You never know how any signing is going to turn out, but fans of the club the player is leaving being upset is always a good sign.

Thought I’d bump this thread up with him being mentioned as someone we might be looking to move on. Surprised he’s not been linked away anywhere yet. His agent is normally sending him all over the place.

Nice work fellas.

The beauty of this deal which is easy to forget is that it's ALL profit. Unlike if Clasie/Boufal/Carrillo ever go, there's no sell-on fee to pay, there's no leftover instalments to pay etc.

Che Adams bids farewell to his team-mates after Birmingham City accept £16m offer from Southampton: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7195283/Che-Adams-bids-farewell-team-mates-Birmingham-City-accept-16m-offer-Southampton.html

Assuming it’s not telegraph spin. (They had Tadic going for £17m / 18m didn’t they?)

Nearly done according to Sam Wallace. Finally some cash to spend on a centre-back / wing-back.

Yeah, it was always going to catch up with us eventually Lots & lots. Loan moves for most of them at best, IMO.

Leicester sign James Justin.

Celtic sign rumoured annual saints target Christopher Jullien.

Technical director isn’t he?

Roll-on to when the friendlies start & we can speculate why certain players aren’t playing...

Wouldn’t surprise me if you’re correct.
