Good point. Adkins was a keeper wasn't he?

Quality player though. As some have mentioned already the likes of Bale, Ronaldo and Drogba have been renowned for this in the past and managed to change their ways. I saw something the other day saying he's one of the three most fouled players in the league. Maybe it's his way of protecting himself? Think twice before coming near me! Cracking player though.

Timing is everything my friend. He followed him tonight, two hours ago. After all this sh!te today. But maybe it was just an amazing coincidence and really he loves Saints so much and wants to stay forever...

Sorry, that image upload hasn't worked, but basically he's started following Dejan Lovren on Instagram tonight. Whats that all about?!

Victor is pulling out all the stops today. I reckon he's planning to go nuclear ala Lallana and Dejan. Brace yourselves.

£15m? Crikey, that's not much more than they paid for Chambers who only had a handful of first team appearances to his name. I'd be surprised and disappointed if that's all we get.

Neil Ashton at his finest there. Cortese and Poch getting big love from our fave journo. Sounds like Luke wants out, back to London.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3042424/Luke-Shaw-cost-Manchester-United-30million-age-18-happened-favour-youngster.html Luke Shaw parents have spoken to Man U saying he's not being supported by the club...

Koeman to Dortmund as Klopps replacement doesn't sound too ridiculous?

Maybe something HAS happened this past week. First off he's dropped for Hull game. Then he's quoted firstly saying he wants not only CL next season but titles and fa cups(just in case we do make CL?). He also bizarrely claimed this week that Roy Hodgson has told him the England RB spot is his now, bizarre in that even if Hodgson did say that why make it public? I think we all knew he was going but seems to have jumped the gun a bit. Cast you minds back a year though and Luke Shaw stuff was leaking out about this time too. It worked that time so can't blame Man U for doing same again.

A Mirror journo has claimed it's a done deal tonight on an MUTV show. This is so similar to last year, their PR people could at least be original when tapping players up. http://m.101greatgoals.com/blog/transfers/mirror-journalist-mutv-man-united-signed-nathaniel-clyne-tweets/

Embarrassing from a large bunch in block 2 singing if pelle scores we're on the pitch. Shameful stuff and he scored just after. So many bells about, does my head in.

Clyne has not been great lately. Toby will give us some good delivery from that right hand side, lots of diagonal balls I reckon.

Bournemouth are so cute aren't they.

I heard Groves talking about Bally playing him fullback. He said it was a preseason friendly, that's why there's no record.

You ain't seen nothing yet. They're all just warming up their meltdown muscles for when the first player gets sold this summer.

I've seen dozens of much worse performances than Saturdays v Everton by Saints.

Didn't we get Kasey Keller in with a controversial emergency loan once?

I'd take a draw please. Will put us above LFC for a start.

He's 20. Good footballers peak about 26/27. We have some very impatient 'supporters' at Saints.

Not sure if Jake Hesketh has an inside track on our transfer deals but he's followed Odegaard and Memphis Depay in the last 24hrs. Wishful thinking!

I think CylonKing means the unpredictability of what they might do is similar as well as that their physical power (although different in physique) on occasion makes them 'unplayable'. I agree with those that say Mane was ahead on arrival at Saints though. Jones was a center back when we signed him from the caribeann and we converted him to a striker.

Great player for us though, fantastic passer of the ball. Xavi-like in style. The situation with Alderweireld right now reminds me of how disappointed I was when West Ham nabbed Eyal, who had only been on loan. Looks like he picked up a love for Pie and Mash at the Irons!

In this City Am report (posted on another thread) http://www.cityam.com/212830/saints-go-marching-profitability it says KL debt has risen to £70m? But the general consensus on other reports is that the debt stands at £50m. Seeing that Jim Lucas (club employee) is retweeting a link to the above report do we think it's 50 or 70? ?

We may be able to do some business for Jenkinson with Arsenal this summer? German striker Hoffman big guy and very sharp, scored both there goals have him. Also Will Hughes is good every time I see him, would be nice to get some English players as we're getting a bit overrun by the foreign lads.
