How have you worked that out? Can you name the last summer where Saints only signed 1 player?

Why have you jumped to that conclusion? Lemina is a central midfielder, Elyounoussi is a winger/attacking midfielder. They aren't really competing for the same role.

When did I say he wasn't born in Morocco? Plus in any case, he was not born in the same country as Boufal. My point was it is daft to make sweeping generalisations on character traits based on nationality.

Hopefully Armstrong's surging runs won't leave Saints stretched at the back...

Arilas Ould-Saada‏ @arilasos @arilasos Mohamed Elyounoussi’s agent is currently negotiating personal terms with Southampton. The player is expected to fly to England tonight or tomorrow for a medical.

Pete O'Rourke‏ @SportsPeteO 3m3 minutes agoMore Everton and Southampton have bid for Borussia Monchengladbach's Danish defender Jannik Vestergaard. #EFC #saintsfc #borussia ............ 6 foot 6 centre back

That is not a question.

Did they? How exactly did they word it? There is a significant difference between "bid accepted" and "done deal".

That is from yesterday and it states a fee hasn't been agreed, Sky today claim to have new news that a fee close to £18m is close to being agreed. Things may have moved on since yesterday Boss! New news often (but not always) trumps old news

May need to change thread title to £18m... SKY SOURCES: @AFCAjax close to agreeing £18m deal with @SouthamptonFC for Dusan Tadic. #SSN

In what article did they say that?

Basel have seemingly signed their replacement... http://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2018/official-lyon-sell-aldo-kalulu-to-fc-basel-for-e2-1m/ Dominos now possibly falling into place. That is why some transfers take longer!

Why are you making sweeping generalisations? (plus he is a Norwegian international )

Accidental Partridge...

He'd need to maintain it for an entire season in order to get a big move, but it is clear he is a very good player. Strength on the ball, dribbling, ball control, tackling, passing all at a very good level.

All you needed to do was be patient for 4 more hours...

It will be every summer window from now on, in order to prevent situations like we had with van Dijk not playing during August.

The wage bill in the last accounts highlights we must be paying a lot of players a lot more than £40k p/w. Some of our youth academy products have been reportedly been on more than that.

I doubt it is that small a wage. Pretty tiny in PL terms.
