    I'd give him a medal just for being one of the best Captains and CB in the club's history.

    Rickie, Adam and now Jose have left but we could easily not be a PL team without them, they are all great Saints, that's just my opinion.
    I only care about what a player gives to us on the pitch all the rest of it is just BS.

    So about 42k p/w, which is basically a starter contract in the PL these days.

    So let Sunderland offer £50k. If he goes there as a result, we've had a lucky escape, and I'd rather take my chances with Jay and Shane.

    Unless you play for Hull or Burnley I guess.

    Wasn't there a recent table showing which teams paid the moat in a salary league table?

    According to Di Marzio, they haven't even contacted Napoli yet, it is just us.

    In fairness they are trying to get the highest price for their player. Which club wouldn't want that?

    Like when some club offers a derisory £35M for VVD in the summer, and Les, Ralph and Gareth nearly choke with laughter before spluttering out 'No Sale'. Honestly, I don't think they should even bat an eyelid for less than £70M.

    Understandably, but they don't even want to keep him,...

    True but it still makes sense for them to try and get as much as possible. I know of it was saints I'd want them to do whatever it takes to maximise price.

    Yeah, his price just goes up and up. I shouldn't think a club in world football won't want him in the summer. A combination of our healthy financial state, intense demand for the player and 4 years remaining on his contract it means the power is firmly in our hands.

    My personal view would be to say to VVD that we want one more season out of you, then you can go to the club of your choice providing they pay £60m.

    And I think he's perfectly happy to stay for at least another season, going by the noises he makes. It's clear he's extremely proud to be team captain.

    And then he left, of his own volition, and now plays for West Ham...he deserves nothing more from Saints
