Was a great strike - he's looking sharp! Really hope he finds form for them this season

J rod just scored an absolute screamer on his debut for West Brom! On sky sports PL now

Probably - Don't buy anyone and keep all prize assets?

- No sign of Bertrand in the latest training video, but VVD still there smiling.. Nice tackle in there from Bednarek on Dusan too!

Sounds like Liverpool may be looking at other CB options - Reports in France (RMC) saying they have made enquiries for Presnel Kimpembe, although PSG have no interest in selling. Believe we were once linked with him?

Would love it if the bin dippers missed out on both their top targets. It looks like Leipzig are standing firm on Keita and not willing to sell unless they receive a silly bid (£70m+). Would Liverpool really splash around £140m on two players?

Nope, next game is Brentford on Saturday

Virgin media now also our shirt sleeve sponsors - https://southamptonfc.com/news/2017-07-16/virgin-media-southampton-shirt-sleeve-sponsorship

Saints have said they don't expect there to be the right facilities at the ground for them to be able to stream the game, so looks like we'll be relying on twitter updates.

Remember Mayuka? He seems to have let himself go a bit!

https://southamptonfc.com/news/2017-07-14/jake-flannigan-southampton-pre-season-austria-contract - Jake Flannigan has signed a six month deal, been given the chance to prove himself after recovering from back to back ACL injuries.

It was actually on an instagram story, basically the same thing. But it was Matt Watson, the official club photographer

Saints will face FC Ausburg on August 2nd and Sevilla on August 5th - Both at St Marys! Tickets are 2 for the price of one - Both games for £12 isn't bad! https://southamptonfc.com/news/2017-07-13/southampton-pre-season-friendlies-augsburg-sevilla-virgin-media

They've agreed a fee with spurs for Walker so that seems to be sorted now.

- Sky sources say city are close to finalising a deal for Benjamin Mendy from Monaco. Would they still be wanting Bertrand to if this is the case?

https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/4000582/chelsea-transfer-news-nathaniel-chalobah-to-join-blues-exodus-in-bargain-5m-deal-with-watford-and-swansea-interested/ No mention of saints being in for Chalobah here, although it does say other prem teams have been alerted to the low price tag. I really hope we make a move for him, definitely a more of a draw than watford or swansea surely!

Stephens, Ward-Prowse, Targett, Cedric and Bednarek I think Sims was injured which is why he couldn't go to the U20s World Cup, I assume he is still recovering from that.

Exactly - it's definitely not best for all parties to let him go. Who cares if he wants to leave, we should hold the power thanks to that 6 year deal he signed last year. Morgan and Wanyama both were seemingly desperate to leave, we forced them to stay and they both ended up having great seasons.

Who says a transfer request is imminent? Is this ITK stuff or just online speculation?
