SW5 SAINT

I was thinking he(Fonte) must be injured or something. Still £10m isn't bad a transfer fee for a 33 year old who can't get in the first team....

This, why does Sky allow this sort of behaviour. Totally unacceptable.............

It must be a world record recovery time for a foot injury.........

Lol....just on SSN that Coutinho has just handed in a transfer request.........

This, the goals are going to come primarily from Austin and Gabbiadini. It would be madness to get rid of Austin......

I think it is second from left............

Sky confirming deal done now, medical on Monday......

I think he actually lives there....................

I agree the word 'investment' was the wrong word to use. It's just a word that football fans the world over bandy around, when what they really mean is to get the owner or someone to chuck money down a bottomless pit. I think I used this word as way of an explanation to people, who have been wondering why our supposedly billionaire owner has not been forthcoming with money to spend on team strengthening. Not that I necessarily agree with chucking money around, with no tangible return. For what it is worth I see Man City have already spent £219m( I have not used the word investment) this window, with Chelsea threatening to match them, where does this leave FFP?

If they can't play together, I would play Austin until he gets injured..........

That says it all in stating that Liebherr has a wealth of £300m. That's a micro amount for an owner of an EPL club. No wonder there are no further monies for investment....................

Spot on with all of this.......

Those were the days when the Black Box actually seemed to work.......

As many transfer as you want, prior to the kick off of the new season. So you can get started and include Messi, Ronaldo, Harry Kane et al when they have formally been unveiled as Southampton players.....

Fair do's, they already have left us far behind. The only way we could catch up is by winning the league.

These sort of figures makes VVD look undervalued at £75m................

Maybe we should grab the £75m while we can.............

No.......

This: Never understood all the bile and hate directed by certain folk at Eric Black. Seems Southampton F.C. have a high opinion of him............

Even if he does come back to bite us on the arse, £15m is a good price in any transfer market, why its about half what we got for Mane!!

I see Leicester City have entered the race to sign Rodriguez, alongside WBA and Burnley. According to one Sunday paper anyway.

Surely as poopey are now about to become owned by a billionaire the cost of repairs/upgrades on their ground is immaterial?

Yes, if you have had your 30th birthday......

Sunderland were poor side with him.......
