It might not be a loss. The £15m it is reported for Saints might include payments for appearances and goals, so if he is sold Saints wouldn't pay Birmingham the full £15m.
Norwich?
22 games played, 16 games left... Saints have 28 points, Norwich 14 points! They will struggle to get to our current points total, let alone surpass it!
What could an England player tell him in an England dressing room that he wouldn't already know in order to persuade him to join a club? Higher wages and Champions League football is why players have left us before, not England players talking to them at St Georges Park.
Not true of Leicester fans in this thread on their main fan forum, lots of them giving credit to Saints....

Tapping up on international duty reason for not wanting Saints players to play for England is a nonsense
Any Saints player would already be aware how playing for a top 6 team would be better for them. They don't need a chat in an England changing room for that. Plus Ings already has experienced life at Liverpool
