    Isn't this just all part of the press transfer circus? Jose and Jose are both Portuguese that's enough for the press.
    I agree with you about Everton and I can't see ManU seeing him as the answer to their problems at CB. (Pepe might be)
    He's too old, too cheap and too Saints, he wouldn't be captain and if as you say he isn't starting every game why are they buying him?
    I think we have been spooked by previous exit incidents <monster> <yikes>

    If you asked me list all Saints players at the start of pre season on how likely they were to leave, Jose would of been pretty near the bottom. (In my opinion)

    Keeping him as the top earner isn't spin, it shows we know he is important to us.
    We want to keep him not avoid looking bad for losing him.
    He would only be released if we thought it was in our interests and that would cost a lot more than £9m.

    Anyway if he tried to leave he would have to be released from the grip of Fran & Mrs S's cold dead hands <double>

    New contract or not, I'd be very very dissapointed in Fonte if he pushed for and went to Everton. Manchester United is a little different.

    Suspect this is just agent pushing for a pay rise.

    Wasn't he already pretty much top earner though? That's why he signed a new deal in October 2015. So that would imply someone who has joined/signed a new deal recently is earning more. Or maybe it's that reason combined with the interest from Everton/Man Utd.

    We wouldn't need to give him a new contract to show how much we love him as he signed a big extension recently, unless he has a clause where he gets a new deal that automatically matches highest earner like in football manager.

    Oh I see it all now. Liverpool bought him off us to do us a favour. Of course, how silly of me. ;)

    Agreed. Not sure they will be any stronger when they return to the PL though.

    Its been said about a lot of relegated teams, but rarely happens. if Rafa can sort out their heads they should have the quality. If Hull get more than 20 points it would surprise me

    Apparently Tuchel was horrified by his attitude at Dortmund and couldn't wait to shift him back to Manchester
