Probably be announced tomorrow now that it's gone 9pm, love to be proved wrong though!

[Saint Charlie]

Not happening tonight. #ourdreamisonhold

[Nolan]

Or we could be going back to the old methodology of getting extra web hits by releasing the story after the presses are rolling.

[Beckenham Saint]

Lovren was announced at half nine last year....

[Saint Charlie]

Lovren was announced at half nine last year....

 

Because we were trying to **** off the Echo I think.

[Monk]

It is done

 

Pelle has stalled predominately because of this deal.

[Saint Charlie]

It is done

 

Pelle has stalled predominately because of this deal.

 

Just because of time spent on this one?

[S-Clarke]

It is done

 

Pelle has stalled predominately because of this deal.

 

Assuming with the interest from other clubs, it was seen imperative to just focus on this and get this over the line.

[Bearsy]

It is done

 

That'll do for me! Welcome to Southampton, Susan!

[Donatello]

It is done

 

Pelle has stalled predominately because of this deal.

 

Thanks, Monk, truly.

[badgerx16]

Adam who ?

[Monk]

Just because of time spent on this one?

 

Yes sorry. Not because of funds just man power/time. We expected to close the Pelle deal before this.

[TwoPints]

That'll do for me! Welcome to Southampton, Susan!

 

 

LOL ... you do make me larf Bearsy

[Turkish]

Assuming with the interest from other clubs, it was seen imperative to just focus on this and get this over the line.

 

Remember we can only do one deal at a time ;-)

[Restark19]

Yes sorry. Not because of funds just man power/time. We expected to close the Pelle deal before this.

 

when can we expect an announcement? tomorrow or later in the week?

[Ed Rooney]

It is done

Cheers Monk

[Bucks Saint]

Thanks Monk, top news

[Ed Rooney]

Yes sorry. Not because of funds just man power/time. We expected to close the Pelle deal before this.

 

Pelle deal still a goer though ?

[SNSUN]

That'll do for me! Welcome to Southampton, Susan!

 

Is that a typoo?

 

Umm, that wass a typo.

 

So was that.

 

It'll be nice to get this first signing over the line. Maybe the powers that be will get a liking for it and keep doing it. Like an addiction. An addiction to signing players. Just like anyone that plays FM ever.

[Cascadia Saint]

It is done

 

Pelle has stalled predominately because of this deal.

 

Get in there!

[Olallana]

So it´s true....we can only work on one deal at a time....

[SuperMikey]

Is it time for a "Song for Tadic" thread yet?

[Lallana's Left Peg]

All the people on twitter falling for the @Southamptonn account

[Cascadia Saint]

So it´s true....we can only work on one deal at a time....

 

It's hard work trying to run a b&b and buy players at the same time. Now Les has to set the table for tomorrow morning...

[itchen_dan]

Cheers Monk!

[Saint Charlie]

Dutch Journo for VI confirms he is in Southampton and has a medical tomorrow.

 

 

@peterwekking: Dusan Tadic is gearriveerd in Southampton. Morgen ondergaat hij medische keuring.. Zie VI.nl. #fctwente

[doggface]

Get in. He looks a player, big signing for us.

[Toadhall Saint]

Excellent, looks like a good player. Hope we can keep Ramirez and get the best out of them both. Great creative options. Now for more pace and firepower.

 

Blind, Caulker, Vlaar, Pelle, Ings, Tadic, Redmond.

 

That'd make me happy, even if we lose Morgan and Lovren I think overall the squad would be as strong as last year. All feasible except Blind I imagine. I like Vlaar, he seems an old fashioned defender, plus it would really annoy Villa fans.

 

Work with a villa fan, can't speak highly enough about Vlaar.

[Toon Saint]

Lovely stuff. Very excited to watch him in a Saints shirt.

[KingdomCome]

Very good news, looks like an exciting player.

Maybe hear about Pelle completing his move soon if this deal was causing delays

[TwoPints]

Here's another one:

 

Enschede - The transfer of FC Twente player Dusan Tadic to Southampton is around. The clubs have come to an agreement and the player has been given yes to the Premier League club. As is known, Ronald Koeman, the star player of FC Twente wanted to add to his squad.

 

Southampton pays an amount between 14 and 15 million euros for Tadic.

 

The Serbian winger is currently already in England. If he successfully completes the medical examination tomorrow (Tuesday), he will then put the signature on the contract with the English club. Tadic may possibly already anyhow Wednesday for the first time at Southampton.

 

Tadic finally played two seasons for FC Twente. Before he came to the Netherlands in action for FC Groningen.

[Saint Jude]

hopefully.. we did it that way.. because Ron was more confident in the Pelle deal going on hold... i.e. he's his mate...and it still going through... ready for his press conference at the end of the week..

14m euros in three installments.

[CB Saint]

Now we have a Serb on the team, dejan will defo want out.

[Wade Garrett]

He doesn't appear to have any tattoos.

 

Does the the club have their own official tattooist? Ginger Toms in Bedford Place would be an excellent choice. Apparently, Cortese sent Lovren there to have the Champions League trophy inked on his foreskin.

[VectisSaint]

So it´s true....we can only work on one deal at a time....

You'd think with a woman in charge we could multi-task.

[angelman]

Excellent, and given the way things have been going, an easy opportunity to make yourself a bit of a hero. Never known someone who has been more wanted by the fans. Yes slightly desperate, but not accepting any old player for the sake of it. And hopefully a real boost for Koeman as well, what with the board going and getting his main target (and I hope I am not speaking too soon here).

[trousers]

I thought Monk had retired from the ITK circuit?

[Heisenberg]

[JoeShmoe]

Great news, hopefully the first of a few, including Pelle, bit worrying the club can only do one deal at a time though when you'd hope given th money and needs we have we'd have multiple irons in the fire

[Viking Warrior]

Whose Susan ? Have we signed johnny cash ?

[The Cat]

So I'm back from 5 a side and it's done. Clearly that non-smiley faced post about handing my season ticket back was enough to kick Saints into action to get the deal over the line.

 

I'm taking the credit for this one.

[Viking Warrior]

Nothing on sky

 

Good to see monk post though .

[davesaint]

Sorry I might be thick but how do we know for sure this is done and dusted?

Very decent signing by the looks of things, hopefully first of the many required. Hopefully these instalments don't lead to a difficult financial situation for the new board to manage!
