Thedelldays Posted 10 June, 2011 Share Posted 10 June, 2011 (edited) since 2005, that relegation fuked everything up.....until now. we have had a huge turnover of players and it seems most games on sky had an ex saint connection... with the loss of theo, bale, crouch, jones, surman etc etc lets pretend for one min that we kept them all whilst staying up in 2005... what would be our best team if we could pick those players playing TODAY........ mine Kelvin baird harding Fonte mills (did he leave pre or post relegation) OxO Surman lallana bale Crouch Walcott something like that..... sure beats worrying about player not signing for us Edited 10 June, 2011 by Thedelldays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambosa75 Posted 10 June, 2011 Share Posted 10 June, 2011 Davis Baird Andrew Davies Fonte Harding Oxlade-Chamberlain Lallana Surman Bale Jones Walcott Not sure Crouch qualifies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 10 June, 2011 Share Posted 10 June, 2011 (edited) ---------------------- Walcott ------------ Lambert ------------------------- Lallana -------------- Schneiderlin --------- Surman -------------- Chamberlain Bale ------------------- Fonte -------------- Baird ------------------ Ostlund ---------------------------------- Niemi ------------------------------------- The team may be a little unbalanced but it would be my favourite.

Big_Bald_Si Posted 10 June, 2011 Share Posted 10 June, 2011 No-one would keep Niemi ahead of Kelvin? Don't get me wrong, I love Kelvin, but for me, Niemi is quite possibly the best keeper we ever had - believe he played for us first half of our first championship season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colinjb Posted 10 June, 2011 Share Posted 10 June, 2011 take it you starting watching post 88 or so? That would apply to many of us. For so many of us Niemi is the greatest Saints 'keeper we have ever witnessed. People can only go on what they have seen, it is no disgrace to be young. For someone like me comparing Shilton with Niemi is comparing hear'say with fact. Perspective is just that, what people see. Don't attack them if they havn't had the gift to see something more.

Because you arrogantly assumed he is the greatest keeper we've ever had. People have pointed out that there are at least two who were as good as, if not better in recent memory, including the keeper widely regarded as the best in the world at the time and the second best English goalkeeper ever, who played for Saints not in the 20's or 30's but in the 80's, so relatively recently.

Oh i forget, you were the bloke that was getting grief from his bird to choose a season ticket over an engagement ring. Well let me tell you sweetheart, choose the engagement ring and your relationship is doomed to fail, She'll see you as a weak pathetic chump who crumbles at any pressure. Give it a couple of years of boredom and dominating you she'll be off f*cking any bloke that shows her a bit of attention while you are at home crying yourself to sleep into your pillow, shi**ing youself about what she might be getting up to. My mantra in life is me first, me second and if there is anything left i'll have it. Also regret the things you do do, not the things you dont. Ie smash what you can, take what you cant, f*ck anyone else, seems to work alright for me. Of course you lily livered "i'm in love" morons will have to get over your own limp wristeness and deal with a world of eternal rejection and heartbreak. Good luck son.
