    I think it would be rather a good idea to have a thread just for having a good old moan. I might post more often then.

    Kicker in Germany reporting that Saints are signing Pierre-Emile Højbjerg from Bayern Munich for €15m.

    Vic replacement I'd imagine? Can't say I've ever heard of him. Anyone seen him play?

    Not a direct answer to your quote, but on the Cedric subject. I don't think it's lack of talent, but more positional awareness/concentration.

    In theory this can be coached and quickly improved upon

    It is only the mane sell that annoyed me. If we had sold Wanyama and pelle to date I would be fine with that and I understand the sale of both. I suspect most fans would generally be relaxed over that too. Mane is a major player who was under contract for the foreseeable future - selling him was quite a shock and for me at least was a negative decision. Then selling pelle straight after compounds it as two thirds of last seasons forward line has disappeared.

    I've heard of him briefly, Played a few times for Bayern. Seems to be Solid yet unspectacular. But if he is in the Bayern squad he must be pretty good.

    Not a Vic replacement. More a Morgan type player. Been out on loan for the past two seasons. Liverpool reputedly interested too, so that makes me really want to get him.

    Just spoke to my mate in Germany - apparently Højberg is very much a young Morgan style player. Thinks he's an excellent talent. Would be excited by this one.

    Career stalled a bit lat year, didn't set the world alight at as Schalke but very highly regarded. When you have Vidal, Alonso, Thiago, Rode and now Renato Sanches (and Alaba sometimes) ahead of you, its probably time to go

    Some transfer gossip, that's more like it.

    Just watched his YouTube highlights. Definitely more Morgan style than VW. Looks like he has quick feet with a turn of pace to get away from CM, and has a pass in him.

    I know You Tube can be deceiving, but looks our kind of signing.

    Young but has been bought up at Bayern. Ok Les, get it sorted.

    Looking at his YouTube videos, and just that, he looks more like a Steven Davis type player, linking the play and getting forward when needed.

    Or maybe a Morgan replacement? I don't know. But he looks good. Never heard of him before but I want him now.

    Were you genuinely surprised by the sale of Mane?
    For me, Wanyama was never in question and Mane was always pretty likely to leave this summer.

    Annoying person to search for on Twitter as you end up getting loads of stuff about some basketball player called Fred Hoiberg. Still, that should confuse the Liverpool "scouts".
