I was under the belief that they decided possession football was the best approach for the championship due to the amount of games. Playing high pressing football over a 46 game season was not seen as sustainable or the sensible thing to do. As mentioned by Saintmagic, what we are playing...

Rafa Benitez would be my choice, was last at Celta Vigo a club of a similar size. Loads of Premier league experience, plays a more pragmatic style but not so much that the clubs philosophy needs ripping up. Let him settle the ship this season and then move him up to replace Jason Wilcox. We...

Guido Carrillo - 17.5 million http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5238569/Southampton-contact-Monaco-striker-Guido-Carrillo.html Played under manager in Argentina.

Jovetic from Monaco.

If we are not going to play with a press, then Shane Long is pointless.

Get rid of Long and bring in the speed of Walcott and the craft of Jovetic. Chuck in Nicolas Gaitan for **** and giggles. On a serious note, do we think Hoedt was the Van Dick replacement or do we think we will replace him?

Cristian Tello in talks with real betis and is available for 7 million. We have been linked with him numerous times over the the years, would be surprised if we are not looking at him. Both him and Munir have been told by Valverde they can leave. Would love us to sign either.

Twitter rumour Saints close to signing Polish U21 centre back Jan Bednarek. No, I've never heard of him either.

The meeting with Klopp has only as far as I'm aware been reported in the Mirror. Which lets be honest is not the most reliable of sources. But if Saints are looking to have Liverpool investigated as reported by Blackmore, Leitch etc. Then I would imagine something like this must be a...

All this talk of Van Dijk and Bertrand is based on what a few newspapers are assuming what's happening. Bertrand tells friends he wants to leave, Saints want 75million for Van Dijk, Van Dijk chooses Liverpool. All without a single quote from either player, agent or respective clubs. Now I'm...

Emery is staying according to PSG chairman.

He has said before that he would like to manage in England. If Wenger does sign new contract as crazy as it may seem, we may be in with a chance. I think I'm right in saying we made contact with him when he had finished with Mainz, before we hired Koeman. I may be wrong.

Also Eduardo Berizzo to Sevilla to replace Sampaoli.

Spalletti is supposed to be going to Inter, Di Franceso from Sassualo(I know I've spelt that wrong) is replacing him at Roma. Mauricio Pellegrino is suppose to be heading back to Argentina because of family reasons.

Does anyone know if any pubs in town will have the Saints game on today? Thanks in advance.
