We aren't going to play the same XI every week, its just one option of a line-up. Some good depth and options for Koeman.

van Dijk signing, Wanyama staying, Bertrand/Clasie back from injury & Koeman's options are looking good. We aren't going to play the same XI every week, but one option would be... Plus... Keepers - Forster, Davis, Gazzaniga Defenders - Targett, Martina, Caulker, Yoshida, Gardos Midfielders - Ward-Prowse, Romeu, Davis, Reed Attacking players - Juanmi, Long, Ramirez

Sega are paying them money to advertise their game.

When Virgil van Dijk signs, Southampton since promotion in 2012 have spent over £174m on new player transfer/loan costs (not including agent fees, signing on fees or wages) plus £40m on improving the training ground. But the press think Liebherr is asset stripping, firesale etc. Yes, we've recouped a lot but the money is clearly being reinvested.

For the first time today my stats used on SSN...

So are the vast majority of your 26,731 posts of negative, jumping to conclusions rants.

No he couldn't. Plus its a position where we have enough numbers with Wanyama, Clasie, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Davis and Reed as central midfielders.

Yep, to not concede goals. In 2014/15 Saints conceded the fewest goals from corners of any Premier League team... so it clearly works.

My point was I don't think that the signing of a 17 year old would have a big influence on what happens with Gazzaniga this season.

None, he is only 17 years old and can still play for Saints under 18s this season.

Harry Lewis is 17 years old and Gazzaniga is 23, Lewis isn't going to be close to the first team at the moment.

What point are you trying to make? Would you rather Saints didn't sign promising young players for the academy?

Harry Lewis is the grandson of Ken Mulhearn, who was the Man City keeper when they won the league in 1968.

His grandfather is Ken Mulhearn, who was the Man City keeper when they won the league in 1968. Shrewsbury also being the club Man City got Joe Hart from.

How many players can you name that have refused to play for a sustained period of time when the transfer window is closed?

Post match interview with BBC Radio Solent, Wanyama discussed at around 2:30... Koeman states (yet again) that Mane and Wanyama won't be sold this window.

Koeman post match interview with BBC Radio Solent...

After 9 years have you still not reached the point where these types of posts bore even yourself?

Similar was happening with Schneiderlin last summer, we kept him for another year and I'm sure you'll agree he had a good 2014/15... wouldn't you...?

Like Schneiderlin didn't in the summer of 2014 when he threw a tantrum? I wouldn't jump to conclusions as you have.

You are contradicting yourself. That doesn't make any sense as Spurs came 5th last season.

If we lose, its possible for us to be 20th.

Even if he wanted to say goodbye, there wasn't many fans in the stadium at the end of the game for him to say goodbye to.
