Tell us what the 'V' stands for and we'll leave you in peace

I agree that's a vaild interpretation. Another equally valid interpretation is that the 'right' player simply isn't available in the January window and Pochettino, having seen Gallagher slot in well on Tuesday, has simply decided there's no point making a knee-jerk 'second best' transfer to replace Osvaldo just for the sake of doing so. Who knows.

It's gonna be a long evening....

(sorry)

Barry mate, you need to be careful here. I'm trying to convince people that you're not a troll or WUM but if you continue using the "Trolls will frequently use a persecution defence" troll profiling retort then you'll get people incorrectly putting two and two together. We can beat these ill-informed accusers together but we need to avoid giving them ammunition. Stay strong.

Yep, great timing! Actually, they don't usually drive up the night before for a game in London, do they? Seems slightly odd. Maybe Messi insisted that he was unveiled with the team in London?

Will people please stop having a pop at the likes of Glasgow and Barry. I've said it once and I'll say it again, they don't even come remotely close to fitting the profile of an internet troll. I repeat, this is the only internet forum in the whole wide world that doesn't have any trolls. If you don't believe me, read the description below and then come up with someone that fits the bill. Sheesh.

Jordan Sibley ‏@jordansibley Another #DeadlineDay departure from St Mary's: Me. I'm off to the training ground to board the team coach to Fulham #saintsfc

Amen

Or.... one injury recovery away from Jos not getting a sniff of a game

Come back Cortese, all is forgiven!

I forgive you my child

@pn_neil_allen: David Connolly has joined Oxford on loan until the end of the season. #Pompey More soon at http://t.co/at3ndfl6hC

Excuse me. This is the only forum on the world wide web that doesn't have any trolls. No one even comes close to fitting the profile of an internet troll FFS. No one.

He'll do (This rumour first aired in December I see: http://talksport.com/football/southampton-eyeing-january-swoop-espanyol-striker-13121271563#J3B40czs2SUcPmuf.99 )

Monk mentioned the other day that he's working with another club now

@PompeyTrust: Relax & enjoy transfer deadline day Pompey fans, safe in the knowledge that your club won't be (over) spending unnecessarily on players. PUP What, so no cheating their way to an FA Cup final fore the foreseeable future then?

I see what you did there

Ah, fair cop.

Hmmm, Jim White has been close to the goings on at Saints over the last few years (albeit mainly via Cortese I suspect) so perhaps the most credible 'source' to-date re: Astori?

Nice one

Just going to read this now. I'm assuming it'll contain several admissions of how naive, blinkered and deluded the fans have been over the last 5 years....
