Nice one

To me KL seems as keen as she ever was

He comes across as a genuine bloke who is keen for Southampton to progress - what more could we ask for?

I don't think any player has left this club under such undignified and questionable circumstances, both in terms of what he said and did. Deserves to be roundly booed in my opinion. Lovren I would ignore, Lambert I would cheer.

I usually agree with everything you write, but not on this occasion I am afraid.

Thanks this is quite handy

He can afford it

Tomkins was an able deputy

That would be 10 touch Tadic you are talking about?

send me your e mail address, I can probably help a bit. Duncan@duncanholley.co.uk

Wouldn't be surprised to see Sam G in the squad

No he travelled to Everton today for tomorrow's U21 match

that made I laugh

He is an habitual fibber, can't even resign without telling a lie. Used to quite like the bloke having met him but I would rather put my trust in a cheap Chinese watch.

Thanks Chris, although the opinion of the Serbian journalist was undermined in my eyes when he described Tadic as being "great" for us this season.

Yep your middle line sort of sums it up - saying we have an option to buy is misleading.

I am a little confused what this actually means. Is it a case that should we want to make the deal permanent the fee is agreed at the time of the loan but it is still dependant on the player agreeing to it? Pretty much what I assume was the case with Bertrand. But do the selling club have the right to say no actually we don't want to sell to you as say A Madrid could do with Alderweireld. And can another club enter the market and gazump? I assume a lot of clubs must be looking at Toby and would like to buy him this summer and if they offer him more we lose our option? Basically I guess the question I am asking is just how watertight are these options to buy and are they worth the paper they are written on.

Sorry Charlie, disagree, he has been hit and miss virtually from Day 1

Hmm you say he rated Tadic?

I think there is a chance he will be involved in tonight's U21 game at Chelsea

Yes but it obviously was not a very good contract hence him turning his back on it and talking to Swansea. I maintain not enough was done to keep him and that in my humble opinion is a mistake. Southampton do make them you know.

Seems madness to sell him, if we have aspirations for European football he is exactly the sort of player we need to keep. I think the club have dropped a brick, our squad is thin enough already. Of course if RK has someone else lined up I will eat my words but I have a feeling he hasn't.

That last line sums them up to a tee

Like I said I guess he wishes success for Saints, he just doesn't predict it. A man who is jilted at the alter several times is highly likely to be cautious waiting for bride nos 8 to pitch up

He was only making a reasonable point, no need for your response to be so vitriolic
