I like this post, I don't think you will but I hope no one gives you **** for it because you've put your points across very well indeed. Now I don't agree with all of it - I do with quite a bit - but despite not agreeing too much I enjoyed reading it because I feel it was very well put across I'll address it tomorrow when sober... Maybe
29,947 today, I know several that didn't turn up because of the weather, and the four in front of me weren't there because of the stupid o'clock kick off time and travelling difficulties.
Oops! Amended - Gabbi - looks sharp again, made a tremendous run holding off the player and then slotting the ball through to Long. Quality player just needs support! Rating - Jam sandwich served with fizzy pop and allowed to watch cartoons on TV!
Brilliant goal. MP, who is not impressing me much, needs to sort himself out now and work out how to play Boufal from the start He is pretty good at doing it for others who produce nothing game after game.
This just ain't funny, clever or a sign of maturity. Nathan is a Saints' player not a figure for you to poke childish schoolboy fun at. Your comment leaves me thinking you might still be attending junior school but that is probably unfair on the enthusiastic kids in the Saint's Family Section who seem not to be the least bit negative about our players.
Godders, can you please elaborate further on why we shouldn't poke fun at Saints players? After all, the most ultimately show no loyalty towards the Saints themselves, earn insane amounts of money and above all are not Gods to be praised without question!
Basically because it isn't what we consider to be Saintly, it's a bit juvenile and just what you expect on Saints Web, The Daily Echo and perhaps the Ugly Inside, you aren't banned from doing it of course, but it could lead into one of those long argumentative diatribes, which end up in posters getting kicked off. If we poked fun at you, it may annoy you so we shouldn't be doing that either.
I want Sofiane to get a run of games, but I also want him to get *told* he’s getting a run of games so he doesn’t start against Brighton thinking he needs to do everything so over-tries. That for me is his potential main issue that he needs to work on. I’m with Godders btw - the ‘Redmiss’ thing got old the first time it was done i’m afraid. Sorry Toss Saints.
Lemina - 94% pass completion. We have a great one there. Congratulations to our recruitment team and Les on that one - they get a lot of criticism, so they should get a lot of praise when we land someone like that who could easily play in a top four side.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool really should hang their heads in the shame. I mean, it's not even as if we signed him from an unknown side on the other side of the world. They'll end up paying two, three, maybe four times what we paid for him in 9 months time now. He would walk into their teams.
Lemina is exactly the type of player Wenger would have signed in his first 5 years at Arsenal. Crazy to think how much Man United payed for Pogba when Lemina has shown just as much if not more (I know it's a lazy comparison and Lemina has only played 7 or so games).
Bad enough that the media are so predictable and try and sell our players....I refuse to do the same..
Don’t get me wrong Fran, i’m certainly not trying to sell him. I just wanted to make the point that our sometime maligned recruitment/leadership team deserve a lot of credit with him (and I suspect Hoedt too).
He should have passed I kepy shouting "pass it, pass it, ffs don't give it away, paaaassss iiiiiitttt...wow. Gooooaaaallll!!!!! Howtheffinelldidhedothat???"
