From Soush-Hampton with Koeman to Sow-tamton with Pelle. Honestly, I ask you!? Brilliant. Looks a great addition. Good sense of humour too. His name is pronounced Pella then. Just need a song.....

That's what I was thinking. It will depend upon how he's welcomed back.

It says "vacation is over :(" on his tweet. Hardly full of enthusiasm to play football. Jury is still out.

We still need a GK, LB, another striker and some impact players. Feeling like we are heading there, but not quite hitting optimism yet. It's coming though...it's coming.

How's his name pronounced? Pella or Pellay?

Good news! Only 6 players left to sign...!

After watching Koemans interview I find my opinion on Lovren changing daily!! I can't work out if we are better shot of him to Liverpool for another rip off fee, or whether Koeman will now be able to turn him round. Fascinating. Can you rebuild a bridge you've burnt down? I guess you can.

Interesting that Koeman said that he had had no chance to talk to Shaw or Lallana, although he was kept informed. Another integrity nail in the Krueger coffin? I thought Les Reed and Wreck it Ralf had stated that all player sales would be up to Koeman. Not bothered now, but an interesting insight. We bungled badly at the start of the summer. Thank god for Koeman now talking the reigns. Love the fact he stated that we will replace our losses with better players.

Lovren needs to note Liverpools ambition. Suarez,gone. End of title hopes, end of another year in the Champions League.

Mmmmmmm..... sometimes a player comes good. All I'm saying is give him a chance. He might just perform.... And I do believe there's more goals in him than Gallagher this season, even if it's half a dozen!

I don't believe any player fakes a goal celebration.

I still think it's funny... Losing Suarez is as good as losing ANY chance they had of champions next season and it's likely that they'll be lucky to re qualify for the Champions League. Hope Lovren is noting Liverpool's ambition.

Don't have a crush, just hope to build his confidence enough to see him fight to prove himself. I'm a fan and we have something in Sharp that has never matured ... until now. Up to him, not me. But until he shows he's not fit to wear the stripes then I am prepared to give him a chance.

You might be right.... But I'd rather him than Gallagher, who I'd be sending to a Championship club on loan to prove himself. Sharp is proven there.... Gallagher is yet to prove himself.

He deserved it. Simple.

This negative thread was the same as the one that Feyanord (can't spell) put on their fans forum when they signed the rubbish Pelle. Sharp is younger. Sharp has his final chance.

Depends who we sign. Sharp or Gallagher on the bench? No brainer... A hungry experienced terrier every time. BILLY SHARP.

He's playing for manure. Ok, they have the second best Dutch manager in the PL, but hey... I'd rather play for manure than chelski.

I think there are a lot of people who may eat their words on this thread. Once a season....someone comes good. Sharp is in his prime and appears hungry to impress. Billy Sharp. Could well be the surprise package. Go Billy. Prove the doubters you're as good as your potential says you are. This is your season.

Great thread. Hope Morgan is reading this.

Captain Mprgan

Sounds like that's the fee with add ons up to £75m

Take note Lallana.

Oh well. From legend to nobody. No sympathy from me. He will never be welcomed back at Southampton. Hope Lovren sees the light and doesn't follow his lead to Liverpool... especially now they are showing such little ambition by selling their best player.

Nice to watch them suffer. They deserve it. Sorry to say this but they deserve it after the way they've tapped up our stars. I hope we beat them on day one and they do really badly. Liverpools chance at winning the Premier League has gone.
