So the January transfer window is open.
When was Saints last good January signing? Isn’t the last one we bought Vegard Forren?
I want a PS4 but I just can’t find one at the right price!
Looks like Debuchy is off to Brom. Not his biggest fan, but he’s got to be better than Martina/Cedric/Yoshi out of position.
Another CB, I’m not sold on Virgil. Nuisance at attacking set plays, but flatters to deceive I think. Makes some nice touches, or a good recovery tackle and people seem to gloss over the fact he was out of position. Which seems to happen a lot. Watching Spurs yday really made me pine for Toby back. He really is quality. That boy Alli too, he’s going to be some player.
Definitely need another striker too. Though, fuck knows who and Jan is never a good time to get a striker who is fit and scoring. Still wouldn’t mind chucking some cash at QPR for Austin. It wouldn’t be perfect, but it’s something. I’m a big fan of Pellè, but he can’t do it alone. He seems to be something of a purple patch player. Can’t knock his effort though, even when things aren’t working for him be keeps plowing on and trying the same things. Someone to relieve that burden a bit would be great.

I see Stephens has been recalled from his loan at Middlesbugger as they’re not playing him…
A coach for the forwards.

Ah, team building, get them all to the ground together instead of in their own cars…

Then we’d know that Mane was on the bus.
Tihnk all this shit about VvD is out of order. If he just stood in line and won headers, would that make him a good CB? Given our lack of penetration in midfield, it’s essential that some of our players have an attacking mindset, rather than backwards sideways.
I do have a crush on him and think he is Alan Hansen incarnate. Without something ‘different’ on the pitch, at least we’ve got a player who has the potential to alter the game. Nevermind he’s still a quality CB and his ‘mistakes’ can be rectified - ie deciding when to twat it and when to nick it in order to take it forward.
So, VvD is good and I hope to shit he doesn’t get injured.

This is awkward, KRG. You’re wrong, basically.

I wouldn’t buy Striker cos I’m still holding on for JROD to morph into gr8 all round centre forward. He will be like Long with finishing, and like Pelle with pace, all rolled into one. But also with a good first touch. Mark My Words Is Only Matter Of Time!

Oh look at all the clappy Virgil-ista’s*, dazzled by a cb with a touch. He waves his arms around glares at everyone else when we concede. That means he’s awesome.
*According to the law of Furbal/Barry, I have now won this argument. So you can all go home.

Bigger goals for our games (to be swapped to the end we are attacking at half time) and Ziyech.
It’s OK to be wrong. Admitting it in public will make you a better person.
Um, did you not see my post TCK?
Virgil-ista’s. It’s over. Sorry.
