apparently, there is NO ONE ELSE that we could get other than long at around £12m who would you rather have. Long or Welbeck?

Will be a tough game. Holloway has got them playing some decent stuff. Depends how seriously each side takes this game.

Might go to that. Be in London that week

Not a bad effort if those two are the last ones You would expect another in jan. Where ever we appear very weak within the squad Which right now, appear to be a wide player. But we will see in a few months

Van hanegem. Thanks for the message. Welcome

how is that going to work in a 433?

saying positive start is essential. kind set of fixtures at the start, need to take points Liverpool game will be fascinating bad feeling towards lallana and lovren if koeman gets these players gelling straight away, there could easily be an upset (responding to the fact saints will never break into the top selection of clubs) impossible. unless the club spend £300m+ aim for this season should be on consolidation fans are FULLY behind RK. anywhere between 9-14th would be a good season all things considering

Luke Shaw out for a month not a good start for him and lallana

I will be amazed if Arsenal fail in top 4. They are wiley campaigners at the top end and very used to CL football within league fixtures. Ramsey has come of age and they have a very impressive squad. better than liverpool, that is for sure

how does every other team manage it? how have everton managed it this summer, they were not top 4 how come we can manage it now with morgan and jrod, but nor with chambers and say, lambert? havent we been told time and time again that the sales were absolutely NOT financially motivated?

if that is aimed at me, how is saying NO (basically, saying I dont think we are doing anything like everton do/did) sneering at anything what so ever? my vision. simple really, what most of the footballing world outside of saintsweb think....simply do not sell half the team in one window that is my vision. its hardly revolutionary/impossible as nearly all teams manage it every summer

how is it pessimistic to not think we are not following a model based on everton?

I do not think so, really

Djimi Traore has won the champions league. walk in to any side in europe - FACT

they played 442, didnt they kebe and McAnuff on the wings?

I wonder if anyone would be delighted if they signed mayuka from us. we were 8th and all that

who loses their place for Long? be interesting to see where he plays

poor teams? WBA finished 8th and hull come runners up in the Cup and now in Europe? how were we that much better/going to be that much better?

Irene. Who's bench will he be sitting on then. As as good as he is, can't see him now coming in and being another no.1 in the prem unless there is n injury

Who's bench will he be sitting on then?

has he signed yet..? we cant get any one over the line and on the bus/plane/in the cafe ffs

at least he is a fairly pacey type of player who have good movement and puts in a 'shift' as they say which is something different from pelle, who appears more of a target man get rodriguez back firing and we will have a decent attack, looking at it just hope koeman gets the performances out of rodriguez that MP managed to

but we are talking domestic transfers Kroos was in he final year of his contract and costing over £200k a week in wages you never mentioned carroll
