Papers are saying that Luke Shaw has agreed personal terms with Utd, but then go on to say that we are not accepting any offers until after the world cup, so surely they can't agree personal terms until we have accepted an offer?

The club could have given him permission to talk to Man Utd. Him agreeing terms doesn't mean the club agrees a fee.

{Ed002's Note - They have not done that.}

Good to hear. Should no transfer business be happening before the World Cup?

3.) 10 Jun 2014
Anything in us approaching Ings?

{Ed002's Note - Stoke and Newcastle are looking to take Danny Ings in the summer and Southampton have made an enquiry with his agent. Burnley, now promoted will look to keep him.}

4.) 10 Jun 2014
Ok so it's not true then, maybe that's what their prepared to offer him then

5.) 10 Jun 2014
He has signed a 5 year deal at &160k per week.

{Ed002's Note - I don't know where you get this from but it is simply not true. Until a fee is agreed with Southampton Shaw will not be allowed to discuss anything with Manchester United and certainly he cannot sign anything. His agent can agree what he wants with Manchester United.}

A fee has been agreed! It has been agreed for a while. There are a lot of things going on behind the scenes that we will learn more about after the world cup. The board are doing everything in their power to appear in control but have be dealt a tough hand by the previous manager & chairman. They will take us forward & we are in good hands but we will lose some players. They are timeing the announcements of certain things to stop a mutiny.

Rocket, you have been a big believer of the player "exodus" from the start. I'm not saying you are wrong, although I hope your wrong lol.
But if there is no player exodus, and your earlier comments about the club needing to raise £80m ( correct me if I'm wrong) then I don't think you would be flavour of the month lol
I'm leaving my mind open for now, and hope any decision made has the club in their best intrerests :)

8.) 10 Jun 2014
Ive never said anything about a player exodus. But I do know that!

1. Lambert is gone
2. Shaw is all but gone
3. Lallana is 50/50
4. Osvaldo is likely to go on loan
5. Saints have talked to Torino about selling Ramirez

I think its fair to say there will be some change

9.) 10 Jun 2014
Oh. And the £80m comment wasnt me lol

10.) 10 Jun 2014
For the record I have said 60 million to cover transfers and the training ground BUT there will be money from sky etc for new players and could be more than 50 million. The plan is to produce stars of the future, sell one a season to hopefully bankroll the next group of stars. Not sure about 80 million.

11.) 10 Jun 2014
Oh and rocket. Slightly disagree about lallana. As I understand it if he doesn't get a move he will try and force it.

12.) 10 Jun 2014
I think we should definitely look to do a part exchange with torino if gaston goes. Torino have some good players

13.) 10 Jun 2014
Who I think will leave:

Shaw 30m

Osvaldo 12m (After the sunderland game in the beginning of the season I got an Osvaldo shirt. oops. )

Schneiderlin 16m

There is not going to be a mass player exit, remember what the press said about the club when Adkins left. Player unrest . people wanting to leave and NONE of it ever happened. The press love to pick on the perceived small guy, the club has never been in such a strong financial position or had such a talented group of young players. The club owes Miss Liebherr approx 78 million pounds and is worth circa 220 million, not a bad 5 year investment 200 per cent yield! She won't sell and this dark cloud that was generated by the press will soon disperse.

15.) 10 Jun 2014
Ok put my hands up, can't remember who it was. Did you see the les reed interview? I want to believe this guy, things are looking positive.

16.) 10 Jun 2014
Yeah I think I have my people mixed up. I'm sure they will comment, but I think shaw and maybe lallana could be convinced to stay. Soon find out though, once they appoint the manager we can all sit back and enjoy the World Cup

17.) 10 Jun 2014
Good point Saintsmiff. For me the most pleasing thing is despite our views, potential knowledge etc we ALL want the best for saints!

You've been found out Rocket. Clearly board are trying to get the right manager in and hope he can persuade players to stay, so no bids have been accepted. I don't believe clubs have bidded amounts being quoted, yet. They have silly add ons to get to the 27m etc. Big transfers like these will rumble on till the end of the transfer window like Bales. Of course I could be wrong but this is my opinion
