    That, or they don't know what an adjective or a noun is. They are Liverpool fans :)

    They barely know what 'words' are.

    Does the Saints board even have mods? Finding a Van Dijk post is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Someone needs to sort the wheat from the chaff.

    We tend to be slightly anarchic on here at times so it goes against the grain for us to behave just cos the mods tell us to.

    Not just yet, if they manage to sell Coutinho they may come back with a decent offer.

    Manage to sell.? They're more desperate to keep him than we are with VVD. There are articles asking if Liverpool can afford to let go of him.

    I always think, in these situations, how strange it is that there are no articles written about 'Can Saints afford to let players go' when other clubs come raiding. Usually there is the odd article, months after the event, whinging about '...if only Saints could keep their players what a force they'd be...' YES, WE KNOW THAT. Thanks for pointing out the BLEEDING OBVIOUS.

    And it would help if the same media weren't quite so keen to sell them for us in the first place.

    It's quite obvious isn't it though? Where we are and realistically can expect to get in the football food chain is way below Liverpool. They should expect to be able to keep their best players, we can only hope we can

    Well not really, the only teams who can do that are the likes of Barcelona. Liverpool are nowhere near the best in England let alone Europe. They are a selling club too and have been for years.

    They are a selling club only to the top tier. We are below them so are a selling club to the tier Liverpool are in. If a player from Saints proves himself at somewhere like Liverpool then the next step would be on to a Barca.

    Agreed but you said they can expect to keep their best players. They cannot just like we cannot.

    Off topic but Brian Wilson was awesome. Just so many great tunes and a real legend. Emotional
    I love Leftfield but we couldn't face trawling through the mud anymore so went home
    Would have been better if the site had been more strawy
