SuperSAINT

Think he's including Banega...

Crikey. I knew he was highly rated. Didn't know he was £8m rated though.

The 20m Liverpool target?

That is awesome. (But Lamela? - Really?)

5'9"?!

I'm still not sold on Hooper as a lone striker in the prem. 8 million for someone who's out of contract next summer is crazy as well.

Bournemouth or Reading (Under Nigel) would be good clubs for JWP for a season.

Alex Crook has some pretty good sources IMO. (Yes, I know he said don't expect signings until after July 1st - But I'd trust his opinion more than most)

I thought Sainsbury was primarily a centre-back. I'm surprised we've not heard more on the Jesus Gamez deal.

Wasn't he the guy who was supposedly going to choose Bolton over us?

Great stuff

Where's he playing? Wing?

Interesting to see what happens when you break down stats like that, Giordano. Crazy to think that we stayed up last season with a defence that probably cost less than Lovren himself.

Duly noted, Garrett. I mean't Daily Mail was the 1st UK source

Daily Mail was the 1st place to mention it over here I believe. Trousers posted this link on June 7th. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2337720/Southampton-want-Lyons-Dejan-Lovren.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490 Worth noting in the future that *even* articles with typo's can be trusted:-

Yeah, very much. What a coup he was for us in league 1.

Agreed. Cork & Morgan been immense, but won't get far by just having 2. Wanyama / Nainggolan / Biglia were all linked for good reason. Possibly. Depends on where MP see's Rodriguez fitting in, IMO.

Agreed, Batman. DC / DMC / AMRL were what I had down as our priority positions to strengthen.

You mean for this season, Chez? I think both Phillips & Ince were out of contract, but Blackpool had options on both to extend for the extra year which the club took up.

This morning's paper talk re: Players mentioned on this thread. - Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino wants playmaker Joan Verdu from old club Espanyol. - Crystal Palace boss Ian Holloway is reeling after being quoted a stunning £14million fee by old club Blackpool for Thomas Ince and Matt Phillips. - Burnley to put £7million price tag on Charlie Austin to ward off potential interest

I think it probably depends on how highly MP rates Forren.

Ben Smith as well, Charlie. Wasn't it him who broke the 'Cortese considering his future' news?

Had a quick look - Like this one
