    Jose has it wrong. He moves to Hampshire, he plays be Hampshire rules. It's Fonte (ez) because of the song :)

    I quite like the sound of this Juanmi dude, providing we can work our Saints magic and getting him firing near potential. Seems to be a lot of good stuff written about him.

    *edit* - and I was completely and unutterably wrong about ryan bertrand, so now trust the black box!

    Little description, here...

    Predominantly playing as a secondary striker, he can also operate as an attacking midfielder or a left winger. At just 5 ft 6 1/2 in and 63 kg, Juanmi has a slight frame but possesses excellent ball control, has great dribbling ability and lightning acceleration. As you would expect from a Spanish youngster, he is technically strong, has good vision and is a good passer of the ball.

    This season Juanmi has also added a great work rate to his game and is relentless in his pressing, this has led to defensive mistakes and has created numerous goal scoring opportunities, as seen with his goals against Barcelona and Levante.

    "Fringes of the Spanish team" means nothing. Jamie Vardy is on the fringe of the England team!

    However, I'm happy with this. Looks like shrewd business

    Not on current form! They're going through their worst spell for over a decade and are going through a complete regeneration process. Yes they are better but they share many of England's problems

    Agreed. But check out their last 10 results, some pretty poor scores there and not all against great opposition.
