  1. Club Sale | It’s done!

    I imagine Spurs would be a tempting buy but probably more for an American consortium, I think Manchester United is still the bigger pull for a nation like Qatar. United have a global reputation and fans from so many different backgrounds. If their intent is to sportwash some of their poor...
  2. Romeo Lavia | Chelsea bound?

    Still hoping he doesn’t go to Liverpool, I’m glad we’re playing tough. He’s an outrageous talent, best player I’ve seen in a Southampton shirt since VVD. He’s got the same almost arrogance to his game in which time just seems to go in slow motion for him when on the ball. He has every attribute...
  3. Romeo Lavia | Chelsea bound?

    Saints fan’s view on Romeo Lavia. He’s a ridiculous talent, I’ve not seen a 19 year old have such natural calmness on the ball. He has an amazing footballing brain and just seems to have the knack of being in the right place at the right time. He has a good engine, and can cover ground quickly...
  4. Luton Town in the Premier League? Probably not

    The snobbery here is ridiculous. So what they don’t play in a 65000 seater. The atmosphere in that ground if you get a ticket will be amazing. It’s such a different experience as well compared to all the other grounds in the league. If they manage to stay in the league for a few seasons they may...
  5. Harry Kane | Bayern Munich player

    At 60 million Kane would be an amazing signing for United. The fears about him declining with age are understandable but I don’t think he will be effected as much as other other strikers. His game isn’t built upon pace and quick movement, rather on intelligence and timing. That’s something which...
  6. Players who were good enough to star for big clubs but never did

    Payet, his chances created in the last 5 seasons is ridiculous. His form for West Ham was of a world class level, he still looks amazing at Marseille. If he had moved to a big club I feel like he could have gone to greater heights.
  7. Steve McClaren | Yessh our new assistant coach

    Concentrating on the spine of your team which makes sense. Although not the greatest I think your full backs can do a decent enough job. I don’t think they are actually as bad as many United fans think. Luke Shaw needs a proper preseason and he could easily become one of the top left backs in...
  8. James Ward Prowse | this isn’t a performance thread | signed for WH

    As a Saints fan I don't want to see him go but for the right price wouldn't be too upset. I think he'd be the perfect signing for Man Utd, and would be a step in the right direction for you as a team. I've seen a few comments of he'd be a waste of money or that he'd be another Schneiderlin...
  9. Harry Kane | "I will be staying at Tottenham this summer and will be 100% focused on helping the team achieve success."

    As much as I want it to be a disaster I can't see anything but being a ridiculous success if Kane goes to City. His movement in the box is really intelligent and say what you want about him, he's an insane finisher. With KDB, Grealish and improving Foden he will have chances galore. Especially...
  10. Luke Shaw | 2020/21 Performances

    I think an important thing people are forgetting is England had a player down injured too, Declan Rice had cramp and was struggling to get to his feet. Shaw could have easily put the ball out of play instead he had the game intelligence to realise it was 4 on 4, and he chose the better path to...
  11. Are the yooof really losing interest in the beautiful game?

    As someone who is relatively young still well, it's not falling out of love with the game although after this last year I have somewhat. It's the extortionate cost of everything to do with football that has started to put me off. The ridiculously expensive tickets, the expensive Sky, Bt Sport...
