Especially considering the main soundbites coming out of the club was how we'd been monitoring him for years too. Also given the amount of money Koeman spaffed at Everton where pretty much every one of his signings were fucking awful, I don't believe for one second he'd be capable of finding a Mane or a Tadic.

I would generally speaking, agree with that. But Van Dickhead was also our star player and also appeared in club promo's then left that same year. At the time, I wouldn't have said in a million years the club would have put him in promos given everything that went on at that time either, but they did. Having said that, we do seem to be going in pretty hard with Danny Ings branding right through the club since he signed, he's even got his own clothing range ffs, so it is a weird one.

My thoughts too. Who was it on here who said he was signing for Arsenal because he's wanted to be near London or something? Whoever that was got that wrong. Also... Why leave here to sign a 1 year deal there? It's not even as if they're in the champions League is it? And are Leicester really offering THAT much more than us in wages to a player they're only prepared to offer a one year deal to? It's weird.

We're not quite the player magnet people seem to think we are. We've got no money and we've just had a piss poor season. This transfer window is going to be like that bloke who chats up all the hotties on the dancefloor but ends up going home with the fat bird at the end. This window is going to be tough.

We're not fucking spurs mate.

Look right. Some bloke mentioned 4 players above. Aarnholt is being linked with Barca. Newcastle look nailed on for Willems. Alioski is leaving Leeds United and somehow I think he's aiming better than us. And Manchester United wouldn't let Williams go 4 months ago. And as for Henry we can't offer Brentford anywhere near the sort of money that would excite them for one of their best players. I don't know who people think we're going to sign.

He ain't worse than Bertrand ffs 😅 Anyway... Back to work. 🤣

If someone can suggest to me a LB who can come straight in and do a job who we (Southampton football club) could realistically sign who is better than Danny Rose... I'm all ears.... 😅

lmfao. People turning their noses up at Danny Rose. Christ.

Lmao. We're fucking Southampton mate. Who are we getting at LB that's better than Danny Rose?? I would snap his hand off if he was willing join us. Fucking hell, Danny Rose not a good enough starting LB for us. 😅

Not sure I'd even give Koeman credit for those. I'd say they were already identified by Paul Mitchell. And let's be honest, he was the blackbox.

I did.

He was supposed to be the next Mane. Blokes nowhere near. His first touch is proper shit.

What on earth are you going on about mate? 😅

Can you imagine this place if we were right up against it and Ralph took off one of our main attacking threats for Romeu...

Tuchel? Are you for real? You think Tuchel would lose 15 out of the last 21 and concede nearly 70 goals? I'm not even mentioning the other obvious statistic.

He needs to drop his asking price by at least £50m. At least.

They aren't getting those prices off the back of that season. They'll sell some but they're going to struggle.

I just got that as an email from the club. No thanks. I'll pass. That season we've just had ffs.

It's all moot anyway. The club would have made Ralph aware of the circumstances of Nivea's departure and the general breakdown with the fans and I don't believe we were ever in for him. It all smacked of the usual agent bollocks. And/or media putting 2+2 together because he's an ex player of ours.

I genuinely thought Ings would get in the provisional one. But he's a serious injury risk to take.

He won't. Have you seen that squad and who he's competing with...

Aaron Ramsdale in that England squad is pure bantz. Haha fucking hell.

Wow.

I wouldn't even consider Nivea purely for the shithouse manner in which he left.
