Convict Colony

In the Daily Fail this morning in the article about Jorge Mendes: "Mendes, who was unavailable for comment, has a quirky sense of fair play and it certainly came as a surprise to the Portuguese agent Artur Fernandes when he received an invitation to Mendes’s wedding last month. Just weeks before, Fernandes had lost Southampton captain Jose Fonte to Mendes. Fonte remains at St Mary’s, angling for a new contract to put him in line with the club’s top earners or waiting for a move to a top club at the end of the season. Now that he is working with Mendes, that day will come." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3222838/Jorge-Mendes-agent-Jose-Mourinho-Cristiano-Ronaldo-Angel-di-Maria-Pepe-Radamel-Falcao-David-Gea-does-muscle-big-deals.html

Thats exactly the sort of irrational approach that successful swiss bankers are known for.

Looks like he could be our tallest player.

Afraid not I wouldn't visit that den of inequity. That gif is a legendary one which has been about for ages.

Love how you cut off the I enjoy his hysteria bit To be fair there are only 3 constants on this forum that i can rely on: Alpine is the worlds greatest pessimist. MLG will must be our resident Howard Hughes (the crazy version) over every detail. Dalek always thinks we will be 17th every season. If we did't have these guys the threads would be shorter, the debate less intense and my chance to use gifs like below. Alpine is Vince Mcmahon - The bodybuilder is us playing badly and losing

Good try but I've read Celtic Talk with interest over the years Nir Bitton would be my preference if we need another DM, the boy looks good

Club are awaiting to confirm according to their response on Twitter.

I already like the look of Nir Bitton as i was bigging him up a while ago. Will keep watching you boys as he looks like a good wanyama replacement

This video gets me tingling every time, the run he does against the team in blue(near the end) is fifa like hahahaha He also looks rapid so not too sure what was going on with his pace on FM. [video=youtube;oY-RXVRpnUY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oY-RXVRpnUY

I know they're not yours but based on everyone's impression north of the border can I presume that Virgils stats are impacted by playing in the SPL?

So Ulrich Van G has the airport locked down but who is our hotel spy for hampshire ?

He was playing in the bundesliga last year he moved from Vitesse to Frankfurt where he failed massively - http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2477407-chelseas-lucas-piazon-what-now-after-bundesliga-failure

Cheers for that as i'd forgotten to check his interview, sounds like it made a big impression on Ronald playing JWP in that position (and further away from goalscoring opportunities ). What do we think Clasie/JWP (the artisan DM) Romeu/Wanyama (the destroyer DM)

Wait what !! I came in here hoping to transfer Alpine facts for my facts to get him in a happy place as I have plenty to burn. Fact - we are awesome - you can have that for free

Joe Hart ex-Shrews so must be something in the water

@SouthamptonFC close to signing promising young Shrewsbury and England keeper Harry Lewis Jim White ‏@JimWhite

To be fair to Odegaard I remember reading a while back he signed for Real above everyone else because they put it in his contract he would be training with the first team and not with a junior team. They then subsequently changed their mind when he started playing for their B team and wanted him to train with the B team instead to obviously integrate better. From his perspective I'd of done the same thing, train and learn from the best which was the primary driver for signing or train and play with B team a level he has probably outgrown.

Yeah I'm gonna change mine to either Mane or Virgil

I'd be surprised if Willy Mckay got him over as these blokes rep the cream de la creme and are still listed as his agents - http://www.transfermarkt.com/mondial-sport-management-amp-consulting-sarl/beraterfirma/berater/2106 Maybe Willy is taking a cut of the %

was just doing some research and thought I'd leave this here to make everyone feel better about spurs. http://metro.co.uk/2014/09/01/tottenham-set-to-sign-sadio-mane-as-agent-arrives-in-england-ahead-of-11-8m-transfer-4852728/

Ed Woodward getting desperate again ?

If you buy commodities all calculation (i.e iron ore) is in USD per tonne etc no matter where you are.

French agent works in euro's and is probably the currency of the transfer window (as man city show)

35mil pounds jesus hahahaha nice to know having Van Gaal as your coach isn't very helpful
