    And that is all that matters and I am very pleased about that because I like him as well.

    With regards to those who boo him etc I expect they are the same people who left early on Saturday.

    In a Mirror piece, they talked about Southampton's fickle minority...not far wrong.

    Agree with that Godders. Trouble is his body language makes it liook as if he's taking things easy even when he's working hard.

    Just wrong. And before the usual people start talking about how it could happen to anyone, he was driving erratically which means dangerously.

    That's the worst thing you can do when you drive is to drink while being under the influence of alcohol.Well done police.

    Sorry if I'm being stupid. But I can't see why everyone on here rates him So highly. Will someone actually say what he is good for? He has a terrible first touch, can't cross, never sprints with the ball and loses the ball more often than anyone else.

    He does have some moments where he gets frustrated and perhaps punches out of games but for the most part he is one of the harder workers on the team. And also probably one of the best at dribbling out from under trouble. One reason he loses the ball a lot is because everyone else plays simple passes and its he and Lallana that are asked to make something special happen. The other reason is that because he works hard in midfield, he gets the ball a lot. After all, you have to first possess the ball to lose it.

    Booing him is ridiculous because there are times where Guly plays with more passion than anyone on the pitch, and if he were to get a positive response from the crowd I think he would really respond.

    BUT while I like Guly, the problem is that he really doesn't have a role.

    Optimally, he should be coming off the bench for any of the forward/midfield positions doing whatever needs to be done that particular game. Whoever is having a bad game can be taken off, or he can come in as a midfielder if Saints need offense or replace a forward if they need defense. That sort of flexibility would be a huge asset.

    But unfortunately the way it's been up to now, he gets thrown on in a right midfield role which probably least suits his abilities.

    He will get a ban, no doubt.

    I thought he had a really good first half against Wigan but fell away in the second half along with everyone else

    Sorry but surely the title for this thread should be "Please cut Guly some slack"?
