He's not going to decide to stay, way too long down the line. Just want it done and confirmed so we (and everyone) can move on.

I've just been playing FM and noticed Koeman got sacked by saints at the back end of last season. Southampton appointed Rudi Garcia as his replacement. I think this confirms any speculation. I'm ITK.

Doesn't say much about the confidence of managers if they're worried about a Top 6 club damaging their reputation.

FF will not be leaving.

He's just signed a new 5 year contract, I'd say the chances of him leaving this summer are slim-to-none.

Awful game to be honest, such low on quality.

Lallana is a bit of an almost player to be honest. Almost scores a great goal, almost provides a great assist, almost makes a good pass. His finishing and final product have also been incredibly powder-puff to be honest. But he looks pretty in the buildup before almost playing that pass.

We clearly weren't utter ****e, anyone who thinks that is just bitter.

Hodgson threw that away with that final sub. Our strength is attacking, so don't take off our pace outlet and replace them with Milner. Mental. And that was also not the first time Rose was done in that game. A good attacking outlet, but an horrific defender.

Ok, not a single piece of that article states any of that. Well done for re-writing it though.

If he maintains the level he showed in the opening game, then PSG/Barca/Real may sniff.

I think it's more a long the lines of the club not wanting to offer him a new deal.

What about Edrique Howendez?

Fair enough, will keep an eye out! Not sharing the same holiday destination as Koeman are you? Have a good one!

Cheers Guan. Do you have any further updates in terms of what's going on with Ronald first off....? And if we're still actively trying to acquire players?

When I say not a fit, I'm more referring to what we usually seem to look for in managers in terms of their age etc. He'd be a bit of a left field appointment in that sense, but still - terrific manager.

How many more moves does he need to have before people realise he's 'gone' at the top level? Such a shame as he was a world star, but that injury has finished him at any decent level.

Marco Silva I think he mentioned.

He's got a bit of a man crush on him I think.

Sometimes it's a bit more than looking at goals and assists though. Mane is clearly technically a lot better and quicker, although you can't really compare them as they play in similar positions. Denney is alright, but he didn't set the world alight last year (for me..). I personally thought he'd do a little better than he did. Spread of goals over the season isn't bad: http://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=46441

http://www.football-espana.net/58975/emery-waiting-psg Seems like Rudi Garcia is being linked with the (potential) Sevila job. If we did get him though (Garcia) at least we'd be able to resurrect the Rudi Skacel song...

Ah well, it'll make the summer interesting! Although we're still waiting to actually lose our manager....something fishy going on there with this delay IMO.

Sorry! It would be utterly ridiculous to be honest. I think SuperSAINT is right when he think's it's Vitor to be honest, seems a solid fit.

If £15-£20m is the going price for Deeney, and it's still rejected, then jesus christ this is going to be an expensive window. £30m for Mane? jog on. If those prices are being talked about for Denney, I'd want £50m upwards for Mane.
