I hope we look at signing Pione Sisto, he can play on the wing or behind the striker and he's only 19. The owner of his club, FC Midtjylland has stated he would refuse any offer below £5m for him but their fans (3 I've seen commenting on a forum) don't think it'll take much more than that and are worried he will be gone in January. If we spent £12m or so on Mane then £8-10m for Sisto, in my opinion, would be a worthwhile investment.

Obligatory Youtube clip (make sure you mute)

Of course, we won't sign him, but I can dream, right?

Speak of the devil... fancy that!

Haha - can imagine the man who turned down playing for Man U for a fatter pay packet in the Turkish league dropping his salary for a shot at Saints glory.
The Fail indeed.

I suppose if he turned United down once, he could have an issue with them? It looks like he needs a quick route into the Premier, to resurrect a career that isn't working in Turkey? We have a good record of doing that kind of thing, but only with players that are willing to accept our way of doing things. His wage demands may be a stumbling block too, it would be annoying if we saved his career only for him to run to the highest bidder when it suits him. It is good that we can bring some talented players in, but they need to be ones with the right attitude about why they are coming here? Plenty of ifs and buts to pontificate over.

He does indeed have an issue with them - they don't pay enough compared to the higher bidder!
Only a mercenary goes to Galatasaray at the peak of his career.
 
If the neggies are to be believed we need eleven new signings at least, who would you chose to bring in and who would be best to get rid of?
 
I'm generally dead against getting older players in on the way down but think Sneijder would be unbelievable. Clever, great vision and excellent from set pieces. Would be a very good addition I think - not sure his wages would work here though?
 
Please buy a winger. Either: Memphis Depay (PSV) or Nathan Redmond (Norwich)

And maybe a centre midfielder, a big bulky, long term leader to spice up competition.
