Bewildered

A quick recovery from Peach after he nearly got suckered in by that hoax photo (despite having been to Spurs training ground to do a number of press conferences)

IF John Cross is to be believed we won't have 11 players by the time the season starts, let alone 11 good ones.

Can't see any indication from the mirror that they have any such story besides a couple of scousers on twitter saying the Mirror tweeted it, then "mysteriously" deleted it. we'll find out soon if there is anything in it as the mirror start putting up new articles around 10:30 Edit: Mirror has done its nightly update, nothing on Lallana.

What did Rodriguez say? I completely forgot he was being interviewed today.

Read this, investigative, hard hitting piece from Ben Smith about Cortese (penned a month before his departure in the midst of early MP to Spurs rumours.) http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25420261 Not sycophantic drivel at all, nope.

Yep, nothing worrying about Cortese still maintaining close contact with our best players...

This seems to be the source of the latest rumour Transfer Related ‏@TransferRelated 3h BREAKING: I'm told Manchester Utd agree fee with Southampton & agree personal terms with Luke Shaw. Deal to be announced before World Cup.

Alan Nixon @reluctantnicko @ChrisHamerton Hear both have been sacked. Surprise to me. Must be a reason. But not obvious at this stage.

Daily Star Written by Alex Crook I am not convinced as to the article's credibility.

They nicked that from Tancredi Palmeri, king of bullsh*t.

http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/PR/ptsgain.html 17 points gained from losing positions (11 of those under Sherwood). Southampton: 6 points with 0 wins http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/PR/ptslost.html 6 points lost from winning positions (2 of those in games managed by Sherwood). Southampton: 20 points lost Don't know I would want Sherwood, but that is not really a fair angle of attack.

The same article he posted a week ago btw.

Such arrogance.

Even if he rejects the offer and goes to Spurs I don't think you could accuse the board of not showing ambition. If it is true of course.

Up until yesterday the Telegraph were acting like it was virtually a guarantee MP would go there. Now, apparently, MP will have to wait until the club has spoken to De Boer and seen whether or not Carlo Ancelotti can keep his job at Real Madrid, making it seem like MP is very much the third choice for Spurs.

He can be excused for looking miserable, Rancho is pretty bad.

Looking like Sam Allardyce might be available soon...

One for saints, and one for England. http://www.whoscored.com/Players/21683/Fixtures/Adam-Lallana

Funny they say that when Sherwood did give a few of the younger players a chance and yielded positive results.
