del boy

Alright then I'll go for my usual - the decent CB we didn't sign in the Summer

Thats what my sources are telling me also

I see what you've done there - worth a try

Funny how, despite the infamous black box, we get Dutch league players when RK is in charge (Tadic, Pelle, Cuco) and then French league players (Pied, Boufal...) now that Puel is manager - I guess its the old "not what you know...."

Nice to see this penny drop So many on here are desperate for some exciting news - lets just face it no-one knows.... and we shouldn't encourage those attention seekers who speak in riddles about some possible maybe that might just happen - usually involving a player who plays somewhere in some position, but might now be looking to move - we will keep looking in hope though won't we!

Please can we have a really good centre back? I could cut and paste that every Summer Alright, we've got VVD but we still desperately need another one

Wasted on here, people will think you're serious

Well said, but a bit too much like a Saints supporter to be on this forum

you gotta laugh I suppose everyones entitled to a view

nice, thats more like it!

100% right There are quite a few people who'd want you to think they are ITK Many of us go along with the game for a laugh, and there's probably a good psychology thesis in it for someone, but best not take it too seriously By the way, I have it on good authority - thats all I can say

not sure you get this forum a Summer transfer target rumour on the Summer transfer targets thread? wierdo

we're currently in a champions league position if we can just hang on

Ha ha - good one oh wait a minute .....you do know there are no such things on here don't you?

or nothing is happening and he didn't want to muck up his words.....maybe he's just not as ITK as some of us on the forum

I'll take that as endorsement of my ITK status

Just to recap then, for anyone not keeping up....but keep it quiet we're going sign someone sometime

i'm not itk but i've heard he's been a nice manager

And if anyone can make him a better player.....oh

Lets go all in - the house in Winchester AND the watch!!

"Southampton have refused Ronald Koeman permission to speak to Everton about taking over as their manager, according to reports" Read more at: https://www.clubcall.com/everton/everton-face-knock-back-in-manager-chase-1812105.html? Not sure who this "reports" guy is but they seem to get all the inside goss ...clutching at straws maybe

OR, the agent is having to be careful about admitting talks because Saints haven't given Everton permission to speak with their contracted manager?

From todays Southampton Echo "Saints would have to give Koeman permission to speak with Everton and no formal approach has yet been made.Reports coming out of Everton concur that Koeman has not spoken with the Toffees"
