Whos better for Saints. Nainggolan or Wanyama?

Nainggolan every day of the week - he's proven in a proper league, not some pub league. Yes Wanyama has played a handful of games in the champions league, but I'd go with Nainggolan very day of the week.

Nainggolan is much better technically and probably better conditioned to the style of pressing play. Also Wanyama is unproven in a big league.

Nainggolan. He's Belgian and as we know all Belgian players are now amazing somehow.

So when will de ridder become good

Well - that settles that then! Next question!

I think players like De Ridder and Guly have the ability to play in our team but just lack sometimes in their footy brain, as both sometimes make weird decisions and that would be hard to teach but Steve did have some classy moments in the Championship last year, scoring some class goals!

I think the question that the FA should be asking is this

"How did the Belgians suddenly get so good?"
they obviously didn't quite get there with De Ridder which is a shame, but in all seriousness, I remember the Belgians being a bit of a joke when it came to football - Now look at the talent they have!

What do you guys think about scouting young talent from the SPL? We might find a couple of really good talents.

There really isn't much in the SPL as far as young talent goes and this seems to me to be an attempt to re-fuel an unwanted argument with Celtic fans.

The set up in Scotland for youth players is not very good. We wouldn't find much talent I suspect. Just take a look at the Scottish international side. Nearly as bad as England!

Lol there's more talent in my toilet bowl than in Scotland.

Better off scouting in Spain, Brazil or Germany. Minimum talent here and if there is any, it is not being encouraged/developed!

Johnny Russell!

While you are at it, check out that football talent from the Faroe Islands as well.

^Oh snap.
