    Nigel said post-match today that Maya Yoshida will not be joining us.

    Damn. Well I definitely don't want Scott Dann. He made an awful error today.

    Were fans only excited about Yoshida because he scored an overhead kick?

    Probably would prefer Cana-Biyik anyway. More proven, I think.

    Hoping for 2 centre-backs. Maybe Kana-Biyik and a one that's in the Premier League. Get the Ramirez thing sorted and maybe another striker/winger.

    I wouldn't put anything past the majority of Saints fans.

    It's clear what we need, if Nigel wants to play this formation, then it's 2 wingers and 2 centre backs

    After today's game, particularly Wigan's 2nd goal, we better get a clue bloody quickly.

    To be fair, it's not really Fonte's fault he was tripped over by Arouna Kunt.

    This is my take on it (From saints web)

    I think Nixon is looking for a few bites from that. I imagine we have a list of CB's that we deem are good enough and a high enough quality to improve us - but it's a case of making the call as to which one to go for. Tricky one, will probably come down to who is the cheapest!

    I'd imagine all targets have been sounded out as to their wage demands as well (via their agents) and the clubs have been asked how much they'd cost, so we won't be going into it as blind as Nixon is suggesting. We know what they'd cost, and how much they'd ask for - so it's just a case of making the call as to which one.

    We will have potential targets. Just need to offer a bit more and get the deals done now! Time is running out, Cortese needs to cough up a bit more.

    Certainly will be.

    2 x CBs, 1 x LB and an attacking player is what Adkins has said we needed, oh and throw in a cup tie away at Stevenage

    According to NA it is going to be a busy week. I reckon Saints will need and will bring in at least three players
