We want both Rudoni and Spertsyan and Spors is aiming to get them done by the end of the week. 

Aribo will be gone as already mentioned and Smallbone would head out too. Matsuki on loan again. 

So central midfield options would be Charles, Downes, Fernandes (sale dependant), Spertsyan, Rudoni and Sesay. 

So we're at what, 0 out of 5 for this week then?

Wingers we’ve scouted recently: Fellows (WBA), Sima (Brighton), Abdoulie Manneh (Mjallby), Carlos Vicente (Alaves), Dominik Fitz (Austria Vienna), Tyreece Campbell (Charlton), Lewis Koumas (Liverpool). 

Are you expecting us to sign any of these?

[DT]

We are one injury away from having McCarthy ‘in’ ‘goal’. Get a bloody keeper, Saints.

We are in the Championship, not Champions League.

I think there are more important positions to fill first, like wingers and creativity, and if time/money left and we can recruit better than what we have, then sure, but clearly isn’t the priority.

Whilst it's still too soon to start worrying about our lack of transfer activity, I'm starting to ponder whether or not Spors is all he's cracked up to be. We were told to expect a 'very active' transfer window but, up to now, it's all been relatively quiet. 

We're either in for a 'fun' 2 weeks coming up or it'll transpire that Spors and/or Dragan are all mouth and no trousers. And, as we all know.... No trousers, no party.... 😁

Then we would still be two injuries from AM in goal. Get two bloody keepers! Actually make it three to be safe.

At least one winger is needed. One more would be nice...but Edozie needs to be shifted first. I'm not sure that Still dislikes BBD as much as the fans though. 

CM/AM urgent if/when Fernandes goes, but we won't buy until one or both of Smallbone or Aribo goes - just too many midfielders on our books. 

Yep, GK not a priority, but we can't carry on with Moody as 3rd pick.

My favourite parties are the ones where there are no trousers TBF.

It's nowt to do with walking the walk. We have had years of shit transfer policy and shit players that we can't shift. It's not a coincidence we are in this division struggling to shift the deadwood. If we could shift them then it wouldn't be an issue, but if no-one wants them we're stuck. 

Spors had been discussing interest in players with agents since he joined - that plan that he will have discussed with Still when he arrived on our squad composition to inform him of what we expect the squad to look like come the end of the Summer. The problem is those agents have not been doing their jobs well in selling those players to other clubs.

No sales, no incomings.

[Willo of Whiteley]

BBD is a weird one. Not once in a Saints shirt has he looked even vaguely competent, he doesn’t strike me as a confident player either, someone to grab the game by the scruff of the neck.

Also, he just isn’t a winger, he might think he is, but he just isn’t. He hardly qualifies as a footballer from what we’ve seen; so I’m fascinated to know what WS thinks of him, or whether he is one of those players that wants out etc.

Yeah, I have to be honest I've switched from dislike of BBD to puzzlement. He can't always have been this bad, he's had a pretty decent career, so I wonder if Still was talking about him and Archer in particular when he said some players need to remember how good they are and 'trauma'.

I mean, having to play Russ' purgatory-ball and probably getting yelled at for trying anything risky, then being frozen out of the 2nd worst PL team of all time can't be good for your confidence. Fraser seems reinvigorated by Still but I think he has that stubborn resilient kind of character maybe the other 2 don't.

Agreed. Feels like we've still got a lot of business to do on the selling side - we could do with shifting BBD, ABK, Aribo, Smallbone and Edozie sooner rather than later and then we've still got the big 2 who will inevitably go.

Still could do worse by returning him back to his young days at Forrest where he played as a number 9, down the middle. He was pretty decent with his back to goal, linking the play. Not sure how or why he has become an inside forward. 

[Willo of Whiteley]

There’s still a lot of deadwood at the club. I think of of Matty Fernandes or Tyler Dibling is staying now, I imagine Dibling is the more expendable one because of FFP (100% profit etc). But I don’t see us losing both unless we’re offered stupid money.

ABK contract I think will be terminated on the final day of the window if he’s still here. A bit like Ryan Fraser was at Newcastle last season prior to us signing him.

Edozie saga seems to be rumbling on, he clearly doesn’t want to be here.

BBD as discussed above, who knows, I’m presuming he wants to stay? But I’m basing that on the fact he’s been a part of pre-season and match day squads.

Will Smallbone will probably still be here, I’d be surprised if he left. There’s been one report of him leaving, but no other links aside from that.

Two weeks to sign a GK, maybe a RB on loan, a midfielder and a couple of wide players - hopefully they’ll have a bit of pace about them to offer us something different.

Still said we don't have the players to play with wide forwards at the moment, so I assume he doesn't rate BBD as a winger either.

Think you are correct re BBD.  Robinson looks like he’s being viewed as what used to be called inside left - pretty much like Armstrong is being used as an inside right. So we are winger-lite. 

I think the general consensus to qualify as an great out and out winger is that, minimum, you MUST have footballing intelligence, pace, close ball/one on one dribbling skills, a good cross and a good shot. Being two footed is a great advantage as is being able to compete physically in the air or in ground.

But #1 and so often overlooked is surely football intelligence. And I think that’s why Ryan Fraser is seemingly flourishing - of all the wing/forwards he’s probably got the highest footballing IQ in our squad. And that’s not truthfully a high enough bar- no disrespect to Ryan at all love the wee man.

I saw him play there for Forest against Arsenal, he must only have been about 19 and when he was just known as boring old Ben Brearton. He was excellent and though he was a potential star in the making. Maybe he needs to return to that position and also drop the Diaz bit again.

I  don't know but my guess is that he's piled on a fair bit of timber since he was 19. He always looks overweight to me compared with most professional footballers. Maybe it's an optical illusion.

Can only assume the club expected Fernandes and Dibling to leave, and therefore be flush with cash to go shopping. I was more concerned a few weeks ago when that seemed to be likely and there was limited rumours in the press.

In fairness to Spors as well, if anyone thought we were going to get relegated (losing the prem related revenue streams) and be flush with cash to go on a shopping spree without some major sales, then i don't think its fair to blame Spors/Solak for fans' lack of critical thinking skills... 😅

As it is, we've shifted Ramsdales, Sulemana, Onuachu, Bednarek, SAA out for a combination of a transfer fee and removal of their wages.

Simialrly, KWP, Lumley, Lallana, Ugochukwu, Gronbaek are all off the wage bill compared to last season.

There is potential for Edozie, Smallbone, and Aribo to also be heading for the exits. Not to mention to infamous ABK... (dare we dream?)

Against that, we've gained Charles (superb little player at this level), Edwards (promising young CB and competent at this level), Downs (promising squad player), and Quarshie (looks decent imo - and crucially lets us play a high line) so far.

Crucially - we've kept what i would say is an important spine of the team in THB, Downes, and seemingly Fernandes. 

If we stopped here for "transfers" then frankly i would be delighted with the summer - we would have a very strong championship squad, will have kept our best players for a push on the prem, and will likely still dip into the loan market.

Siting here now, it doesn't seem as unlikely that we somehow keep both Dibling and Fernandes. But if we do sell either of them, we can at least now see that we are being linked with some good calibre replacements. Equally though, its possible that the funds raised from selling the squad players (purple above) will be the sales that release the funds to sign the likes of Spertsyan (although unlikely) and we keep dibling and fernandes and strengthen. And even if we don't keep, who won't actually be happy if we do sell dibling and go out and buy Spertsyan and someone else like Rudoni and Scienza for example?

And again - we still have the loan market to dip into.

As it stands - i think we're on the cusp of a very good window. A lot of deadwood cleared out (a few more to go mind), a strong squad for the champ with a good core of young players that can develop and hopefully get us promoted and go on to mount a successful relegation defence next season.

Yeah, that’s a pretty good summary that reflects how I feel right now. There’s definitely unfinished business in terms of outgoings such as Aribo, ABK, Smallbone and Edozie and it was clear that it would be difficult to shift these players…particularly ABK whose life as a pro footballer at anything other than a club at grass roots level is probably over.

The only imperative for Spors now is the addition of creative midfielder such as Spertsyan (who would be an incredible find if it happens). If somehow either Rudoni or Scienza also come in you’d have to say it’s been an exceptional window given the changes required, even if we do end up losing Dibling. Losing Fernandes would be a blow unless both Rudoni and Scienza come in. I’m not convinced BBD has anything to offer the team unless both Stewart and Downs are both out injured at the same time which is unlikely, however I feel sure he’s not leaving this window.

Similar. Went to Stamford Bridge with the brother on law and saw him cause Chelsea a few problems. I see a totally different player now in a role he's not fit for.

I think pretty much the whole world knows by now that area between full back and cb is where most goals from open play come from, be it a long ball to set a pacey winger free, or a winger coming inside to shoot. What on earth is Brereton doing in there?

He's filled out a bit since he was 19, which you'd think would be an advantage if he played as a target man.

I don't agree, if we stop here today then the squad isn't good enough as an overall collective - sure, some good individuals but we'll be forced to accommodate formations due to a lack of tactical options

It's absolutely critical that we sign wide players and attacking midfielders before September. The right signings in the next few weeks could put us into the auto conversation.

If everything stayed as it was right now, playoffs at a push.

Agree with on BBD. He's best played through the middle - all his best highlights from his earlier career are where he is played like that.

He is not a wide player.

We know from Parsons at the Solent forum that both are for sale for the right price. We just havent been offered that yet and could also reduce our demands.

We know from recent example that relegated teams need to raise a lot of cash to balance the loss in PL revenues.

We know that we have only loaned Ramsdale and haven't yet sold THB so we clearly need to sell at least one of Dibling or Fernandes to raise some big cash.

We know that if Dibling and or Fernandes stay then they would start every week so signing anyone for a lot of money who plays the same position would be a little silly.

Based on all of the above I think its almost certain that one of Dibling or Fernandes goes and very likely that both do, which then enables more incomings for us.

Armstrong and Robinson are not natural wingers. They are inside forwards, different thing. 

Fraser, yes, he's a touch line hugging player who will stretch the pitch - which is what Still wants. We don't have enough of those sorts.

Isn't his favoured formation 4231 rather than 433? He used 4231 in pre season.  It is notably different in that a 433 had a single pivot vs a double in the 4231. Plus we'd need a number 10 role player in the 4231 which you don't have on 433.

You genuinely think it’s “a big if” we’ll buy anyone if we sell Fernandes and/or Dibling?

Think you’re being a bit silly.
