    Todays injury, I would suggest, will put an end to any summer transfer for poor Tino

    He was never leaving this summer anyway. And he could be missing a large chunk of next season as well.

    It might have also just made Valery that little bit more likely to stay

    I never want to see Valery at RB again though!

    Please let's not make McCarthy our number 1 again. :(

    It sounds like Forster made his mind up some time ago so not really in the clubs hands there.

    But yeah we should definitely be looking for a No 1, not an up and coming keeper.

    I'm fine with Fraser leaving but we need a new number 1 not a "young number 2".

    Im glad Fraser had a chance to come back and show the fans how good he could be and put himself in the shop window effectively.

    However, outstanding as he has been in a few recent games, the Brighton game showed he’s just not good enough.

    There will be sentimental fans, but of a 5 year contract on upwards of £75k a week, he’s played well for I would say 20% of that time.

    For me, despite what’s happened recently, his time is up, as is Macca’s…. It’s time for us to put this position as the main priority for once-something we haven’t done for a long time.

    The GK scenario is a bit of a balls up. MaC or FF? New deal or no deal? Whichever way you look it’s not a good deal for Saints. Both are okish but very limited. FF has been great recently but even if he signs & stays I have a feeling it’ll not be the progress we need / desire. Either will demand to be one of our highest earners. Ah fcuk it, sign them both for another 3 yrs each & that’s all sorted & we can then concentrate on more important matters.

    Yeah I greatly appreciate Forster’s recent form, but let’s be honest it is his first positive contribution for the club in about 4 years, I am not too bothered about his decision to leave.

    Both Forster and McCarthy would be acceptable back ups and temporary first choices for our current situation, but longer term there absolutely needs to be a new first choice keeper. It’s not as if there is a dearth of promising keepers about either.

    Came across this site looking for Saints transfer news. https://www.footballtransferleague.co.uk/clubs/southampton Looks interesting, I'll have a good look tomorrow it's Kings day here in the Netherlands bonkers street parties everywhere. There will be beer.

    Read his club history on wikipedia. It sounds super dodgy / confusing. Not sure it is an arrangement we'd want to wade into.

    I remember being in attendance for Kings day (though I remember it as Queens!) in Utrecht around 97! I may have been under the influence somewhat!

    I assume he is part owned by multiple parties then? Pretty common in South America
