    That was the day my Son was born! Thought my mate was taking the piss when i got a text saying '2-1. Pelle overhead kick' <laugh>

    My other 2 favourite Pelle goals have to be Liverpool this year and Stoke away in league cup.

    Thanks for the 2 years Graz and I can even wish you well as you've gone to China!

    His performance for us completely surpassed my expectations
    The transfer fee we have received for him completely surpassed my expectations
    I have pretty high expectations so well done Southampton and Pelle and good luck.


    The following is just fictional. Any resemblance to actual persons living or actual events is purely coincidental.

    Pelle's move to far away China was announced just moments after Teresa May was announced as Britain's new prime minister.

    And don't forget that one he lashed in against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. It was the only bit of the goal he could definitely score into and it went smack in the spot he looked at. The man can certainly strike a ball, with both feet.

    In the comments section on Youtube there is a Welcome to Southampton PEH message. In a reply a scouser has put. To Liverpool you mean. You're just keeping him warm. Oddly, I felt an air of inevitability about it. :rolleyes:

    Pelle the sixth highest paid player is nearly as ridiculous as Koeman being the sixth highest paid manager!

    It was CBK, although the security system was a bugger to hack into. Video is available, plus I stole some of his gel...at leadt I think it was gel.
    Sorry to see the big man go, some fantastic performances (mostly on the second dvd) and deserves the ludicrous money that the Chinese are throwing about.

    A striker whose past games I'll easily be able to watch again repeatedly, representing Southampton FC and feeling that warm glow of pleasure, as he joyously celebrated every Saints goal and helped us beat yet another opponent we weren't supposed to have turned over. Grazie Graziano.!

    I've already watched the Stoke match (well, the highlights) and grinned again at his two goals and his "celebrations" :1980_boogie_down:

    I will give some of the matches under Koeman a replay....could never re-watch matches under Poch. Perhaps I am toughening up....though I may still yell Die, Die when Ron runs up the touchline after our third goal against Liverpool. <laugh>

    I watched the Man City win the other day. I just had to block out the 'there's only one.....' singing. Like you I couldn't watch any of the Poch ones but then I was angry with the players too, this time I don't care about them.

    Apparently Pelle getting criticised in Italy for his move to China....suppose they'd rather see him at Chelsea or in Italy. He is possibly putting his Italy place at risk.
