Lee On Solent Saint

One of my favourite players from the last six or seven years. Absolutely agree with all the sentiments about him. My lad met him at a Totton game towards the end of last season, he was really happy to have photos taken and chat to him about football. In this day of egos in football, he really made time for the fans. Feels like the end of an era in my Saints supporting cycle.

He is probably the sort of player who would benefit from an extended run in the first team. Not really sure he has had that much of a consecutive run. He might get that if Oriel moves on, as we might need to rotate more with Lavia.

Pretty good going. I've been in Lee for about three years now and have not come across another Saints fan as yet. Can't even honestly say there is an abundance of the blue few either. Five minutes down the road in Gosport, it's a different matter though!

Wholeheartedly agree. One of my favourite players over the last few years. We have had terrific value from him since his move.

Oppps! Just re-read that again!

Forest are just getting ridiculous now. Be Ross Barkley next.

Kinda does beg the question who is realistically going to go there, with what is essentially a Championship squad. Less than three days until the window shuts as well. I don't think there are as an attractive proposition as they think they are.

Says Gary O' Neil and Shaun Cooper are in temporary charge. Assume it's those two ex Pompey players?

I may be old fashioned, but I don't go to watch Saints to be surrounded by opposing fans at a home game.

And relatively cheap

Shit! Thought it was Friday for some reason! Oh well, can take Thursday off and have Friday to get over the disappointment of no signings!

Anyone else taking Friday off to be glued to Sky Sports waiting for the window to slam shut?!

If that is true Everton should be already on the phone

Bang on the money post. We are two players away from being a very decent outfit in my opinion.

Didn't deserve that. Fernandes is such a wanker

Can't really see those three coming in for him. If he wants to stay in the Premier League, his options are going to be pretty limited

Take your point. However, with the clubs that maybe would look to loan him, could they even come close to matching that potential wage? Possibly we would still have to cover the majority of his wage, throw on top a loan fee, and he might be unattainable for the majority of clubs he may be of interest to.

Sounds like decent management from Ralph.

I would be inclined to keep him until his contract expires. Don't think we are going to get any takers for a permanent transfer. Loan is pointless really. Might as well keep him as useful squad option and surely offers more than Walcott coming off the bench.

Would you really expect us to get an offer of that price though? I know clubs get more desperate toward the end of a window, but that figure for Adams would be way more than I would be happy my team paying for him

Agreed he has been a good signing for us. Always thought he could have pushed on a bit more though. Always seems to play safe rather than taking a risk, almost if he doesn't believe in his own ability.

Gotta question Chelsea and their recruitment. Do they even need him with the likes of Pulisic around?

Get ready for the United wank fest from the media now.

Playing for us didn't do Mane and Van Dick any harm
