This is getting silly now.... can someone give me one genuinely believable reason why the club haven't yet taken and/or published one solitary photo of our new signing in situ? (And no "first interview" video either for that matter). Surely something major must be awry for that not to have happened yet?

It's been relatively ok for me the last few days but today is the worst it's ever been

Possibly more chance of seeing Messi in a Saints shirt than Salisu the way things are going...

The conspiracy theorist in me is certainly thinking that something isn't quite right with the Salisu situation. Given it seems (by deduction) that it's Redmond who is the "Southampton player with Covid", it's pointing towards Salisu being more unfit / injured than originally anticipated or something has gone awry with his paperwork. (either of those would fit @LeG's "typical Saints" remark....). Of course, I'm sure there's a less conspiratorial reason that we're not aware of.....

Bang goes my theory of Jankewitz stepping up....?

Outside chance of a Jack Stephens call up....?

Other than them both being Chinese, is there any tangible connection between Gao and the owners of Espanyol (Chen Yansheng / Rastor Group)? Maybe that's the key to understanding who or what LD Sports are/were...?

Question: Why haven't there been any official photos of Salisu published yet? Even if he's training on his own, why no photoshoot? In days gone by, we'd have been inudated with new signing photos. Maybe they've been waiting for the kit sponsor debacle to be sorted before snapping him all kitted out? Surely if the club have got time to come up with a glossy "oops, new sponsor" video then they've got time to take a few photos of our new signing, even if that's only some photos of him "doing fitness training away from the squad"? Yours ponderously....

Was just about to post this. I can only guess that Bertrand's age has counted against him. He must be gutted not to make the squad though, especially given Southgate hasn't picked an orthodox left back.

I'm not seeing any squirrels on the sportsbet.io website. Make of that what you will.

This is what was said when Salisu was announced on Wednesday 12th August: So, the club we're happy that all the formalities had concluded and Salisu was anticipating coming out of quarantine and start training with the squad "next week" (i.e. last week).

This. If our subscriptions are paying for / contributing to the custodians of this software / platform then why are we continuing to do so if the software / platform isn't fit for purpose? Surely we should be moving to another platform if this one isn't fit for purpose? (P.s. for avoidance of doubt, this isn't a pop at Steve, this is a pop at the software / platform provider that's he's using )

Would be interesting to see a list of previous 'scholars of the year'. I wonder how many go onto regular first team football vs obscurity...?

I inadvertently scuppered the Dell deal by putting all my research on here only for some scumbag to pedal it as their own on twitter... Once bitten, twice shy. Keeping my cards close to my chest on this one.

Tart (No offence)

Redmond the only 'starting 11' player from last season not there...? Edit: actually, couldn't see JWP either Edit #2: actually, this might be JWP...

Cheers 👍

Cheers - was just wondering how convinced he/she was about Friday being the day, given the info he/she had at his/her disposal. But no worries, just me being my usual over-thinking self
