Need to up the tempo and kill this game off.

That wasn’t in the script!

What a beautifully crafted goal.

Get in!!!

Picked myself up one of those Samsung Frame jobbies at the end of last year so I could move my Xbox to my office / man cave.

He said in a previous interview that he'll be fully focussed on the game. Probably not much for him to do at this stage anyway I'd suspect. Edit: Fuck, this was in reply to Wykiki's post at the top of the page, damn life comes at you fast!

Perhaps he wants to play for a Champions League side as opposed to one of those mid-table mediocre outfits.

Plus Murphy has completed his badges in shithousing.

He's certainly not the glamour signing most of us wanted but, as others have mentioned, his work rate and pace will fit right in with our style of play. Yeah he's fugly and will bring the average looks of the squad down but his Mrs has big tits so there's that.

Well if I was claiming to be ITK I’d probably say the same thing based on everything I’ve read.

Gordon turning up for training on Monday…

That’s more than I needed to know.

Possibly more agent / press bollocks, but if Liverpool and Man Utd are sniffing around Maddison then I can see us pushing the boat out now to ensure we get him.

So, our usual £100mil budget, less £40mil (ish), that leaves us with £60m for Maddison

I see the Express are still peddling their “ASM wants out” spiel. Have those twats ever got anything right about our club?

If someone's going to kick me in the shins, I much prefer a low block.

If ASM goes then we need a quality replacement, who isn't cup tied (so from overseas?) and who can drop into the team straight away otherwise we could be fucking ourselves for the Cup Final (should we get there). I know ASM probably wouldn't start and isn't "the one" who would guarantee us winning, but he's an incredible asset to pull off the bench to scare the shit out of defences. Plus, as others have said, his link up play with Isak and Bruno last game was very nice to watch.

March televised games have been announced and all three of our matches are on telly. So that's our next 8 games all on the goggle box (or 9 if we get to the Carabao Cup final). Given our last 6 were all shown live that stretches this impressive run to 14 (or 15).

I know we're all supposed to be "trust the process" yada yada yada but if the rumours of us shipping out ASM to bring in Gordon are true, I fail to see how that's decent business. Paying £60m for Gordon is also bad business imo given we gave up on Maddison when those types of figures started being banded about.

Well gargoyles are supposed to be good luck, so at least he'll rid the place of evil spirits. No more bad juju around St. James'

What the fuck is this commentator on?! We had a perfectly good goal disallowed so Southampton can’t feel they’ve been the wrong side of some fine margins. Prick!
