Saints have edged ahead of ac millan and Liverpool in the race for dejan lovren (tv)

Believable12 Unbelievable8

Because they totally know what is really going on.

Agree8 Disagree7

Daily Mail has reported this as well

Agree1 Disagree4

No disrespect to saints because the fans are great but if your dejan lovren who would you pick I love the clubs ambition and would love to see them get some of these big players but I just don't think it will happen. good luck for next season

Agree7 Disagree5

Does the (tv) in brackets mean he is a transvestite?

Agree13 Disagree1

I don't believe Saints would have any problem selling the club and its project to a great number of players. However, you could equally say, certain players want something different. Depends very much on the individual and I don't think many of us can make that assessment.
Who did Kevin Keegan chose, and who predicted that? The one thing about these type of situations is that they will be unpredictable!

Saints have had a bid accepted for Kone apparently

Believable7 Unbelievable18

He has a buy out clause so what they bidding against?

Agree5 Disagree3

6million buy out clause, we've probably bid 3-4million

Agree3 Disagree3

If its a 6million buy out clause we've probably bid 7.5million ROFL

Agree3 Disagree6

We're not Man City, so why would we bid above the Buy Out clause?

Agree6 Disagree1

Some people are so quick to try and criticise and be pedantic. I personally don't believe the rumour. But even if Kone has a buy out clause, you can bid below buy out clauses. So there's nothing technically wrong with saying Saints have bid for him.

Agree0 Disagree0

We paid 7mil for Jay-rod when nobody knew who he is. Kone is 'supposedly' better and knowing saints, they'll bid higher than what he's worth

Agree0 Disagree3

The only place that kone is better than jayrod is in a wigan fans mind

st stuie

Agree3 Disagree1

Can't really be bothered to double check, but is Kone not creeping up towards his 30th birthday?

So, if my memory is not failing me, where would he fit in re. Jay Rod and RL?

Saint Martin

Been told we want abidal from barca on a free, good cover for shaw.

KingTheKittenSmasher89

Believable7 Unbelievable17

Been told by whom?

Agree5 Disagree2

Abidal won't join saints just to be a back up player

Agree9 Disagree1

Abidal would be Shaws replacement. Obviously

Agree5 Disagree9

Abidal will not be joining saints and not be replacing Shaw as Shaw is not going to be going. This rumour is just silly.

Agree9 Disagree2

As unlikely as the rumour is, to say it is silly as Shaw isn't leaving shows you clearly did not read it, or you do not understand what cover means. regardless though, see very little chance of this happening. Too high profile for us, and also too high profile to be a bench warmer

Agree3 Disagree2

Half right.

Abidal won't be joining but Shaw will be leaving.

Why do some fans persist in being naive. Just like the Oxlade-Chamberlain sale, it's probably time Shaw moves on

Agree2 Disagree14

Would be good cover for Shaw, would be good if true imo

Agree2 Disagree2

See our Chelsea friends are still visiting!

Saint Martin

Agree7 Disagree2

Not being naive. Shaw, unlike Chamberlain, has continuously stated he doesn't want to go and the best place for his football is Southampton for the foreseeable future. Not naivety, just basic knowledge of what is going on. Also with Chamberlain we weren't in the Premiership at the time, we are with Shaw and he's a regular in the 1st 11.

Agree8 Disagree1

I don't know if you are a Troll chelsea/poopy/other insignificant fan for this page but unlucky mate Englands future left back is signing a 5 year deal with us as he wants to play football and not sit on the bench.

Agree4 Disagree1

Speaking to chelsea fans feels like speaking to a brick wall

Agree2 Disagree1

Shaw will leave. Amusing how you automatically assume that anyone who says Shaw will go is a Chelsea fan.
This is exactly the same situation as Oxlade-C. This page was full of fans saying he wouldn't leave. Then he left. For a fee in excess of £20 million paid over 3 years (dont bleat about that either - it's how most fees are paid)

Agree1 Disagree6

One big difference between Shaw and ox. Shaw's parents want him to stay, he wants to stay, he's more interested in playing football than money. Yes, he probably will leave one day, but not yet

Agree5 Disagree1

Who do you support then and also your not even a saints fan and your speaking like you know everything about are transfers but even we don't know what's going on behind the scenes at the moment cortese keeps everything confidential

Agree3 Disagree1

"This is exactly the same situation as OC"!

Oh no it isn't, but you certainly don't know that, and obviously very little about Saints or Shaw. However, don't let that stop you digging your hole deeper because it is quite amusing to see!

Saint Martin

Agree2 Disagree1

"This is exactly the same situation as Oxlade-C. This page was full of fans saying he wouldn't leave. Then he left"

So basically you are saying that the only way this would not be like the the Chamberlain deal would be if everyone on here was saying that he wouldn't leave and then he didn't leave?

I see your logic. well worked out :)

If you are going to just express an opinion at least try to start a rumour.

Here is a good one, Chelsea will attempt to strike a deal with Cole going the other way and Chelsea paying 90% of his wages. However the deal will fall through because they have a good academy and they don’t want scholars to get shot

Agree0 Disagree1

Hes not good enough but then he is 99999999999999x better than Danny Fox

Agree0 Disagree1

Its actually making me laugh now, the troll says 'Its about time he moved on' at 17 nearly 18 after one season haha.

Agree0 Disagree2

Players rumored in papers today are, Diego Castro, Dejan Lovren and Arouna Kone, would love Dejan Lovren he would be a class signing

Believable7 Unbelievable4

Kone would be good if he was cheap. Give us a great option. Lovren would be good to boost our defensive ranks too.

Agree5 Disagree1

Kone 6.5 million US Liverpool and Everton

Source daily mail on Sunday

Would take Kone all day long

Agree4 Disagree3

Cant see Kone wanting to leave Wigan for saints! They're in the Europa League FFS!

Agree1 Disagree7

They've also been relegated to the Championship, which coupled with European football will absolutely exhaust the team. Players will do well to leave Wigan I'm afraid which is a shame because they are a nice side.

Agree3 Disagree1

Cant see Kone wanting to leave Wigan for saints! They're in the Europa League FFS!

wow your intelligence is overwhelming lol

Southampton are after Getafe midfielder Diego Castro according to reports from the Sunday Telegraph

Believable7 Unbelievable12

False rumour^^^

Agree5 Disagree7

How is it a false rumour?

Agree4 Disagree6

Is there such thing as a 'false rumour'?

Lenny

Agree8 Disagree5

It's a load of b*******. It's. made up! Does that answer your question?

Agree5 Disagree3

He's right it's not happening somebody messing about! The telegraph haven't done a story on this.! I smell poopey

Agree6 Disagree2

Brilliant! Well done Lenny! False rumour.

Agree2 Disagree1

So if it isn't true then why on tv paper talk does it say that we are linked with him and its from the Sunday Telegraph!

Agree2 Disagree1

Link? .

Agree0 Disagree0

Were not signing Diego castro

Agree0 Disagree1

Rumour is just another word for gossip. It doesn't have to come from a reliable source to be called a rumour. So no, there is no such thing as a false rumour.
