gr8…I learn it from a iPhone.
He looks pretty handy from his goals/minute ratio. Second only to Higuain!

It’s on the BBC.
It’s happening.
Probably.
First time in recent years that I can remember a signing of ours being so publicly known and discussed.

…denunciatorily hewn by Optimus trousers…beta v1.9 - now with EXTRA pictures!
You might be disappointed, if you were to take all the penalties out.
That said, i think he will work very well in Cluades system, but as Fatso has said, the lack of time he will get will be the thing that shows his worth(or not). The absolute positive is that he loves hitting it from outside the box(something we are desperate for) and hits it deceptively hard(and mostly accurate).
I think he’ll be a good’un. Supposedly turned down other clubs because he sees a future with us. We are becoming an appealing choice and that makes me very happy.
Cup final hero? @jumping the gun(still not working on chrome then)

Wales has spent £13m on Costa from Benfica. He is the 5th player this season to move to the championship for a fee of £10m+. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to these fees. My dad has just described the Gabbiadini fee as “quite cheap”.
Stupid Taffs.

That meant to say wolves but the new font changed it to Wales.

that costa looked pretty handy vs Liverpool, but I’m with you. We monstered straight through the Championship, and our most expensive player was prob like i.e. £3m. That’s the way to do it, Championship Mugs.
Look at the positives, we spend about the same, but are a midtable/euro places premier league team(that just happens to be going to Wembley). It’s not bad and next year is going to be fucking amazing(buy your season ticket now). Listen to your dad, he’s the brains in the family.
Have we signed this twat yet.
will he be a 15m striker of the “nut the captain” mould or “play for a couple of years and fuck off to China” mould

Whenever they sign I like to think they’ll be in the “Scores for the fun of it, loyal, football is my soul, contract honouring, Saints legend” mould.

Good man @btripz , you’ve now replaced ‘newsnow’ as my go to transfer news site scraper.
I’ll check back in in a couple of hours when I’ll be expecting news of at least two done and dusted ‘on the dotted line’ signings and another undergoing a medical.
Please don’t disappoint Bob, remember there’s popularity at stake here … it’s your big chance to be a hero 
Squad will look pretty strong when everyone is Fitness.
Boufal / Tadic / JRod / Long / Austin / Gabbiadini / Redmond / Sims fighting it out for forward positions. Like to see the Anti-Rotation bros from Saintsweb keeping that lot Happy.

False 9??
That term was invented by a succession of united managers who couldn’t get rooney to stay where he was supposed to (ie up front) and therefore invented a new role so that they looked like they were in control.

Strange days indeed.
