    Honestly, Cedric has been like this all the way down the line. I have not the slightest concern over him. Good for him.

    There is quality there...they are not going to be all sub-par all season. Just need a couple to play to their true potential.

    And their lies the test of a good manager. Get the best out from what he has. We have the talent, we now need to apply it.

    "Hard work beats talent, if talent doesn't work hard". God I miss Nigel for his Adkinsisms

    Not really his though, in fairness. It's a bit like me saying "we shall fight them on the beaches" and then everyone saying "as LTL said..."

    Daft rumour about us selling VVD to Arsenal in a cash + player (Walcott) deal. Players aren't a box of chocolates you can throw into a deal....Theo won't want to come back here.....though I think he should have left Arsenal a few years back.

    If Vietto happens it will be deadline day. They want a replacement first

    Well you can [Frank Saul], and there have been several lesser players who have turned up in a player, plus cash deal. Sometimes they equip themselves OK, but mostly they don't.

    Walcott should never have gone to Arsenal. Nor Ox-Chamberlain. Or Chambers, for that matter.

    Good player, but needs to have a restart. Aka typical Saints player.

    Hi Beefy; do you think we are done this transfer window? Its a little mad in the market and l think it will probably get worse before the window closes; not the Saints way to get to get caught up in the feeding frenzy.

    I think Saints are at it, whether we get anyone or not we'll see. Don't know much about Vietto.

    I think this is pretty much what MP was saying, apart from the Vietto bit.

    Still think Vietto or another attacking mid and that's it.

    Everyone is influenced, they borrow and adapt. Nothing is entirely original, and hardly ever has been.

    Two weeks of coaching is going to do us more good than any last minute signing.

    Is Vietto a solid link or just your personal preference.

    I'd be delighted with Vietto, as I've said a few times this window! Really rate him.

    Doesn't all this depend on where Costa goes.?
