QuoteYou've done that now and then with properties Geysir and you always live to regret it.
The lesson may be not to sell your first choice striker at he last minute before the season starts, just because the offer appears too good to turn down.

He missed another header
He's nothing if not consistency. And that's what managers want in a striker, consistency.
What consistently missing the target?
I was being sarcastic, tricko.

Hey, I'm still recovering from the mere thought of Charlie having part of himself in me. Leave me alone.

I really think he does too, honest. But, it'll be a convenient, viral stick to beat his fee.
Yeah, that's deliberate. There's a similar clip of Keane doing the same for LA last weekend, only Keane's didn't look so deliberate. He either made a monumental goof up or disguised it so well it looked like a total goof up. I know, let's ask TOWK for an unbiased view.
I doubt anybody will look at it and think it was accidental. It's pretty clearly intended, although it didn't fool either of the defenders.
Yeah i think its just the delayed dummy by his right leg that has me not 100% convinced
I think is is probable a deliberate pass, Shane's bad but not that bad!! (I hope).
Actually I think he did draw in one of the defenders in a bit and make a bit of space for the guy outside him.

If it was deliberate... it was one of the most pointless pieces of non-skill I've seen.
Has anyone been following his progress at Southampton? He seems to be getting plenty of game time but in a wide ( or wide- ish?) role. I've read some papers say Koeman is playing 4231, others that he is playing 4141. If Long is furthest right in the latter it'd be quite different to his role in the former.
I only caught glimpses of him on MOTD and it spears he is covering most of the forward area of the pitch but with Pelle trusted with the main no. 9 role, and to good effect.
So, it appears to me that Koeman rates Long but clearly not as the lead goalscorer. They seem to be going OK so his judgment seems vindicated.
Reading through this article on the setup at Southampton today - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/foo...ld-Koeman.html - and Long gets a brief mention
so it appears they had identified Long as a transfer target before Koeman arrived, which is interesting.Bertrand, Forster, Toby Alderweireld, Shane Long, Florin Gardos and Sadio Mane had been long-term targets
Good article too BTW, well worth a read, the journalist discussed on NewsTalk last night
Southampton 8-0 Sunderland
Long got none...
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
He was subbed at 4 I think. I only saw bits and he nearly scored once. It didn't look like he was playing centre forward.
