Excellent news! Goodbye and thanks for your year at saints. Fantastic business for a player that wanted out. Now I believe to benefit the most from this, the money HAS got to be reinvested in 2 cb. Van djiik and vlaar for me, although unlikely we would get both.

I hope we have somebody else (Stefan de Vrij) tied up already.

Good, fair play to board for top price. Koeman and board must have known for a couple of weeks he was off so replacement should be pretty much sorted. Heard a few things but I don't want to put my name to any one player as I believe we might be interested in 2, I have a feeling that we might bring both in which would be a big improvement for us. I'm excited, just need Morgan to leave then re-group and go again.
Oh before people get on one I'm not saying I want Morgan to go but let's be honest he's going to and in meantime he hasn't slagged us off, just a shame it's spurs he's going!
Let the new players start rolling in and enjoy!

Would have to reluctantly agree. I am not going to delve I to too much detail as it's not worth it but from what I have heard he has been offered captaincy and improved terms in return for commuting to at least a couple of years. As an honest guy he couldn't. Not heard much on cb's coming in other than what's been states.

Obv I'm talking about Morgan. Committing not commuting

Morgan won't go to Spuds,and if he goes it will be for top money. Picky if your confident in your statement you should put some names in the hat.

'We are not a selling club' so asserted Les Reed back in May! I won't miss Lovren he has shown himself to be little more than mercenary gobsh*te. But my real worry is playing kids and the Hoover surely we are now in serious danger of making Derby County look accomplished. I fear it's going to be a long cold winter.

Morgan is arsenal bound fact

Schneiderlin is returning this week. It's unlikely that he'll be moving, stay positive, guys!

Hate to say it sherbourne but I am beginning to agree. Hoover isn't up to it. I hope to God we see some positive news soon as the blind optimism is beginning to wear on me now

I see llanna has a knee injury will miss start of season. tripped over his wallet!

Am I the only person that thinks we have actually done some good business over the summer. We have sold players who are no longer dedicated to the club for £20m+ and brought in some players who can do a job for us next season (Pelle)? Can we not wait until the season is a little bit underway before all the doom and gloom?

Hedge end saint have you just called me out!! Joke by the way.
Good shout I should put names to positions but I'll be honest and say I'm not going to. That might make me a liar or mean I know something and if I'm besting honest (once again) people can think/write what they want about me. All I can say is what I have heard/ been told and that stands as above. Very interested in 2 quality centre half's. I don't know if one is preferred over other and the second being a back in case saints first choice doesn't work which is often the case in transfers to have a back up plan. But I have a feeling from topic that both might be on cards but again that how I took it reading between the lines. Sorry Hedge the saint that was pretty poor from me but then again when in next 10 days we bring in 2 top if the pops centre half's remember I said it first!!

Lovren, Chambers, maybe Morgan. Now is the time for buying, you have had the time Mr Reed, now get on with it. There clearly are things we do not know. We will be asked to trust them next, well the fans do that all of the time, Tomorrow is another day, we trust you, don't let us down.

Sorry but several weeks ago was time to start buying. Why, when other teams were buying and we were selling were there no options in place or some firm potential offers? I know the board does things in secret but that doesn't explain this
Why has it come down to the last three weeks? Why has it come down to a panic so that we are going to 'do an Osvaldo' and grab the only player available. Or stand there like last season and say. sorry we tried.
We have had money available for a long time and have had the potential for bedding in a TEAM. Now, whether we get the team today or a weeks time, we are already going to be behind most of our opposition in terms of preparation.
The more I think about it the more I worry that this has not been done correctly by the board. I don't agree with the closing down sale. at the moment. but it's not as if we are being given the other side of the coin is it.

Approx 8 players needed in 3 weeks
