He's coming for you, he's coming for you, Premiership defences - Arda Turan is coming for you!

You heard it here first.

What?

Would love it COYR

I like to be optimistic so I won't say "Omg he's too good" like I did with lamela

Agree0 Disagree0

Fantastic player and someone with high level experience. If the internet is anything to go by we could afford his wages too. let's hope Liverpool aren't in for him as he states he is a lifelong fan. Get him signed ASAP!

Agree0 Disagree0

Really? I have my doubts but would be incredible

Hopefully we'll sign:
RB: Jesus Gamez is the only thing I've heard but as we have Clyne I can't see us and don't want us spending 4-5m on a sub. Haven't heard anything else either, thoughts on RB?
LB: Again I haven't heard anything, I think someone like Mathew Briggs of Fulham would provide good cover, not to sure though, thoughts on LB?
CDM: Nainlagon 12m, Quality player, would fit in perfectly in our squad and would be good to rotate with Cork and Shneiderlin, If not Flamini has got to be worth a go on a free, surely?
LW: Scot Sinclair 6m, Wasted at City, lots of pace which is what we need, if you look at how good he was for Swansea last season he is clearly a great player and is good enough to rotate with Punch, Lallana, Ramirez and Jay Rod.
ST: Adrian 7m, with Athletico trying to sign Obsvaldo he is clearly unwanted there and would be a top signing for us however I'd prefer someone younger like Bojan or Morrata or even Dalmio but I don't see that happening unfortunately.

I don't really mind who we sign at RB & LB as long as they can provide good enough cover. I think we should spend bigger on more first team players such as a winger, striker and DM to rotate and add competition, which is something we lacked last year. As for sales I hope Danny Fox, Jos Hoiveld, Hammond, Sharp and Bannard all find new clubs and thanks for getting to the prem :) COYR

What is all this talk about Sinclair? The guy has still not recovered from a serious injury. Do you think Saints would take a risk on a player who could not demonstrate his fitness?

Saint Martin

Agree0 Disagree0

Didn't realise about his injury, how long is he expected to be out for?

Agree0 Disagree0

Why not £4-5m on a sub? We need strength in depth

Agree0 Disagree0

Naingollan or whatever his name is, is going to Roma.

Sinclair, no chance - as Martin said.

Get real man. You're just picking up on tired old nonsense

MoPo is set to talk to the press this Thursday, hopefully to reveal a signing or something idk? anyone know anything about It?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

The likely topics of discussion are how the team is fairing having returned to training, the pre season schedule, the new kits, season and transfer objectives and then if a transfer has happened that would be involved too, but the press conference would have plenty to talk about regardless of if someone new signed.

Agree0 Disagree0

According to Simon Peach no signings are to be announced. unfortunately.
