Football & Robben's sending off!

Weekend was not good from Southamptons point of view. Burley has now made it four defeats out of six in a side that had only lost three previously all season. I still think he's the man for the job but our play-off hopes are all but ended. Theo looks to be heading off to Arsenal for £15 million. On a previous post I indicated he will be the next big thing, but for a 16 year old who could be the next Theirry Henry (good) or Chris Armstrong (bad) it's too much money to turn down.
Finally Arjen Robben made me smile on Sunday. Sent off for a 2nd yellow for jumping into the crowd when Chelsea scored. I would feel that it's harsh had it either been the last minute or a wonder goal, but this was a shot that would have easily been stopped had the Sunderland defender not headed it past his own keeper. You should not celebrate a goal like that let alone run into the crowd. A decent individual would say bad luck to the hapless defender and then run back to the half way line. He deserved to go! Rant over and let's hope Saints retunr to winning ways next weekend.
