I assume a mountainous saints fan is having a meltdown because we are signing players before pre-season over on fiverweb?

Blimey, this has come straight out of left field. Does this mean McCarthy is stalling on a new deal and we are cashing in or is Fraser off?

Either way a £15m fee, for a club of our stature, suggests first choice not second.

Blimey.

bye Dusan, you will be missed, not fondly, but missed nonetheless…

I must say how refreshing I find it not selling to a Premier League rival. When he was good he was REALLY GOOD. When he was wank he was proper wank. More often than not you had to check he was actually on the pitch. But he gave us some times so I wish him well. Good luck and all the best Dusan.

Fuck sake, it’s all going at Southampton this summer isn’t it, maybe they’ve learnt from the last couple of seasons of malaise…

I guess that kind of answers my question above about McCarthy. Presumably the big lump (Forster) will be moved on if our interest in the City lad in anything more than paper bullshit.

P.S - @BTripz have we somehow managed to privatise this thread? :thinking:

Since I wielded my new found mod powers people are scared to post here. Don’t be people, I have learnt my lesson, it won’t happen again

Fiverweb is amazing.
Ranting that we need to sign a winger as well as Elyounoussi because we are selling Tadic.
Despite the fact that we still have Boufal, Redmond and Sims on our books at the moment…

(And of course JWP and (at the moment) Sam McQueen

In fairness… we may still have Redmond but he is crap.

To play devil’s advocate for a second… the logic is that we were trying to sign Promes in January which signals that we identified we needed that profile of player (a pacy goal scoring winger). So the question remains, is this new mush a Tadic or Promes type player? Either way you would expect that another attacking wide player would be targeted, if for no other reason than to improve upon what we already have (Redmond).

Furthermore, I think Boufal will still leave for France.

Unless of course that Armstrong is somehow seen as a Tadic type and not a Davis? :man_facepalming:

FUCK KNOWS!!! ARGHHHHHHHHH I’m going over to SaintsWeb to shout at people!!! :rage:

Clasie wants to go home

Hasn’t featured much. Should we be worried that our players think the Eredivisie is a better career option than us?
