I've been told that 1 of these 3 players is going to join Saints next week!-- Scott Sinclair (Man city)/ Callum Mcmanaman (Wigan)/ Will Hughes, Derby). (my money is on Will Hughes:-))
Eds note?

1.) 20 Aug 2013
I hope we only get sinclair he s teh best

2.) 20 Aug 2013
Is this from You Ed?. Hmmm Not seen much of Hughes. How much?

{Ed001's Note - no, not from the editors.}

We're not going to sign anyone else this window. Stop being ridiculous. We've spent almost £40 million. We still have financial fair play rules to abide by, and January to think about just in case.

4.) 20 Aug 2013
I think you'll find we've spent closer to £30 mil. Plus, if the rumours of punch leaving are true then getting sinclair (on loan) would be good. McManaman looks like a quality prospect too so one for the future. I've heard about hughes but not seen anything to comment.

5.) 20 Aug 2013
Baseless comment. Are you the person who claimed we had finished business 3 weeks ago?

Number 11 is vacant. Puncheon has left so expect a signing.

Also we will be fine on fair play. Half the team are youth pros who won't be on that much.

Shut up with your "we won't sign anyone else" ramble. You ain't got a clue what we're up to. ZING ZANG ZONGAGE

Would like to see us sign some young english talent like will hughes

People do realise the FFP only affects teams involved in European competition right? {Ed002's Note - True for UEFA FFP not true for EPL FFP.}

9.) 20 Aug 2013
'Would like us to sign some young English talent' why? Don't we have enough coming through already?

10.) 21 Aug 2013
Would love to see Hughes at Saints, They were absolutely ranting and raving about his talent on talksport today,

11.) 21 Aug 2013
The epl ffp means, from my limited knowledge, we are allowed a loss of around 100m over 3 seasons and there are no wage restrictions under a total of 50m. With the new tv deal coming in and the owners investment, added to the fact Nicola knows a bit about bank balances, I think we are acting well within our budget

12.) 21 Aug 2013
We don't exactly lack english talent!

13.) 21 Aug 2013
I think cortese was hoping initially to pick up osvaldo and banega for 20 mill but Valencia valued him at 15. After failing with damiao I reckon we went back in for osvaldo with an increased offer from 10 to 15. I still think we would have 5 mil to spend if need be. Any of the above fits this category

14.) 21 Aug 2013
Just read a sky scout report about Will Hughes. They have him marked as the next big thing! Only 17 great left foot and can cut a defense in half with his passing. I hope it's him would fit our mould of bringing through young English talent perfectly.

15.) 21 Aug 2013
Will hughes has incredible talent for his age watched him several times for derby and could end up being an absoloute steal by getting him while he still getting better and better!

16.) 21 Aug 2013
Think we only paid about 13 ish for Osvaldo and would get Banega for less than 10 if we let it go down to the wire. Always thought these were the two Poch has always been after.

17.) 21 Aug 2013
I'm hoping for Sinclair and Will Hughes out of these, Sinclair could make an impact now and Hughes could partner well with JWP in future as well as possibly being able to play AMC when needed

18.) 21 Aug 2013
Will Hughes is going to Liverpool. We will sign Sinclair. We wouldn't have let Puncheon go if this wasnt nailed on
