    Massive club. The pull to go there would be undeniable.

    Can't even keep hold of our best players when such a massive club comes along with all its history. <whistle>

    We sign their star players, they sign our third choice strikers.

    Settles that argument for me

    Clearly our ambition has changed. It appears we now want better players who can score.

    Will the Celtic WUMs jump in on this? I thought they were confined to the VVD thread ...

    When I heard Shane was changing sports, I'd assumed it was to play Hurling or Gaelic Football, not the lesser known Scottish Football

    Chelsea fans jumping all over this as they think it suggests he is returning to Stamford Bridge. Somewhere else I read that he looked unhappy after the win on Saturday...is this straw clutching or is he genuinely pissed off at Saints (though not enough to make a show of himself like VVD)?

    There is a hashtag. He is on his way home to catch up on Game of Thrones like loads of people do on a Monday.
    For example, like I did yesterday. And I don't recall signing for Chelsea as a result ...

    And perhaps he looked unhappy after the win because we made it far harder for ourselves than we should have ...

    I did see a video of the celebrations when Austin scored. Most players sprinted over and jumped on or congratulated Austin while Bertrand just strolled over. Not sure how much, if anything, can be read into that though. From what Beefy has said he wanted to go but he definitely isn't playing the same games as van Dijk.

    Gregm88 clearly sending a "come and get me" please to Conte.... bloody fans! Doesn't he realise he signed a contract for life when he first turned up at Saints! Well he's done for me now! Let him go.

    And no one seems to want him . His only option as a starter would be if Rose leaves spurs - don't give me this "he will back himself" talk he has been a reserve at Chelsea and I can't imagine he wants to risk a World Cup place by being a reserve at Chelsea or city . And with shaw, rose, cresswell and baines out there his place could be at risk

    ....suspect he looked unhappy because he realised he didn't have the greatest game, and hence didn't enjoy it that much.

    To me it looks like he wants to catch up on Game of Thrones. This series is particularly good
