Ibrahimovic, Bale, Keane - Major countries’ most expensive teenagers revealed

Show/hide article…

THE transfer market continues to get crazier and crazier, with big money fees being exchanged for relatively unproven players.

The Daily Mail’s research has shown some huge names among the most expensive teenagers for each of the major footballing nations - including several who are play for Manchester United - or have done in the past.

Some - like Sergio Ramos and Romelu Lukaku - have gone on to become huge names in the sport, but the likes of Miralem Sulejmani and Valeri Bojinov never made it to the top.

Steven Gerrard: Liverpool should try and sign this player

Show/hide article…

That is according to Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard. The former Reds captain returned to the club as an academy coach on Friday after retiring from football at the end of last year. And he has some transfer advice for his old team.

“I would go and try and bid for van Dijk from Southampton,” He would love Luis Suarez to return to the club but says van Dijk is more needed. “Who I think we need, I would go and try and bid for van Dijk from Southampton,” he said on BT Sport. “But we’ve had enough of their players so that will probably go down like a lead balloon.”

Jurgen Klopp is yet to make any additions in the transfer window with less than 10 days remaining. Van Dijk has been linked with a move away from Southampton, with Liverpool a possible destination.

Claude Puel says Florin Gardos likely to get Southampton chance following Jose Fonte sale

Claude Puel doesn’t think Southampton will dip into the transfer market

The manager has also revealed that Fonte’s £8million transfer to West Ham could lead to Florin Gardos finally being given a run in the first team.

Saints host Leicester today in the Premier League, hoping to end a run of four straight defeats.

The departure of skipper Fonte, 33, could yet prove a positive given Puel said his squad had found the uncertainty surrounding his future difficult.

Virgil van Dijk and Maya Yoshida are again expected to become the Frenchman’s first-choice central defence.

Puel: Focus on Leicester not Wembley

Show/hide article…

CLAUDE Puel believes Saints “cannot have any other ambition” but to stop the rot in the Premier League – even with a dream Wembley final up for grabs in the League Cup.

With Saints losing four straight top flight games, Puel revealed that he can ill afford to put importance on anything other than turning around their ailing fortunes in the Premier League.

That means the St Mary’s chief intends to put all his effort into the visit of Leicester City today, partly disregarding Saints’ trip to Liverpool in the League Cup semi-final second leg on Wednesday night, in which they take a 1-0 aggregate lead.

“I think the most important game is Leicester,” he said. “It is important to stop this situation, the losses in the Premier League.

“We need a good result and points now to be sufficient. After, the cup is a good thing. It is an exciting game and we will have time to consider this game.

“The most important game is Leicester. After that to play Liverpool after this game in the semi-final leg is another thing.”

He added: “It is not important for me at the moment to see with a good focus about this game and our possibility in this moment.

“We cannot see other things in the future without taking points and good results.

“Now it is important to come back and find a good solution to win our games and see in the future.

“We cannot have any other ambition at the moment other than to win just this game.”

With Saints starting the weekend in 13th place in the Premier League, with struggling champions Leicester just three points behind, Puel knows that climbing the top-flight is essential before they are sucked into a battle in the lower reaches of the table.

“It is very important for us,” he said. “It is important to find the solution and keep the attitude up from the last game because it was very interesting without the clinical and now it is important to find this efficiency and to take points with our fans and all the support of the fans.

“It is important now to find the solution and be a game between two teams in difficulties. It is an important game and I think the maturity and experience of the game will be important without thinking of other games in other competitions.”

Saints are eyeing a return to the top half of the Premier League, after sliding glumly into the lower part of the table after their 1-0 defeat at Burnley last time out.

“For the moment it is the same situation as Leicester, it is to go up and find a solution because we cannot have other ambitions at the moment to see the top part of the table. For the moment we are in the second part and we want to go up into the first part.

“It’s important to stay focused about this game, two teams in difficulty in the Premier League, in the same situation,” he continued. “Leicester, then us, we want a good result, points, and it’s important to have a good concentration about this. It will be a difficult game against a strong team, back on the pitch.

“This is a physical game also, it’s important to have a good analysis, a good concentration, and a good attitude, like the three last games, like Burnley, or Liverpool. It was interesting. the attitude, and it’s important to see this again in the next game against Leicester.”

Best Bets for Leicester at Southampton plus Arsenal and Chelsea at home

Show/hide article…

Dilly-ding, dilly-dong is the wake-up call for punters to get into bed with Leicester for the midday kick-off.

It might mean trotting down the bookies in your jimmy-jams, but every Claudio has a silver lining - Ranieri’s boys are just too big at Southampton .

The Foxes are 10/9 (BetVic) with a half-goal start against a goal-lite Saints side with one eye on midweek at Anfield.

If you can’t get on that, the ‘Leicester or DRAW’ double chance at Evens (Lads) is still worth a thought.

All the no-brainer options have been bled dry at Stamford Bridge and the Emirates, but I spy two bits of sporting longshot value:

Chelsea’s ‘anytime scorer’ sleeper Gary Cahill rates a prod at 9/1 (Fred) and back bloody Burnley to land a ‘no goalscorer’ at 20/1 (Paddy) .

We’re obviously deep into the land of unlikely outcomes with those two - so if you want something sweet at a shortish price have a double of NO ‘both teams to score’ at Chelsea AND Arsenal - it pays 9/5 (BetVic).

Last week: Winners at 12/5 and 7/4
