Twitter is talking about Pascal Grob from Birghton.... would normally discount it but he played for Ingolstadt for 3yrs under Ralph, knows the system and more squad depth ? Apparently created a lot of chances when playing for them from midfield "He created more chances than any other player in the league that season, a total of 95 chances." Groß can operate as a central midfielder, a winger, and an attacking midfielder - sounds useful

Willams rumours from wilson They also made an enquiry to sign Manchester United full-back Brandon Williams on loan to provide back-up to both Ryan Bertrand and Kyle Walker-Peters. That deal is unlikely, however, as Southampton are in less competitions this season than Manchester United and so may offer even fewer playing opportunities.

Graeme Bailey @GraemeBailey Theo Walcott has decided to leave Everton on loan...Southampton, West Ham, Crystal Palace and Newcastle all said they would take him but a move back to St Mary's looks to be his preference at the moment...

Always rated him and is a must watch for me every weekend hahahahhahaha

That is a perfect for Romeu, JWP should just give up joking now

Never watched williams but he doesnt fit in with Ralphs mood from Fri when talking about signings, he'd be a low key one to be fair.

Comes from a juggernaut of a team who were known for their up front and perky attributes

Hahahahahahahahhahahahaha worldie from Oriel

Yes goooaaallllll

Surely if that's how Chelsea work then there must be very few clubs that will pay then more than 175k a week if they were interested in a transfer

Think with both Bertrand and Romeu both ex-chelsea and the players know its just how it is, we arent paying him 175k.

Ok cool thought it was more likely to be the redmond/armstrong role. Now if we had Djnepo on the left in the crazy unpredictable role (mane light) and RLC in the baller disciplined role then we would create issues for teams 100% Wouldnt have an issue with Redmond, Armstrong rotating and coming off the bench

Have to say a couple of things. A)Is the getting up to speed fitness based or tactical, if its fitness then ok and also after last display not super urgent to rush him. B)If its tactical what is the point of the iBook, surely he could of been reading that in his down time to get up to speed (like an american football playbook) C)How hard is our system to understand if it takes over a month to learn it, will Diallo be playing before November ? will we start to buy players in Jan to be ready for pre-season ?

Ok based on that youtube am sold 100% Final question would be where would he play for us assuming we stay with the 4-2-2-2? Would it be him and Diallo in midfield ? would he take over Redmond or Armstrong's slot etc ?

To be honest I've not see enough of RLC at palace or chelsea to see really where he plays, can he fit in our system or is he a top of the diamond type midfielder. I do know he is not worth 175k a week anywhere though, his agent pulled down chelsea's pants down hard.

Yeah the Hertha Coach raved about him when he first joined https://www.bundesliga.com/en/news/Bundesliga/liverpool-s-marko-grujic-by-far-the-best-midfielder-hertha-berlin-dardai-518902.jsp

New owners bringing better profile and bigger deal ..................wishful thinking

https://tbrfootball.com/report-southampton-want-emile-smith-rowe-but-arsenal-currently-want-to-keep-him/ Helps he has played at RB Leipzeg for a bit

Can always tell when its the weekend with @SuperSAINT

Getting ings for 20m a couple of seasons ago seems like highway robbery, well done whomever planned that

A No.6 so yeah

Apparently official according to the local Bretagne newspaper - 15mil euro and they already working on his replacement https://www.letelegramme.fr/football/accord-entre-le-stade-brestois-et-southampton-pour-diallo-02-10-2020-12629716.php their fans seem gutted and displeased with the amount but I think that is mainly due to 3mil going to monaco

Feeding back to Saint Lards link of who Wasserman was in the article Wasserman was looking at clubs earlier this year - you must remember the articles about cocu, koeman, bergkamp et al leading a consortium, they werent they are just clients. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/dennis-bergkamp-heading-star-studded-21964051

Yes if we got a new owner who invested in the team when needed in lieu of being self sufficient that season
