Saints V Tottenham Hotspur The Verdict

We wouldn’t be so daft to play the high line away from home.

Saints Looking At Swap Deal For England International Keeper
at 22:33:01

I’m not convinced it would be a great move for Butland.

He’d be better off at Leeds or Villa, both properly big clubs where he would probably be first choice.

Saints Plotting Watford Raid As They Wheel And Deal Attacking Options
at 12:10:01

Danny Welbeck’s appearance record in the last 5 seasons is abysmal.

38 games played out of the last 190.

Expensive wages as well.

Do not touch with a barge pole.

Destiny Day At Wembley For Harrison Reed On Tuesday
at 10:28:21

Nick, you keep saying that Harrison Reed is worth £5 million in the current market.

Where on earth do you get this figure from?

One of the top midfielders in the Championship is worth a lot more than that.

For example, Norwich sold James Maddison to Leicester two years ago for £24 million.....

Leicester City Plotting Double Raid On St Mary's

Vestergaard meanwhile is hopeless. £26 million for him is beyond ridiculous. I simply can’t believe anybody would be daft enough to pay anything like that for him.

Leicester City Plotting Double Raid On St Mary's

We don’t appear to have easily found an experienced right-back for the short-term, so I would have my doubts about our ability to find an experienced left-back.

Bertrand is a class act. When do you ever see him get outclassed by an attacking player from the oppo? Need to keep him.

As Nick alludes to, we could do a lot worse than Ben Gibson.

And £20m sounds an awful lot for Fry given our financial situation.

Saints CEO Denies Takeover Rumours & Restart Talks
at 09:18:45

I am amused that pretty much the whole of the bottom 6 are opposed to playing at neutral grounds, on the basis it goes against the integrity of the competition over the whole season.

Brighton and West Ham are particularly animated about this. Brighton have 5 home games left out of a total of 9 games.

The Prem need 14 teams in favour to get a vote through.

If you were Brighton, West Ham or any of the bottom 6 you would be heavily inclined to mount a legal challenge, which will delay things by months, and by which time the second wave of the virus will be in full swing.

So there will be little choice other than to void the season.

I drove to this game. Paid 50p to park for the day in the town centre.

Kind of summed Middlesbrough up for me. Though the car was at least still there when I went back after the game.
