Would certainly cover the Boufal January void.

If I was Chelsea I would just hand over the Oscar money for Van Dijk & have done with it.

A "Saintsy" kind of signing.

Is it the lad from Ajax? The Serbian central midfielder? Or a striker? Haller?

I'm surprised Harry hasn't gone out on loan already. Too good for U23 football.

Because they have a new owner who has so far paid our old manager BIG money.

Uh-oh. I love positive Telegraph Saints articles, but then what normally follows is people leaving!

Would I sign him back? YES. Will we sign him back? NO. It's just not what we do. Fair play to WBA though. Don't think they've sold anyone lately to fund this move? Guessing it's just the Chinese investment kicking in.

The same Morgan who in league one said to himself that he would get into the French national side at the World Cup?

I love how they are going to use all that money to re-invest in their team when they probably have about 10 players out on loan who could probably do a job for them replacing Oscar on the bench.

We were mentioned along with Everton as having interest in him before he signed his contract.

The Transfer window must be imminent... Stories of West Ham doing funny stuff starting to leak: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2016/12/21/west-ham-send-begging-letter-premier-leagues-big-five-frantic/

We are out Missed our 1st two pens

Reading hit the bar. Then Harry Lewis makes a great save late on.

We should have put Shlong on the bench as a cheeky over-aged player.

Assuming Barnes & Olomola are injured. Seager only just returned to full training.

LeG was right. None of them involved tonight. (Not surprising in Seager's case, but the other 2 have been great for us this season).

Good to hear about stuff anyway. Berahino will have no shortage of interest both home & abroad. As you say, Stoke have wanted him for a very long time. I would add West Ham & Palace to the list of admirers too. Before he threw his 2 year mega-strop, BIG teams wanted him. Ironically, he's probably better off staying @ WBA.

'Replacement' is relative in our age of rotation, my friend. He would be most welcome.

A good article! - Cheers for posting Convict. I like the sound of his box-to-box attributes. Would fit in well here, I think.
