    Title needs changing: OUR Manolo.

    Not since SRL have I seen a Saints striker like him and he is also a truly creative one. Manolo is a striker that we would be scared of if he played for any other team. I swear a defence could tie him up and he'd score with a little flick of one toe. Am I getting carried away....of course I am and loving it.

    He is the sole reason I'm looking forward to the rest of the season. I believe we will score in every game he plays.

    Puel has already changed his tactics to best suit him, which must make Manolo feel wanted at last. Maybe some tinkering to find his partner that best suits him, I have a feeling it will be Sims or Hesketh rather than Tadic, as the academy lads both look for the quicker pass

    Would we have sought him out without the injury to Austin? Maybe Austin's injury was a stroke of good luck.

    Just watched his second goal (third) again. Does so well considering Smallimg has an arm around him and one grabbing his shirt.

    Very clever player. Watched him closely yesterday.

    Are we back to "Les knows what he's doing" again now?

    The replay of his second in slow motion, he swivels and whips it in with his left all whilst Smalling barely moves a muscle.

    Well actually, now that a few more people know him, I think we'd better start saying that Ross Wilson knows what he's doing.

    His second goal yesterday gets better and better every time I see it. Sublime finish. He's so quick in the box with his feet and he turns so quickly too. He reminds me of Inzaghi.

    Was saying to Fats and Chilcs yesterday that VVD is my favourite player in a Saints shirt since MLT.

    He might just have some competition now.

    Am I right in thinking that Gabbiadini is now our second top scorer this season.

    I will predict this now. We have 13 games left. If he plays every game I reckon he will finish the season on 15 goals.
