Not now. Was an interesting link I posted in the Rodriguez thread a little further down if you want a read. Tell ya what, I'll link it here: http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/west-brom-transfers-summer-swoop-12528206

His move to Celtic was a tremendous career move IMO. A move the Chelsea would be the complete opposite.

Don't see us landing Sakho. Too many ££'s on wages.

Doesn't Tancredi just copy Di Marzio all the time?

Has he had his medical then?

SSN: Chelsea are interested in signing Celtic striker Moussa Dembele – but it may cost then £40m to secure a move to Stamford Bridge. We understand Celtic are extremely reluctant to sell in this window and would not consider a bid below £40m.

I would say they don't really know yet. Lets assume 3 months and be happy if it's less.

BBC Solent Sport ‏@solentsport #Saintsfc defender Virgil Van Dijk set to be out for "at least a few weeks" according to boss Claude Puel

With Tasci being a loan, we are still looking at going into next season needing to replace both Jose & Virgil.

@DeanJonesBR: Burnley closing in on Hull full-back Andy Robertson, a £10m offer to be accepted

Linked with Bristol City: http://m.bristolpost.co.uk/bristol-city-linked-with-southampton-winger-lloyd-isgrove/story-30096337-detail/story.html That would be a good move for him IMO.

Hope the black-box is studying Ryan Sessegnon at Fulham.

I notice Ox still hasn't signed a new deal at Arsenal... Would def have him back in the summer.

I believe they wanted him but can remember Nixon saying pre-season that Claude liked what he saw of him so decided to keep him. I'm still not sure why as he wouldn't have got into the diamond formation. Ipswich would be a good move. As long as he plays.

I did. Don't judge me Tasci?

If Virgil is out long-term, that is crazy!

Would agree with that - We could just say our "Serie A" signings have been sh*t if we want to bracket them.

West Ham might fancy a punt on that.

We will go back to "full strength" for this one so players would have had nearly a weeks recovery. Swansea have had ages to prepare for this game which is the worry. Let's not forget Virgil & Fonte are huge misses for us. Llorente is going to be an absolute handful for us. Need to take our chances. Really want us to get something from this game.

No.
