I've been reading a few reports from overseas press and it seems to me that unless we make the CL this year we are going to lose 3 key players in Morgan, Toby and Clyney.
This from their own mouths not agents or made up press quotes.
We have yet again another serious recruitment programme to follow this summer.
I know there will be those of you out there that live in cloud cuckoo land that don't want to believe it but this is definitely going to happen.

You are right but I'm not too concerned. As long as they give us their best this season then let them go. We will get good money for Spider and Clyne and they will be replaced. Athletico Madrid replaced their players from last year as we did and we are both doing well. Saints are already planning you can be sure of that.

Decent post and I can see all of them leaving. Let's be honest I think top 4 went with the Liverpool defeat but I guess we could sneak in as a lot of the others have to play each other while we have slightly easier run in (well after Sunday!)
Personally I think if Toby was going to stay then with would have been done by now so makes me think the player is dragging his heels and as much as he has enjoyed this season might be waiting for a CL team to make a offer. As for Morgan as good as he is I'm getting bored with the same stuff with arsenal spurs etc and well if he wants out let's get decent money and replace him. Clyne is top right back and would be huge shame if he left but again if they don't want to be part of the project then let's get top dollar and replace.
I am personally excited for run in to the summer see where we finish and then add more quality and who knows perhaps next season CL qualification might happen.

I don't think you can count Alderweireld as a key player who is leaving, as he was never a Saints player and only contracted for one season.

If he wanted to join permanently, I'm sure he would've done so by now at the rumoured agreed price, as Bertrand did.

Just enjoy his contributions but don't get too attached, I'd say.

As for the other two, I'm pretty sure most supporters knew this would be their last season at Saints months ago. It is what it is.

Qwertyell, what planet are you on?
Alderwireld not a key player?
He has been our best centre half this season when he has played in that position regardless of the fact that he can play anywhere across the back four and the holding position in midfield. No wonder then that The Mancs and Spuds are sniffing around our unkey unsigned player.

I agree that those three are likely to leave. Maybe, just maybe Toby will stay but I'm not convinced.
On the brighter side we will have cash in the bank to spend.
With spider linked to Arsenal, how about a deal involving Walcott coming back? He is down the pecking order there at the moment and if he could stay injury free would be just what we need alongside Pelle

1x1, I mean counting Alderweireld as one of "ours" who is leaving. He isn't leaving, he was never contracted to stay beyond the season. His situation is exactly as it was on the day he signed, so I'm not sure there's much point in throwing his name onto the potential "exodus" list and getting all gloomy about it.

I stated 3 key players to be replaced.
Exactly as it says on the tin!!!

Cyprus please be kidding. Walcott is Mark Twain, missed about 83 chances this season and he's only played about 5 games! He can still run fast yes, but that's it. I'd rather Mane any day.

Arsenal won't let theo leave, even if he did he wouldn't come here. He wants money and plenty of time off. Good player at his peak (18 when he was with us) but with the exception of one good game for arsenal against Milan he hasn't done anything since leaving. He is just a name, that's all.
