Hope we target their right hand side. Bertrand and Redmond up against Zabaleta could be carnage.

Glad to see Lemina playing Looking at that team, it's got a good balance to it. Fonte starting for West Ham, great news for us.

What the former (and failed) Kidderminster Harriers manager has to say is completely irrelevant

Hoot I think

You know all about making yourself look silly

Not Premier League, but José Fonte's brother has just signed for Fulham

They have no pace up front at all. That is going to be a big problem for them I feel. Add to the extra European games, and I can see them languishing in the 8th/9th/10th positions. Certainly nowhere near the top 4.

Redslo answers many of your questions in his excellent blog post http://redsloscf.blogspot.co.uk/2017/08/how-are-things-going-southampton-2017.html

If he does comes back into the fray, he'll give his all, at least for his teammates' sake, and we'll probably move on and forget eventually. Until May comes around. The fans will boo him initially though. Of that there is no doubt.

They must need him for the homegrown quota If I was West Brom, I'd take the money and invest. We're getting Hoedt, a better defender for less money.

From POL A skate... lecturing us about well run clubs...

Lol, following that, the VVD thread on RAWK has been shut. Looks like their fans may finally be getting the message.

Ralph Krueger has done an interview stating VVD will not be sold. https://audioboom.com/posts/6210154-listen-saintsfc-chairman-ralph-krueger-maintains-club-stance-that-virgil-van-dijk-will-not-be-leaving-in-this-window

Leicester seemed to do OK in getting Mahrez and Kanté. Although they both came from Normandy teams, so maybe we should just concentrate our talent search in that region only.

With it being so late in the window, I can't see us selling him at all. We never sell key first team players in the last couple of weeks before the deadline.

Someone who spoke to Jake personally confirmed it on twitter a few days ago.

No way we will let him go for £15M. Sporting have a 15% sell-on fee too, so that has to be factored in. If he has a good season, his value will increase.

Liverlol providing us with more laughs than the skates these days

I made that mistake, but he's proven himself to be correct on a number of occasions now. Scepticism is a good thing though.

McCarthy IS alive then! Interesting to see how Targett and Hoj do

Oh god Lee Mason is the referee

If he only made the Brazil squad last week, then he won't qualify for a work permit.

RAWK desperately clutching at straws, says that us being taken over is good news for them and means VVD is definitely joining them now.

Number 1 investment priority should be the area around St. Mary's
