From what I have seen this evening Benarek is not good enough. Stephens is a better long term option. If van dyke goes we need an experienced partner for him. yoshida was better last year but still a great back up not Saints for the next generation. That being said who ever we buy will be sold in a few years anyway. Main point of my post is that Bednarek is not good enough.

One game isn't not enough and he is 20 or so I have seen plentybof players have a bad game did u see on- chamberlain for England v France wtf was he doing it was like he had never played football before won't stop all trying to sign him.

How many games have you watched him play this season? No offense but an opinion of a player's ability judged on one match doesn't exactly hold enough merit.

Only seen him once, and you are right everyone can have one bad game he just looked out of his depth with average players playing against him. I am happy to be wrong I am just a life long saints fan who watches a lot of football and always want the best for the club.
Happy today with our new manager appointment.

Don't know much about the guy, but I watched the England -v- Poland U21 game and he didn't look great. BUT, we're not buying the finished article here. We'll be looking to improve him, as we have with every CB we've had for the last 3 or 4 years. I suspect the theory is that the Black Box has identified him as someone who has all the right qualities and attributes to become a much better player and our coaching teams will ensure he does.

My wife is Polish and I have spent a fair bit of time watching Lech Poznan over the last few seasons (as my Polish team) . I think Bednarek might well be a decent prospect but in my opinion is not a player that would be ready to step into the first team come next season.
He is a good prospect and has a chance but you only have to look at the young lad Kapustka at Leicester. He signed for them on the back of a very good tournament for Poland's senior team in the Euros last summer and has done nothing since he arrived, he has barely got a game. There is always an inherent risk is signing a) a young player and b) a player from such a weak league.
Most of the sides in the Polish League would not even compete at at Championship level. Lech and Legia would perhaps finish in the top half of the Championship with a fair wind but not much better than that.
Bednarek is currently (and only in my opinion) not the best player or prospect at Lech Poznan. In fact I would say he is not even the best centre back at Lech Poznan, it doesn't mean that he won't be a decent player in a few years time mind.
For what it's worth I do think there are one or two players in Poland that would cut it in the Premier League right away but I cannot see Bednarek being ready to play next season.

Personally pleased we kept JRod and added strength to our strike force. I like Stephens but before Garson got injured he did show promise. Now is his time to step up and deliver. It could be the making or both Stephens and Gardos if they are given a run in the side and not continually rotated.

I have to say I am a little disappointed that it was not a quick appointment. Surely they should have got the manager they wanted lined up before sacking Puel. I was sure it was Tushel we were after and was gutted when he ruled himself out. If the choice according to the papers is Stam, deBoer and Pelegino, I can't help thinking Puel would have been a better choice. I don't know why I am worrying as the board seem to pull it out the bag every time . Just wish it was a bit quicker!

I agree he looks like his form is improving and he looks like scoring when he plays. I would keep him as he is a valuable player now he is fit again.

Great news good statement for our future.

So we spent all summer to secure out manager who has had 3 competitive games . Not great games but still only 3 and we are supposed to believe the board are fed up. I have been reading posts for years without comment and this one got my goat. Saints forever.

Agree we don't have the squad but I do want Europe to help attract the right players.
