Saints have confirmed boufall has signed a five year deal. With out back room and physios, this is great news! His injury (apparently) clearly is not a major concern as we will have picked every last detail of it apart to identify any risk! Good signing and a nice long contract. Should keep Liverpool away for a few seasons!

Hi Eds. Rumour circulating that Arsenal would be open to loan Wilshere to us for the season? Does this have any legs and could it happen?

{Ed002's Note - I know of nothing related to Southampton.}

Jamesaint is that the same backroom and physio staff that were probably consulted on and confirmed that JayRod would return as fit, strong and quick as before so we should go ahead and offer him a new 4 year contract? .

Probably ^^ what's your point?

My point being that JayRod most certainly has not returned in the same shape as before and as such doesn't look half the player he was. I'm sure our backroom staff know what they're doing but I wouldn't be singing their praises too much in terms of Boufal's injury just yet.

On a different topic, anyone else think we're really short of the mark this year? Trying to stay positive but feel we've been far too naive thinking we've got enough quality and depth.
