Saint Scott

Cahill confirmed to Bournemouth. Can we even afford Caleta-Car? Hes valued on transfermarkt at £22.5m and Marseille paid over £17m for him. Surely he's going to cost in excess of £25m with his contract still having a couple of years remaining.

Forster, but they're both not fit for purpose.

Let's hope the club get this done in time for the opening game so Armstrong can feature in some respect. Not overly keen on obafemi or long being the impact subs from the bench

If we can keep vesty, bring in Armstrong, Delaney plus competition for perraud then will be a good reinvestment from the ings money.

Great deal at that price he is a talent and has done a great job in an average championship side. Considering Buendia went for £40m this looks like a steal. Lets hope we can get this done

They've now posted all of his goals from last season. This must be leading to some kind of announcement #clutchingatstraws https://fb.watch/6tn-PuTY_8/

On the OS now too. No mention of a fee but some sizeable wages off the books at least.

Transfermarkt has a 75% probability of him signing on his page👀

I'm holding out hope that Ralph has matched up Leicester's formation. Yes, I am clutching at straws

I've been raplhs biggest fan even through the 9-0 defeats. But zero plan b every game. Players look clueless with no creative spark. Time for a change

Ralph is at fault for decisions in this game. McCarthy shouldn't be near the team and at fault yet again for a goal. Should never be beaten by Neto from there. The substitutions are bewildering. Armstrong ran the first half, what is his fascination with Redmond. Sick of capitualing as soon as something goes against us.

Our own downfall. Bednarek taking a swipe at a shot McCarthy was about to gather for their second, stupidity right at the end of the first half to concede the third. 25 minutes against 10 men and the last 20 minutes against 9 constantly pissing about the middle of park. Where's the creativity to switch it up!? A long switch from vestergard or some 1 touch passing through the middle. No, let's continually pass it to Redmond who couldn't take the ball past a child. The most infuriating game I've watched in years. Any other team would of put that Newcastle team to bed in 10 minutes of that second half

Any chance of Jan's red being rescinded?

Sky now reporting we are interested in Tanganga from Spurs on loan. Celtic also in talks. Levy's chance to begin mugging us off royally for Ings in the summer

Clearly wanted CM assurances which he wouldn't of got. A shame but no surprise

Yes please Ronan Murphy @swearimnotpaul DeichStube say another Premier League club is in for Milot Rashica, not Aston Villa. No indication of which one, but he had been linked with Southampton and Leeds. #AVFC #SVW #SaintsFC #LUFC

Adam Blackmore @AdamBlackmore · 1m #saintsfc exploring options to add a wide man/10 to their roster Theo Walcott is a live loan option and would add experience, utility, as well as his undoubted talent - and I understand is keen to re-join Saints at this stage Other options being pursued - could be a long day

Can't understand the negative response to Theo. Ultimately if he is backup to Armstrong then he improves the team. Clearly an upgrade on Smallbone.

Ralph's post match interview at Palace suggested he wants another attacking wide option. I wonder if we would be interested in Buendia from Norwich with some of the fee raised with the sale of boufal

SKY SPORTS TRANSFER CENTRE RALPH SEEKS SAINTS REINFORCEMENTS Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl has confirmed the club are actively looking for a new midfielder following the sale of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg earlier in the summer to Tottenham. Club Brugge striker Emmanuel Dennis has been linked with the club but Hasenhuttl wouldn't be drawn on the reported deal involving Wesley Hoedt going to Belgium. Alex McCarthy will remain the No 1 Saints 'keeper despite Fraser Forster returning from his Celtic loan. Forster or Angus Gunn will be loaned out this season, Hasenhuttl confirmed. He said: "More needs to be done, absolutely. We know we have lost a No 6 with Pierre gone and we need to do something. There is a long way to go. "There is still time to go but we have a good XI. We have a lot of games this season so we'll need some alternatives."

SKY SPORTS TC: SAINTS COOL NTCHAM INTEREST Southampton showed initial interest in Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham but that is no longer expected to lead to a deal. It’s understood Lyon and Porto are also interested in the 24-year-old, with Porto trying to sign Ntcham last summer.

Steven Davis was 8

Agreed, he has established himself well but I feel Fulham will drop at the first time of asking again. Dale Stephens has less than a year left on his contract and given his age Reed may be seen as an ideal successor.
