Peter Whittingham, Scott Dann and Tom Ince set to join in summer along with 17 year old Alex Lacey from Luton.

Can't really see all of these joining, I can't see Whittingham joining as he seems a Cardiff player now. I have never liked Dann and i like the partnership between Hooiveld and Fonte at the moment. Ince is a very talented player but would prefer Matty Phillips. Lacey is one for the future I suppose.

Fonte + Hooiveld partnership isn't that great. Don't think it would stand up in the prem - far too slow.
There are better and cheaper players than whittingham.
As above, I'd rather Matty Phillips to Tom Ince.

Fonte def not good enough for prem

Southampton could sign Ryo Miyaichi on loan from Arsenal to give us more pace out wide. Forte, Dickson, Harding, Puncheon, Dean, Jaidi and Holmes will either be sold or released.

Could be some mileage in this. Certainly hearing that 7 first team players will be released.
Maybe Dan Seabourne, or Lee Barnard instead of Dan Hardin

Bart and Forecast can also do along with Falque and Doble Conners to retire should leave loads of sapace for 5/6 quality players
Butand from Brum
Clyne from Palace
Dann from BB
Whittingham from Cardiff
Phillips (M) from BPool
Leadbetter from Ipswhich

Of those 6 players you said were 'quality' I would say only 2 of them would show any promise in the prem: Clyne and Phillips.

Butland is a good shout but top teams are after him.

I wouldn't sell barnard, puncheon and harding as they at the moment are good enough for our first team
