Merson just praising Saints on Sky. Sees us as top ten and doing even better than last season...finished by saying, he was going for a lie down
what short memories some people have. JWP started in a few of the early games of last season and he was fantastic.
To those surprised at Cork and Clyne not being in the starting team: how can you not have seen this coming?
Dare I mention that I see Paul Merson has said he really rates this Saints squad and that they'll surprise quite a few teams that finished above them last season. Top half finish, he says. Matty couldn't believe his ears and Merson said he needed to go to bed after that.
And he didn't look out of place one bit ... what an achievment for an 18-year old making a league debut.
Honestly how on earth did you come to this? He started our last first game of the season against Man City and was given a bit on MOTD about how well he played! He isn't even 19 yet, but he's already not up for it? He has an excellent range of passing, wok ethic and has fantastic technique. I certainly see him as next in line to the CAM role behind Gaston.
That was the line up i expected, maybe Punch instead of JWP. Regarding Clyne it would have been stupid rushing him back
Apart from he was rambling on about CAM and not mentioning Cork. Meaning he'd have to play Cork CDM. I see you conveniently ignored that.
He is solid, just doesnt have the flair to play that role, i always thought he would be better further back
