Or could argue they did bl00dy well to get to pens without Kane / Alli / Son.

They are paying all of his wages.

Today in fact!

Boufal's was low too. You have to entice them. They won't pay silly money.

Whatever it is has needed fixing.

£1m euro's for the loan fee apparently. Cheaper than what some of the big clubs want for their players. Plus they are paying ALL of his wages.

Ramsay probably as back-up for Valery at wing-back.

Assuming Targett isn't badly injured, we will have Valery/Ramsay & Bertrand/Targett competing for the wing-back roles.

He's just reading the Portuguese reports.

Loans seem quicker to sort out. I'm sure we get a hefty loan fee & Inter big enough to pay all of wages. I assumed it would be a loan as their current right back is on loan, not to mention they wanted Darmian on loan with option to buy as well. With that said, lets not forget the Gabbi deal was supposed to be a loan too, but that seemed to change.

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure I'd hang my hat on that.

Don't think there's any chance of him going without a replacement being lined up. Whether Inter will pay what we want would be another matter.

He ruptured his ACL early November. Fingers crossed he's recovering well.

Good interview with him on the OS. https://southamptonfc.com/news/2019-01-24/programme-feature-interview-matt-targett-january-2019

Really good interview with Lloyd James. https://www.fgr.co.uk/news/january-2019/big-interview-lloyd-james Makes me feel old now as I remember him as our old youth team captain back in the day.

Certainly hope you're right.

Yeah, that's come from out of nowhere (a bit like the Hoedt deal). I'd assume it'll be a loan. But lets see what happens.

That goes towards paying for Ings.
