It's all monopoly money as far as we are concerned. Whether he is on 70k or 100k it's an obscene waste and whoever gave him the new contract needs firing.
I think it's more "we can reach you from anywhere. If you betray us then you will never be safe." seens pretty strong to me and no doubt will make potential double agents strongly consider not going ahead. Or maybe they did mean to kill them and didn't do a good job. Either way the fact that most sane people realise it has Russian fingerprints all over it means that their message got out which was surely the whole point.
I'd rather have him than long. Sell long and keep gabbi and Austin and add one other striker like wellbeck. More than enough games this season to gove Gallagher a good go out of that lot.
If people want to spend their time creating and supporting a women's football team related to Southampton then they are entirely free to do so and I hope they are successful. I'm not sure why anyone would be opposed to it as long as it doesn't have any impact on Southampton FC.
Not really. It's not going to happen, but what do you think the outcome would be if the UK just said its a matter for the EU and refused to implement a hard border? The EU wouldn't dare.
We had similar things like this in previous windows. It's clear we wanted one cb, we kept our options open and then got the one we want. My guess is we will sign an attacker and that will be it for this window after offloading boufal.
The difference is some players are icons separate from the clubs they play for. People buying a high profile players shirt aren't actually supporters of the club.
