Rudi Skacel is back in the Saints squad.

Rudi Skacel has returned to the fold after talks with Mark Wotte, its well known that Skacel wanted a move during the transfer window, but in fairness to the player he has always given his all for the club and could be vital in the run in.

In truth you cant blame him for wanting a move, he has often been a scapegoat when things have gone wrong and at 29 he hasnt got much time to play at the top level and indeed force his way back into the Czech squad for next years World Cup.

But he can be an asset for Saints during the coming weeks, whilst Lee Molyneaux looks to be the left back, it needs an experienced player in front of him and with the injury to Lee holmes there doesnt seem to be much of that, I would begger the question who would you prefer, Ryan Smith or Skacel ?
