SO16_Saint Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 (edited) EDIT: May be worth changing the title of the thread Edited 12 July, 2016 by SO16_Saint Bertrand extension, not a new signing :)
SO16_Saint Posted 12 July, 2016 Author Posted 12 July, 2016 New 5 year contract for Bertrand. As good as :)
S-Clarke Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Great stuff, another long-term contract handed out to a key first team player.
Chez Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 now that is what I call a signing. Fantastic move by the club. No doubt these new contracts are costing us a fortune, but the extra TV money is there and it always was going to go straight to players.
Guided Missile Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 England left-back Ryan Bertrand has committed his future to Southampton, signing a new five-year contract.

No doubt these new contracts are costing us a fortune, but the extra TV money is there and it always was going to go straight to players. This is also a very good point, people shouting wanting us to spend xxx (we've got all this money left over etc etc) but these contracts are as good as, it's a massive benift to be able to sign this guys to learn term - it's a better use of the finance we have.
Shroppie Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Superb news. As important as any new signing. England camp's tapping-up not working any more? Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Ulrich van Gobbel Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 This is f***ing phenomenal news! I was aware that Uncle Les hadn't made the flight to Washington.. So this must have been why. Now let's get Tadic tied down!
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 This is f***ing phenomenal news! I was aware that Uncle Les hadn't made the flight to Washington.. So this must have been why. Now let's get Tadic tied down! And Long, too.

ALWAYS_SFC Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 And i thought we were told by the "experts" he was off too.... Good work Les and SFC...
Shroppie Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Hopefully will also encourage Long, Tadić etc to do likewise. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
Turkish Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Les Reed is useless and doesn't know what he is doing.
St.JonB Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Really good news. He must feel very settled with us. Our next captain after Fonte as well.
Whitey Grandad Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 This is f***ing phenomenal news! I was aware that Uncle Les hadn't made the flight to Washington.. So this must have been why. Now let's get Tadic tied down! Man crush? Great news about Bertrand. At least somebody is pleased to be here.
saintoaks Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Good words from Ryan, all the top lads are believing in what is happening behind the scenes. Big statement this, Tadic and Long next please. Feel good factor returning after some big losses.
Fitzhugh Fella Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Can some one post a like to the contract thread where all the players length of contracts are updated please?
Wade Garrett Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Excellent news. Les proving everyone wrong again.

Saint Garrett Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 The remaining who are out of contract the summer after next... 2018 Harry Lewis Yan Valery Richard Bakary José Fonte - Deserves a new deal. Maya Yoshida Florin Gardoș Jordan Turnbull Will Wood Ollie Cook Alfie Jones Oriol Romeu - Get him tied down on a new 4 year deal, good squad player. Harrison Reed - Depending on how he develops this season, Armani Little Thomas O'Connor Callum Slattery Harley Willard Tyreke Johnson Josh Sims Sam McQueen Dusan Tadić - Wouldn't be surprised if he left, but want him to sign a new contract just so we get some money for him. Olufela Olomola Shane Long - Important first team player, get him tied down long term. Sam Gallagher Ryan Seager
Toadhall Saint Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Les Reed is useless and doesn't know what he is doing. We're run like a ****ing B&B don't ya know!

S-Clarke Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Words? Link please. "I'm very pleased," he said. "It's been a fantastic move for me since the day I came to this club and I look forward to many more successful years and really pushing forward. "I've enjoyed my football here. I've really enjoyed the club, and the fans have been fantastic with me personally as well, so I couldn't think of any better place to play football and to keep on developing. "The club is always thinking forward and I really want to be a part of that, and I am sure we can go on to achieve even better things." Bertrand explained that seeing Virgil van Dijk, Fraser Forster, James Ward-Prowse and Steven Davis also sign new long-term deals in recent weeks and months had given him further encouragement for the years ahead. "It was massive," he said. "To see all the boys sit down and commit, I knew I wanted to do it from the start too, and thankfully we've got it done. "It's such a good moment, but I'm looking forward to just getting on with the football now and when we come back for pre-season really going again."

Pamplemousse Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Anyone else getting a tad bored of these summer meltdowns? I rather enjoy Alpine's meltdowns
doddisalegend Posted 12 July, 2016 Posted 12 July, 2016 Great stuff. Just goes to show that that the club is happy to keep good players who want to stay.
