Victor Wanyama: What would you do with "Our Mighty Kenyan"?

Agree with Bucks here. Several games he’s been excellent, Arsenal at home being a prime example. Other games he hasn’t looked anywhere near as good as he can be; I guess the balance has been different this season, with him being on the top of his game a lot less of the time than hitherto.

But yes, if he would rather be elsewhere then let him, as long as the price is right. I can imagine there’d be a number of Premier League teams interested, and quite possibly a few in Europe too. Just as long as it’s not Tottenham (and Levy would have to break the habit of a lifetime and make a sensible offer for us even to consider that. And even then I bet we wouldn’t).

I got slated on the other side for saying he should take a leaf out of Morgan’s book and give 100% in his last year if he wants away.

Of all our departees I thought he stood alone in giving his all throughout - a few nutters disagreed and ripped into Morgan.

Sulking and underperforming as Victor has, and I would put Sadio in that camp too, makes it easy to replace them because whoever comes in is likely to at least look keen every week.

I’m not worried about losing either of them.

“Our Mighty Kenyan” holy hell.

I thought this place was better than Saintsweb

That was the original forum motto, but stevegrant took out an injunction and pap had to back down because stevegrant had high price lawyers underwritten by Fiver Mountain, whereas pap was taking his legal advice from barry.

New forum motto is, “Cheaper than Saintsweb, and sort of ok if you don’t mind whoppers, chewbaccas, and sandal wearing liberal elite”

Indeed. There have been times when he’s still been an important player for us this season. But even apart from his lack of respect for our Club, the sulking, the many half-hearted performances etc. Even when he has been on his game – his disciplinary issues have let both himself and us down badly.

As others have said (and you already know my feelings on this) Romeu has been class for us, and deserves his place in the team. He’ll be fine with Clasie next season and a strong addition in Vic’s mold, yet without the temperament issues.

Do you not get down St. Mary’s much Ted?

The “Mighty Kenyan” is the words to Victor’s song.

Which I used in irony (knowing that Saints fans would understand what I was referring to), as personally I think he’s a selfish cunt.

It is Ted. And it would be even better without the abstract incongruent bollocks you seem to like dropping into threads, whilst offering nothing of any value to the topics yourself.

I’ve yet to see one single post from you since I’ve arrived here that adds anything of substance to Sotonians whatsoever.

ooh jack has laid out ted right there srs!

You fired prematurely there, Ted.

Take it up with the Northam End.

But you’re wrong, Jack.

Take a look at the documentaries, film and TV threads. That’s where Ted adds real industry insight, passion and value.

Fair enough if that is the case Bletch. I’ve not really looked at those threads much. Was simply commenting on my experiences of all the other places I have seen Ted post.

Probably best if a person has nothing worth adding to a topic, that they just don’t add anything to it.

I’ve never had a pot noodle, srs. I always thought they sounded Gross. One of the secretaries tho, she heard about this, and she just put one on my desk. She says she wants to watch me Eat It. I think she might be pervert. It is Beef & Tomato Flavour.

I’m still trying to get the image of Oriel standing in a puddle of Mighty Kenyan mold out of my brain!!

As others have said, Vic has been consistently inconsistent this season, his best games have been against clubs that he would love to move to. Oriel I was dubious about at the beginning of the season but just recently he has really stepped up to the plate so I have no qualms in sacking the Mighty Kenyan off and getting an understudy to Oriel in.

And if Pelle can seriously be nominated for BPL Player of the Month then Victor should get at least a knighthood.

I’m not sure I could cope with less PJ Harvey or Courtney Barnett.

As you were Ted.

As a big fan of CB & PJ, I endorse this message.

Keep on keeping on Ted.

Sotonians wouldn’t exist in the wee hours of the morning if TedMaul wasn’t here, and someone else wasn’t “on one”.

Back on topic. Vic has had a poor season. I haven’t forgotten his Euro-strop. His form has been patchy and he’s missed too many games through suspension. I do think some of his cards have been a little harsh though.

When he is on song he is a beast though. If he won’t sign a contract extension (which would be my preferred option) then we should take the best offer we can get for him.

Think West Ham may be a likely destination for him personally.

Dunno. Probably watch the lion king with him and get him to translate what the pig is really saying.
