How is him eventually leaving relevant in any way? It was obvious he was going to leave at some point, but yet the Mirror showed themselves up by making up a story about a fictional £25m release clause. Which makes them as I started earlier... hard to take seriously.

Is that a no then?

Based on what?

The burden of proof is on the person making the assertion. Plus, in any case for what reason would Reed want it to happen?

Do you have anything remotely approaching good evidence for that?

I doubt it, they'll look at the £30m fee for Pickford from a relegated Sunderland team and want similar, if not more.

Why do you think Reed would want it to happen? Any evidence? Saying we've sold lots of players to Liverpool recently is not evidence Reed wants it to happen.

"Bent over"? The club can earn a world record for a defender £75m from the deal. Of course it would have been nice if some of the money was spent on a top centre back in Janaury rather than a portion of it seemingly wasted on Carrillo. Let's see what the summer wiindow brings in.

Saints fans can dance if they want to, We can leave Pompey behind, Cause the Skates don't dance and if they don't dance Well they're no friends of mine! Hopefully this dreadful season will be the kick up the arse the Southampton board need for a positive summer of improvement. Starting with the appointment of Mark Hughes next week & then player recruitment with some ambition shown!

It is from the same newspaper that made up the story van Dijk had a £25m minimum fee release clause... https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/virgil-van-dijks-35m-buy-9385313 Hard to take them seriously!

They've already had one, they don't need one at every remaining game.

That isn't what Hughes said today about Bednarek... https://southamptonfc.com/news/2018-05-11/team-news-mark-hughes-pre-southampton-manchester-city-1718

I've recruited an undercover team to travel to present day Glasgow... To spy on you... The evidence they've sent back to my office is piling up!

I was correcting the account of someone using an alias account and did so with a after the post. I was not being entirely serious Eric!

We all know you aren't one for accuracy.... They have 105 league goals in 2017/18.

The English top league has not been called the Premiership since 2007.

Better to judge a player on his own merits rather than how his club did in one season.

How have you determined that?

Heisenberg is my alter ego

I'd use that word to describe your ability to judge player quality.

We have a better squad than Stoke. Saints are also currently playing better than Stoke and in a better place confidence wise. Of course Man City will want to win to get 100 points, but their players will be thinking of going to a World Cup injury free when they are faced with a 50/50 challenge on Sunday.
