SuperSAINT

I think Rickie often goes through a spell like this, and it's normally down to a niggling injury. He's been magnificent for us this year. Would be delighted to see him get the winner tomorrow.

Around £35m.

Wanyama is very highly rated. Think he'd be a great signing. Don't know much about the other two. I'd trust MP's judgement on Gamez though.

I think every club intends on getting it done early, but I guess it's hard to get deals done with the backwards & forwards deal making.

Fantastic news. Didn't think we'd hear anything until after the final game. Well done Nicola & thank you Katharina. My summer optimism has returned

Love them. I'd be happy with both of those.

Not linked with him, but can remember his name being mentioned on here.... http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/8717870/Premier-League-Wilfried-Bony-set-to-continue-talks-with-interested-parties

Couple of bits from the papers about stuff relating to us:- -- The Daily Express also reports that Arsenal, Tottenham and Fulham are tracking Watford striker Matej Vydra, who has yet to decide whether to return to parent club Udinese, stay at Watford or move elsewhere. -- Chelsea and Tottenham have both made moves for 17-year-old Southampton left-back Luke Shaw, according to The Times.

Wouldn't say we open our mouth's that much, TBH.

Not going to be easy to attract players now, is it?

Swansea are close to signing Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku, 20, on loan and have also reached an agreement with 25-year-old Real Betis midfielder Jose Canas who is out of contract this summer, according to the Daily Mail. Great move for them if they can pull that off.

Alex Goring Crook ‏@alex_crook Mauricio Pochettino has told us this morning he will quit #saintsfc if Nicola Cortese retires as chairman Pochettino said: "I would not continue if Nicola Cortese was not here. It would not make any sense if I was at this club and he wasn’t."

Are those Liverpool kits legit? Home kit looks fine, the other 2 look terrible.

Shebby Singh.

* MOSaint beat me to it

I very much hope Mr Crook is right. I've been buzzing about this summer for Saints, and now I'm gutted.

F-f-s

lol

"Completely undermines Nat Clyne's position and confidence"

If memory serves, didn't we go in for both J-Rod & Trippier? (Didn't get either at the time, though)

This.

I'm not sure being interested in the Malaga captain should be looked on as a bad thing...

Nothing particularly noteworthy, but Blackpool have (unsurprisingly) had options taken up to extend contracts of both Ince & Phillips... http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/12691/8701432/Blackpool-extend-contracts-of-Tom-Ince-Matt-Phillips-and-ten-others

It's good to see him refreshed - I thought he was still recuperating from his sterling work during the Gaston Ramirez saga last summer
