Only Saints could by the wrong academy keeper from citeh…

According to Alfie, Adam Arma is dropping into that role…

Plenty of ineffectual possession across the halfway line. :+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1:

So Russell, with what aspects of that fist half were you happy?

Well John I think the linesman operating in our defensive third was top notch.

Can’t argue with that, thanks Russell.

Dunno but I’ll be bringing in 10 new men in the second half

We sent the wrong keeper out on loan

It’s getting on for 20 years since I stopped going to preseason games. However with the advent of online streaming I can now waste my time in the comfort of my own manorhouse.
Is this a forward step or do I have to modify my behaviour?

Your next step is to forget the game is on and rely on posts on @SotoniansCyclingClub

Edit - That was not the @ name I was expecting but I’ll leave as is

Is there point in preseason training when we set some time aside to practice goalscoring?

Just asking.

Oops Prowsie does a David Beckham.

What? Kicks out at Pochettino

Our shiny new possession based game is crumbling whenever we try it on around our box. Goztepe have sussed it already, and they’re pressing us hard as soon as we do it.

Christ knows how that’s going to pan out against Championship sides in non-friendlies. :flushed::flushed:

Hope Alcarez didn’t over exert himself with that equaliser before his game against Djokovic tomorrow

That was Diego Simeone. Poch fouled Owen for Beckham’s penalty 4 years later.

So I see Saints are so strapped for cash that they are charging a fee for streaming pre-season friendlies

Ok it’s a fiver….but still :lou_eyes_to_sky:

Paying to watch players about to leave us?
Nah.

Got it on Buffstreams in time to see a slick move and JWP score from a Tells pull back. 0-2.
