I just copied and pasted a scorers list. Which two are you saying aren't strikers? Brighton's and/or Havertz?

In any case, the point stands even if you take them out of the list.

They are if they score goals.

Havertz played up front most of last season.

Yup and will do this season as well it seems.

Can't see it. They're very much looking for a RJ back-up unless they plan on moving him to RCB which would be ridiculous. 

I have absolutely no clue what kind of fee we'd demand though, 3 years left and our best player alongside the other WP.

[Dusic]

Think KWP'a agent is working overtime to get him and move or a bumper new contract.

Either way, Saints in a very strong position and what a success story his signing has been.

From fans not being sure he was worth even signing on loan to an England call up and likely to make a huge profit on him when he does go.

About the ideal Saints signing template.

Would be a shame to see KWP playing backup to James all season, would be a complete waste as he’s really kicked on in the last 2 years. Similarly, they have the buy back clause on Tino in a year so if they take KWP, I’m assuming that means they won’t be coming in for Tino on top of that otherwise they have 3 class right backs fighting it out for 1 position

[SuperSAINT]

The thing about KWP being linked to the big boys is… this IS our USP.

It is Southampton's sales pitch to players, but it isn't a USP as it isn't unique.

He never said ‘unique’, you just assumed. He actually meant ‘uncommon’.

Genuine question, if you could swap KWP for 2 of Broja, CHO and Colwill would you?

Probably if Tino was fit. I legitimately believe that KWP is our biggest attacking threat.

His versatility and real capability to play both sides should put his price at 50m+!!! 

But the media will always down play the price when a bigger club is buying from a smaller one and vice versa!!

[warwicksaint]

Should tell them to absolutely do one at that price

[JRM]

Are we back in the running for the net spend trophy? 

[SuperSAINT]

Crazy if we sell him for a smidge more than the rumoured Spurs buy-back clause.

[alehouseboys]

“A deal for the England international could be possible at around £30-35m”

At that price I’d say it would only be a ‘deal’ if they’re also bunging in one of Broja, Colwill or CH-O

[HarvSFC]

If they can put £50m down on Cucurella, you'd hope we'd expect them to do the same for KWP, especially given the English price boost.

[tajjuk]

If Brighton aren't accepting less than £50 million for Cucurella them KWP is clearly worth more than that. He's more experienced in this league, English, can play comfortably both sides as well and out performed him last year.

Exactly. Not to mention he's first choice here and wouldn't be at Chelsea.

I mean you’d be looking at roughly 30 mil for broja, 15 for Colwill and no idea CHO, 25 mil? Is KWP worth 70 mil? Naaa he’s not

To us he is. I'd even say he's worth more than that to us.

Point is though if Chelsea came offering even 50-60 million there’s no way we’d turn that down

In fairness Cucurella has just signed a new contract, his underlying creation stats were very impressive and he is equally as versatile (just not in the same positions as KWP). 35m is about right for KWP and if he wants to go we should let it happen and back our set up to replace him accordingly. Value wise, KWP’s price is only going down after this summer unless he signs a new contract. If he doesn’t fancy it however then wonderful but I suspect, as most footballers do, he’ll back himself to make a success of it (if it’s a genuine offer).

It's pretty clear that Bednarek, Lyanco, Stephens, Djeneppo, Elyounoussi, and Redmond are not good enough and as such we won't get what you might want for them. I'd guess 4 of them will most go back abroad (which in itself reduces the price), whereas Stephens could do a job in tbe Championship. Redmond would probably be good enough for someone like Fulham or Bournemouth or High Championship team. 

I reckon we'd be lucky to get 25-30m for the lot.

i know Mo doesn't always impress, but he did score 8 goals in all competitions. That was tied for 2nd on the team, if I recall, last season.

4 of those goals were vs lower league teams. Scoring a hattrick vs 4th tier Newport County doesn’t mean you aren't out of your depth in the Premier League.

But scoring against Tottenham and Newcastle probably does?

[LiberalCommunist]

Five days till we start, and still rampant speculation. Still a feeling of 'have we done enough.' Not unhappy with the business we have done this summer, but we need to hit the ground running, that is for sure. This is going to be a very tough season, but I still have high hopes that our mid season run will save us once again.

That's good - hopefully the club have stuck a £60m+ valuation on his head and told them to fook off

[S-Clarke]

Chelsea's approach to this window seems to be like playing Football Manager.

Start a search, put a filter on for specific positions, sort by reputation. Bid, bid, bid. See who accepts first.

[Andy Drain]

Strikers i think are really possible for us in my opinion....Broja, Pukki, Dennis,Delap. Any of these plz 👍

There is a lot of hope pinned on Delap. I remember his Dad but has the son ever done anything in Premier Lg or the Cup to get excited about? 

[FarehamSaintJames]

Again. KWP won’t be going anywhere.

Agent/paper talk doing the rounds. No more than that.

We won’t be signing Pukki, nor should we, a million miles from our strategy.

Bit mad to think that we started last season with their 4th choice right back being picked ahead of a guy they want to sign for £35m

Fucking hell, not ideal if Matt & Jeremy are saying we want £35m.
