    I think the, other than the losses obviously, the way we are losing is hard to take. Last year we were so easy on the eye and the fans were proud of how we play. Everyone made a thing of it. Now we are resorting to long ball and the only player that suits is Pelle. None of our other players suit that style and I'm baffled why we aren't playing to our strengths at the moment.

    LTL - who is the bloke "Tivonien" or something like that you keep mentioning? I think he's just gone from Rennes to Sunderland if that's the same lad. Season loan.

    Think people are reading this wrongly. The point he is making is a simple one...the crowd mood will be better if we have a new player to discuss. In any case I think the crowd will be less confident than usual before the game, but will be fully supportive of the team. Saints fans will not boo just because we went out of a tournament. Play well and get a result and all will be flowers, sunshine and butterflies.

    No, Tielemans. Not interested in Toivenen. Would LOVE to sign Tielemans.


    On another note - £22m sounds an awful lot of money Spurs just paid for Son, doesn't it?

    It's slightly confusingly worded, by either Guan or the OP. It confused me. What he is basically saying is we have a new player for certain; and we may or may not reveal that player before Sunday. If we do, then Guan imagines that the crowd may be kinder and more optimistic. Rather than the definitive article stated in the original sentence: 'The crowd's reaction on Sunday will...'

    Don't worry, Spurs have learnt their lesson from splurging more or less the same amount on a succession of players they've managed to wreck. They wouldn't do anything stupid like offer that amount for Schneiderlin or Vic.

    I read it as: The atmosphere being good or bad will depend on whether or not the club present a new signing to the crowd.

    £700m+ has now been spent on transfers by PL teams. So with De Bruyne etc stillto come I am guessing £950m?

    Apart from VVD....will we try to get anyone else in?
    And will Saints truly stick to the "not for sale" sign up?

    I really hope so, a wide midfielder for me like Matt Phillips from QPR. Young and English, had a decent season premiership season in a very poor team
    A lot of assists and few goals....yes please!

    Surely when we spend our 50M it'll be a billion.

    Time is running out....I suspect that we will get no one else in (apart from VVD, please) unless someone unexpectedly becomes free. Anything else would take too long.
