Yeah. It's caused him issues for weeks. Austin's swollen ankle isn't great news if we're trying to shift him.

As Appy said: https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/competitions/premier-league/11620487/hasenhuttl-confirms-austin-could-leave Wouldn't surprise me if it's a loan. (I know we want a permanent)

This one isn't happening. Matondo is off to Germany. Source: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/01/28/man-city-agree-1129m-fee-schalke-rabbi-matondo-another-british/

West Ham close in on Maxi Gomez for £45m:

Epic SaintsWeb meltdown imminent if we get out-muscled by Burnley.

Very similar to yourself, I'd say.

They will most certainly not want to lose him if they can't replace him. I would assume it would help them in the long term to get £10m in the bank in-order to get the embargo lifted. A modern day "Andy Reid" gazumping?

& now the Echo says we're interested in Adams as well, 24 hours after he broke the story. Nixon doesn't get everyone right, but he's someone who I'll consider as a decent source of news. (especially considering where he gets his news from).

Leicester in Tielemens talks:

Has played wide before but (I think) he's played up top in a 2 with ex-Saint Lukas Jutkiewicz this season.

Exactly. A team like Stoke, for example, haven't got strikers who are scoring and are desperate to get back up ASAP.

Yeah, but it's one of those "Shinji Kagawa would be a £2.6m bargain for Southampton" articles.

I like Austin, but I think he's a limited striker. But he's VERY good at what he's limited at.

Yeah, on paper they are the tricksy away side. Organised & solid - But rapid & dangerous on the counter.

Updated. Decent set of results.

Swapping an Austin for an Augustin? Are we asking £30m for Charlie then?!

Think both of them are still on as of 80 mins (following by text commentary). Palace getting strikers fit. Benteke & Wickham both getting minutes.

Levy probably quietly happy. Good time to have a wobble with Utd doing so well when they want Poch. No: Kane / Alli / Son / Eriksen / Toby

Named a pretty strong side today vs Spurs. Zaha & Townsend both start.

Exactly. Him being sh*te for them does us zero favours. Sixth sense.
