Jeremy Wilson I think.

For me, I always prefer to avoid the promoted teams for the first month. The first few weeks of the season they always play with a spring and can throw some odd results in the mix. I'd prefer to start with a Newcastle/Stoke/Villa style team. Leave the recently promoted sides till October/November time.

I think he's available for around £9m. But I just get nervous with players from the dutch leagues......!

Premier League football, big pay day, more exposure for the Italian national side - yep, I'd think he'd jump at the chance.

It won't. He has always been a target and is a DM style player.

As it is with Oxo, Bale and Theo - we will get very little mention. It will all be about how the former beetroot factory worker was given an amazing opportunity by Liverpool to join his home town club. We are just an insignificance to most.

Nah, he was one of their targets anyway. He's a DM.

Adam went crying to Cortese.

It's mainly because whatever he tweets has been reported minutes earlier via another source. And it doesn't exactly take a genius to work out that Koeman has been speaking to us! So not much of a scoop from Crook there. Been many a time where BBC have broken a story, and then 5 mins later he pops up with ''I understand...''

Interesting suggestion re: Fellani, but not quite sure Man Utd would cut their losses just yet. It seemed they just deployed him wrong last year, I don't think he's a £30m player by any stretch - but he's better than he showed last year. He's pretty capable as a number 10.

Gordon Simpson on Twitter: "#SaintsFC spoke with Ronald Koeman this week. Very much in the frame, although club likely to speak to other candidates as well."

Friday is 'Southampton' day. Everything happens on Friday for us.

Hernandez would be a bit of a signing, wouldn't he? A proper goal scorer. Wasted at Utd, I think he's class.

0% .

Don't be so pointlessly bitter.

He is my number 1 choice. Hope it's sorted soon.

£1m for every time he keeps his clothes on, and avoids front page pictures?

Good manger tbf, but not currently what we need. The club needs an experienced and high profile manager to bring some leadership and direction back to the table.

Maybe this picture/video leak is why he was so desperate for us to accept the bid before this was in the public domain? Whops, too late.

You and Tokyo ready to dissect it?

Thanks Guan, appreciate the info.

Out of contract, Blackpool have said he's all but left them. Currently training with Inter with a view to earning a contract, that's gone quiet though, so not sure if that will occur.

They've got a collection of about 30 of the brightest young players in europe, 1 or 2 may start to get games there, but doubtful. Hate the way they search Europe signing the best young talent, not playing it, and farm it out to random leagues in Europe. A total waste of the talent pool.

Oh dear adam. what are you doing!!

Also, another name to throw out there - Chadli? Being let go as well, always quite rated him. Don't think he's done quite badly at Spurs? I think there are a few players we can poach from them, potentially. (At some point..!) I think they've got too many AMC style players as a start, and will start to trim it down.
