I'd say that with whomever is at the helm, we've always been pretty good bargain hunters. Clyne and Davis last season were snips really and both had solid seasons contributing to the team. Both would be worth more than we paid for them if we sold them - Clyne much more so. Dean Richards is perhaps that best profit we've made. A Bosman, a couple of years of excellent service and we milked Spurs for £8 million. Even with his acrimonious departure under the Hoddle cloud, that was an excellent sum of money.

Great news if that's true. He's still young, he's good at what he does, he transformed the defensive side of the team when he came into it last season, and he's English, which is always a plus. I wonder if he'll still get plenty of game time though, some talented juggling needed in the squad rotation department by Pochettino I reckon. I can see Morgan being pushed up higher though - in the Davis role from the tail end of last season. He's good enough to fulfil that role, whether we'd miss his talents defensively makes it a gamble. Still it's a long season, plenty of time for all 3 DM's to get game time.

The more the Celtic "fans" complain about Victor joining us, the more delicious the transfer becomes. It shows we have signed a player they really didn't want to lose, and believe he's good enough for the bigger clubs. Hartson complaining about him joining us is a positive thing IMO - that he things we'll be fighting relegation shows how little he's up to speed with the Premier League - but then that's his opinion. Didn't we nearly sign Hartson before he went to Arsenal? Luton was it?

So he knows where to find the best free porn?

Thank you. Your knowledge blows me away.

Anyone know why he chose number 67? MLG?

Claus was about half a million iirc. A decade of loyal service there.

I always had a soft spot for Jim Magilton. Was never going to set the world alight but chipped in with some important goals from midfield, could pass a ball, and all for just over Half a million quid. How much was Danny Fox? £1.6 million or something? He's a tricky one to argue about, as we got a good season out of him at nPC level but is not cut out for life in the Premier League against some of the world's best players.

I was a wee bonny bairn back in the early 80's. My favourite season was the League One promotion season, winning most of the time, going to Wembley, spending large sums of money in League One terms. But then I'm a bit odd - my second favourite season was the Souness season 96-97, and we hardly won at all.

Reading the Celtic forum, he'd have played in one of their fixtures this week or next week had we not been close to signing him so I doubt there's anything seriously wrong with him that would see him failing the medical. I can't think of many. Brian Laudrup was class for Rangers in the 90's but sadly due to injury never got much of a look in at Chelsea. Wanyama has Champions League experience though so that should help. People complained we didn't have much Premier League experience in the squad when we got promoted - with Wanyama, we're all set for the Champions League 13/14. :-)

He's got two more days yet, the naughty little bugger.

Half an hour? Fricking lightweights.

From BBC Sportsday Live: 1514: FOOTBALL The Football Kenya Federation has congratulated Kenyan midfielder Victor Wanyama on moving to Southampton from Celtic, even though a deal for the 22-year-old has not been confirmed by either club. BBC Sport understands that the transfer is poised to go ahead in the next 48 hours.

After seeing that, I want him too! Signing Wanyama doesn't mean we wouldn't move on from Banega though - from what I gather Wanyama is a defensive midfielder and judging from that video and from what I've read, Banega would be better suited to the role that Davis ended up playing in at the tail end of last season.

Wanyama, Schneiderlin, Cork. What a line up that is. Throw in Davis and JWP who can more than do jobs there if needed, and central midfield is looking sweet. Next to add to our attacking talents... (I'm of course jumping the gun before he signs, but am off to bed soon, and with no work to get up for tomorrow it's possible the deal could be completed before I even wake up!)

Woo a sticky! Someone knows something.....

I'd love it if this transfer did go through tomorrow. I missed the excitement of the Lovren transfer as I was in Mexico, and I'm off work tomorrow!

My missus was happy with the Redmond transfer, especially after I'd been bleating about his performance in the U21 game vs Italy. For me their transfers have been OK, but as long as Hughton is their manager, they'll never be more than a mid-table team, scraping away playing unattractiive football and largely relying on set pieces for goals. Getting rid of Holt was a wise move, but I don't rate Hughton that highly. Watching Norwich on occasion last season was painful.

If a team announced that one of their players suddenly became available, and Pochettino and Cortese wanted that player, then I would expect they'd very quickly move to capture them, meaning very little media speculation. However it seems to be the Premier League way that everything gets published or announced before it happens. That said, if there's any Premier League chairman that could keep a transfer quiet, I'd put money on it being Cortese.

And a Knighthood for Murray no doubt.

A tennis player's nationality doesn't bother me, although I'm not a fan of Andy Murray as a person. If Rusedski had won Wimbledon I'd still have gone bat sh!t mental. That said, had Henman won Wimbledon, I think I'd have felt more pride than Murray winning it. Next? A player born and raised in SW19 winning it. Will it ever happen?

I'm going with Luke Shaw as well. Next incoming transfer will be done on 14th July, 11:23pm, and it will be Bueno.

Well done Andy. Irrespective of what you think of the lad, winning Wimbledon takes some doing.

Are these better tits? I wonder if Leandro Damiao has moobs...
