    Haha he has been a legend for a number of years on FIFA and Football manager. Can't believe he's only 23 been around a while. Get it done Les and Ross.

    "Oh, but if I leave the club
    No matter right or wrong
    You'll have to stop singing
    This highly original song"

    A lack of relevancy
    Hasn't stopped our songs before
    So you **** off and we'll sing on
    You money-grubbing whore

    Norwegian sports journalist has said both Saints and Wolfsburg have had bids accepted.

    Saints closest to deal and Elyounoussi prefers England.

    Worth mentioning that Wolfsburg has had an even more difficult past two seasons than we have, finishing in the bottom three each year but surviving via the relegation playoff.

    You're not lazily suggesting that all people that have North African heritage have the same personality are you?

    Boufal had/has a lot of potential, but a fair bit of it was unrealized potential. Lot of the followers of the French league suggested when we signed him that he had all the attributes, but was far from the finished product.

    Elyounoussi likely needs refinement as well, but he also torched some top teams in Europe, which is a better measuring stick of his ability to step into a top league than we had with Boufal.

    And the Plymouth duo, if you go back a few years. Freeing players from the clutches of the colour green is a long-term mission.

    FFS guys, you need to lay low, keep quiet and not jump the gun on these Saint threads. Too soon, too soon.
