Hopefully Manè can continue his form against the bigger sides. You look at the potential weakness in Uniteds defence and you do think if Pelle can attach himself to Blind he can get some joy
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/sep/13/saido-berahino-west-brom-virgil-van-dijk-Southampton Guardian called this game insipid, so agrees with a lot of you. Second half of article quotes from Virgil.

Happy with that ref, he's not scared of the top four. Also, he's a pretty good character judge, hey Adam.

The Guardian is getting awfully academic these days when explaining a mere football match. Here's a few apposite quotes from Virgil: "They succeed, because they think they can." "Come what may, all bad fortune is to be conquered by endurance." and lastly... "We have a great team here but for us the most important thing was to keep a clean sheet."
Virgil was a Roman poet wasn't he? So its only right for a footballer named after a poet to be a bit of a thinker.
I've often thought my humour went over several people's heads. Thankfully, a few trusted souls get it.

Other stats related to this game and the weekends football; James Ward-Prowse was second in terms of yards covered this weekend. Watching him certainly felt like that as he didn't stop. West Brom as a collective covered the 2nd most yards behind Spurs. We got them moving around if nothing else!
