    Ugly Inside talking about Kostic (already mentioned above). They are making a real stretch at the end: FDB knows Kostic, we have not been linked with Kostic before, therefore FDB is our next manager. Not sure we would risk signing a player (still with years on his contract, therefore quite expensive) without landing the manager first. Most likely scenario is that Liverpool are interested and want us to test him first #sarcasmmode

    Especially when Gervinho left Roma to join Chinese club side Hebei China Fortune for €18m in March <whistle>

    Stuttgart have just been relegated to the second division in Germany though, so could get him for around £10 million. Redmond and Kostic seems to indicate the next manager playing our preferred 4-3-3 formation, so could well be Garcia... #clutchingtightlyatstraws

    I follow Lara Earls for sheer comedy value. If that account is to be believed then Arsene Wenger has had a fist fight with the entire starting eleven haha. Its like they spin a wheel for a player, spin it again for a club, then spin it again for a random sub-plot. Opening of war chests, Carragher saying players should leave their clubs, players complaining about not getting a birthday cake and the old training ground punch-ups haha

    Today's prize one is "Luis Suarez looks to force Tottenham move..."

    Is it like The Onion or something?

    Saints losing players is just a familiar story that gives them copy....zeitgeist. And they don't have to worry about pissing off too many readers as most will be United/Chelsea/Arsenal supporters. Don't think its personal really.

    I'd be happy enough with Redmond as another attacking option in the squad.

    I quite like it - keeps up the narrative of "little Southampton" whist we get on with it - keeps us "under the radar" so to speak.

    Leicester City outbid Spurs for Victor Wanyama. Sources close to the club say they are confident the £13.5M deal will go through in the next 48hrs.

    (I'm just making this up so it gets printed in the mirror tomorrow & increases the chances of a bidding war for him)

    Well I am. £11M is not great & 20% of that is a Scottish donation. It would suit us for someone else to show an interest so Levy doesn't get another snip from Saints.
    So get bothered.

    11m is way too low. We wouldn't sell for that little.
