    Not sure if this has been posted

    Brendan Rodgers has said he's not interested in Butland or Ince.

    Didn't that Italian journalist guy say that if Southampton offered 10 million Euros, the chairman would bring Astori to Southampton on his lap?

    I think if the club really want Astori, they have a really good chance of getting him. From what I can tell, Saints can outbid the Italian clubs on the transfer fee, and outpay them in wages for the player. I'm more worried about some mystery non-serie A teams coming in with offers.

    Becchio? He's all right, but I would be surprised if we were after him.

    I know Matt very well, he's 17 and used to go to my secondary and primary schooL Was a year below me and was always one of the best players along wth Jake Flannigan (plays for the u18's). Matt is technically quality, both footed but not the fastest. Jake is so fast and plays midfield.

    Let's hope he has a video player...might be safer to provide a dvd.

    It wouldn't surprise me if it was Saints that are in talks as Adkins did say that they have already had talks at the club regarding who they want to try and get in. Either way being linked with Forren and Astori is encouraging.

    I think he meant discussions amongst the club staff about who to target.

    I haven't actually seen any credible links to Forren, just the fact he is in talks with a premier league club. No indication it is us.

    Adkins has said he only wants to sign players who will improve the squad.

    "Doesn't seem to be anything in Forren to #SaintsFC talk. There is some centre-back news, though. Aaron Martin recalled from #CPFC loan."

    And here's the confirmation...



    OfficialSaints on Twitter:


    "Aaron Martin has today returned to Saints after it was mutually agreed to end the defender's loan spell at @Official_CPFC. #saintsfc"

    Presumably Palace didn't want to extend it rather than us feeling we must have him back.

    Nah, Martin will go back out on loan again I'd imagine, it's just to get him game time again.

    He wasn't playing, so better for all parties that he comes back really.

    Great to have Martin back. He's quick, pacey and can run very fast.

    Didn't think of it like that. Good point. Can we get to recalling Seaborne?
