southampton have accepted a bid from real sociedad of £14.2m for morgan Schneiderlin : (
Believable7
Unbelievable37
More dribble from a pompey fan no doubt he's not going anywhere not for that price anyway
Agree25

Im on twitter and I have heard nothing of the sort about this lol! Morgan Schneiderlin won't leave been saying this for a long time, plus Why would he want to go to Real Sociedad when he could easily go to a better team than them? 14.2 million make that 30 million and ill take it but 14. 4 no just he'll easily be worth 20-25 million in two seasons
Agree17

I don't see that happening, he's too good a player to be going there for that money.
Agree12
Disagree0
Well I didn't believe it because I follow transfer to be on twitter and have been on twitter all day like usual and then bang I saw it! 14.4 million so I tweeted it out at Southampton fc. Be dumb to lose our best player
Agree7

Ha more shocking transfer news from southampton! these people are giving us a bad name lol

The same account also said Luke Shaw was going to Manchester United for £11m. Seriously? I've no doubt that there is interest in our best players, but we aren't a selling club anymore. The ONLY way these guys will leave is if they are asking to go and we are getting a suitable offer.
As for Schneiderlin, Cortese told him that he was going to be a huge part of his project and he was touched by the belief that Nicola has in him. He isn't going anywhere.

Laughable how gullible people are. Newsflash = Twitter is NOT the font of all knowledge, more likely to be a kid making stuff up from his bedroom.
People need to relax.

. and on hearing this Rickie Lambert has accepted a £3. 75 transfer to Pompey; Get a Life!

Saints having a press conference tomorrow. be intresting to hear what the boss has to say!
Agree6

Some random person can confirm? brilliant. I can confirm that we will infact we have had a 150million bid accepted for ronaldo. I can confirm this therefore it is true. i'm an agent. serious.
Agree2

"Twitter" anagram of two Pompey fans confirming what we know! " Tit - we - r"
Agree1
Disagree2
The "Tit we r" thing makes the person speaking sound like Yoda with the weird nature of the grammar and I assure you Portsmouth are not strong with the force.
Agree2
Disagree1
It's true we did accept a bid for him reason given was it would be unfair to deny Schneiderlin the opportunity of playing champions league football to be honest if we get 14 for him I'd take it
Agree0
Disagree9
Think that's the worst trolling attempt I've seen yet above ^ '14 I'd take it'? Behave sunshine there aren't many of us who'd take just 14 for Spider when we got 12 for Alex and were in league one and Henderson went for 16, plus we don't NEED to sell anymore. Add another 10 million and I'd still probably not fancy it

So now that we have been linked with nearly every player in Europe and that most of them are signing for other clubs, perhaps it is time to narrow it down to those we haven't been linked with.
Messi and Ronaldo anyone?
Believable11
Unbelievable2
I think Ricky would keep those two out of the side anyway. Best they stay where they are.
Agree11

Please name those we´ve been linked to that has signed for other clubs.

I just drove past SMS and just saw Jolean Lescott and Scott Sinclair getting out of a chaufer driven car with what looked like a kit bag each.
My guess is they have come here for a medical?
Believable6
Unbelievable28
I would have thought they'd do medicals at staplewood
Agree18
Disagree1
My guess is you're talking Sh*t
Agree25
Disagree0
I would doubt heavily that this is true, but it's not unfeasable that players are shown around the ground/stadium before they committ and sign on the dotted line.
Agree7
Disagree0
They don't do medicals at St Mary's!
Agree7
Disagree0
Why didn't you stop and ask them?
Agree5
Disagree0
Ive just been at SMS getting my season ticket and the only other people there were some builders mate, stop talking s***
Agree9
Disagree0
Lets face it both players went to St Marys this season they don't need to be shown around. the door out maybe! Neither offer anything better than we currently have. The Punches performances last year were better than what Sinclair offered at Swansea
Agree2
Disagree1
Well Sinclair is still out of the game due to having surgery so I very much doubt it
Agree2
Disagree0
The bags must have been full of cash to Pay Wagamma's agents fee
Agree9

We can only wish for this to happen, it won't mind but we can wish it does
Agree2

Press Conference tomorrow - Pochetino to speak about transfers here comes 3 signings
Agree0
Disagree5
I would have lescott over any of our cb proven premier player, premier league winner says it all.
Agree4
Disagree3
I'd take Sinclair, don't think we need another CB
Agree0

They don't do Medicaid at st Mary's and they announce signings in that Victoria style conference room at a hotel somewhere. At least get the plot right when making up a story.
Jannersaint
Agree2

Press conference tomorrow is juste a bog standard pre season one & probably a "soft" landing for mopo to practise talking to media in english which he will as his translater is no longer employed by saints. Transfers will inevitably be discussed but don't expect any announcements.
Agree2
Disagree0
Number 1: have you ever seen two players turn up to sign due a club in the same car together? No. Number 2: how would you see them from driving past SMS? Where did this "chauffeur" pull up at the gate? Get a grip son plus how would you be able to see what they where carrying as you casually glanced over as you where driving by and saw our two "new signings" you are either 15 or an embarrassingly stupid adult

If the admin don't post my last comment to the guy who wrote the above rumour you are doing saints fans an injustice allowing people like this post drivel

Chris Baird to return to Saint Mary's on a one-year contract, likely to accept a wage-cut in order to stay in the top flight, and will not expect to play often for the first team unless players become injured.
Believable4
Unbelievable19
No chance, pure fabrication! source please?
Agree9
Disagree1
I doubt this very much! Chris Baird although a good player (squad player) is just not in the mould of an NC purchase. NC is a business man, he considers all buys with 'Sell-On Value' in mind, hence we don't tend to get anyone past the age of 26/27.
Agree6
Disagree1
Well he's currently on a free I think, so if we signed him we could still make a profit, he's only 31
Agree3
Disagree2
How would he be getting a cut wage considering that Fulham released him. And in my opinion this is highly unlikely as he no longer has any connections with the current Southampton squad and Clyne is a much better right back that Baird is.

Wanyama staying at Hilton in Chilworth. Seen eating in restaurant earlier. Def him. Unmistakable hair!
Believable20
Unbelievable24
Total codswallop
Agree22
Disagree4
I don't THINK SO. HE WOULD NOT STAY IN THE HILTON AS SAINTS WOULD PUT HIM UP IN A HOTEL WHERE NO-ONE WOULD HAVE A IDEA WHO HE IS. WE DO BUSINESS PRETTY MUCH BEHIND CLOSED DOORS.
Agree17
Disagree6
Would love it if he signed. but believe it when I see it
Agree9
Disagree2
I have to agree with captain capslock! notoriously we put people up in hotels around lyndhurst
Agree10
Disagree2
They usually put them up at meon valley
Agree0
Disagree4
All I know is that Saints have an account at the De Vere hotel, more likely to stay there as it is slightly more up market. However he may have been at the Hilton but I have a feeling he wasn't at either. I think if he was so open to the public we would have heard of this from a more professional source like a sports journalist who are probably staking out most local hotels, it's their job. However maybe you're right but on a scale of one to ten I'd say between 0 -1.
Agree9
Disagree3
Was his boat seen too? Why can't this rumour die! To start saying things like this is reeking of desperation. Move on.
Agree7
Disagree3
Is the De Vere owned/run by Benali. I doubt that account is still going to be honest.
Agree1

Celtic are in Germany for pre-season; didn't Wanyama go with them? The Scottish Daily Record says only one player is missing from the trip (not Victor)
Agree4

Captain capslock! That just made my day! Lol
Agree4

Wanayama last seen getting on a plane to Germany. scotty must have beamed him in!
Agree0

Have just read the wanyama at Southampton Hilton thread and can tell you that today I saw his girlfriend crossing the road from the chilworth garage with a carrier bag of shopping. proper glamorous high heels crossing the dual carriageway

Saints use de Vere hotel gastons agent stayed there last summer that's where all the hype came from towards the end a member of staff recognised his name
Agree0

Load of rubbish! All the new saints signings stayed at the hilton last year! Gatson lived there for 6 months! get it right!
Agree1

He would stay at Limewood or somewhere equally as posh in the new forest
