Isn't it three - Firmino, Sakho, Henderson? Worryingly, most of the expensive players don't make the team...
You may have had other decent players, some of whom may have been better, but they were hardly your deadwood.
You had a fantastic honeymoon period for the first half of last season. New manager + no expectations meant you did very well. I think you then started to stumble from Christmas and find a more normal form. I really don't see you coming close to us next year tbh, especially with EL which could decimate you. Whilst we gave you a lottery win last summer, it has certainly not been the case for this year: let's face it, Clyne for £12.5m is great deal for us - certainly more so than £30m for fatty shaw.
Forgot hendo but in theory replace him with Lucas and swap Lucas and can over and have more balanced side which is cheaper
For Liverpool, yes. But it's convenient to forget that he was very good for you in the first half of that season hardly deadwood in the second.
Lierally zero The scouts must have Southampton season tickets at this stage ! I understand that you are prone to the occasional exaggeration ( Liverpool's attack second best in the league minus Suarez ) but I'm sure that Liverpool would keep an eye on their new found rivals such as Saints, Swansea and stoke
Why worry about what you can't control. if we win enough games don't need to worry about anyone else, we'll hit our targets.
Also didn't quite catch the news that all the Stoke players were actually Southampton players in disguise for the last day of the season. Or are Southampton fans just taking the credit for Stoke's win anyway...?
So, kinda like that *ahem* 'trophy cabinet' down at St. Mary's? Strange then that the mighty Southampton could not take a measly point off the woeful Liverpool last season.
