Morning All -
Well my source in Donny did say this was a done deal, which is what a added on here last week - good signing for us -

Lets see waht today brings -
Ed001 - anything on the below

i'm hearing we are trying to hi-jack the pearce deal from Pompey 1.2m

Radoslaw Majewski -NFFC - i heard yesterday that we have made an offer

Keith Andrews - source infroms me that he has had talks with us

I have been infored from 2 sources that we are trying to get Templeton from Hearts

AW {Ed001's Note - Majewski looks to be likely, certainly the interest seems real anyway. I am also told that Andrews handed in his transfer request due to interest from a South Coast club, but I did think it might be Bournemouth at the time.}

30 Jan 2012 20:56:45
Ed, is there any strong transfer romurs? {Ed001's Note - nothing mate, as it was with Sharp, Southampton are very good at keeping things quiet, unless they happen to bid for someone I know, I am very unlikely to get any prior warning of moves personally. Sorry.}

 

30 Jan 2012 19:26:47
The Sharp deal has been confirmed, he will wear the number 11 shirt. 3 and a half year contract

PL

 

30 Jan 2012 15:23:42
Southampton are to make a late bid this transfer window for Nottingham Forest midfielder Radosław Majewski. Majewski has been vocal about his disappointment at Forest's recent form, and Nigel Adkins, Southampton manager, has been alerted to his availability, having previously attempted to sign him last summer. Majewski is believed to be available for £1.5 million, and should be signed in time for the end of the transfer window on Tuesday.

 

30 Jan 2012 13:14:21
Sharp medical being held as I write this, according to SSN. Anyone have any idea how true this is, or even how much the fee is supposed to be?

If southampton dont succeed in agreeing a deal with celtic over the signing of gary hooper in the next couple of days, nigel adkins will turn his attention to the loan market with possible intrest in bringing either arsenals Ryo Miyaichi (whos just finished a loan at feyenoord and is close friends to new signing lee) or manchester uniteds england under 21 international will keane

 

27 Jan 2012 10:00:31
Seems the next few days will be very interesting for us - poss signing today watch out!
speaking to a few of my sources last night, my understanding is we have placed offers in many areas with many clubs to which SFC will be chasing some decisons from these within the next 48 hours
NC doesn't want to do business on Tuesday as this will only pump up prices, so will be looking by Monday latest for signings

i 'm hearing the below

Keith Andrews - strong rumours on this - Free (blackburn cancelled contract) - good addition got goals in him

Gary Hooper - understand that saints will chuck a last chance to celtic thought to be around 8m

i'm hearing a Dutch Centre back (trying to get name) but they are keeping this one very secret
Stefan de Vrij would be worth it?

Rhodes - understanding is that we have enquired only


keeper - new name being rumoured - Antonio Donnarumma -

Sharp - this is very possiable (wages is the issue here) but i cannot get anything from this end - but i am hearing that this is a done deal from the rovers sources -J Forte or Lee Holmes going as part of the package (loan)

Also heard - Le Fondre from reading

25 Jan 2012 13:32:35
Expect the next 6 days to be interesting, my understanding is that SFC have placed several offers, but like always sfc do business on the QT.

however speaking to a good source yesterday

Maynard - 2.8m offered and has visited staplewood

Sharpe - wanted 35k per week back in the summer, reports from Leicester say he wanted 40k from them!
but he does have the relationship with NA, this may happen

Full Back - could do with 2, however it's understood that he will come from overseas (DUTCH), like wise with a keeper - Bart will go on loan - Davis benched

I expect that next Tuesday will be exciting for us

Burnley striker Martin Paterson is the striker on Southampton boss Nigel Adkin's radar following the failure to sign Gary Hooper from Celtic.

Paterson was signed by Adkins for previous club Scunthorpe United and is believed to be the man Adkins now wants to fire his team to promotion.

Burnley are believed to be willing to let Paterson leave in order to keep Rodriguez at the club, and the striker is believed to be available for around £1.5 million.

 

21 Jan 2012 11:00:47
Tadanari is on way from japan today to sign the contract,he will be avaliable for the fa cup game against millwall and hopefully we can kick on to the premiership coyr p.s let's put the hooper farce to rest and let celtic win there mickey mouse league coyr

"There hasn't been another bid," said Lennon said about Saints' interest. "The stance hasn't changed.

"The retention of all my key players is key to winning the title and Gary certainly comes into that bracket."it's over, can we please move on now

 

19 Jan 2012 19:23:32
Rickie Lambert subject to an enquiry from former boss Alan Pardew at Newcastle Utd who look set to lose Ba to PSG. Seems Mike Ashley will have more than enough income to temp Saints into agreeing a fee and the lure of a big pay day, and instant Premier league status for Lambert may be just what he needs to make a late dash for the Euro squad this summer.
Saints will use the extra funds to land Hooper, and Rhodes, all should be completed within the next week.

 

19 Jan 2012 14:54:35

Celtic are looking for a target-man to bolster their attacking options and their attention turned to Addicks man Kermorgant.

Kermorgant joined Charlton in the summer and has made a huge impact at The Valley, playing a major part in their promotion push which currently sees them sitting at the top of League One.

He has 18-months left on his current deal and Celtic were ready to test Charlton's resolve.

Wonder why they're looking to 'bolster their attacking options'? Doesn't seem that the SPL is a big enough draw to get him away from League One according to the rest of the article!

 

19 Jan 2012 13:29:08
5m is maximum i would bid for hooper he isnt worth much more why not try somebody new.
jordan rhodes,

Jordan rhodes or billy sharp are possible targets

Saints in for Hooper again. 3rd time lucky! Source - Skysports. Must be something in it. Perhaps Hooper kicking up behind the scenes or perhaps the Celtic board named a price. Expect around £6.5m + Puncheon. Better be good for that kind of money.

 

19 Jan 2012 12:51:27
Saints back in for Hooper after 2 bids already rejected. Source - skysports.

Saints bid £4m for Rhodes - source The Sun

I expect Rhodes to be more likely for around £5.5m but will probably be agreed nearer the end of the window.

Sordell is a good back-up. Expect about £4.5m.

 

19 Jan 2012 11:00:11
In so far:

Tadanari Lee,
Yago Falque,

Coming in:
Jordan Rhodes,

Going out:
Jason Puncheon,
Jonathan Forte

 

19 Jan 2012 09:18:24
Southampton have given up on Hooper, who Celtic want no less than 10m for and Jordan Rhodes, who is not for sale in Jan.

Adkins will now turn attention to QPR outcast Rob Hulse as Saints scramble to add another striker to the ranks. However, saints face competition from Celtic for the big lump, 32, who has made just 21 appearances in 2 years at QPR and is not included in the club's 25 man Premier League squad.

 

18 Jan 2012 20:48:09

My freind works for a well know agent and told me QPR have discovered that Lambert has a get out clause written in to his contract and can leave if anyone makes a 1 million pounds offer for him.

Oh really! Here's a quote from the Saints website:
"Lambert's decision to put pen to paper on a new three year deal with the club further displays both the striker's level of commitment to long term vision at Saints, and the club's own ambitions to have a settled and quality squad at Nigel Adkins' disposal."

Rickie leaving is very unlikely, I'd say!

QPR have contacted his agent and he's confirmed it. Southampton are now desparately trying to get the clause taken out! and have offered Lambert a 100k for the clause but has turned it down saying its chicken feed, Lambert who is on 12k a week wants to go as he feels southampton are not strong enough to maintaint their promotion push (he's proberbly right there!) and did not want to play in the jan transfer window and risk an injury! Hmm funny that! I suppose time will tell!

Lambert hasn't played in Jan cos he got a 3 game ban for a red card you muppet. As for the 'clause' in his contract....if there was one it would more likely be for £10 million. I personally think you are just a a dreamer who wishes Lambert was in your team, and knows you aint got a cat in hells chance of getting him

Southampton FC are keen on signing Blackpool's in form winger Matt Phillips to bolster their promotion hopes to the Premier League. Ian Holloway, Phillips' manager at Blackpool, has denied any speculation, but Southampton manager Nigel Adkins could use Jason Puncheon as a tempter to get his man. Phillips is valued at £3.5 million but with Puncheon included in the deal, Southampton could get him for £2.5 million.

Jahlal has made it clear that he would like to leave and Southampton have had problems in goal with Davis' cover Bialkovski struggling for form. Joe Lewis is seemingly Adkins prefered purchase but his owners may want more than the 1m on offer. Bournemouth may take Lee Barnard and Lee Holmes on loan, both fringe players needing first team experience to regain fitness and form.

Adam Lallana to Man Utd.

SAF has kept his cards close to his chest regarding Saints latest wonderkid. Having scouted him for a couple of years now, he's about to make a move for an English player he feels is the closest long term prospect of filling the Paul Scholes slot.
Lallana who overcame a serious injury last year, has come back into the Southampton team and been the catalyst for their rise to the top of the Championship.
Lallana has been capped at every youth level for England and a senior call up is on the cards with Saints looking more than likely to gain promotion to the Premiership, and Fergie knows that to wait until the summer will see Lallana's value rise.
United want to pay around £5 million, but Saints are holding out for double that, and tentative discussions have been opened to see if a deal can be reached.
