Saint Garrett

Will Southampton do any other business? Yes. A move for Torino defender Lyanco is very close to being done. It is understood Southampton are now just waiting on the final pieces of paperwork and for his visa to be sorted."

Now official. https://twitter.com/SouthamptonFC/status/1430107651191590914?s=20

My ST was fine, but it took quite a while to actually scan. Was no real issues in the kingsland/northam corner, apart from general slowness.

Reading didn't want to sell him. It's taken a long time for him to get to this level and fair play to him. The guy is a beast. But his technical ability, isn't brilliant. Even if we had signed him, he wouldn't still be here anyway, as we'd have likely sold him when we got into the premier league.

Torino have now bud for Kabak. Think this one is done

Simeu played tonight for the B team.

Interesting…decent signing if true.

Didnt Afobe get bought a few years ago and then sold the next day?

Was the same in the Kingsland Northam corner. There is no ground I've ever been to that is worse to get a pint before the game / at HT. I nipped down on 42 mins to get a quick pint, stood still for 10 mins in the queue, and gave up. I dread to think how much money they could make if they could actually serve quicker and satisfy demand. Why is there no "bottle only" bars for example, or people waling around with beer taps on their back like you see at other grounds. It is a mess atm.

Just been having a look, there is a 2 Wetherspoons not far from the ground called "The Godfrey Morgan" and "The John Wallace Linton". Doesn't seem to be many options really...no idea what they'll be like with away fans, I know nothing about them! "Potters" pub seems to be a more stylish modern sports bar jobby which looks quite nice.

He just doesn't really save that much does he...his save ratio must be poor. I expect keepers to make saves, and pull off the odd worldy save. He does neither. His distribution is poor too. Will be a good day when we're able to get rid of these two and bring in someone who instills a bit of confidence into the defence.

He’s got the shirt and he deserves it atm, he was excellent yesterday. Would be great if he could step up this season, but like others have said, he has a tendency to come in for a few games, play well, and then make mistake after mistake and give away simple goals. I really hope he can stay focused and have higher levels of performance this season.

He’s not going anywhere, just injured.

Looking forward to a little trip to wales! Forster KWP Bednarek Salisu Perraud Armstrong JWP Diallo Redmond Broja Tella

Surely it can be used against away tickets / cup tickets etc ?

As a fan, I must be missing something with him. Because when I’ve seen him play he is one of the worst keepers I’ve ever seen at this level,

A few 9-0’s and you never know… let’s be fair, Carrillo might have been pretty shit, but he didn’t put in any horrific performances, he just wasn’t very good.

Any company that uses a third party to provide a service and then blames said third party makes me irate.

This signing reaction reminds me of Carrillo. Hopefully he works out better than him….

Stats don't say great things, but hopefully he's ready to come in and be our rock at the back....if he doesnt manage to be first choice, then that is a real worry....we have enough bang average players

Seen him play a few times on TV, (appreciate it's not the same as in real life), 23, Holland International, plays for AZ. Plays majority of the time at DM, left footed. Likes to play the ball forward and likes to only take a few touches before he moves it on. From what I've seen, he's kind of similar to Xhaka. Certainly fits the logic of young, hungry and guaranteed to improve...

Would love us to go after Teun Koopmeiners, plays both CB and CM, available for £15m ish.

My dads in Devon has arrived this morning.....

Today is the day...! Postman doesn't arrive til midday ish though...

This was on the comms from the club too. Though from October they can refuse entry.
