    According to a recent report from Turkish news outlet Fotospor, Galatasaray have made an approach to sign Southampton midfielder Jordy Clasie this summer..........
    The report in Turkey claims that Galatasaray have moved on to Clasie after their attempts to sign Lucas Leiva from Liverpool fell through, with the Saints midfielder another one on the list for the Turkish giants.
    Clasie only signed for Saints last summer but was very much one from Ronald Koeman, given his time and tutelage at Feyenoord.
    However, a surprising part of the report claims that Galatasaray are ready to make a bid of just £3 million to try and prize Clasie away from Southampton.

    Isn't true, we aren't after a striker either.

    I'm reasonably happy too if they stay chirpy and fit, but can see disaster looming half way through a tough season. And remember I am a happy clapper.

    I didn't think for a second that it was true! I mean, I doubt we'd be looking to sell anyway, but £3m is laughable. I'd be happier if we got a stiker in, but it sounds like we're after an attacking midfielder or two, so I'm content with that.

    I like Clasie. I thought we missed him on Sunday. I wouldn't mind a midfield three of Romeu - Hojbjerg & Clasie - with Tadic just in front.

    That would mean Puel dropping the diamond. Which I would like.

    Dropping our best player seems harsh? (Davis)

    Interesting. You think Davis is the best player in the squad?

    I really do, he has an intelligence and skill that nobody else in the squad can get near.

    Ye, I'll give you that.

    It is very hard to pick a stand out best Saints player. Forster is a top class goalie, Bertrand, VVD and Fonte are excellent defenders, Davis is very reliable (except last week), Tadic makes goals, Long runs really fast... How do you choose a best player?

    Very soon we may be able to say it is Hojbjerg!

    Van Dijk is our best player. Early days but Hoijberg looks like he will be close behind him.

    I like Hojberg's attitude on the pitch....you can see him thinking and organising. Admirable in one so young,
