nigel adkins will try to sign rob green from QPR for a fee of 2.5 million

Believable4 Unbelievable29

No, he won't. Southampton already have 2 goalkeepers over 30 both of which are better than Robert Green.

Agree15 Disagree6

Lambert will be at our club till he retires, he is settled here with his family he won't want a move to anywhere except if Liverpool came calling that would be the only club that will turn his head.

Agree16 Disagree3

Nobodys mentioned Lambert.

Agree9 Disagree5

QPR got him for free and there are reasons for that. He is an awful keeper. Way past his prime and worse at catching than Boruc was in the first 5 minutes against Arsenal.

Agree10 Disagree3

Liverpool wouldnt come in for lambert anyway, they signed sturridge for 12 mill today

Agree6 Disagree1

Saints will only sign players who will improve what we have got, Rob Green would be 4th choice behind Kelvin, Artur and Paulo.

Agree8 Disagree1

We might aswell should recall tommy forecast if we are planning to get green

Agree4 Disagree2

So Lamberts ours for keeps, Was ment to comment on a different post ah well
Lambert, Lallana, Guly and all our players are going to keep us up You will see haters! Can see us finishing 14th

Agree3 Disagree3

Dont know about guly i think he has had his best game this season and that was not all that

Agree1 Disagree4

How many more times are people going to copy and paste this from the echo website this is the same old echo crap we get every year.

Also why Gary hooper this comes around every transfer window it's getting boring why would he look at coming to southampton when he has been linked with the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona. We don't need another striker we have loads, as soon as Adkins starts Rodriguez and leaves guly out the team we will score goals. We need cb and a safe pair of hands and maybe a l/r sided winger for cover we will have a good team

Agree10 Disagree10

I do hope most of these stay rumors, Saints don't need any championship players just need some quality experienced players at the back then that will be satisfactory, anymore players would be dangerous if we don't sell first.

Agree7 Disagree0

I almost fell off my seat at £6m for Scott Dann!!

Agree11 Disagree0

Hooper linked with Real Madrid and Barcelona? AHAHA

Agree8 Disagree4

What about Lovren? Agree with above, please let most of these stay as rumours. I just hope we dont get ahead of ourselves incase of relegation and massive wage bill. We do wanna invest to stay up in order to get big prem royalties, but lets keep it sensible eh! As for Lambert, really cant see why he'd want to go before end of season, nor why we'd want to let him go, dont need the money, need the goals!

Agree3 Disagree2

Where did you hear Hooper was linked to Real M

Agree4 Disagree2

Hooper couldn't cut the grass at Real Madrid, if Modric can't make it there what chance would he have, he's not good enough for Southampton

Agree9 Disagree4

He heard that one in Viz not Billy but Hooper the Fish.

Agree4 Disagree2

Besler signed a new contract 5 weeks ago at kansas . so wont happen

Agree3 Disagree2

I will bet you this - no one of that list will sign for saints.

Agree4 Disagree0

According to todays mirror. saints have rejected an approach for rickie lambert from west ham.

Believable14 Unbelievable1

If Spam Wallydyce & the Garnetts really want Mr Lambert, let them talk to him once they have put in an acceptable offer of 35m. Otherwise they can do one

Agree15 Disagree1

We paid 1.2m for lambert a few years back and now age isn't on his side.
I'm a big Lambert fan, but look at the return on investment we've had our use of lambert 2 fold, is he going to be able to cut it at 32 33 in the Prem?

i'm sure he will not be sold in this window as if the worst happens and we go down we will need him. Hence Billy sharp will remain under us but on loan until this season ends

how much is a striker worth at the age of 31 with 7 goals in his first season in the prem??

Agree4 Disagree12

35 mil ^ .

Agree13 Disagree1

This transfer window his value should any club be asking should be 35m

Agree7 Disagree2

I would be surprised if Allardyce would have the nerve to waste his time.

I can't see any bid being successful and I can't see Lambert even wanting to leave unless it was a huge club.

I'm shocked any saints fan would contemplate selling Lambert for less than £10m. You talk of Lambert's worth - to us now he is worth £50m. If he goes, we will really struggle to stay up. If we go down, we lose mega bucks. When the team is a stronger unit, Lambert wont be so crucial but will be an excellent player nonetheless. He should stay as I feel he will be a great asset for at least a couple of years to come. When he hangs up his boots, he could be a coach or maybe an ambassador for the club. If we stay up this season, which we should, for me, no player would have done more for the club in such a short space of time with 2 promotions and Premier League survival.

I am so pleased that I get to watch Lambert who I'm sure will be a Southampton Football Club Legend along with the likes of Le Tissier.

Agree11 Disagree1

The most we could ever get for Lambert is £5mil (based on his age and the spending potential of interested clubs) and he is worth significantly more than that to us. So this won't happen.

Lambert is likely to be the difference between staying up and going down, which is priceless to Saints.

Agree8 Disagree3

Haha you have a pop at Celtic fans for valuing Hooper in the £20M bracket when he is a hungry, young, exciting player who's scoring in the Champions League then you go and say Lambert who is 31 and playing in his 1 and only season in the prem is worth £35M

Absolutely laughable

Agree1 Disagree9

Thats pretty mut h what i was thinking

Agree3 Disagree7

Lambert may not be worth £35m, but would cost big money to sign a replacement so he will not be sold unless a massive bid comes in.

Agree7 Disagree2

It's called humour you muppets. Lambert for 35m....see Andy Carrott transfer to Lillypond. On a serious not he's worth a fortune to us as far as helping to keep us up is concerned. It's true we haven't learnt to cope without him in this league yet but we will, by which time his market value will be minor. Are you looking forward to school next week?

Agree6 Disagree1
