Saints have received permission from United to discuss personal terms with Javier Hernadez with the club expecting to pay about 9.5m

Rojo deal looks to have been hijacked by United but Ron Vlaar rumours are gathering momentum.

I still expect the Sam Byram deal to complete with a fee of nearer 7m

If Spider is set to get his move. Then after missing out on Fer who is heading to the evil redknapp then perhaps the Clasie deal will have to go through.

Finally Nathan Redmond for 4m plus Mayuka is the word on the street.

All of the above sounds good business and if true I'm very happy with the way the club has handled the summers turmoil

Hernandes won't come to us. Am genuinely stunned that the rumour is still going. He has said he doesn't want to come to us, there are some big clubs in for him and he wants to go to them.
Massive shame about rojo. Have heard exactly the same and that he wants a bigger club as well as someone mentioning him following man u people on twitter.
I do hope the childish spider goes now. We don't need an ill wind in the canp.

We're still negotiating over price for Rojo aren't we? apprantly 17m euro bid was turned down as they won't 20m, which is about £16m. I reckon we should just go for it and get it done as it's only an extra 3m euros (£2.4m) may as well get it done! Would rather not get Hernandez, we need someone with better link up play then him, I'd love Redmond to come, he'd do very well here and could be a good move for Mayuka too, any truth in that bid ed?

Rojo is not coming. Heard it from LescReed yesterday. Too much politics and multi ownership too complicated. Also mentioned the mafioso behind the lad getting in the way.

i'm with you on this Magiccabbage, I just can not believe people still think there is even a slim chance of hernandez considering us, let alone joining! we do need a player in that position of course, but hernandez is out of our reach. surely?

All comes down to money.
