Fairly sure you called the Charlie Austin transfer first... Really hope this is true! Looking back, he called the Austin transfer on 14th Dec 2015... Charlie Austin 8 mill, just what we need ;) I am now officially hopeful (after a brief period of England-related misery) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint IQ Posted 27 June, 2016 Share Posted 27 June, 2016 we wont sign OxO. we will try and get out gunned by West Ham or Everton and that will be that we will get someone from France to replace Mane Maybe he wants to come back and get European football. Looking at the odds for his next club Leicester seem a more likely destination than those two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les will probably do one of his many YouTube interviews where he tells us all that the signing is in the bag at the same time that Oxo is being driven up the M6.

Badger Posted 27 June, 2016 Share Posted 27 June, 2016 Surprised we haven't been linked to the little winger from Midgytland, Pione Sisto, who played against us last year. He received some good right ups after they beat Man Utd and has been linked with a move to a bigger league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADutchSaint Posted 27 June, 2016 Share Posted 27 June, 2016 The French league is the land of hope is it seems after Kante and Payet. Sure there are good players in that league but it's getting a bit ridiculous cause the league ain't that good and is by far the weakest from the big leagues in Europe.

We can't afford him He's on what maybe £100k a week?, we could easily offer him £70-80K I reckon and it would be totally worth it, plus better than him sitting on the bench. Who knows, maybe his priorities will have changed and he's realised the grass isn't always greener. If as claimed he's surplus to requirements then he's going to have to take a pay cut to move to anyone as it's unlikely he'll get another big/top four club.

saint-crinny Posted 28 June, 2016 Share Posted 28 June, 2016 Berahino? Great talent, terrible attitude. Hardly think this site is gospel, but ultimately, if he did come and we got him playing to his potential, he's an exciting player. We'd get a couple of good seasons out of him before he decided he was too good for us I expect, which is pretty standard these days. http://www.expressandstar.com/sport/west-bromwich-albion-fc/2016/06/28/west-brom-transfer-news-southampton-want-to-replace-sadio-mane-with-saido-berahino/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajjuk Posted 28 June, 2016 Share Posted 28 June, 2016 Talented player, but not sure he fits our profile of player. I think this is more Saints have cash -> who can we link him to.

Jose has, according to the press, already said Morgan isn't in his plans. So if he wants to play he will have to move and take a pay cut. No big clubs will likely be interested so why not come back here we could offer him Mane's contract and regular game time. I guess Morgan might feel like coming back represents failure but I reckon saints fans would welcome him back with open arms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Morgan might feel like coming back represents failure but I reckon saints fans would welcome him back with open arms I certainly would and we were prepared to give Mane the biggest saints contract ever, so why not give that to Morgan. We need some names, I know we shouldn't buy just on 'names' but if those names are also quality players like Morgan and the Ox are, then they would go a long way to comforting the fans to bring those two fan favourites back. A statement of 'Intent' if you like. Plus both might be more reluctant to hop off to the next big club that comes knocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton... He has spent his career trying to get his big move, now that he's had it I'm not sure you'll see the same level of performance from him that we saw when he was here, and I don't think he's worked that hard for that contract to then take a pay cut 12 months later.
