    Twitter has gone frigging mad, one of the most talked about topics worldwide. I hope it all gets sorted soon now, love to welcome Jay Rod on board.

    Burnley fans are generally fine with Rodriguez moving to Saints, should it go through. They think 7 mill is a good deal and that they don't hate him for joining a PL club.

    Maybe not everyone reads every thread? This news deserves its own thread I think. Can't believe it's trending worldwide on Twitter.

    I think when he officially signs deserves its own thread - not before.

    I was about to say the same thing on the Twitter front. Southampton seem to be getting the public recognition they deserve!

    If it deserves an article on the BBC website, I'm sure it's allowed a thread on here.

    Nigel and Cortese are clever men.

    They wouldn't spend £7m if it left them with just £5m or so to spend on 3 or 4 other positions. Jay will be worth £7m easily in time. Considering Huddersfield wanted similar for Rhodes who is unproven at Champ level, and seems to just be a finisher to me (whereas Jay is an all-round player). Hooper isn't going to happen any time soon so makes sense to swoop for Jay. When you consider Sunderland paid £12m for Wickham, who was less proven than Jay, I think it is a good deal.

    Adkins said we would spend to improve, and Schneiderlin said that Cortese was aiming for Top Ten in that French news article.

    I had read somewhere the budget was around £30m anyway, no need to panic.

    Years ago didn't Cortese once say "when we get to the Premier League we will get the chequebook out" ?

    Living up to his promise yet again.

    Can imagine Sharp: When I said we needed players, I didn't mean strikers!

    Most non-minor transfers will trend on Twitter and most of those tweeting about it to cause it to Trend will be the many sports journalists/magazines/websites/fan sites/etc that are on Twitter.

    He also said we wouldn't spend money we didn't have, so clearly there is a fair surplus that we can delve into should we need to...
