Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 Bit of a stupid thread, really. Tiss or Dia? Tiss, no question. Tissier was a Southampton hero. Where did Dia play after Saints? Apparently he went non-league after his singel game for us. How can anyone think he was as good as Le Tiss?

Apparently he went non-league after his singel game for us. How can anyone think he was as good as Le Tiss? No question is a bit harsh. Tissier was a lazy player with little ambition. At least Dia really wanted to play for us and his strike in the Leeds game was excellent. To add to this he clearly impressed Souness in training.

Shame he did a runner and was never seen again at The Dell, he may have turned out to be better than Pulis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adrian lord Posted 6 October, 2009 Share Posted 6 October, 2009 I was at that game - and in the Leeds enclosure, FFS. Why in with the Leeds is another story, sex related. That and Ali Dia - surreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
