Surprised Romeu is starting.

Everton and Southampton currently ‘vying’ to sign Man City speedster, and he wants transfer: Source: http://sportwitness.co.uk/everton-southampton-currently-vying-sign-man-city-speedster-wants-transfer/

Possible, but I'd assume something might be happening if Cedric doesn't play tonight.

Possible of there is a missing decimal point.

Assume he starts tonight with Valery out.

K,Billy posted a link to a right back from there the other day, which could indicate a move.

Saints consider Leipzig captain Willi Orban Probably the Bundesliga player Nixon was saying was proving tricky.

Solanke & Mepham... Almost seems like they are preparing a sale to me.

Jim White on Talksport saying the Bournemouth / Mepham deal could be done by lunch time. (for £12m).

That's a shame. Given how they've played recently, selling Wilson & rebuilding must be quite tempting.

Read it again this morning & it's good.

Only 2 goals for them. Scored about 300 goals in pre-season for them. Needs a good run without injury & I think he can score some goals lower down.

Ings back in training today.

Seager currently on trial at Bristol Rovers. Could indicate a Will Wood type situation where we've told him we aren't going to resign him so we let him go out to different clubs during the season to help them find a club. https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/southampton-starlet-currently-trial-bristol-2431369

Echo article saying that Tyreke Johnson & Marcus Barnes "both expected to return to the Saints squad for tonight’s clash against Derby County" despite playing for the U23's on Sunday."

Over 6ft? I'm sold on him already.

Maybe. They could just bodge Milner there though. Fabinho used to be a right back too.

Makes sense if Ralph doesn't like him to ship him out, bring in a replacement and hopefully have some leftover to add to the transfer pot.

Doesn't scream "fast paced high pressing"

Alan Nixon has been saying for a while we're looking for a 60k wage contribution for any deal.

Obafemi out for a further 3 weeks. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/17357162.southampton-striker-michael-obafemi-will-miss-crucial-games/

That answers the question of 'why now?'

Now that's a tough job. Interesting to see who they will go for.

I know Norwich went down, but pretty sure his contract was running down there too.

According to a report in The Sun, apparently we want to extend his contract. (No surprise there!) https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2019/01/14/do-report-hasenhuttl-makes-decision-about-future-of-southamptons/
