Interesting first day for Pierre, walks in the door, whirlwind tour, sign here please, lovely, now off you trot - you got a plane to Washington to catch
Reading peoples views and im seeing nothing but positives. Must admit to having never heard of him before.cant wait to see him play. Assuming a striker will be next ?
Another attacking player for sure, just don't think we will see a ST anytime soon. Maybe in August if Rodriguez is struggling.
Did Les have a pattern for knitting a Southampton player? From what Pierre says, he suits us down to the ground....and us, him. Proof will be on the football pitch, but he seems a good fit.
I like the sound of the kid, he's got a spot on attitude and seems to have joined Saints for footballing reasons. Watched the obligatory videos on the Internet, and my first thought was we've found our new Morgan. Big, strong, mobile, intelligent and reads the game. I'm calling Wanyama upgrade and a good pairing with Romeu...could be just what we need to get better service to the forwards and allow the fullbacks to do their thing with a bit more confidence. Great bit of business and as usual off the radar until the deal was near as dammit completed. Harry Reed better start looking for another club methinks, if he wants a starting place though, unless he has improved over the last year.
Should be plenty of playing time to go around...in midfield, someone is always either tired, suspended or injured.
Maybe, I am wrong occasionally . I think the last year won't have helped Reed's development and so he's playing catch-up - I suppose we'll see what he's made of if he does get chances
Not quite sure you understand. The appropriate time for griping and sneering is when we sell players, not when we buy them.
No, but Koeman was rather stubborn about not rotating the squad. And we'll likely have an even more front-loaded schedule, with at least six more matches prior to Christmas. I'll be shocked if we cannot find time to work in the likes of Reed.
Wonder how P-E is getting on....he said he hadn't slept for 3-4 days and now has a transatlantic flight. Bet he's glad he's not going tourist.
