Union Berlin due to the fact that I grew up there, it helps that they're a unique, quirky, fan owned club. Don't have a second team in the england, though I have a level of empathy for the underdog clubs like Burnley, Sunderland and Brighton

It's hard to see them not scoring, but with us at home and the lads hitting their stride we may just be able to edge a win here. So I'm gonna cross all my appendages go with 2-1.

According to K Billy over on saintsweb gabby has indeed been told to seek his fortunes elsewhere in january. (https://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?59890-Manolo-Gabbiadini&p=2692701#post2692701) I can't imagine it would be to bring in Selke though as we're amply supplied in the CF role...

Agreed. He was undoubtedly effective. But at 35 his best days are behind him, and his penchant to be a diving, thuggish cheat would outweigh any improvements he brought to our defense.

http://www.transfermarketweb.com/?action=read&idsel=197114 According to this website we're apparently looking to sign Pepe now that he's a free agent. It doesnt list any sources and I really hope it's not true, but thought its worth posting in lieu of any other news. Quote from website:

I think the amount of improvement he's shown, the solid performances at the end of the season and (presumably) low cost should earn him a new contract or at least an extension on his current one.

That preseason Red Bull tournament was amazing <laugh> Awful team performance, Cuco doing his best Ali Dia impression and Gary Preston on commentary....superb. On Cuco I have a hard time agreeing. He'll never be a superstar but once he learned his role properly and stopped leaping up field...

http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/14524503.Saints_have_contract_dilemma/?ref=rss Echo giving its thoughts on the contracts of a few of our current players. Mostly well known stuff (Wanyama wants out, Pelle likely to leave) the only surprise was this: That seems a little odd. He's...

So, let me see if I can summarise the last few weeks. - Saints secure European football, its highest ever points tally, most wins in a season, another climb in the end of season ladder along with many other records (finishing above liverpool etc.) -Saints rack up victories against all manner...

Aye, was very tricky this year. Could easily be any of a half dozen players IMO. Voted for Davis as i think his impact on the team is most obvious when he's absent and his loyalty and ridiculously high workrate deserve acknowledgement (didnt hurt his chances last sunday either) but any of VVD...

Erwin? ;)

Haven't seen it elsewhere so will just leave this here.

I cant help but think that Ron is waiting to see how our transfer shapes up before making a decision on his own furure. Its all well and good to theorise and outline plans and entirely another to put them into practice. If every summer window acts as a reset that involves us selling established...

Tbf there is a lot of gray area regarding footballing rules. I know refs have a hard job and generally try not to be harsh on poor decisions or performances ( apart from Kevin 'ineptitude in human form' Friend.) We see decisions made every week where even after numerous replays, camera angles...

So its an issue with the current law. I know mertesacker had no intention of using his hands there and a card would've been unjust but as someone else said with the law being as it is players can simply flail their limbs about wildly in their own box comfortable knowing that any contact at short...
