Saint Garrett

Would take Phil Jones if Fonte does go, personally don't think he's going anywhere though.

Stanciu would be a decent signing, can't see him being a "squad" player if we bring him in.

We'll need width against these lot Forster Pied Fonte VVD Bertrand (Targett) Hoibjerg Clasie Redmond Davis Tadic Long

Thanks Guan....concerning that there is no rumours. I'm really concerned for us if we don't bring in a few.

Can't play Redmond as a CM, not going to happen, if he plays he plays as one of the strikers or as #10, and after bigging him up as a striker for the last month, not sure Puel will swallow his pride and play him anywhere else, or a different system for that matter...

Nonsense, or did we give Everton money for Mane?!

Don't think there is such a thing as FFP anymore?! Hence why Wolves are going to go and spent ca £20m on Talisca from Benfica. Would be great to hear from Guan or K,Billy...all very very silent.

You know Pied is a RB right? I'd play Pied or Martina. Cedric is poor.

Sounds like agent chat to me...

Time to see some rumours, we need additions badly, the Europa league could be an embarrassment at this rate

Both victims of the system, Davis is lost there, he needs to play between the lines and link play. Can't do that.

If its on Talksport then he's definitely not going there.

A RUMOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Is he? Pretty sure Benteke has gone for £27m+5m...(£32m) whereas Mane went for £34.5m+£4m... (£38.5m).

Any transfer rumours?! Would be nice for this thread to be kept to transfer rumours and chat....

3-0 Utd.

Bit like football manager I guess when you decide you need a quick striker, you just filter on what you want.

If Jose does leave, and it's for less than Ashley Williams, then that is an absolute joke....

Trying to divert attention from the situation really isnt he.... If all was well and it was just a smokescreen, then we'd have had an interview on youtube about the Euros as soon as he was back, and he would have signed a contract when it was reported it'd been offered, he's stalling.

He'll pipe down when things start going well. He wants us to fail, always been the case on here.

What about Watford who had a bid rejected ?

Tbf, he's got no history in getting anything correct either, whereas KBilly and Guan have previous ITK credentials and know each other. I fully believe those two, the rest I'm yet to be convinced by.

Maybe he'll go to Everton or West Ham....

Hojbjerg and Redmond are not "bargain basement", they're good promising young players, but we've lost two experienced pros in Wanyama and Pelle, and not replaced either yet. We've also lost our best player and "replaced" him with Redmond, which is fine if Redmond is going to score and assist 10 a season however its a big gamble. We're obviously going to sign atleast 1 maybe 2 more, just need them asap and they need to hit the ground going.

Difference is these were all over a number of years, we've lost a more players in 3 consecutive summers....with a good chance to push on at the end of each of those seasons, and we've decided not to do it. I will rate the squad when the transfer window is closed, however at the moment we are lacking and not sure you'll find one Saints fan who will say it's currently been a successful window...!
