Peter Galindo ‏@pgalindo16 Gaston Ramirez's agent: "Tottenham? They are not offering what Bologna want. Liverpool? They have never presented a concrete offer." Seems like he's playing games.

Not sure why people get so angry over media predictions. All the more ammunition to prove them wrong come the end of the season.

Michele Tossani ‏@MicheleTossani According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Southampton's deal to bring Ramirez is down. Bologna said not to the way Saints want to pay him.

AVB said last week that Spurs weren't in for Ramirez anymore I think.

If Ward-Prowse continues to impress, he'll be in the under 21's by the end of the season surely. Future England international.

I agree but to be fair - Fox, Lallana and Rodriguez did well exploiting Zabaleta today.

Yep, we'll all give up after 2 games of the season

It was a made up rumour anyway.

Did they mention a player or just that something is happening?

The same feed which claims P'boro are keen on Bullard, when their chairman has already denied it.

We'll get battered by City even if we do sign 1 or 2 more, lets be honest.

Defend, defend, defend!

Darren '50 pence head' Powell

Didn't do so well in predicting that one then

Probably worth an audacious loan move. But surely they wouldn't ask for £15m on a player with only 1 year left on his contract....

My mistake, thought I'd entered 'The Saints' part of the forum.

And they wonder why we're giving them no sympathy over their ongoing troubles. Scum.

You could say the same happened with Reading last season, except their manager isn't a knob. It's all meaningless and because neither Brighton or Reading at the time (the latter still) don't have a real rival. Bournemouth the same. All 3 clubs have mong fans.

The Buttner deal is important is we are to improve. It appeared that Shaw played in a more advanced role tonight, and both Fox and Buttner (from what we've seen on Youtube, admittedly) like to get forward too and can both play in LM so they can all cover Lallana. The 4 lads, Stephens, Shaw, Ward-Prowse and Chambers weren't promoted to the first team for the sake of it. They're all very talented and I'm sure that in the cup games this year, they'll all be in the starting X1.

Not as near as good as they were last season. Have lost a lot of their squad over the summer to higher league teams, as well as their manager. Still, 11-2 is a mauling.

McDermott's already said no to that one.

The sarcastic comments like "OMG that was so funny :lol:" are just as boring as those who still use the original Skacel joke.

Well yes, I'm sure the club talked the basics of a deal with him and his agent, but they wouldn't want to go too forward with it. 'Tapping up' and all that.
