Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. With that said, they look to leave after wonderful, recordbreaking seasons too.

I'd have taken a midfielder scoring 6 goals! I was with you on that one. Seemed to be to be the most obvious signing to make.

If Liverpool stopped d*cking around and actually bid £65m+ they would get him.

He did have a loan spell there -was there for the last couple of seasons. Scored 15 goals from midfield.

I don't believe the release clause story.

Lewis Baker linked with clubs today. Looks a fine prospect IMO.

You'd have thought VvD / Bertrand / Romeu would be higher on their Saints shopping list. Here's the link: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/sport/klopp-plots-southampton-raid-for-tadic-29ztr92r9

Ludicrous that Butland isn't No.1 choice.

I'm still waiting for his Pellegrini story to come true.

I like to think we've known what's going on with Claude for some time now and aren't dithering around in talking to other candidates. I'm guessing we'd like a takeover timed with new manager arriving.

It was very likely Mitchell recommended Koeman too.

It can't be coincidence.

Claude's has more lucidity...

Speaking of Ajax, Palace talking to FdB.

Awesome work, mate.

PALACE IN DE BOER TALKS Former Ajax and Inter Milan manager Frank de Boer is in talks to take over at Crystal Palace and Sky Sports News HQ understands he is one of a number of candidates under consideration by the Selhurst Park board. De Boer has been patiently waiting for a new job, since his departure from Inter last year and was linked with the vacant post at Rangers four months ago, but said he did not want to take over in the middle of a season.

He makes Marc Jackson look like a clever businessman.

If correct, then I suppose the new ruling does NOT prelude Gao Jisheng & Lander?

It does. Everyone is guessing. (If it is going to happen tomorrow, I imagine the big hitters will release articles tonight.)

Simon Peach says he's been told it's not complete.

"Southampton FC now have a new owner. Surprised the deal actually went through....." That's confidence

Oh my goodness. Not that f*cking clown.

Lol. If Lander really are dodge, this might be doing us a favour.
