No, that is subclause 3. Subclause 2 is that Saints will not buy players just to excite the fans. Les has already said so about a million times in the last month [that may be a slight exaggeration on the number of times].
Be interesting to see how many are hits and how many fall in the category of team being better than sum of parts and suiting the system etc.
And how they cope afterwards. Sold £142m and spent £43m so far. Tielemans and Kongolo only notable arrivals.
Whatever happened with that supposed "ITK" saying we were in for a defender from a Team beginning with A?
Look at it this way....if I knew something, I wouldn't faff about...I'd tell you. And if it was a proper secret, I wouldn't tell you at all. So have no time for mysterious hints....they are just attention seeking (except Beefy, 'cos I believe in Beefy).
I believe in Beefy too. I've had enough disappointments in life regarding Santa, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny so I'm going to cling on childishly to my belief that Beefy is real
How would you feel if you were a supporter of Monaco? The asset stripping by clubs with deep pockets makes ours look like peanuts in comparison. However, I suspect they will somehow find players who are just as good which makes me think that SFC could do far worse than recruit Monaco's talent spotter when he becomes available.
Sky sources understand Swansea have rejected Everton's improved bid for Gylfi Sigurdsson. Paul Clement's side want £50m for the Iceland international. We understand Everton's rejected offer was worth £40m plus £5m in add-ons.
