New signings: Salisu adds resilience to Saints rearguard: https://www.premierleague.com/news/1784549

Another day, another Chelsea signing

I don’t know off-hand, but doesn’t seem unusual for us to only hear about certain friendlies via the opposition.

Celtic have finally signed David Turnbull from Motherwell. Centre-mid. 👀 Celtic must be feeling the burn after missing out on Champs league.

Fulham linked with Gazzaniga.

Very likely, I’d say. The annual wait-for-Celtic-to-qualify-or-crash-out-of-champs-league before wheels start to spin.

I did say about wages being an issue! Very rare case of being ITK on that one.

So, of all the other centre-mid's we've been linked with... - Olivier Ntcham - Dejan Ljubicic - Orel Mangala - Ronaldo Vieira - Soualiho Meite

Any chance Turkish's source can let Steve know what's wrong?

Fulham must have come in pretty late if Lemina's been in Turkey waiting to finalise a deal with either of the 2 interested clubs out there.

To dovetail out from this - Blackmore & Sheldon have both mentioned that Smallbone is very well thought of... I think we will look for another centre-mid, but if wouldn’t surprise me either if we didn’t sign one.

Reed wants to be a starter.

Agree with all that. The poor recruitment basically stopped us in our tracks. I expect those 3 to all be loaned out again.

It’s like DaMarcus Beasley 2004 gazumping all over again...

Yeah, it would be a much more sensible price bracket area if you do the maths. Will be interesting to see what snippets pop up around Europe in the next week or so.

Or Ntcham?

It was always going to be a difficult deal to do (Covid / Wages / The Unsellables)

*Bump*

*Paul Bearer WWF voice*: It’s all over...

Oh dear..
