    Not sure when Ralph actually said this but if we did call him back he needs to play more than just from the bench.

    It’s a completely neutral answer that most likely means he stays where he is unless we have both a massive injury crisis and struggle with signings

    The level of punditry on tv is so poor these days.

    They are discussing the Arsenal - Saints game on Soccer Saturday and all the talk is about how Arsenal dominated the 1st half and should have been out of sight, but that they didn't maintain it 2nd half.

    The various reasons given were that Arsenal switched off, got fatigued or became sloppy. Not once did any of them even mention that Arsenal only in fact dominated until Saints changed formation around 20/25 minutes in.

    I know we only know that because we are fully invested in the game and perhaps wouldn't have noticed if it was, say, Arsenal v Brentford. But you'd expect ex-pro's that do this for a living would have a clue what they are talking about

    Are Merson and Charlie Nicholas still on it?...that would explain the Gooner bias.

    Merson is occasionally but not today, the rest of the old lot have all gone. The analysis has always been pretty crap, it was just fun to watch as the pundits had a laugh. Now it is just crap punditry with no dynamic between pundits.

    Tadic, Fonte, Oriel, bit of a theme here? And before anyone says Mane, VVD I’m talking about players who were possibly let go rather than wanted / demanded to go.

    In fairness, I think Tadic asked to go as did Oriel and Fonte more or less went on strike :)

    Lol my mate and I were watching it for about 20 mins before the goal - it was initially on Perraud's side until he kicked the ball at it and then thought it wold go somewhere quiet (it obviously watches us) like the opposition goal mouth
