So are we going to have a sudden influx of exciting players come in? Who knows. Is Koeman gonna splash the best part of £100m? Who knows. But can we have some more rumours please! Twitters? Anything to get more excited about the upcoming season.

Kind of destroys what so called ITK and the press have reported.

Pretty honest sounding interview. Lets see the actions first. Based on what he said Koeman has the best part of £90m available to spend on players/wages. I'm not as doom and gloom as I was yesterday.

Bugger me this is all too much!

Surely based on Crab Lungs has posted it makes no sense that we have signed Pelle and Tadic for 18 odd million if they wanted to continue with the bare minimum as well as some of the links with players. Don't believe it. Sorry.

Till one of the front 3 gets injured or hits poor form.

What a pathetic excuse of a board we have. We are likely to be in a relegation battle. What club has ever sold this many players! Even ones that have been relegated. Totally furious with this ineptness at the club!

Same.

Left footed CB who would make Jos look like Kompany.

Unless anyone leaves we don't need a CM. And yeah we need a signing this week.

Firmino was 4th highest goal scorer in Bundesliga last year. Impressive for an attacking midfielder.

As disappointed as I am losing Chambers it is not as bad as the others we've lost. Now we need to put a full stop on the exodus. Invest the money in some signings. Otherwise we are in for a relegation battle.

Any post match comments from Ronald Koeman.

Yeah this angers me more than any of the other sales. Totally rubbishes the 'we sell who we want' vibe.

Bargain.

I stand by my opinion that Cork and Fonte will both defintely sign. Was it Boruc who we were all flapping about last season?

Barca has to be number one. Its pretty awesome though. Certainly number one in the UK by miles.

I would say 100% definitely. Modern facilities (which just got even more modern), promotion of using British players in the first team regularly, big name players who have come through each season (some who have gone onto to play regularly at CL/international levels) development centres in parts of the south (see MLG thread) and a huge scouting team working all over the world also looking at young players. Something to be tremendously proud of and a resource which we will continue to flourish from. Its just a shame that the PL is so money ridden because the chances of a Dortmund or Atheletico are minimal.

Hold fire. We have sold three players and replaced two of them. I bet anything Cork and Fonte will sign on and we are looking at bringing in 4-5 more players. Lovren will leave but I'm sure we'll keep the rest. Keep the faith and don't believe everything put in the rags.

Agreed. He is the best CM we've had in years and one of the best in the league undoubtedly. Despite having very decent cover in the middle it would be a huge blow to lose Morgan and his value is only going to increase as he plays for France. Label a £30m price tag on him and that should fend off the vultures.... Unless Madrid are interested!

He's a big character in the dressing room too apparently. No I don't mean the showers.

I like this post. It's somewhat refreshing. Tampax would be a sponsor on this site.

It's like hormonal women on this thread. On topic now, Clasie would be awesome, would add some creative depth from midfield which we lack. £18m for both, come on Saints spend!

Seriously though can we stick to the topic of 'transfer rumours' and not all this debate about the board etc. Kills me when I see 2-3 new pages and I'm expecting Ronaldo is being linked then its just a load of drivel.

PAH! Top 6 will be a great achievement.
