20 May 2012 10:27:32
19 May 2012 16:47:02 Don't know about this one. Ben foster is quality but we have a decent keeper already in Davis (been in team of the season last 3 seasons running).
19 May 2012 08:20:12 Should have offered j.dovey a professional contract in my opinion. we should have 3 gk and then tried to have signed a 23-25 yo 3/4s experienced gk to replace bialkowski, but as NA says TAO so i respect his decision. Is it just me supprised by jack doveys exit? Not seen johns anyone seen him play? Hope we get rid of forecast I would have kept Dovey on. He's a Saints fan aswell :/ Id pay off forecasts contract myself he must only be on less or equal to £1000 a week and even thats too much, hes getting paid for sitting at home, its a joke, when all the backroom staff spoke highly of dovey. feel sorry for the lad we should start a trend on the social networks to bring him back, he deserves a chance. Actually Forcast has been payed to sit on the bench in the conference south :L Not much difference then is there?
19 May 2012 06:34:09 I genuinely think this post is good, Kasper is linked with QPR but i his dad has advised Kasper that it would be a bad choice because how the club is run. Can't agree with either of those. Particularly Defoe, massive ego who isn't a team player. We already have an excellent finisher in Sharpe, so he wouldn't add anything. Except an inflated wage
19 May 2012 02:06:37 I'm a saints fan and would love for this to happen, brilliant player really underrated but could face competition from other prem clubs
18 May 2012 19:47:59 We have a wage block of £20k per week. so couldnt afford to pay him £45k. and i only know this becuase im friends with a 1st team player Utter tosh Bless, I think everybody knows that 20k isnt true. The wage cap was higher than that in the championship. Which first team player? Just saying that as everyone seems to say they know stewards ..i cant see it happening . theres rumors still going around about lallana to man city , so we'll see in july Think that wage-cap will not exist now were in the Prem, were guaranteed at least 40m this saeason. 45 k a week equals 2.3 mill per year, so well within our means ! There is no premier league pay cap ! Name the first team player you are friends with then mate? Not the same as question above but I know for a fact that Dean Hammond went up to 20-22k a week and that was after promotion and I doubt he is on of the highest earners at the club so I reckon that our wage cap would be nearer the 35k mark but who knows? Yep wage cap was around £25k per week in the championship - thinking back to NC's interview he said that he would pay Prem wages £35k - £50k depending on who and the deal Some are speaking about the possibility of a season long loan deal-could make some sense for both parties. I know a steward but he never has any inside information they never bloody do so how can people be stupid enough to use that as an inside source To the guy saying Lallana to Man City, are you mad? it's a load of rubbish.
18 May 2012 19:35:03 No chance he'll leave. Up and coming star for them.
18 May 2012 19:03:39 Really cant see everton wanting to let go of drenthe, if they do they must be bloody stupid he's been one of thier best players this season Connolly to galatasary don't think some how lol Conolly won't sign a new contract just to be part of another deal.. Good call on the Milan Baros deal - we were looking at him last year Drente is out of contract at real madrid, and will leave on a free as contract not being renewed.
18 May 2012 10:42:27 When did Adkins say he was after a top striker? Owen might be a free agent but can't see Southampton paying the sort of wage he would demand.....he is very injury prone and would be a huge risk. Only way it could happen is if it were a pay as you play deal Complete and utter bulls**t Rubbish, micheal owen is currently on holiday abroard. known fact from owens twitter account Yeh he works in the kitchen at holiday inn. great room service. Owen will stay in the north of england Owen retired 3 years ago.bad signing for any team.hes not intrested in football
18 May 2012 10:08:10 Stekenlenburg, lol. dont think so some how. may as well say were intrested in petr cech, not a chance I heard Joe Hart fancied being near the sout coast, Casillas wants to play in the premiership but only for a team ending OUTHAMPTON, and with saints the only team ending in that it looks like a likely deal. Lloris and Mandanda also looking to move for the weather. All of these are plausible
18 May 2012 07:14:29 Connolly has been offered a new 1 year contract The martin who plays for France and is linked to Champions league clubs? really? :L Bialkowski won't leave Nigel has a lot of faith in him. Tommy Forecast on the other hand...
17 May 2012 17:47:53 Wrong place. and spelling on Courtois. To comment above: Courtois is from chelsea. He's on loan at Atletico. I assume you mean Falco back to spurs Falque wont join. Only just joined spurs and would only do a job similar to Guly. If Nigel really rated him, he would have had more then the 1 appearance last season. Oh and clyne? the young rightback at palace that Nigel identified as the chink in their armour? he wont sign. Expect a foreign rightback to sign. Falque back to spurs? Do you perhaps mean Iago Falque??
17 May 2012 14:03:42 I dont Rate Trotter and really dont think that is the sort of player we need coming into the Prem.
17 May 2012 11:26:54 Get over it he's passed his best a big gamble with his fitness not worth the risk with the wages he would want. Pass His wages are stupidly high though. ^^ lol he wont go to southampton Hasn't played in I do not know how long, much like the Bridge rumours, this would be a player on high wages who has no match sharpness anymore, 2 or more years out of a team does not make for good footballers Someone will have to take a gamble, and no big club would, owen will have to get over it and realise hes past his best, i can see him coming southampton if no one else offers him anything. or will he end up in MLS ? {Ed001's Note - would he leave his horses behind?} Neither will he move south away from his horses nor do we want him at Saints! Horses won't be a problem. He can deal with those from wherever he is in the UK, it's not a big country. He will go wherever offers him Prem football. If he came to saints he might even get some advice on the GeeGees from Mick Channon! Thanks to above comment, im glad someone has finally agreed with me that owen is worth a shot, how many one on ones has owen ever put wide ? not many, natural finisher, and if he stays fit, then he will cause so many problems in the prem The wages wont be an issue. End of the day he would need to a vast cut where ever he goes, he needs to understand its a pay cut or no club, therefore no pay at all. Don't want him, too injury prone, and Sharp is a goal poacher who is young, keen and ready to prove himself!
17 May 2012 10:22:21 £5M ed? You clearly havn't watched him ply very often. No chance Ed your wrong. he is worth more than 5 million. he is still young and good luck to anyone trying to buy him for 5 million. i agree, 20 is a lot, and city wouldnt be interested. but 5 is way way too low. {Ed001's Note - I would say anything over 10m, if it was me.} I don't believe that post either Ed037. But I think your comment is way off the mark too you cheeky git. 100,000 to sit on the reserves nicely done Where do you people get this bollox from They can have him... £10 million + richards, and adebayor on loan for the season with city paying his wages like they did when he was at spurs last season.. theres the offer man city , take it or leave it . lol No way is chamberlain better than lallana I'm a saints fan and he's right lallana isn't worth more then 10million he's good but he's not the value or the potential of chamberlain lallana is key to are team and I would put it about 7-8 million but we won't sell him unless he asks to leave and like chamberlain we wouldn't let him go cheaply I think 8million is a fair estimate Saints fan here, Lallana , will in time be a fantastic player, not just killsfull but has a great football brain. Chamberlain has the raw attributes to be great with pace, strength and 2 feet but the brain of a typical greedy winger. He will be great under Wenger if his ego doesn't inflate. But I seriously doubt Southampton would have been promoted this season had he remained. Yes he's exciting and gets goals, but he's not a team player yet and has a lot to learn. Lallana was streets ahead when they were in the same team. No point arguing who is better now or will be better, they are different kinds of players. It's like arguing over John Barnes or Le Tissier. Lallana is better then Oxlade-Chamberlain. No doubt. I agree that lallana is a great player for Saints.He has one important floor which is the reason why no Prem club has come in for him.....Pace,he just has'nt got it. A player's value is determined by what other clubs are willing to pay, not what the selling club want for him. Not suggesting there's a likeness between the two but Van Der Vaart has no pace whatsoever and he has been pivotal in Spurs' team this season! Lallana's got the quality and skill to be great without pace! If I was given the choice between Lallana and Oxo last summer I'd have taken Lallana any day! Clever players dont need pace.like to see him more central.behind front two Prob behind front 1 cos no prem teams nowadays play 2 centre forwards
15 May 2012 22:00:45 Wants to play in prem? Not good enough and id like to think our sights are set better than that Get real southampton fans you will be back in the chamionship next season stop thinking you are better than you really are this is the club that was playing in league 1 and went bust you make me laugh Haha, he wouldnt even score 10 goals in leauge 1, let alone in the premier leauge. You seem to forget he played in the pl and scored a few goals just didnt get his chance any striker is better than the utter pish you have at the moment And your little team is in League 1, poor old Pompey ! Who the f##k is laughing now? Ha ha He scored like one goal...in about 20 mathces Look at the jealous skates It's funny that Jonathan forte would score more goals than he would
15 May 2012 14:36:53 Can't see it happening to be honest. Could see Chris Eagles fitting in well and assume he still wants to play premier league. Chipped in with 6 goals from midfield in a poor Bolton outfit.
14 May 2012 16:40:37 Can't see why they would look seriously at a player who has suffered such a serious injury. Must be better options. Doesn't mean me wont play and get back to his best, would be good signing for saints because holdens Is a good player He's a good player when fit. The Premiership is not somewhere to take a risk and with squads down to 25 players next season can Saints afford to have one place taken up by someone who might break down? There is a bloke called Drogba..... could get a few goals for us you think? Nah. Spends too long on the floor. Like having 10 men on the pitch. There has been a rumour that Saints will make one signing which will make the Premiership sit up and note their serious intent, like they did years ago with Keegan. However, it is probable that the wages for someone like Drogba would preclude him. Holden would also make Saints much more appealing in the US. Might increase our merchandise revenue quite a lot. I hope not about 1 signing, might sound good but we would go back down, the least amount of players we would need sign to stay in prem would probably be 3 a right back, attacking mid and winger or centre back It means that one of the signings will be out of this world! doesn't mean we will only sign one player! Why he is scottish? {Ed001's Note - he is American, he has US citizenship, not UK.} If he can recover from his injuries this season this would be a great great buy. Works hard for the team, got pace and creativity, not a massive ego and most importantly from what I know of him he is a top, top guy. Seems very grounded, gets on with fans, great work ethic. I know we want quality footballers but we also want players who will fit into our team and the work ethic and team spirit that already pre-exists and has produced back to back promotions.
14 May 2012 13:51:00 Can't see QPR letting them go now they have maintained their Premiership place. Will stay at QPR in the prem Wright-phillips . 100% agreed I wish Wright-Phillips is a one trick pony and his close control is beginning to go. We should get someone on the up. We should get ince, Phillips or zaha maybe Jarvis Why is all the talk off good championship players.need to get top players from prem.norwich and swansea done well but next seasons the big test for them.saints need top players
13 May 2012 23:22:17 If this is true I would like to try and do the deal with the chairman before a new manager is in place but I wouldn't want him personally! Since he only just joined West Brom I really doubt it He was only on a deal till the wnd of the season i think?
13 May 2012 17:31:28 A good young goal keeper why dont we try and sign de vries or hennesey from wolves, and roger johnson while we're at it! My god, please don't let us get hennessey. He's one of the worst keepers I've ever seen. Hennessy is quality Was looking realistic until i saw Barnetta's name! Think barnetta is out of contract and adkins likes getting players like him who work hard and who are not on the public rumour list = e.g = hoivelt fox falque we got them unexepectantly
13 May 2012 12:20:19 ....I think I can safely say we are going to sign better than people from the SPL To the person above whom is saying we will sign better players than SPL fodder. If nikica jelavic at Everton is anything to go buy, that's the player with 9 goals in 12 games. I say Adkins knows far better than you do and I do, so I suggest you go back to arm chair as we don't need supporters you like you! Buy a certain izagurre Didnt Jos Hooiveld come from the SPL!
13 May 2012 11:48:50 Once again, a supporter who has watched the matches this season and has picked out the players in the Championship who he rates.
13 May 2012 05:02:51 Would love Honda for us Top class players, could do alot better than southampton COME ON get real Not realistic, but would love both
12 May 2012 16:59:33 Would be a great signing
11 May 2012 21:53:50 So hope this happens, this is the kind of player Southampton FC need !! Can play all over the pitch as well ... Not exactly reliable, but a few people seem to have seen Whittingham at SMS today, but I didn't. so take it as you will. Could be nothing :) He will not go to southamption just signed new long term contract last year with cardiff plus he won't sign for southamption half way thrugh play offs Would like a bit more pace. Whittingham is class but in much the same vein as Lallana, would like to see a young fast player like Matt Phillips, Hoilett, Tom Ince, Zaha etc.
11 May 2012 09:46:36 Personaly i hope he gets a pay as you play deal. Allways a threat to bring off the bench in the last 20 mins, and would be on tiny wages to. Can deffo still do a job, was allways injured Dont forget that the EPL has a limit to the number of players you can register. Wouldnt want connolly taking up the space of another striker out of sentiment.
10 May 2012 14:58:24 As long as we dont get a dodgy player who has failed at prem level IE Doyle and bring in a player in each position of good quality we will stay up no probs. COYR!!! Lloriente anyone?? You can add Curtis Davis to that list In... Llorente would be great but think man city, Barcelona & real Madrid may have something to say about that one. Let's keep it realistic!! Buterfield and fox are or week links.we got roasted down the flanks
08 May 2012 16:48:14 Great lets bring in a guy that cant get a game elsewhere, that may work when bringing them into the championship but prob not in the prem ! Hes an international, which we haven't got. He played in a world cup semi final To the first reply, look at jos couldn't get a game at Celtic but has been immense for us Like i said may work for the championship but the prem is a whole different ball game, we need experienced quality Premiership players or we will struggle, need at least two seasoned defenders and a new defense coach as some of our play will get torn apart by the pace of the teams up their. Rafeal van der vaart couldn't get a game at real so he went to spurs. I think spurs fans will say that worked out. I think this "it's the prem" thing is being over egged! So your saying you wouldnt be happy if we got robert snodgrass or jordan rhodes because they havnt played in premier leauge, get real mate How would we get a work permit for such a bad player? He has spent the last 5 years within the E.U. and played over 75% of uraguays games in last 2 years, so work permits not an issue, plus he would be a marque signing Why would Benefica loan out a player that was touted in the £20 million transfer category, a regular international? Southampton are a very rich club since their takeover. To the person talking about him being worth 20 million and tracked by chelsea. You are wrong that is alvaro pereira from porto... to be honest its not hard to get the perieras confused due to the top 3 teams in portugal all having periera full backs (joao, alvaro and maxi)
08 May 2012 01:23:10 Fair enough they are doing your head in, but honestly, it's a rumours page, you should expect it. And you can't say check up on the "facts", until it's done it's not a fact, just another rumour. So your just as bad. Numpty Haha check the facts and then comes out with a rumour? Don't think so. Spurs can have him hes utter dross mate! How is 'Spurs signing him' a "fact". It is no more of a fact than Southampton signing him. Unless you have official links provided by either clubs or the player himself qualifying his move to Spurs then shut up because both RUMOURS carry the same weight and truth. He is going to spain Davis won championship keeper of the season over rob green... i will keep him thanks
06 May 2012 19:25:23 With the PREM's 25 man squad limit dont expect to many coming in,and with the clubs comments about using the youth system those who do join the squad will be experienced player. so a few thank you's and good byes to say to jedi,seabourne,connelly,barnard,richardson,puncheon,forecast U21 dont count for the 25 man squad which could be very helpful My ideal transfers... Richardson will not go. Guly has gotta go ugly Brazillian wanna be What same guly who scored 11 goals Guly only turned up at St. Marys! Get rid and make room for some real talent! And same Guly that actually is from Brazil? So how is he a wannabe? Yeah the same guly who cost us several goals toward the end of the season and is generally useless Clyne is defs not coming to saints, big clubs like man u want him Shut up about guly, without his goals we might of been in the playoffs and also stop slating your own players when he has scored 11 Possible Outs - Falque is a definite out, only had him on loan until end of season Guly is awful, the amount of chances that team created he should score more. Worst first touch of Amy brazilian, bottles everything and is scared. Watch the goalmouth scramble away at leeds...hides behind the post. Guly-11 goals in a season, Sharp- 9 goal in 15 games. Without guly we would improve no doubt. Richardson and fote? I'm guessing you ment fonte. Did you actually watch these players? Richardson had a good season and deserves his chance he will not go I would bet my house on that, fonte has had an up and down season but he is a good centre back an deserves his shot he won't go either w also not long ago signed a loner contract all players that did are considers key players Guly-11 goals in a season, Sharp- 9 goal in 15 games. Without guly we would improve no doubt. Sorry i mean Forte hes on loan to some s**t league 1 or 2 club ;) Guly is awful, why is this even being argued? watch the game against reading, he lost everything, he is just lazy apart from very brief (and far, far between) flashes of brilliance. in the premiership, you need to take your chances, like sharp and lambert did, guly hasnt, when he was playing up top with lambert, he missed so many and a lot of his goals are headers anyway. Would like Barnetta, watched him against England and wembley he seemed one of the swiss's better players. Would like to see this happen! Guly is bad lazy scared and pointless sell him bring a person who can actually run and not just stand their hes utter useless. Were better without him. Not being disrespectful to those in the chapel or northem but you really do only see the game from one angle.
06 May 2012 13:11:49 Your right.., and we have hoskins coming thru the ranks along with sinclair! We could do with some pace up front but generally I agree with you. Maybe an AM to take some pressure off lallana who at the moment is our only quality creative player (someone like Hoilett, Matty Phillips, Zaha) My ideal list: My realistic signings: The only one which is unrealistic would be Hoilett, I believe he is destined for a top team but don't rule it out. Maybe Zaha could possibly be unrealistic only because Crystal Palace are asking silly money which Cortese won't be fooled into paying. Nathaniel Clyne has been linked to Manchester City and United, which means Saints aren't likely to compete with those teams but Clyne's contract is up in the summer and if we get in there early you never know, £2.5 million. Others are all reasonable although I don't particularly like Dann/Upson but are Prem players. ^That post started off so promising with "the only one unrealistic would be Hoilett" My realistic signings: So we will get rid of 15 players, maybe bring 2-5 up through the youth (Ward-Prowse, Shaw, Chambers, Stephens, Moore) and maybe bring in 5 players. I agree that the 5 out of contracts will leave only Bartosz Bialkowski may stay on unless we get another keeper. Jaidi will retire, Connelly will go to another team to see out his career. Holmes is wanted by Swindon I believe and Doble hasn't really lived up to what some had hoped for, League 1 player at best. Falque is Tottenham's player, Forte in my eyes is terrible and would happily see him leave. Dickson is 3rd Choice LB and I don't see him having a future here. Forecast is probably worse than me in goal. But Hammond will stay, no doubt about it, we won't be doing a QPR with a complete squad overhaul. Harding will also stay, Seaborne I have never been a big fan but with Jaidi leaving we definitely need a new CB. Butterfield will stay, recently signed a new contract and will provide vital Premier League experience. Puncheon will go, couldn't make the team in the Championship and I feel that he was brought on against Coventry to boost his reputation. Finally Barnard hasn't the quality to play in the Prem (Charlton). To be fair nobody knows who Saints are interested in as everything is done behind closed doors but i feel that we need a new: Why on earth would you want Cole?! i dont know why so many saints fans want him...he is crap "Why on earth would you want Cole?! i dont know why so many saints fans want him...he is crap"
05 May 2012 17:56:21 As if we need a player in every position. The amount of players we've been linked with in 1 week is ridiculous. Imagine how many by transfer deadline day. I predict none of the rumours mentioned so far will occur Would love us to get Clyne. Still young as well so we can teach him the 'Southampton way'. Also, Matt Phillips would be unlikely but if Blackpool were to lose the play-offs I suppose it would be possible. Expensive though one thinks. Again, hes young which would be good. Jarvis?? I'm a saints fan but Blackpool will win the play offs there a great knockout football team they play the ideal way and always score goals home and away. So I can't see us getting any of theres but I would love too see a RB priority then 3 or 4 more with real quality. Maybe from abroad with NCs contacts we will get better value for money in Europe anyway. Every foreign player they've brought in so far has gelled perfectly so I don't see any issues there. You can't tell me fat Matt Jarvis is worth 7 mill we could get some real continental class for that! COYS! As i stated above, it is RUMOURS, if you know what a rumour is you'd know what i was going on about Clyne - Dream on mate ! Naughton would return to Norwich if Spurs allowed it either permanent or another loan...you have NO chance!
05 May 2012 12:48:15 Jordan Mackie? Not sure just googled him and he isn't a football player, I think you mean Jamie Mackie, He would be a good signing but haven't seen this rumour before. Matt Phillips would be a amazing signing but we would have to put in a decent bid for the youngster. Carl Henry is spelt Karl Henry. I think he is terrible not any better than Cork or Schneiderlin, we need a goalscoring midfielder and Henry defiantly isn't one of those. Kevin Doyle hasn't really proved himself while he has been in the Premiership and I think we should be going for someone better. Finally Zak Whitbread is available on a free and I see this as the only signing I think Saints could possibly make, but obviously neither of us know who saints are signing as they KEEP IT A SECRET until it is confirmed. Matty Phillips is quality. But will be hard to get. Why is Bridge coming up so often? Former player and did well for us but positionally suspect (which is not an advantage at the back) and getting on a bit
05 May 2012 12:33:42 Cant see what player they would want and we would be willing to let go. Both have been good this season and I personally would have put Trippier in TOTY, i rate him very highly. However I believe that some Burnley fans would start to feel as if saints are stealing their whole team. We have Cork, who was at Burnley for 18/24 months, Fox who was their 1st choice LB. Chaplow played their in the early part of his career and know their up and coming star striker and their 1st choice LB. I believe we have also been linked Charlie Austin (I don't think this will happen) but if i was a Burnley fan I wouldn't like the South Coast team at the moment. I think a player like Barnard would be involved in a deal like this. I heard this rumour too and apparently it was Chaplow, although I'd be more pleased if we shifted Puncheon there.
05 May 2012 09:45:18 Hooper is NOT coming.. this rumor keeps coming up, he said 3 days ago "im not leaving celtic as i want champions leauge football" Hooper is a good player but he loves life in scotland and is a championns league player so he will not leave celtic!
03 May 2012 20:56:54 No thanks No thanks? He's had a good season in the prem I think he'd be a decent signing. Open your eyes mate I'm a Southampton fan and see no harm in bringing onboard a player like Whitbread for free. We have 3 CBs at the moment. 1 of them is more of an academy player than a prem player and the other two are slow and coming up to their 30s. Would be an person to just disregard this rumour like it is trash and we don't want him.
03 May 2012 20:49:48 Sounds as if he could be a hell of a signing,his present manager who seems to be doing a pretty good job has no faith in him for Premiership games.
03 May 2012 19:31:13 I don't think Jarvis would come, not a bottom 6 side or top 6 side player, maybe everton,sunderland or fulham. Would be a good player but we will have to face contest as we will not be the only team interested, he was the only outstanding player at wolves in my opinion
03 May 2012 16:17:04 Why post such rubbish, hooper has once again turned us down saying yesterday "i wont be leaving celtic as i want to play in the champions leauge and prove myself against the best" Butterfield and richardson won't go but not sure about the rest Hope not cause we will have a small squad no RB's and very short in CM I really hope your right on this 1 as im thinking these players would be on my exit list too So you want to get rid of 12 players, smart move, not . I can see us getting rid of jaidi forte holmes and possibly barnard and connolly but not the rest, they may become squad players if we do buy some real quality but dont go destroying a squad that has unity as its core strength ! Keep fonte and gully Finally some sense from a fellow saint! We need to keep the nucleus of the squad together it is imperative if we are to be successful. It's a cliche but footballs a team game and that is NAs main practice in management. Zaha ... Dream on dude ! Freedman said he's going NOWHERE unless a ridiculous offer comes in. He ain't joining relegation fodder anyway
03 May 2012 14:03:08 Like to see Eagles at SMS but dont think it would happen. Also he isnt the kind of player we really need - I'd say a ratter (if Chaplow doesnt regain form) is more critical.
03 May 2012 06:40:05 WWFC in peace. Congrats on going up. Wolves don't need to sell but Jarvis deserves prem football, however 4 million won't be anywhere near enough. You will have to double that. No chance for 4 mill Apparently, Southampton are in to sign Dirk Kuyt from Liverpool for £1.5M
02 May 2012 19:45:14 Not sure how urgently we need an older, experienced goalkeeper. We have Kelvin Davis who'll keep ticking over. I'd rather sign a youthful goalkeeper (early 20s) and bring him into the squad. Youthfull keeper, i would love adam federichi from reading Sign given from villa there crap Southampton should sign Kuschak from Man Utd they don't use him.
02 May 2012 16:57:33 There will be a lot of competition for him but he would be a sensational signing if the paper talk is correct. Runs all day and is a real box to box, ball winning, playmaking, goalscoring midfielder. Has it all. Whether he would get physically bossed in the prem is another question.. Ive checked all of sky sports, and this story is no where to be seen.. sorry its not true I've seen this on sky sports website and in the sun so look again mate Check again it's clearly there I've seen this is in the paper version of the sun and sky sports website, would be good signing if saints pull It off Whoever, "checked all of sky sports", clearly didn't look on the Vallecano or Southampton pages... Its on sky, trust me If it's in the Sun, it must be true ;-)
02 May 2012 12:31:02 I don't think so the lad is highly thought of at Everton and has been sent out on loan to Scunthorpe to get some first team experience. Don't want him. We have our own youth academy for hot prospects. Have you heard - it's the best in the UK. Oh yeah i forgot that your Arsenal's feeder club. And you are man utds
01 May 2012 23:10:01 I have also heard that a few days ago That's because he's been injured, he's one of their key players. We could us a spare Wiel on the bus..... Wiel is too good and think he is wanted by ajax and not just to warm the bench. Not starting doesn't always mean he isn't favoured or there is anything going on behind the scenes. Mixture of injuries and not wanting to disrupt a team that was functioning ok are the reasons why he didnt manage to get a run of games together in their starting 11. Would be a very good signing for us, reminds me of bale
01 May 2012 17:24:15 Looks good exept kevin doyle need a striker how can score goals Aged 19, Courtois signed a five-year contract with Chelsea!! No loan move there then! Courtois could come on loan, what you said makes sense...lol. Athletico may not make CL, and Chelsea have stated they would like him to get prem experience. Where better than a club that's going to be taking a few punches. Lots of 'tried and failed' on this list if you ask me. Can see Southampton being more creative with their signings, bringing in foreign and young talent. What a load of bullsh*t. COYR.

29 Apr 2012 20:09:58 Rumors say we will be signing: Arsenal have entered the race to sign gary hooper so dont no about that 1 Apart from Matt Phillips you could pick a worse load of players to sign - MP aside none of them thank you! Scott Dann is possibility if Bburn go down. Not the greatest CB available though. The strongest rumours (media wise) are Hooper and Snodgrass. I have seen reports linking us with Fontaine again, but i think that that ship has sailed. No chance with hoilett the big clubs want him.
29 Apr 2012 16:11:41 I agree with some of them^ But heres mine.. Don't agree with many of these. Ed004 - cheers ed. In which case even better deal! Unfortunately another club will get him, but we can only hope ;) Would want Zaha impressed with him but he does run out of gas a bit...... IMO we need a GK, RB & LB + CB...... 2 x pacey midfielders & 1 Up front to go with Lee,Lambert & sharp Green doubt it unless its for back up. Rhodes isn't good enough. Hoilett is over priced. Owen (LOL) way to injury prone. Fabio and Park made me fall off my chair. Doyle is rubbish and should stay in the Championship this time. Hooper should stay at Celtic as he is a joke. Upson possible, I also believe Lolo may be possible too. But in truth Cortese is a shrude buisness man and keeps everything behind closed doors so I doubt anything on here will be accurate anyway. {Ed003's Note - Hoilett is out of contract in June,compensation would have to be paid though because of his age}
29 Apr 2012 15:01:47 Never seen such dumb posts put up about saints targets, what we need is some real quality in one or two areas mainly in defence and the coaching in that area of the side ! Roll on the prem its gonna be one hell of a ride ! Second,Terry Paine and Mick Channon,lol. Seriously, this is exactly what I do with pro-evolution soccer! Basically try and assemble a team that represents saints. Kenwyn Jones up front with Kevin Davies ect! LOL
29 Apr 2012 10:29:19 James Tomkins would be a good signing for Southampton because our defence aint the best to be honest no offence to Fonte and Hoovield we also need a right back in my opinion Kyle Naughton? (LOAN)
29 Apr 2012 00:15:37 I think Adkins will he likes I sign players who have played under him before and I think he will go in for him again but who knows maybe sharp was his secon choice an now he doesn't want him, has hopper got pace? If not I doubt it because that's what we need now No one knows to early, maybe, but saints could go for a proven out of choice striker (Doyle -wolves)(rodellaga -Wigan etc I've seen a few reports that say we've reignited interest in him. But no clue if they're accurate Hopefully Honestly I think the price will be too high and the interest is too public. Powers that be at Southampton like doing business quietly and cheaply. Also think we could do with more pace up front so would be likely to sign an attacking player know for speed which I don't think Hooper is?
28 Apr 2012 23:01:59 The top three i agree about as they are in positions we need improving or cover for. But the others are championship standard players so i don't see NA or NC having any interest in them as they will only spend where needed. Would love to have Jarvis clyne and whittingham and would fancy saints to bring in a striker from abroad I cant see Nathan Dyer coming back as he was more or less thrown out of the club for bad behaviour. Rodelaga is a lb
28 Apr 2012 15:00:44 Most of them would be great, what about snodgrass, rodellaga (Wigan) Here is mine Premiership cannon fodder,less points than derby,one season wonders then back to freefall for you arrogant sailorboys Had to be askate posted To the skate, lol, portsmouth only have money till last until june, ashame it will take you 10 promotions to even get back into the football leauge once you fold.. Carlton Cole?! are you mad?! hes rubbish and is a target man like Rickie. will never work. GK- Kasper Smeichel? NO WAY!! We are not ganna be getting a whole new sqaud To above post... You saints fans are delusional - there's no way any of those players will be joining you. I guarantee it!

27 Apr 2012 10:57:13 Who's David Comolli? None of these will happen, Ben-Haim is no where near premier league standard and why would we spend £500,000 on a mediocre player from a club in financial difficulty, we could get a player 10x better for the same price. Jordan Rhodes is getting interest from all the country. Teams like West Bromwich Albion, Fulham and Stoke have all been said to be interested (all with Premier League experience and stability), I agree that he is a very talented player and I would love to see him join but I don't believe he will join Southampton. Gareth McCleary is also not a realistic transfer target for the saints. He has recently come into form for Nottingham Forest but form is only temporary. I don't believe he deserves a £2,000,000 price tag, and I believe if he puts his head down he can help push Forest up the table and maybe next season they can challange for playoffs David Comolli was responsible for taking gareth bale to spurs, so no thank you, hes done enough for saints already ..so not intrested in him comeing
26 Apr 2012 00:57:56 This isnt really likley, the sums will not add up. He can try of he wants. Not happening. Rickie lambert would not sign for newcastle.. nigel adkins sells lambert to get expierenced premier leauge player in kevin davis..lol.. why would we sell lambert to a top 5 club and get a player who scores 6 goals a season, unrealistic Someone called Rickie Lambert (may not actually be him!!) recently put a bid in on a house in Southampton but then pulled out and has asked to wait until August/September, this could be that he is waiting for Saints to secure promotion before committing. He has a couple of years left on his contract and saints could force him to hold on but I know for a fact that Southampton FC pay 2 years rent for a player and after those 2 and a half years and then they have to accommodate themselves. Going back to the point about him going to Newcastle, I very much doubt he would leave to a top 5 club and expect to get into the starting 11 especially with Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse, with Leon Best and the Ameobi brothers also in contention. Long I know but I know Cortese and he will get the Mafia on you if you disagree Lambert putting the house on hold till aug/sept to see if we sucure promotion ? correct me if im wrong, but we'll all know that tomorrow with our last game of season, and it aint even may yet. so he wouldnt want that long Lambert already has a house on the outskirts of Southampton, so why would he be looking at one. And if people were to actually listen to any of Rickie's interviews then they would hear him say that he wants to prove himself in the premiership with.......SOUTHAMPTON!!!!! Couldn't care less to be honest. If we cash in then it will be a good move to capitalise on an over-rated player. If rickie lambert scores 15 premier leauge goals next season, it will be massive for us to achieve survival. thats 9 more goals than kevin davies will score
25 Apr 2012 09:51:04 Never ganna happen Dont think so if gordan is going anywere it is celtic Gordon would not want to go to the bigotted sh*thole that is Glasgow! Craig Gordon will not come to Saints, he is too injury prone, and has fell incredibly down the pecking order at Sunderland behind Mingolet and Westwood. Paul Robinson also won't come due to the fact he seems settled at Blackburn, he is getting on abit (32), he has a daughter so I expect he would rather she stayed at that school. I would rather see a player like 2nd choice keeper from Europe, Kelv is getting on now but still has a few years left in him. Agree with everything above. Cannot argue with a single point And you think he would wont to go to a s**ty team likes yours and be in the premier league for 1 season then back in the championship or would he like to play chamions league football get real you english t**t
24 Apr 2012 15:23:11 Hammill,Huth,Gordon,and a class forward Not going to happen Huth is the only one of those I would sign.
24 Apr 2012 15:16:25 Would be the perfect partner for Jos Love to see this Would be good to see him but he is 1st choice at Stoke, a team who are stable in the Premier League, if he were to join, it would be in January-to see how well the team is getting on in Prem/Champ (not up yet!) and decide then
24 Apr 2012 11:13:58 Yes the Snodgrass rumour is getting hot No he's not Think there are better players Snodders is amazing. Will do well in prem. I spoke to snodgrass sister in glasgow i know her well. if he goes anywhere ,he be going back up north Some of you are talking bulls**t all the players are wishlist are amazing saints are gonna be class next season
