Boehly needs to get his hands in his pockets if he's going to build a side that can compete with West Ham

Ché Adams is not turning down a 4yr/5yr contract on PL terms (for now, anyway) when he's 27 and has 1yr left on his current deal (which has fallen by 40% due to relegation). And nor should he be.

Done deal, agreed tonight. £53m guaranteed with £5m bonuses. Saints give permission for Chelsea medical to be tomorrow. https://x.com/david_ornstein/status/1691549210057863429?s=46&t=f0hgNyKSvvOD5qjGLJhsXQ

Must be a deep fake. FarehamSaintJames told us it wouldn’t happen

I actually quite like it too, sue me

Based off the state of play today and all we know at this point - with the huge caveat that people are liable to come/go - I'd go with: Bazunu Walker-Peters Bednarek Stephens Manning Downes Charles Tella Alcaraz A. Armstrong Adams

Leeds losing Jack Harrison to Everton.

Oh, interesting. I’m one of those ‘some people’ who is actually pretty confident we’ll spend another £20m-£30m on players between now and September. I think we add 4-5 more players, Downes inc, but I think two could be loans.

Does JWP not get PL interest and just end up playing for Saints in the Championship in this dreamworld you talk of?

Presser now on the club YT channel.

Yep, remember walking away from St. Mary's and we'd just moved up to 9th (iirc) and everything seemed great... never mind.

Two more top players at this level leaving the league.

Because Moyes is just saving face publicly because he knows how the fans feel about it but ultimately, if we’re digging our heels in on Downes in order for them to get JWP, they have to play ball.

He's also the one tied into the longer contract, whereas Ché has the expiring deal.

Wow, to be a fly on the wall in the Lavia camp…

Sorry, people thought that a Championship club wouldn't miss out on any of its transfer targets?

Well, there's the reality of the south coast food chain now.
