Looking bad for saints according to adam blackmores twitter

Players wanting to leave. Not because board want to sell but because they are unhappy.

Rickie, Lallana & Lovren all expected to sign for liverpool

Shaw to UTD is 95% done

He hinted that Spiderman, Jay Rod & Osvaldo could also be on they're way. The latter being fairly obvious.

Yakin's got another job!

Im starting to lose the will to live.

Somebody please tell me we're getting frank de boer & he's going to sign messi!

Wouldn't believe it, Blackman is as clueless as you or I 99% of the time. Even local Journos sell more with negative stories than positive

LOL. Please somebody wake up and smell the coffee. Lol

Agree8 Disagree3

Wouldnt be surprised I posted a while ago that kl had not paid the players/staff the bonus they were entitled to finishing 8th in epl which has infuriated poch and players and led up to this

Agree7 Disagree17

It is fair to say that all saints fans are very disgruntled right now far from exiting times.

Sean Dyche is to be first in line to become the manager of SFC. Not the big name Saints fans are looking for.
Burnley to then be offered no more than £4m for Danny Ings which with Dyche at SFC should be enough for Ings to hand in a transfer request.

Ive noticed the odds on Sean Dyche have shortened considerably, and although I dread the prospect, a home grown manager is less likely to want major transfer funds, which would suit KL admirably as I remain convinced she is looking to cash in before selling the club in the next few months. It would not surprise me if the club was sold this summer.Having sold all our best players, would she want to face the music when the new season starts, probably not if she has any sense she will be long gone.

Agree5 Disagree11

Sean Dych would not be such a bad choice especially if he brought Danny Ings with him. As I believe homegrown is the way to go.
My main concern is that KL, Kreugar and Reed allowing themselves to be bullied into transfer before the World Cup. RL should never have been allowed to go until the time was right for Saints. This is a sign of the disasterous route the board is taking us
As for KL herself for goodness sake do the decent thing and go before you wreck the club. Sell to someone who will put thier money where their heart is.
I would rather go down with someone with heart than stay up with KL and her money. What would her Dad think of her now.

Agree5 Disagree12

Not dych need some one better

Agree12 Disagree2

Dych wouldn't be bad but wouldn't take us to the next level which is what we want and what the board have said they want, so I doubt it'll be him

Agree5 Disagree5

Sean Dyche would be a ridiculous choice for our next manager. I find it hard to believe that he is in the running with the bookies. Koeman is a big name, but he has had a huge number of clubs over the past few years and has not performed great. De Boer is the outstanding name being mentioned. Very similar to MPo in terms of background, outlook, playing style. We need some continuity and I feel he would give us just that. If not Yakim or dare I say it Moyce. Yes, Moyce will change our style, but let's not forget that he did very well at Everton, and it certainly won't be like watching West Ham or the like.

Agree6 Disagree1

Just look at how Everton have kicked on many Everton fans now blame him for holding them back for years

Agree8 Disagree1

Can't see it

Agree1 Disagree0

Moyes not Moyce

This is what I've heard from a Swindon fan who lives near Staplewood. His neighbour works at the training ground.

Basically, it's frantic activity. The board are inundated with potential managers and bids for players.

Rickie left because it's his dream to play in front of the Kop and who would/could deny him that opportunity.

Massive interest in our players, notably Adz, Shaw. Some for Spider and Clyne.

The board don't want to sell players but will consider large bids.

A short list for the manager is being drawn up.

The manager is crucial IMO.

That's what I've got.

cheers

Believable13 Unbelievable11

Do you actually believe that!

Agree4 Disagree3

As I said - it's what I've heard. !

Agree5 Disagree6

I believe it, that's exactly what Krueger has told the press and I'm sure that's exactly what's happening.
See, there is reason to be optimistic, this is the truth.
Thanks Gary 😊

Some Southampton rumours I have heard from inside the club.

David Moyes has had an interview (fact) and rumours that Koeman has also away from ST Mary's. I guess DM would be the safer bet but personally I am disappointed no news re yakin. Initial contact made to Lennon and Garcia has been made.

Transfers - looks like lovren, lambert, shaw and lallana will def go with and Morgan / wanyama less likely unless valuations are met.

Less news on incoming as saints look to the youth team. However I can confirm that Ings will be a saints player but may have to hand in a transfer request.

Believable5 Unbelievable24

Moyes makes little sense as his defensive, long ball football is completely at odds with the supposed Saints "philosophy" being preached through the age groups.

Then again, not much else has made a whole load of sense in the way Saints have conducted themselves in this off season, so why should the managerial appoint?

Agree18 Disagree1

Yakin looks as if he has gone to Spartak Moscow rumor has it he has been offered a 3 year deal

Agree7 Disagree0

Would the last player out of the club please turn off the lights. We don, t have to sell, Blah Blah, We intend to keep our best players and move on to better things Blah Blah. Nothing but hot air from people who do not know anything about football and have ended up running a Prermier League club.

Agree8 Disagree8

If that's true about Moyes coming in then I guarantee your first signing will be Fellaini. Hoof!

Agree2 Disagree4

Don't bite! Anyone who wants you to sqirm can come up with an unconfirmed room 101 scenario.

Agree0 Disagree1

Who is trying to make who bite? The moyes interview is a fact not a rumour. I could be wrong. but is this not a rumour site? Of course I would prefer this not to be the case but it is the players are v unhappy, another fact and despite what is written in the press mart Le tiss is not any where near as optimistic as he says.

Agree4 Disagree6

I too have been told moyes was at st Mary's

been said tonight that l'pool will start looking for other targets if their latest 25 mil bid is turned down. Saints ideally want 30, Lallana won't force move but won't go to any other club

Believable13 Unbelievable4

Come on saints please turn Liverpool down, give us fans some possibility of hope

Agree17 Disagree5

They will have to turn it down because of the interview Kruger gave just a couple of days ago saying "NO! Ins or outs until new manager is in place" I know SRL is going but that was extremely impossible circumstances to say no to the move. Edd do you agree the club would have to reject the offer after it's public comments? Also they have valued Lallana at 30 mil anyway?

Agree13 Disagree5

{Ed001's Note - I would expect the club to turn it down and it would take Lallana handing in a written transfer request and asking for the move to go through for that offer to be accepted. However, Liverpool are not the only interested party, there are others who might yet step in with an offer that is acceptable or Liverpool might up their bid.}

Hope we turn it down, will we ED? If he goes will go try to get rafa silva?

Agree1 Disagree2

Really hope we gte koeman and it's announced in next 2 days and we keep all our players bar osvaldo and sign 4/5 decent players who are decent and we get feyenoord striker. Coyr sort it
