Arsene is according to reports going to be using Chambers as a central defender. shame our board hadn't thought about that!
I don't see his sale as good business. He will be worth another 10m+ in the next couple of seasons.
The other transfers have been for great money but still a loss to the club.
My prediction as we lie is a relegation struggle as we have no strength in depth. Any injuries or suspensions and we are going to struggle to put a PL quality 11 together.
But. with another 4 or 5 additions we could easily be pushing up towards 7th/8th again
Hopefully they will arrive sooner rather than later but if it means bagging the right player I'm happy to be patient.

Don't be surprised if the manager walks!

Franklong, I posted this as a possibility if the selling continues - Koeman also has his reputation to think of

I would be surprised if the manager left.
How often can you walk into a club and receive a transfer kitty of the size of the one available to RK? He can buy whoever he can convince to join.

How often do you have an academy with players and facilities like we have? He can further advance his reputation as a developer of young players.

On top of this fantastic opportunity, he has half the fans expecting relegation swiftly followed by the apocalypse!

Southampton is still a great club, with some great players. All we need now is some faith in the board and some GREAT support. Please stop doom mongering and whingeing. This is a rumours site, not the Samaritans!
