Seems strong and mobile with good close control and JWP free kick skills.

It makes me realize what a good job Hassenhutl did keeping us in the Premier League with players like Jan as the best in his position. Nothing against JB, but he's been lucky to have so many seasons as a starter in the PL. Hopefully now he's gone, and we're reverting to a more physical style, we'll be more successful.

I thought he looked decent and quite strong and big for his age, anyway it's likely moot as he is said to be out of our league https://sportwitness.co.uk/transfer-to-southampton-considered-unlikely-liverpool-interested-months-ago-relegation-unhelpful/

"Four of Leeds' six signing are 6ft 1in or taller, with head coach Daniel Farke clearly keen to add height and physicality to the squad which won promotion from the Championship last season." It'll be interesting to see how they get on, given that this now seems to be our plan.

Interest in ABK, supposedly... https://sportwitness.co.uk/white-flag-raised-on-signing-tottenham-player-turning-to-southampton-option-instead/

"Get promoted he may even be sold at a profit..." 🤪

According to the Echo... "Saints could decide to sign someone better than Bazunu and McCarthy, but have more pressing areas for high-value recruitment." 🤬

Optional Softer Alternative (if you want less bite): "See" is a verb. I think it was intended to be mocking.

Fuck, I'm bored

From that I thought Bereton Dias looked alright. Perhaps he'll come good now he's not being asked to play in last season's horseshoe formation, which I thought left him very alone.

Those on a long contract will have to kick up a fuss if they want to leave and we haven't received an offer that forces our hand. I'm hoping we can keep Fernandes. I don't think anyone's stupid enough to pay what we'd expect for THB. Ramsdale has reportedly said he wants to leave, and we've been linked with a few goalies.

Oh my fucking God

Seems a strong lad with quick feet Hasn't scored that many, but looks decent I'd say

I remember JWP being a bit like that until Hassenhutl had a word

Interest in ABK, apparently https://www.getfootballnewsgermany.com/2025/hamburg-join-race-to-sign-southamptons-armel-bella-kotchap/

"Things are heating up for Adriano Bertaccini! Coventry, Norwich, and Southampton have made enquiries with the player’s entourage, no direct contact with STVV yet. "Anderlecht are not out of the running yet. Asking price: £6-7m."

No

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/jun/30/sheffield-wednesday-facing-efl-action-and-possible-walkout-after-failing-to-pay-players Wednesday failing to pay wages again, Rohl hasn't turned up for pre-seaon and his coaching staff have all left. Our owners may have made mistakes but at least they aren't the sort of clueless fantasists that some clubs get lumbered with.
