i don't get why we haven't tried play Clyne out on the wing he looks much better going forward then defending, any thoughts?

I was impressed after the team gels and if Gardos is as good as Koeman made out we could do as well as we did last season, just need Pelle to settle!

1.) Interesting idea, would of had to be tried and tested in pre-season. His defensive work is generally sound though. I remember someone else mentioning using Bertrand and Clyne as wing backs going forward with Wanyama dropping in just in front of the centre-backs as a sweeper, probably would be a good tactic.

2.) I think the idea with Clyne is to use him and Bertrand as wing backs, pace going forward allowing our 'wingers' to cut inside more often with an option remaining out wide. Plus with the pace it makes it easier for them to get back and defend which both are very capable of doing. Clyne is a good wing back and I think his defensive talents and pace could be being wasted slightly by making him a proper winger rather than a wing back. Just my opinion though.

ok so poch has gone it isn't the end of the world, the most important thing is to keep our best players! Lallana will stay, Shaw is 50/50, Lovren wont. but is there anyone we are linked to, players? I think a new gk younger than 30! another cb and a striker. however there are two midfielders I would love at saints! will Hughes from Derby and Maximillian Meyer I think they would fit our style of play perfectly. I know we won't get them but still, what about you lot?

1.) I'm not entirely sure lallana will stay, not now spuds are in for him.
