Who you reckon he's on the phone to?
 

We're being held together with chewy and masking tape at the moment. Yes, we have an injury pile up, but that bench underlines why there's a gulf between ourselves and the usual suspects for top 4.

Despite what Roberto says, you can't do it without spending, because you can only really see one kid coming through per 3-5 years or so.

One point is a gulf these days?
 
A gulf in terms of squad resources. Could you see any of the other CL spot chasers having to turn to a bench like that?

It depends if they had 8 first team players injured.

Take 8 players out of every squad in the prem Dave.

K Mirallas Groin/Pelvis Injury no return date
S Distin Hamstring Injury no return date very doubtful
S Pienaar Cartilage Knee Injury 11th May 14
P Jagielka Hamstring Injury 3rd May 14
L Traore Hamstring Injury no return date
B Oviedo Broken Leg no return date
A Kone Knee Injury 11th May 14
D Gibson ACL Knee Injury 11th May 14
 

Why use a translator then?
Because he says that, while his English is good, he might say something wrong (slip up, etc), or say things in an offensive way without noticing, and he can also get his point across easier without having to think about translating it into English in his head.
 
Tough game today; Saints press you and strangle the energy you have in midfield. Lambert and this Gallagher kid will try and ruffle the feathers of Stones and Alcaraz; will be interesting to see how they cope up against big lads. Lallana will drift in and out frequently, so it's important Coleman/baines aren't dragged away and a vacant space is left for Shaw and Clyne. Wingers will have to track back today and prevent the overlap, which is pretty much what they'll have to do with our fullbacks.
Lukaku will have to improve on his touch today; losing possession against these is criminal.

Southampton have nowt to play for, we've got to win. Big game, tough game but I've got a feeling we'll edge it 2-1.
COYB!!
