Saints linked with Thomas Sivok Czech centre back who has turned down contract extension at besiktas, he is in talks with sevilla but saints are believed to have registered an interest, good player if we can nick him from under the noses of sevilla would be @ 7 mill' mark, source clubcall.

Believable12 Unbelievable9

It could be true because on the sky sports website it said an unnamed english club is interested

Agree8 Disagree4

Sky sports said an un-named. could be any of the 20 premier leauge clubs lol

Agree4 Disagree4

They have named Southampton as the team interested

Agree10 Disagree1

SAINTS are definatley interested in this player. a enquiry has been made. Saints are looking to bolster the defence and NA & NC feel Thomas could fill the gap.

Agree5 Disagree3

Is he any Good then? I didn't pay alot of Interest to the Euros Bar England.

Agree4 Disagree1

He's on a bosman mate!!

Agree5 Disagree3

He was shocking. not very good at all

Agree4 Disagree3

He's on a free transfer! we would have to pay something but nowhere near 7 million :L

Agree4 Disagree1

Didnt realise he had let his contract run out lol but he was rated at 7 million so a bargain if we can get him in, defo wasnt shocking in the euros visit specsavers,

Agree2 Disagree0

Unlikely? Is more of a defensive midfielder, which isn't what we need. We need pace in our defence and not sure Sivok would add to what we have

Agree0 Disagree1

"Didnt realise he had let his contract run out lol but he was rated at 7 million so a bargain if we can get him in, defo wasnt shocking in the euros visit specsavers," here you go :L "He is available as a free agent after seeing his contract at Besiktas run down and is in the process of weighing up his options" so yeah he is on a free :D

Agree2 Disagree1

No way are we interested and Clubcall is used by agents to drum up interest pay no heed.

Agree0 Disagree0

With only the arrival of Jay Rodriguez so far, Nigel Adkins will conclude 2 more signings by Thursday, if not then over the weekend, with concentration on initial pre season training at the end of this week. Danny Guthrie is due for talks soon as a free agent, but Ben Turnes move will take a couple of days longer due to paperwork between Southampton and Cardiff. Cardiff also want Dean Hammond as part of the deal but Saints are to offer an extra bit of money to fend off interest in their skipper.

Believable4 Unbelievable10

I doubt if we'd offer more money to fend interest from Hammond. He is not Premiership class.

Every man and his dog knows signing will pop up on the 1st July.

Agree10 Disagree4

Im sure a new signing will be announced this weekend, seeing as saturday is when Saints launch the new kit for the coming season.

Agree4 Disagree3

Sunday actually.

Agree0 Disagree2

Friday actually...18:00...has a red sleeve...possibly pinstripe front and back...will have prem badges on both sleeves

Agree1 Disagree0

Hope they going to take hammond he ok last season but not prem class

Agree1 Disagree0

You're not allowed pinstripes down the back in the prem so that's wrong...

Agree0 Disagree0

Ahhh sorry was thinking of when it comes on sale. Thats Sunday.

Agree0 Disagree0

Now we're out of euros
The butland should conclude by the end of June

Believable7 Unbelievable4

I still don't understand the hype around Butland. Yes he's good, he's very good, he may well be great one day. But a season in the reserves and then maybe a season on the bench, maybe even some time out on loan. I just think he isn't ready to be 2nd to Kelvin. We should buy him and we should do with him what we do with our youth,work our magic, but we do need another GK if we get him, someone that can play at the very top level right now. If Kelvin gets injured then we're screwed. We need to be realistic.
All in all, if we get Butland we will need another, more experienced keeper aswell, just for a season or two.

Agree5 Disagree6

Ever heard of emergency loan?

Agree1 Disagree7

If he's good enough he's ready. He wont come to sit in saints academy or reserves, when he could do that at a bigger club. Part of the lur of going to Southamtpon will be that he can push for the number one jersey and potentially be a premier league keeper next season. Like i said if he's good enough he will be fine, look at Joe Hart

Agree5 Disagree2

Totally disagree. He's more than fine for a 2nd choice keeper.

Agree7 Disagree4

Don't know why you are worried, IF we get butland (which I doubt), he will get games in the cups and for reserves. Sure, he might have a tough time if Kelvin can't play but hes a keeper, he'll need a trial by fire

Agree1 Disagree0

^ Craig Gordan? i know injury prone but still a top keeper

Agree2 Disagree6

I did notice pencilled on a door at St. Marys a clue to our GK signing: it said " Jesus saves", so it could be a real surprise!

Agree4 Disagree2
