    Transfer Rumours January 2021 Transfer Rumours

    We were linked with Mohamed Simakan around a year ago when we were looking for a right back. He fitted the bill as a young player with potential. He is also a good centre back too. I believe he would be a great addition, maybe not for January but come the summer he would be perfect to fill...

    Transfer Rumours January 2020 transfer window

    I don't think Matt Crocker is going to have anything to do with transfer business, he's nothing to do with the first team. He is being brought in for the academy only, for synergy and a pathway between all age groups. We are bringing in someone for transfers in the summer. The person we have...

    Transfer Rumours Confirmed: Saints sign Kyle Walker-Peters Permanently!

    Looks like Clyne. His attributes must suit our front foot defending rather than Jose and his negative sitting back defending. Pochettino rated him, Ralph must rate him and feel that he can fill positions we lack depth. He has played at left back too if memory serves so he can cover both...

    Saint Joakim!

    I saw a figure of 11m Euros mentioned as a release clause in his contract a couple of weeks ago. Which would be very good business indeed.

    Match Day Thread Southampton v Derby County FA Cup Round 3 Replay Wednesday 16th January 7:45pm

    I gave him the benefit of the doubt against man city, it was his debut after all and he's a young lad. But am I the only one who dosen't rate Ramsey one bit. He's a complete liability and that's being kind. Dosen't run, can't mark, can't tackle, poor positionally. If he never plays again for...

    Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours - Summer 2018

    I'd like to see us get hold of Mohamed Elyounoussi and Saman Ghoddos who we had apparent interest in January to buy/keeping tabs on. Put Promes in too and that's our forward positions sorted. Defenders I rate Schindler from Huddersfield and wouldn't mind one of Mawson/Evans/C.Dawson either. It...

    Transfer Rumours Saints Summer 2017 Transfer Rumour Thread

    As Crystal Palace seem interested too...Would Oliver Burke be any good as our AM/Winger. Saints were keeping tabs on him last year when he was at Nottingham Forrest and we're signing Hoedt who was another player we have been keeping tabs on for over a year now. (ever since Fonte returned from...

    The Virgil Van Dijk Stays at Southampton Thread

    Like Saints beating Inter Milan 2-1 in Europe last year. Inter Milan – yes, that Inter Milan – came to St Mary’s, and left empty-handed. In fact, it was even more impressive than that. The three-time European champions came to St Mary’s and spent most of the game with 10 men planted behind the...

    Match Day Thread Southampton v Swansea - Saturday 12/08/2017 3pm

    Why do we get by far the most inept premier league referee. Surely someone else could of had him first. I shudder every time I see him down for one of our games. Truly ****ing awful!!!!!

    Forster Injury

    Great news I know. I'm hearing that Fraser has injured his arm in England training. It seems to have been missed with all the transfer activity on sky sports.

    Saint Sofiane!

    It was Soccer, sorry Fats.

    Saint Sofiane!

    Joe Prince-Wright lives in America. He's actually from Southampton and supports Saints. I went to school with the lad. He got a scholarship to go to the US when we were at college to play football, then he got a bad injury and had to retire. He went into journalism and is doing alright for...

    Saint Nicolae!

    I'm pretty sure that he would be available for another team in the group stages of the Europa League. I'm sure there was a similar thing with Van Dijk last year. He would have been eligible for us in the group stages even though he played in CL qualifiers for Celtic. Unfortunately we never made...

    Ex-Manager Thread

    I haven't posted on here for ages but thought I should just add my thoughts to the debate. I think Ronald leaving is a bit of ambition and money. He has ambition to break into the champions league, win a cup maybe a league. I think he feels that to do that consistently you need to spend money...

    Match Day Thread FC Midtjylland V Saints. Europa League Play Off 2nd Leg 27/08/15 ko 19:45

    Right I've let the dust settle a bit before posting and didn't see the match due to not paying OTT for BT Sport (quite glad now) listened to Radio Solent instead. There seems to be a load of reasons why we are performing as badly as we are the main one I think is confidence. How do they regain...
