What a player. He deserves some time off but I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t want any!
 
Fantastic player and fantastic news to round off the season.
 
JWP is crucial to our resurgence this year. His tenacity to win the ball back, his technical brilliance and his tireless engine make him absolute gold dust within Ralph's footballing ethos.

Chuffed we've tied him to a long deal.

JWP and Danny Ings are critical to how we play. Hopefully Ings follows suit.

He's taken a long time to become an essential. I've always liked him, and remember an early game at Everton when he came on as a sub and some big git whacked him within about five seconds of his arrival as a "welcome to the Prem" notice. I thought he'd been broken, but just got up and played. Wasn't sensational or flashy but just did what he had to do. Said to a mate afterwards that he'd do. Have had times with him when I thought I was mistaken, but he is now Captain Marvel. I'll point out that I'm usually right. Thought that Le Tissier bugger was too flash for his own good and would end up playing for Eastleigh. So there you go.
 
What a few days/weeks this has been!

- Saints win five, draw three and lose one post-lockdown
- Ralph signs new deal
- JWP signs new deal
- Bertrand sounds like signing a new deal
- Salisu has signed
- KWP likely to stay
- May clear some deadwood
- Che has started scoring
- Danny finishes with 25 goals for the season
Splendid effort chaps!
