    Being out spent by our noisey little neighbours who are looking likely to overtake us in the league unless the club do something.....we will never hear the last of this from their 10,000 strong supporters!

    Interesting - Bournemouth sold him to Norwich when they were both in the Championship for a good price but he's never played in the Premiership

    If anyone watched Scuny play Chelsea this afternoon, I was extremely impressed with Clarke, the Scuny right back.
    Excellent game defending and very nearly blasted in a shot near the end. Certainly worth a look

    Whoever we buy, can we please not spend ridiculous money. Our spending history is dire. Three 12 million plus signings and only one of them gets a game. I know cheap buys can be just as bad but you haven't used up the kitty all in one splurge.

    Isn't that most games these days? Leicester brought on sub today and he scored within 3 mins. When did that last happen for us?

    2 of them were Cortese presents, that no one else had a hand in. Since he isn't here anymore, we will be ok.

    Hhahahaaa. Fact is we're probably not a big enough club to get him anyway. Yet you don't think he's good enough for us. Hilarious. You are deluded.

    Linked with Manchester United, Spurs and Chelsea. 13 goals, 8 assists in 21 starts and 3 sub appearances this season in all comps...

    Not good enough for you or the Saints though! <doh> If you know nothing about a player why are you commenting on him?

    Are you ignoring the fact Cedric is dreadful at tracking his man and marking? Johnson's passing completion is also way higher. Over 10% higher and he has 3 assists compared to Cedric's one. Johnson is also an excellent dribbler. Johnson would definitely start for us.

    No it's not. Never was. Don't lie. This has been gone over before. It's been discussed with the mods that you lie about this and it's why you were originally put on my ignore list. I have never ever said stats are the be all and end all. I've specifically said they are most useful for DM's (passing completion, tackles per game, interceptions per game) and end product for attackers. That's it.

    I'm not ignoring stats am I? I used them in Johnson's favour and mentioned a weakness of Cedric. Why are you lying? <doh> Do you need an eye test? Johnson's passing accuracy is far higher and he has 3 assists. I have said stats aren't the be all and end all. What part of that don't you understand? It doesn't mean they aren't useful.

    Obviously if you discuss how creative an attacker is then you use stats for that a lot more...or someone's end product...<doh> This is me done on this discussion. Nothing else to add.

    It's not called lying, it's called taking the piss. I don't lie. I post in a conversational manner, but you are not good at seeing that as you are black or white. No grey.

    You just don't see it TinTin, but trust me, you use stats to favour your argument and then you ignore them when they are not in your favour. You do it time and time again. I have never seen you say they are the be all and end all, but your posting behavior uses them all the time when it suits you.

    Gaston v Lallana
    Anyone v Steven Davis

    Just a couple of examples. Then, someone tells you that a players stats are better than a player you are talking about and you throw in other traits. It is incredible.

    You other favourite trait is that you never answer a question that may show you to be contradicting or potentially undermine your debate. Not just me, several times. It is a shame as you post a lot of good stuff.

    I am glad you've discussed this with the mods :emoticon-0107-sweat:emoticon-0107-sweat:emoticon-0107-sweat:emoticon-0107-sweat:emoticon-0107-sweat:emoticon-0107-sweat maybe you'll discuss your lie that you can guarantee that Long and Mane weren't happy with the formation yesterday. That's a lie. You can't guarantee that.... oh hang on, it was just a conversational expression?? Oh yeah, I get that now.

    Put me back on your ignore list. Let's be honest I am ****ing stupid compared to you and know **** all about the game and will save you dodging those questions you don't have an answer to. Just before you do though, please do tell me which side it was you gained your managerial experience at... I am dying to hear that.
