    Well, you could say that any player [VVD.?] has a very long contract in order for Saints to cash in eventually.

    If you say, not in Reed's case, then you can't think that highly of him. ;)

    I don't really think that highly of him in fairness. We clearly gave VVD a long contract to get a good price when we have to sell, but that isn't the case with Reed. Which suggests they plan on keeping him.

    Personally if it were up to me I would have either let Reed go or maybe loaned him out.

    Why not.?

    It's all relative. We have no idea how well or relatively poorly Reed is paid. He has security in his contract and Saints have a player who could improve dramatically in the end. Saying that, Saints could possibly make money with a fairly modest bid for him. I would also loan him out. He needs games. If Brighton would like him, that would be excellent. He may get regular games at a high level.

    Manolo announced on Radio 5's TMNC. So I can sort of finally believe it now.

    Although I'm generally a positive chap our track record when it comes to breaking transfer fees is a bit ropey
    Ramirez, flop
    Osvaldo, flop and lunatic
    Boufal, jury out
    Manolo....?

    Ramirez: Cortese pick
    Osvaldo: Cortese pick
    Boufal: looked good in the low amount of game time.

    Boufal looks exciting. Give him time.

    Feel reed needed to go on loan a while ago. He needs to play 90m every week. Wouldn't hurt to drop down a league and toughen up a bit. Well it might hurt but he needs to play.

    I don't reckon the wages will be €100k per week. 3 years would seem short for us too. Would mean we plan to sell him after just 1.5 seasons.
