    • I am very happy for the supporters, for the tribute they had with the players
    • I am disappointed that we didn't win
    • I think we have been superior in the last six games, but we haven't closed out games
    • We have lacked that final touch to get the wins
    • It's a great learning curve for 99% of the players at this club
    • We're fully aware that the last ten games are very full of emotional charge
    • We know we have to perform in the last ten games
    • Maybe we lack some mental strength
    • Overall, we have done well
    • Our first goal in the Premier League has been achieved
    • We will be here next season
    • We want to maintain the core of the squad, next year they will be more settled with the first season under their belts
    • The players that join us will add more quality and strength
    • It's the best possible news for the club that Nicola Cortese will be with us
    • The budget is something I am going to speak to Nicola about tomorrow morning
    • I never rest, I always keep on thinking and working for Southampton

    I don't know if its been mentioned elsewhere already, but I love the joke that he made before the game that he'd trip Michael Owen up in the tunnel if he got the chance.

    I do hope Mauricio allows himself a few days off before he starts preparing for next season.

    Well done for the bullet points though. :)

    Actually I think he meant "stpke". It's Polish for "post-match". Very clever DTLW, if not a little pretentious.

    And "Stoke Reaction" doesn't actually mean anything after all.

    Yes, I'm a little too long in the tooth for that feeble attempt to unsettle me, laddie. :)

    His first task is to find a temporary permanent home, hotel life is OK up to a point and Franny won't let them have his now for some reason so something more settled will be a big help.

    You're a little late to the party, SaintDon13.

    Shall I put the p back into Stoke [ie Stpke, basically mistyped and not checked before posting] and therefore make the title incorrectly spelled again..? Would you actually prefer that folks..? :)

    Why not have the 'o' and the 'p' making Stopke, which I believe is Slovak for "stem". That would be more meaningful than either Stoke or Stpke.

    As I always say we all make miskates, I wish I hadn't though.
