Basically this article says that he wants to go to Southhamton he like the set up the facilities and the stadium and their ambition to be the next Man City? http://www.telegraaf.nl/telesport/voetbal/vitesse/12471721/__Southampton_mekka_voor_Bttner__.html
Southampton Mecca Büttner From our special reporter Büttner has a contract until the summer of 2013 and was also in the interest of QPR forward, Werder Bremen and Fulham. The club of Martin Jol made ​​a last bid of two million, but that was resolutely brushed aside. Southampton, which was taken over by a billionaire and promoted to the Premier League, seems willing to pay more. Once there is agreement on the transfer fee, is located in southern England a three-year contract finished. 'It would be a very big disappointment when this did not happen, "says Büttner. 'I'm in Southampton and had everything - to the living conditions far - is perfect. The club, the stadium and the reception really surprised me. Beautiful. And Southampton's ambitions. With the new lender they want Manchester City chasing. "
They havent agreed a fee and their chairman is very hard to deal with so its possible they might agree terms but not a fee with the club. At the moment, they are the worst team in the PL, they just spunked £7m on a forward who is no better than what they have while Reading got Pog on a free who is much better.
agreed ..they are certs to go down imho.....their manager looks like an insurance salesman from cheadle!
I agree, Northolt. Coached a few v. talented kids down here over the years and their youth set up is fantastic. A few quid to spend.. I think they'll stay up if they get a few defenders in.
I think Adkins will be gone by Christmas if they are in the bottom five, Cortese is the guy who saw off Pardew when they were doing ok...
Pog looks good business. Some excellent play for Fulham. Must have been that statue that put him off a permanent there
I can see Soton doing well next season and becoming an established top league club again. They have the complete infrastructure in place to become successful.
Not good news for them that players want stupid money to go there and then sign for relegation favourites. They seem to be imploding with people leaving and no one signing.
