Full twitter conversation Mirror bloke was being sarcastic.

Lallana is worth more than Hooper on his own. Your mate is probably winding you up.

Between this lot and titus Bramble, the prison league is probably going to be on a par quality wise with the SPL next season

Kermorgant, Fuller, if they really are selling Hooper those are some disappointing replacements.

Watch out for his tiny feet.

Pics or it didn't happen!

Neither Saints or Celtic should be sniffing around Rob Hulse, total donkey.

http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/transfer-news/Southampton-to-tempt-Celtic-striker-Gary-Hooper-with-a-mega-bucks-deal-article854962.html Mirror now reporting we have gone in again.

Rhodes would be a great signing, 21, been one of L1's best strikers for the last three seasons and his goal tally this season shows he needs to make the step up. 32 in 24 games across all competitions is unbelievable

So the name of the signing you talk about has still not been mentioned. Are we any closer to the club being able to reveal this mystery man?

Not slagging off a player to rightly point out that they can only play at their best for a certain amount of time.

Despite RLs obvious talents and contribution to our recent success, I'm not sure he'll be as sought after as other strikers. He's 30 in February and I imagine for what the club would ask for as a transfer fee, given his importance to the team, interested clubs would back off since in all honesty I doubt he is going to be at his peak for too many more seasons.

Fourth_Official does get stuff right, but his hit rate with Saints in the summer was 0. OTOH, he wasn't alone amongst twitter ITKs and agents who thought we were going to make huge signings. Okaka would be quite a signing mind you.

No he didn't! (winter break in Switzerland)

that football agent12 twitter is suspicious IMO. Only started tweeting this month and hasn't got a deal right yet.

Aren't Celtic meant to be looking at Hamdi?

The headline states the second bid was 6m, but the story can only go as far as saying "reports have suggested the south-coast club could be willing to go to £6million in their bid for a reunion." Seems like the journo based the amount we bid second time round on hearsay. Don't think any of these journalists have a clue beyond what Neil Lennon is saying at press conferences tbh. Also Rhodes would be daft to go to Celtic, if not in January, then certainly in the summer he'll have his pick of a number of PL clubs given his goalscoring record and age.

George Weah does have three sons...triple swoop on the cards?

Twitter Journalist reckons the clubs being talked about for this lad are Coventry and the Skates

Considering we were approaching Celtic about Hooper after the club revealed we were in for Lee, I think Adkins wants two strikers in during this window. After all, excluding Lee and Lambert, our options at the moment are either an out of position player like Guly, injury concerns like Barnard and DC or someone who doesn't really belong in this league inJonathon Forte Other than that, the interest in Commons suggests they want a wide man. Hopefully if we sign one they are direct and aggressive in their forward play (like Chaplow) Echo article also implied we are looking at further CB cover in addition to Hooiveld, which would be sensible given Seabourne's status and Jaidi's advancing years/injuries.

It is an odd term to use to describe a 6ft tall man, I'd guess the reporter didn't do any research and fell back on the stereotype of Asians being small in stature.

According to the Sanfrecce Hiroshima website he is 182 cm (6ft) and weighs 73kg (11st 7) In comparison Lambert is 188 cm (6 ft 2) and 76.73kg (12st 1)

Puncheon was on loan with MK Dons when we signed him. Not that I think we could get Vela to drop down to Championship when he is playing in La Liga

http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/arsenal-face-a-battle-for-saints-4m-teen-6287747.html Selling would be contradictory to NC and NA's dream to have half the team come from the academy. Seems to me that someone (Agent) is out to unsettle him before he signs professional papers with us.
