Timothee Kolodziejczac looks as if he will take over from Shaw and he looks like a very promising prospect.

Gonna have trouble getting that on the back of a shirt.

He is known as Kolo so no worries about that we just need to sign him.

Let's look at it £30 (+) is a massive amount for a 18 year left back. Don't get me wrong I think he's more then worth it thinking over next 10 years. But wow we already have 35+ million from sales to whatever Koeman was offered in first place. Tadic looks some player and perhaps a move for caulker at heart of defence plus another if lovern leaves, pelle up top and kolo left back means we will still have shed loads of cash and are we really any worse off? Yes it will take them time to settle etc but what a opportunity to spend on improving whole squad. Then we have Morgan victor Lallana and co, now just me thinking out load but with the money we have and players we could bring in then that might well make them want to stay and well if not the they can do one and players in who do. For me personally this is a massively positive mind and at the end of the game we have great youngsters coming through who now have a better chance of playing. I know many won't agree but well let's belt up and enjoy the ride!

He seems a good temporary fill in, whilst waiting for Matt Targett to stake his claim for the LB spot. I'm only going the hype about MT, but it's said he would have got the LB spot ahead of LS but for an injury, would anybody like to expand on this?

To do a bit of financial analysis.
the future value of £5m in a 3% interest rate for 4 years / end of contract / is ~ £40m. Plus the revenue costs of £70k a week (if true prob not) - then that is another £14.5m - so its good business - let's take the money.

Except Southampton won't receive £30 million as a lump sum. It's paid in instalments, usually over 2 years nowadays.

Not a problem. When Saints spend, it will be in a similar manner

I think Taggart will be ready next year and I expect him to be in the 11, he'll be the break through players like Chambers was last year
