Summer 2014 Transfer rumour thread

Rather have Bamford than Ings.

 

Are you high?

 

No just think he's going to be really top draw. Natural poacher whiuch weve not really had since Steve Moran.

 

Saints boss Mauricio Pochettino has joined a host of Premier League rivals in monitoring the form of Rotherham youngster Danny Rowe.

Worth mentioning if Cardiff go down David Marshall as backup/challenge Boruc for GK?

 

Presumably for Spurs

 

Very good idea! Changed your post slightly!

 

Bamford looks really good! Scored 4 screamers against us for forest!

 

A player just proven at MK Dons...?

Petrescu linked to Saints job.

 

I vs for me, he ran our defence ragged in the FA Cup game at SMS

 

Great. We'd have someone with a name like a TV show

 

Good beer, Dark Lord?

 

Morgan Schneiderlin hopes Southampton will keep key men at the club this summer, helping to underline their ambition.
The French midfielder feels the Saints are heading into a crucial stage of their development, and is looking for them to emerge on the other side ready to kick on.
Speculation has already started to build ahead of the re-opening of the transfer window, with leading lights at St Mary's reported to be drawing admiring glances from afar.Manager Mauricio Pochettino has also seen his future called into question, with Tottenham Hotspur said to be keen, but Schneiderlin is convinced that a successful group can be kept together if every effort is made to show that good times lie ahead on the south coast.
On a potentially pivotal summer for the Saints board, he said in The Echo: "It's important for the club, because it's going to show the direction they want to take."(The direction) they want to take with the gaffer first, because there's many players who want to play for the gaffer.
"There's a lot of things that they have to do and then we'll see.
"Of course, we don't know what's going to happen this summer, but Southampton can get a step forward, and that's the main thing.
"The fans want it, the players want it, so we're just going to see.
"We can't do anything, because we're (in the) background. We're just going to wait and see what they're going to do.
"But, of course, we want, I want, to be part of a team that is playing for the top five or top six places, and if they can't do this then many players are going to be disappointed."

 

I'm going to suggest YOU for the Saints job, Beefy. There..! You've been linked. I bet you've done all those FM things, so you're well qualified.

 

I've won the league and Champions League with Saints, therefore I should be heavily linked.

 

I'm linking you then, Tom. Beefy hasn't even bothered to arrange a Press conference. Mind you, he may prefer Spurs. In fact, it's obvious he's talking to Spurs because he hasn't denied it.

 

Southampton are interested in signing Athletic Bilbao’s promising young defender Aymeric Laporte as they look to add to their defensive options in the coming transfer window.Saints manager Mauricio Pochettino is a keen admirer of the 19-year-old centre-back whose eye-catching performances for the Basque club have earned the interest of FC Barcelona.

 

I'm personally looking for Boruc to be next season's backup, with a new No.1 coming up.

Him and Fonte are the two I'm wanting us to improve on come next season. (I also though want us to somehow improve our main striker, but without sacrificing Rickie from the XI. Not sure it's going to be possible though...)

 

Yes please.
