    Ralph on Solent about Adam Armstrong ... "he's a different striker to Che, he knows how to score goals...." :D I'm sure it wasn't intended that way, but it did make me smile!!

    Was after he was known to be leaving so yeah could be taken with a pinch of salt. They also had highlighted (as some have on here) how he shoots from anywhere and everywhere.

    I always like to read a bit about any player we sign but save my own judgement of them until they’ve played a fair bit for us (unless I have seen the player loads of times before signing for us, then I’ll just complain at the time of signing)

    His chief weapon is surprise.

    Surprise and fear. Fear and surprise.

    His two weapons are fear and surprise.

    And ruthless efficiency.

    His three weapons are fear and surprise and ruthless efficiency.

    And an almost fanatical devotion to Saints.

    Uh! Four. No.

    Amongst his weapons...

    Amongst his weaponry are such elements as fear, su-- Il come in again....

    Hey, our last two legends have turned out to be anti-vax weirdos. I can forgive him an apostrophe or two.

    Interestingly he scored one more goal than Lambert in two less games in the Championship last year.

    Fast on transitions isn’t the same as a lot of pace. Stuey is also fast on the transitions but not the fastest on just pace

    I’d take this before pace most times
