Id never heard of hoijberg until we got him.
This is a lad with a plan....didn't even try to pretend that he wanted to play for Saints since childhood. Intimated that he had seen players come here and move on right at the beginning. However, has its upside...we could get players choosing to come here and play well for a couple of years to further their careers and do us some good at the same time.
 
Well Stanciu would be in Manchester? Though doesn't mean that his agent isn't in London? Or could it be for another player?
 
Well an ITK on saintsweb who got the green light from guan as it were said 2 signings very imminent, with one or a practically done. I reckon it's Stanciu.

If he leaves in a couple of years time for a big club then i would not have a problem with that as he has been upfront and honest so far

A bit like Mane then?

From memory as a quick google search only brings up news about his transfer to Liverpool he said that he was glad to get to the PL and play here as it meant he could move to a big club in a couple of years if he performs.
 
Hey, I'm a fan of VW so don't bite my head off but we lost him last year for 14 games (I believe) purely through suspension - not sure on injuries? I bet someone has some analysis with & w/o? Anyone? I'd certainly like to see.
This is from memory so no doubt I'll be corrected but this very stat was posted on SSN. We won 67% without him compared to 40ish% with him. I was most surprised.

EDIT: And that surprise wasn't just because 67 and 40 make over 100 :-)
 
Southampton are preparing to make a club-record €25m bid for Juventusstriker Simone Zaza, according to Italian publication Gazzetta.

The report says that Juventus are willing to let go of Zaza, but only if a worthy offer were to come in for him. Whether or not Juventus deem €25m to be enough, remains to be seen. If the deal does go through, Zaza would be the club’s record signing.
