Southampton Rumours Archive August 22 2014

In previous press conferences koeman has said that he's still looking to sign more people and stuff like that, but in his most recent one he didn't seem as confident and I'm 50/50 on whether or not be is still looking to sign Townsend, I hope he does as he's stated before that he still needs to sign a winger and we need another cb too, because even though fonte played well last weekend we can't really rely on him to be consistent and stay at that level for every match. We haven't got long to go so we should get signing fast.

We have got long. He was 12mil.

Long will do what he has been signed for. heres not here to score 20 a season. he is here to pester the defence when we press and cause mistakes.

Koeman said he was the running striker, and that he has the qualities pelle doesn't have and pelle has the qualities long doesn't, he is I hope a temporary winger for us until we either sign someone or until jrod comes back from injury

Very expensive temporary winger.

Not been many rumours that I've heard recently, found it kind of boring aha, anyone got any?

Danny welbeck told he can leave united.
Maybe we could try? Right.

Must be grinding a deal for a player. Rumours have gone quiet before now just before we've signed some one.

Not seen much, just that Newcastle have joined race for Van Dijk and that we were never interested in Alvarez. Samaras has joined west brom, wonder will he play on Saturday?

Arsenal want Big Vic! OK let's swap him for Callum Chambers plus The Ox!

If you're that bored SaintJoseph, i'll think some up and post them asap. In the meantime. You could go for a walk, watch a movie. Etc.

What about cheick tiote

We won't be signing van dijk or vlaar.
jack stephens is going to play a part this season. he can also play RB. wanyama won't be going anywhere but arsenal have enquired as to his availabilty, they have been in for a holding midfielder for a while. hull are trying to sign wellbeck with the 12m they got for long. Koeman is very keen on signing andros townsend but we need to pay a fee closer to 15m than 10m.

Whole market has gone quite, not just saints. something will happen soon.

As Big Vic came from a CL club, maybe he won't have that clause in his contract, unlike Chambers - but at least CC has a 40% sell on in his contract same as the Ox.

Reading between the lines of what koeman said ( boruc understands the situation, with one year left on his contract we are looking at building a team for the future), that maybe he was offered a new contract that he wasn't happy with, so we brought in an early replacement.

Here you go SaintJoseph.
Saints in secret talks to sign 4 Man City players - Nastasic, Richards, Sinclair & Guidetti - all unwanted and City to pay 50% of their wages.
Would that wake you up?

Saints set to sign don Quay on a 3 year deal his wages will cost 5 bags of carrots a week

Why don't we try sign kim jong il he had a fantastic world cup. real goal threat and could be that 15 goal a game striker we need.

Could certainly do with a 15 goal a game striker!
