Big sign this summer at st Marys will be the £12m signing of Tim Matavz from PSV heard that deal all but done just waiting on comfirmation that Southampton stay up. Been in national newspapers in Slovenia. Also hearing that southampton have been looking at vfl stuttgart captain and centre back stefan tasci. Two big signings that will push the club on.

Apologies Saint ITK, I don't really believe this.

Hopefully you prove me wrong.

Ive looked up matavz and he's clearly not worth 12 million he is no better than yoshida yos or fonte, stefan tasci does look promising thow.

Trev saint

Agree2 Disagree7

Hopefully you mean serdar tasci as stephan tasci doesn't exist

st stuie

Agree4 Disagree1

Trev Saint - Of course Yoshida and Fonte are better than Matavz mate considerin they play CB and Matavz is a striker :)

Agree11 Disagree1

If you looked him up shouldn't you know that he is a CF? 22 goals in 44 games with ten assists is a good return. Never worth 12 million though. 10 at the most.

Agree6 Disagree4

And no way would I want Serdar Tasci. His injury history is huge and plus he's injured at the moment! Never going to happen.

Agree5 Disagree1

Matarz goals scoring record over last few years has been good all be it in a league where goalscoring is quite high. I'd say he's worth a bid at least 12m is what I heard and the german guy aparently on a free. Also hearing frederick sorensen of bologna is being eyed up by Saints as well (parently Cortese and the Bologna president have worked together in the past).

Saints ITK

Unhappy Real Madrid defender Raul Albiol is wanted by Saints in a £10m deal

Believable13 Unbelievable4

We don't need him yosida and hovent are good

Agree4 Disagree18

Wages are the only problem

OzzieSaint

Agree3 Disagree4

You've got to be kidding. You'd seriously give Hooiveld a game ahead of Albiol?!

Agree13 Disagree2

He's a right back anyway, good cover for Clyne in my opinion

Agree2 Disagree9

He is a CB not a right back and as OzzieSaint said we won't pay the 60-70k wages he would want and get elsewhere

Agree10 Disagree1

Dont get arbeloa mixed up with albiol

Agree9 Disagree0

Diego, the attacking midfielder from Werder Bremen, has been looking for a move to the Premier League with Southampton, Liverpool and West Brom reportedly in for the £12m man

Believable5 Unbelievable9

I would love to get diego for saints a brazilian international at saints and realistic.

Trev saint

Agree4 Disagree4

Just another made up rumour playing FIFA to much you mate lol

Agree9 Disagree0

His wages are astronomical, never going to happen. Realistic rumours please!

Agree2 Disagree0

Would love this, he's class, wages wouldn't be that high he's only at Werder Bremen and besides we have some of the richest owners in the country we can defo afford him!

Agree2 Disagree3

His wages are around 100k a week, we won't get him. It is not a realistic rumour. Anyone who thinks it is needs to get real

Agree0 Disagree0

New report come in: straight swap, Lambert for Torres. Thoughts guy? My opinion great for Saints.

Believable0 Unbelievable26

Don't see that happening

Agree19 Disagree0

Urm no lambert over torres anyday

Trev saint

Agree22 Disagree0

Nice try Chelsea, but you're not getting rid of him that easy.

Agree10 Disagree0

Thats ridiculous

Agree8 Disagree0

Funniest rumour I've ever read!

Agree11 Disagree0

Would be the worst thing ever.

Agree5 Disagree1

Torres at his worst still far to good for Southampton

Saints have been heard to have matched Galatasary's reported 12m bid for Arjen Robben to offer him a return to the Premier League

Believable3 Unbelievable16

Sorry - wouldn't want the arrogant, sulky primadona at Saints.
He just wouldn't fit in with the ream ethic.

Agree8 Disagree6

Never going to happen

Agree8 Disagree1

Though i'd love it to happen it won't

Trev saint

Agree8 Disagree1

This is silly, not likely to leave Bayern considering his key role in almost guaranteeing them the Champions league title this time around. {Ed001's Note - except that Pep doesn't want him and it has been made known he is available. Not sure that there is any chance of him joining Southampton mind.}

Agree4 Disagree1

Come on be realistic he is far to good to join saints and would go to a top 4 club with champions league if he did come to the prem.

If we signed him I will watch a saints game completely naked till I was kicked out.

Clarkey saint

Agree12 Disagree0

These rumours are getting ridiculous now

Southampton are believed to be close to putting bids in for Paolo De Ceglie (8m Juventus) and Benedict Howedes (10m Schalke)

Believable4 Unbelievable5

Cegile I can't see hapening as luke seems to be staying, howdes I can see happening and I think be a great signing

Trev saint

Agree2 Disagree4

De Ceglie can play LB and LM would be a good addition and would porvide good cover for both positions

Agree1 Disagree2

Howdes would eb an amazing signing

Southampton scouts looking at
Sane (Bordeaux)
Arrabias (osasuna)
Astori (cagliari)
Benat (betis)
Rakatic (sevilla)
Vela (sociedad)
Szalai (Mainz)

English targets
Sinclair (city)
Ince (bpool)
Chabolah (Chelsea)

Believable7 Unbelievable5

Would love to see Vela in a Saints shirt!

Lenny

Agree6 Disagree2

Think these are well thought out lies, i. e. they are good targets for saints and each seem relatively to fit in with what we need and want from them. Cheekily deceptive this list.

Agree4 Disagree1

You say that but the majority have been linked to Saints by the media. They're not his lies!

Lenny

Agree2 Disagree0

The media has genuinely linked most of those! Astori and the English ones I knew about but the others?

Agree1 Disagree0

Southampton are closely monitoring the situation with Brentford's Harry Forrester. There is belief at St. Mary's that he can offer good cover in the squad due to his ability to play across the midfield.

Believable4 Unbelievable8

Why? He isn't the sort of player I think would catch cortese's eye. This has FM13 written all over it.

Lenny

Agree7 Disagree2

He isn't good enough.

Agree2 Disagree2

Forrester is a quality young player who could really make an impact in the right team. Give the lad a chance and ENGLISH players an opportunity. Southampton has lost it's identity with all these foreign players, foreign owners and foreign manager. Up the west london brazilians!

Agree6 Disagree3

He is actually a very good player it much rather see this guy join our club, more young english talent

st stuie

Agree3 Disagree2

Foreign owner who saved us from liquidation. Plus Davies, Clyne, Shaw, Cork, Puncheon, Fox, Rodríguez, Lambert, Stephen Davies, Lallana, Ward-Prowse all first team squad players. Much better than the majority of premier league teams, so think before you ramble next time please.

Agree5 Disagree9

Lost our identity? Please we lost it year ago when we first got relegated under Redknapp. We never recovered. Venturing down to St. Mary's to watch premier league football is nice but the saints in southampton were ripped out long ago.

Agree11 Disagree5

Looks like the rumors in italy about rameriz are still doing the rounds.
this time they are saying that Ac milan will offer southampton cash plus player. the player mentioned is simone ganz who is a italian u19 striker

Believable4 Unbelievable7

Maybe for Hachim Mastour

Agree0 Disagree3

Ramirez won't be leaving even though he's had a poor season he's just bought a house in southampton so hopefully he is finally settling down in england giving us better football from him next season

Agree0 Disagree1
