Match Day Thread Southampton v Swans

Bit of a crap game really, and one that highlighted both teams problems - ours in front of goal, and yours in terms of your squad strength. But we all know that already. Thought you defended really very well though.

Just wanted to come on to say a word about your fans - thought they cracked on singing through most of the game, and singing loudly. Moreover though, lovely bunch to chat to after the game too. Credit to you boys.

 

Take the point as a bit of a bonus and don't analyse the game too much. It's only game 1 of 38.

There is 18 days left in the transfer window so anything can happen yet.

 

Yep, and something needs to happen sharpish to add to our cutting edge or it will be another long hard season for us and non stop stick from us to the yanks and big nose and Co. ! As if they care ?

 

You suggesting there's a chance Llorente will be sold too?

I'll be surprised if Chelsea don't make a bid after what happened to them yesterday

 

Can't see Llorente in a Blue shirt, he's not the Conte type anyway. As far s Chelsea style is concerned and lucky for us, Llorente is too slow, too old and too injured.

Doubt we'll see Chelsea lose another game before Christmas.

 

I don't think Llorente will go anywhere this time round. Gylfi must surely go (regrettably of course) and will be replaced by Joe Allen if we up the bid or Viera since that seems to have been lined up for a while.

 

Looking at yesterday, we need the both of them.

 

^^^^ Spot on there PGF!

 

Looking at Spurs line up, I see they have "replaced" Kyle Walker with Kyle Walker-Peters at right back. That's weird.

 

Exactly ..

Southampton enter partnership with Chinese businessman and his family

 

You don't wanna put a bit of money on that do you , no losses before Christmas . I'm good for it , ask Musty .

 

Beginners luck!............

 

We had to use 9 defenders to secure a lucky draw if Man U get the chances the saints had then we can easily lose 15 - 0 and that would be flattering for us...We need players urgently and all we can do is peddle backwards looking for old players Like Bony and Joe which is a typical Jenkins ploy.....The latter Joe has said he is not interested and he is happy at stoke and unlike Jenkins their chairman puts it straight that there is nothing to see here and move on....I can see us winning the odd game but will lose far too many as we camp firmly in our own half panic defending.....Jenkins needs to stop trying to run a premiership club on a budget as it dont work these days when players are going for silly money. We are too late for the best of the players as they have been snapped up early in the window so we need to go global to find someone with class and not the lower leagues and non league who only add to the wage bill....
