SaintRichmond Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I suppose this could be the marquee signing. Can't see it happening though unless we break the bank and the wage structure and risk upsetting the current squad. Why ?? Has Les Reed been spotted in Oswald Baily's then ??
Batman Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 We do, but if we replace Lovren well, then we're not miles behind last season. Add a good striker and we'll look alright. Ideally we'd get more but I don't see some mad rush to spend to avoid relegation (if Schneiderlin and Rodriguez stay). Probably spent in January this time if the money is there and we're not doing that well. Right now I'd take Forster, rojo and Hernandez! I reckon it will be forster and van dijk in a double swoop. Nathan redmond (and fer?) also with Hernandez coming in on loan for the season with what ever player is chucked our way from inter in the swap with ossie then another addition in jan with morgan and jay staying (hopefully

This is both desirable and very possible from my point of view.
scotty Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Are we signing someone today or not? If yes I'll lay of the booze. If no, then I'll tuck in and fall asleep. I suspect that most of us will be increasing our alcohol intakes this season. New corporate sponsor...."Southampton FC, proud to serve Carlsberg Special Brew...."
Turkish Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I suspect that most of us will be increasing our alcohol intakes this season. New corporate sponsor...."Southampton FC, proud to serve Carlsberg Special Brew...." Remember when mercedes were unveiled as being our official car sponsor or something meaningless and its was hailed as great news by some on here :lol:
SuperSAINT Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Doesn't sound like Hernandez is off to Atletico. Their president had this to say: "Many names have been mentioned, but none of those players, neither Cazorla, Callejon, Torres nor Chicharito (Hernandez) are on our agenda. If we sign another player, it won't be any of them."
pimpin4rizeal Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I reckon it will be forster and van dijk in a double swoop. Nathan redmond (and fer?) also with Hernandez coming in on loan for the season with what ever player is chucked our way from inter in the swap with ossie then another addition in jan with morgan and jay staying (hopefully Even though i suggested hernandez a couple of months ago before the departures,i dont think its very likely at all now..lets be honest at the moment we are the laughing stock of the league,you only have to type southampton into twitter to read 50 jokes about us having our squad ripped apart.couple that with the interest from athletico madrid and napoli the chances of convincing him to come here look pretty bleak.
mulletsaint Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I hope we can stick an 's on the end of both of those positions...as we need a hell of a lot more than just 2! My thinking exactly.
ART Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 How have we missed out on this guy. He was amazing for France in the World Cup. Would be one sure way of keeping Morgan.

SuperSAINT Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 any credible rumours? guan kk? Will be interesting if RK drops any names after the game tonight.
Goatboy Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 If he couldn't agree a deal at QPR his wage demands must be ludicrous.
Window Cleaner Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 If he couldn't agree a deal at QPR his wage demands must be ludicrous. 10million euros net over the 3 seasons, about 50K£ a week I suppose. About turn after he asked DD what to do (same agent). Go for the CL lad.
Olallana Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Another one in soon x soon as in.....tomorrow, during weekend, beginning next week...?
twiglet Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Crap Lungs give is a clue, like a first initial or hair colour or no one will believe your rumours! Anyone can come on here and say, on in soon x isn't that obvious?
Saint_Ash Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Another one in soon x Soon can be three hours or days and when it comes in you're all itk.
madruss Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Possibly tomorrow Gotta love a Friday transfer! Cheers Crab

Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 There's definitely something being worked on. I was told there may be an announcement tonight but I think it's a bit too late now. My source won't reveal names this time. I did wonder if we were after Jenkinson on loan as WHU have just announced his arrival.
JxgrSaint Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 @bigadamsport: Ronald Koeman: "I spoke to Morgan two days ago - he's a Southampton player, will continue to be a Southampton player & should play v Bayer"
S-Clarke Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 @bigadamsport: Ronald Koeman: "I spoke to Morgan two days ago - he's a Southampton player, will continue to be a Southampton player & should play v Bayer" Now that is brilliant news.
Toadhall Saint Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Now that is brilliant news. Best in a long while
Batman Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Now that is brilliant news. I honestly think (well, hope) that morgans tweet the other night was hi sounding off and being very frustrated that a move was cancelled at the last min but I cant see him being the type to let that fester. He will move, January at the earliest but he will need to continue his great form to seal that move
S-Clarke Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 A good news few days ahead? We are in need of it, for sure.
SuperSAINT Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 A good news few days ahead? We are in need of it, for sure. THIS.
hypochondriac Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 @bigadamsport: Ronald Koeman: "I spoke to Morgan two days ago - he's a Southampton player, will continue to be a Southampton player & should play v Bayer" Great news. Will probably go in January or next year but that's not a problem if he can help us now.
hackedoff Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 @solentsport: Ronald Koeman: "We are close to signing two or three players & I hope to do that this weekend" #saintsfc Forster and the two from Norwich.
Toon Saint Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Forster and the two from Norwich. Do we need Fer? Got plenty of options at CM as it is.
SB Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 'My source' always make me chuckle, I predict a number of players in between now and September one
Killers Knee Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I'm going for the two at celtic and Redmond this
Toadhall Saint Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I'm going for the two at celtic and Redmond They'd do
Viking Warrior Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I will believe it when guan starts posting smileys again Although it has been said by the end of the week . Guan said 4 to 6 with one dependent on another :)
Batman Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I'm on it, two will be known, one will be a shock. Names For fuk sake Shock as I'm shyte or a coup?
hypochondriac Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 I'm going for the two at celtic and Redmond Would be happy with that.
S-Clarke Posted 31 July, 2014 Posted 31 July, 2014 Funny you should mention Volland, there was a random tweet on him earlier about him being on his way to a Southern club, but was promptly deleted. Could mean anything though!
