Saints have edged ahead of ac millan and Liverpool in the race for dejan lovren (tv)
Believable12
Unbelievable8
Because they totally know what is really going on.
Agree8
Disagree7
Daily Mail has reported this as well
Agree1
Disagree4
No disrespect to saints because the fans are great but if your dejan lovren who would you pick I love the clubs ambition and would love to see them get some of these big players but I just don't think it will happen. good luck for next season
Agree7
Disagree5
Does the (tv) in brackets mean he is a transvestite?
Agree13
Disagree1
I don't believe Saints would have any problem selling the club and its project to a great number of players. However, you could equally say, certain players want something different. Depends very much on the individual and I don't think many of us can make that assessment.
Who did Kevin Keegan chose, and who predicted that? The one thing about these type of situations is that they will be unpredictable!

Saints have had a bid accepted for Kone apparently
Believable7
Unbelievable18
He has a buy out clause so what they bidding against?
Agree5
Disagree3
6million buy out clause, we've probably bid 3-4million
Agree3
Disagree3
If its a 6million buy out clause we've probably bid 7.5million ROFL
Agree3
Disagree6
We're not Man City, so why would we bid above the Buy Out clause?
Agree6
Disagree1
Some people are so quick to try and criticise and be pedantic. I personally don't believe the rumour. But even if Kone has a buy out clause, you can bid below buy out clauses. So there's nothing technically wrong with saying Saints have bid for him.
Agree0
Disagree0
We paid 7mil for Jay-rod when nobody knew who he is. Kone is 'supposedly' better and knowing saints, they'll bid higher than what he's worth
Agree0
Disagree3
The only place that kone is better than jayrod is in a wigan fans mind
st stuie
Agree3
Disagree1
Can't really be bothered to double check, but is Kone not creeping up towards his 30th birthday?
So, if my memory is not failing me, where would he fit in re. Jay Rod and RL?

Been told by whom?
Agree5
Disagree2
Abidal won't join saints just to be a back up player
Agree9
Disagree1
Abidal would be Shaws replacement. Obviously
Agree5
Disagree9
Abidal will not be joining saints and not be replacing Shaw as Shaw is not going to be going. This rumour is just silly.
Agree9
Disagree2
As unlikely as the rumour is, to say it is silly as Shaw isn't leaving shows you clearly did not read it, or you do not understand what cover means. regardless though, see very little chance of this happening. Too high profile for us, and also too high profile to be a bench warmer
Agree3
Disagree2
Half right.
Abidal won't be joining but Shaw will be leaving.
Why do some fans persist in being naive. Just like the Oxlade-Chamberlain sale, it's probably time Shaw moves on
Agree2
Disagree14
Would be good cover for Shaw, would be good if true imo
Agree2
Disagree2
See our Chelsea friends are still visiting!
Saint Martin
Agree7
Disagree2
Not being naive. Shaw, unlike Chamberlain, has continuously stated he doesn't want to go and the best place for his football is Southampton for the foreseeable future. Not naivety, just basic knowledge of what is going on. Also with Chamberlain we weren't in the Premiership at the time, we are with Shaw and he's a regular in the 1st 11.
Agree8

I don't know if you are a Troll chelsea/poopy/other insignificant fan for this page but unlucky mate Englands future left back is signing a 5 year deal with us as he wants to play football and not sit on the bench.
Agree4
Disagree1
Speaking to chelsea fans feels like speaking to a brick wall
Agree2
Disagree1
Shaw will leave. Amusing how you automatically assume that anyone who says Shaw will go is a Chelsea fan.
This is exactly the same situation as Oxlade-C. This page was full of fans saying he wouldn't leave. Then he left. For a fee in excess of £20 million paid over 3 years (dont bleat about that either - it's how most fees are paid)
Agree1
Disagree6
One big difference between Shaw and ox. Shaw's parents want him to stay, he wants to stay, he's more interested in playing football than money. Yes, he probably will leave one day, but not yet
Agree5
Disagree1
Who do you support then and also your not even a saints fan and your speaking like you know everything about are transfers but even we don't know what's going on behind the scenes at the moment cortese keeps everything confidential
Agree3
Disagree1
"This is exactly the same situation as OC"!
Oh no it isn't, but you certainly don't know that, and obviously very little about Saints or Shaw. However, don't let that stop you digging your hole deeper because it is quite amusing to see!
Saint Martin
Agree2
Disagree1
"This is exactly the same situation as Oxlade-C. This page was full of fans saying he wouldn't leave. Then he left"
So basically you are saying that the only way this would not be like the the Chamberlain deal would be if everyone on here was saying that he wouldn't leave and then he didn't leave?
I see your logic. well worked out :)
If you are going to just express an opinion at least try to start a rumour.
Here is a good one, Chelsea will attempt to strike a deal with Cole going the other way and Chelsea paying 90% of his wages. However the deal will fall through because they have a good academy and they don’t want scholars to get shot

Hes not good enough but then he is 99999999999999x better than Danny Fox

Its actually making me laugh now, the troll says 'Its about time he moved on' at 17 nearly 18 after one season haha.

Players rumored in papers today are, Diego Castro, Dejan Lovren and Arouna Kone, would love Dejan Lovren he would be a class signing
Believable7
Unbelievable4
Kone would be good if he was cheap. Give us a great option. Lovren would be good to boost our defensive ranks too.
Agree5
Disagree1
Kone 6.5 million US Liverpool and Everton
Source daily mail on Sunday
Would take Kone all day long
Agree4
Disagree3
Cant see Kone wanting to leave Wigan for saints! They're in the Europa League FFS!
Agree1
Disagree7
They've also been relegated to the Championship, which coupled with European football will absolutely exhaust the team. Players will do well to leave Wigan I'm afraid which is a shame because they are a nice side.

Were not signing Diego castro

Rumour is just another word for gossip. It doesn't have to come from a reliable source to be called a rumour. So no, there is no such thing as a false rumour.
