Saints looking to sign Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik., he plays LB for Rennes and could be our new LB after the buttner deal broke down
JustASaint
Does he not play cb, buttner deal poss today hence why harding gone
7 million euro bid rejected, and rennes have said theyre not selling
I'm sorry yes he is a CB
JustASaint
We wouldn't sell fox's replacement /backup unless we had a new one lined up
Shaw will be 2nd choice we won't sign another left back! Centre halfs definitely full backs NEVER were more than covered. Shaw has real quality and is more than up to filling in as he showed today. And as for Buttner this really isn't happening dead in the water get it now!!
Calm down, like Shaw isn't ready for the prem just yet, he was brought on against tiring players, Adkins wants a left back we have seen that in buttner so a LB will be added!
JustASaint
Again today showed why we desperately need 2 cb, joss will do the job, Fonte won't
I agree with you about the CB, Jos looked comfortable, Jose didn't when under pressure
JustASaint
Richardson caused the goal so glad we got Clyne he looked the best player on the pitch. I really think well get a new LB, even when Harding was still at the club we wanted one now we have one that's not ready and one that in my view a liability. If the pace players had in the championship was enough to catch fox out of position then what will he be like in the prem. We definatly need a ne cb Fonte just isn't cool headed enough and is just not prem quality. A new rm I think we will need in The near future in January perhaps, I hope Steven Davis is as good as people say he is as schniederlin looked bad yesterday clumsy challenges ect.
Matt
Spiderman will be one of our better midfielders in the prem

Forest fan here. It's all over our rumours page Forest are close to signing Dan Harding from Southampton. Do you guys have any news on this?
I would be supprised as he's are second choice left back behind Dickson, if shaw has taken that role then maybe or we may have even lined up another left back possibly buttner deal is back on. I for one will be sad to see him go hard working player did well for us would be a very good signing for you
2nd choice behind fox, dickson on his way
Surely Danny fox is the best LB ?
2nd choice behind fox good defender, not bad at getting forward and good at set pieces but not good enough for prem, will be a good addition for you
I doubt he'll leave tbh, and he's probably 3rd choice with fox and maybe shaw ahead of him. Very good player tho
Mini-saint
^^^^ so where is fox when it comes to lb surely he is first choice ??
Doubt it but i hope so,he's crap. Hope you've got a big target man.
Ha ha what? second choice left back behind dickson? you mean shaw is second behind fox right? both dickson and harding are not to the standard of premiership football, both will be shipped out
Harding to forest confirmed good luck fella does this mean we have a left back on the way
Harding has been unveiled as a Forest player this morning-Good luck to him a good honest pro
Now confirmed via saintsfc
Pretty sure Dickson isn't our first choice left back! Foxy ring a bell?
Yeah He's gone to Forest
Top signing you got there forest fans, new lb on his way within a week then im guesing cos its a bit tough on shaw to have pressure of second choice
Behind Dickson? When was the last time he played a league game...?
Done Deal
Official Dan Harding to Forest, on Sky Sports. Thanks for your time Dan.
Fitz
Says on OS, Harding has just signed for Forest. Good player, he'll do well there.
Dan Harding has already gone to Forest, secondly he is not our 2nd choice left back. Fox and Shaw both ahead of him then he faces competition from Dickson
A really good pro - gave 100% at all times. Certainly was always happier to see him in a Saints shirt than our alternates in that position.. Good luck Dan.. We now urgently need a left back.
Why do we "urgently" need a left back? Do you actually watch saints play?... ever? Fox and Shaw are two of our better players wise up!
JH
Fox struggled today against Ajax so perhaps we do need another LB.
Lenny
We definitely need a left back and a new centre back our defence is in no way a premier league defence
