It is a fact of life that some people look scruffy in Armani and the lucky few look terrific in work jeans and a T-shirt.
I don't know how well the black box works in Serbia but Partisan Belgrade have a sensational centre forward this year Uroš Đurđević aged 23, can't stop scoring. please pass this on to the Saints scouting team!
No but I will. It's good. Particularly liked the line about Les Reed, if he do get taken over in some form then I really hope there isn't a clearout at the top.

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/oriol-rome...-worried-about-losing-virgil-van-dijk-1612918 Romeu discussing Saints ability to replace players....in this case Virgil (if he leaves). I like the positive attitude that Oriol has to Saints.
Unless I'm missing something, is there any reason why our game v United couldn't be played on FA Cup semi final weekend?
Papers talking about Chelsea using Ake as part of a deal for VVD. Obviously swap deals so rarely happen and this is paper talk, but it's an interesting point. Saints are in such a strong position due to VVD not really forcing a move and having a long contract. Imagine if we agreed with Chelsea that if they sell us Ake for £15/20m this summer, they can have VVD for £50/60m next! As I say, that is so unrealistic but would love to have Ake as part of our team!
Yep, I like Oriol's attitude too. He's sat on so many substitute benches and had time to think about his place in football and how the teams he plays for can cope and achieve. However, reading that article left me with two things to take away. One, I certainly don't think VVD will be leaving this summer unless Saints want to have the record for recouping the most money ever for a defender. And two, this photograph: I would title this photo: **** Off.! As Matt Targett said when asked who was the hardest player at Southampton, he said "Oriol. Loves a tackle." That question was asked last season.
