Mental if true, can’t see it tbh

Strange article that

Always thought Little was one of our biggest prospects alongside Slattery, Valery and Vokins... Be interesting to see how he gets on there.

£20m up front plus instalments apparently

http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11700/11410789/southampton-consider-move-for-amadou-haidara Strangely we do seem to be after another CM, we've been linked with quite a few. Would suggest someone is moving on...

Even a broken clock is right twice a day... FWIW, seems big noises from Boro end that he's on his way. Think he would be a really good signing. See this guy's posts...https://oneboro.co.uk/forum/search.php?action=results&sid=d1b30ef5d451446742031f5841dacdd1

Rather have JWP tbh.

Not good enough IMO.

He's crap, and pretty sure Hughes doesn't really like him...would be a surprise.

Despite those numbers being 2 years old...plus they splashed a bit after they won the league. They'll spend more on wages than us I reckon...isn't Vardy on upwards of £120k now?

Is very true...they will. Think West Ham will be best of the rest next season. They have the free stadium so can plough money into their side.

They're all good enough to be squad players and surely cheaper to have these as squad players than pricey transfers. You could also add Reed and McQueen into that list. Reed I think i'd probably try and sell if he's not going to be 4th choice...and sell one of McQueen / Targett depending on Bertrand situation

Striker, 27...nice to have a rumour atleast (barely)

Frustrating when there is all these decent players who are reachable all going to rival clubs while we sit and twiddle our thumbs...Ok...Gotze and Martial possibly out of our range but we just seem to be doing nothing... Evans, Dawson, Fabianksi, Anderson, Gotze, Diop, Martial....

Full list: Home in bold, "top 6" games in red... Got to be happy with that start but it does mean that we need to get points on the board early (just like last season), so we need to get our squad sorted asap so we're ready to go on day 1...! Run in not awful either if we need points at the end of the season... Home games to start and finish, and on boxing day

If true, they need to go. Whatever happened to the club regularly being in front of the curve...makes no sense. They should have been working all season to isolate the weaker areas and start putting out feelers to players to make sure we can act quickly in the summer. Sounds ridiculous that they would come back from holiday and go "oh we should probably start thinking about trying to find some players to join us..." shambles.

Think thats my only hope of a work sweepstake win...!

The ultimate...."keep the fans happy by leaking a few names out there" jobby.

No - and nor would they...but Adam Blackmore, Jeremy Wilson, Simon Peach etc, all said that was the case...keep the fans content for a terrible Jan window. We've been utterly incompetent in the last few years in certain areas.

Thought the deal was already agreed for him to come here? That's what we were lead to believe anyway...

Would expect he's on too much money here which rules him out going back to Italy. He needs to be considerably better than he was last year to be first pick though...

Should just let him have his own thread, then Bournemouth / Glasgow / Heisenberg / EkonOkereke and whatever his other logins are, can have a conversation with himself. Bring back the football.

Cheers - have given a load of different cars a thought and still no closer to knowing what I want... Thought about potentially the Golf GTE. Might have a look at the A5 also. Don't really want a diesel as only ever had them - fancy a change. Have done a bit of research and although leasing does seem to be a really good option, a few people have mentioned about getting a loan and paying it off that way.

Painful this thread.

Difference is, that we need some quality and have done for ages - you'd have liked to think that we would have acted early to create a bit of a buzz after a dreadful 2 seasons of dross football. It's not like we already have a good squad and we need 1 or 2 to improve us, we need 2/3 just to keep us in the league next year.
