Eds has there been any interest from Southampton in Cabaye? Seems like a perfect replacement for Schneiderlin if he goes and is being linked to teams I'd say are below us?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - not that I am aware of, though he is not really a replacement for Schneiderlin, he is more of an advanced midfielder.}

Is there any interest in evertons McCarthy from us?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - not that I am aware of, Spurs, Villa, West Ham, Sunderland and Stoke are the teams I know of having interest in him. I guess that he might become an option in the event of Schneiderlin leaving, but I certainly do not know of any interest from you right now.}

Ed what's happening with cedric its gone quiet and a couple of papers saying Stoke are closer what's the deal? Cheers

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - all I know regarding him is that he is in talks with a number of clubs. Saints and Stoke being two of them. It will be down to him to pick one.}

Last thing I've read about it. Possibly crap but. "Saints have agreed the deal with both the Lisbon club and the player after outbidding Premier League rivals Stoke City for the defender. But the move won't be finalised until next week because the player is currently focused on international football." Supposedly 3.5 Mil

The latest update I'd seen around the net we had bid £5 million for Cedric, and we were in the stages of negotiating a deal with his agent.

Another notable bid we've allegedly made and had rejected is for Sevilla's Grzegorz Krychowiak with an offer for £9 million, although they are after a bid closer to £20 million it seems.

Interestingly in terms of strikers, we are mainly being linked with Austin, Bas Dost and Stefano Okaka. Both Austin and Bas Dost are currently odds on to join Newcastle although we aren't far behind. Still that's purely speculative, we may end up with someone entirely different or no new striker at all.

Hopefully we may push our first deal of the summer over the line by the end of next week.

Grzegorz Krychowiak seems a non-starter to me. He'd be a like-for-like for Schneiderlin and Arsenal have been after him for ages. If he were available at a price Saints could afford, then Arsenal (or someone of similar standing) would sign him rather than fork out £25m+ for Schneiderlin.

In any case, he's not going to swap a Champions League club for Saints.

Only problem is we sell Clyne for around 15mil and the his replacement is worth 5mil I guess the other 10 will be his wages
