Big money for Stoke - around the same as their total outlay the past couple of seasons. They've also signed a couple of other players for fees, so either expecting some big departures (do they have anyone worth a lot?) or the new financial regulations are helping them a bit.

Yeah, I saw some of his flashes of ability. A glimpse into what he perhaps might do. But always in inconsequential games. When someone else has done the hard yards and got us into a winning position. But when you really need a break out player against a good team, he would be absolutely invisible. 

Again, I'm hoping we get the really determined to succeed version this coming season, but I'm not holding my breath. 

I think this is overly harsh.

Finishing was awful but he kept possession and stretched play and did get decent crosses in. A goal or two and a bit of confidence he’ll be very good for this level.

Scienza especially second half of the season was anonymous for periods as well.

He’s a good player but not what Saints need at the moment so good luck to him at Stoke. Coates Bet365 empire worth a bit so new regs probably a factor.

Don't think he played in the game up there. I was impressed with the lad who scored their goal ,  Stamenic. 

He ran the game and we only got our goals after he was taken off.

Doesn't really matter with SCR, the owners can only put in a certain amount over X amount of years. What benefits the most to clubs is additional revenue, so St Mary's being used for concerts and events helps along with the Dell bar and Level 1.

Any idea what the club earn from concerts, and the other add ons ?

Pleased not to read any THB news to date or links to other CB’s.

I personally think he’s going to be our most important player this season as he’s a natural leader for the rest of the team.
