Re: 2014
I think we should all eat crow for critizising the moves made by Southampton.
Those guys make boatloads of money for their talent, buy some guys that raise a couple question marks but still have a great start to the season.

Thought that we'd have great difficulty scoring...liked the Mane/Tadic signings, thought Long was a **** move, thought that Pelle (from what I'd seen of him in the Eredivisie) would be a flop. Uh, yeah, about that.
Next three are Hull away, Leicester home, Villa away; won't last forever, but Saints could easily hit December in the top two or three.
**** your asterisk.

Has a 10m purchase clause in his loan, I believe. Which seemed like a ludicrously large sum to pay for Ryan fking Bertrand three months ago...not nearly so much now.
Only real concern is Fraser Forster. Artur Boruc was a madman who made an outrageous error every four or five games, but he commanded his area well in between. Forster's been a bit shakier, but luckily he hasn't had much to do most afternoons.
**** your asterisk.

Definitely willing to admit I was wrong on that front, I mocked the Forster, Long and Bertrand acquisitions. Good for them, a very likable club. To see this, particularly after the doom and gloom of the summer, is a pleasant surprise.
West Ham on the other hand can **** off and I hope they regress to the mean as soon as possible.

Tadic and Pelle were inspired signings, Tadic in particular is involved in EVERYTHING that leads to goals it's insane.
