    Named in preliminary squad to face Spain and Turkey - returns to the senior team set-up for the first time since his last appearance against Romania in October 2012.

    I'm happy if we sign him. £4m could be a real steal.

    Although I think he hasn't ripped up trees for us yet, I like what I have seen. 4m would be a good deal. He has obvious pace and skill and I thought he was very good against United and Newcastle.... now I'd like to see him being a little more direct and confident by running at people. The way he went past the United full back at Old Trafford on one occasion was very exciting.

    I must say I rather like the cut of his jib. Let's hope he performs well for the Netherlands again. I'd like us to sign him.

    Thought he was one of our better players v Palace (FA Cup).

    Just goes to prove, if you play for a big club you have a chance of being picked for International duty?

    Good. Sign him. Sends good message; if you play for Southampton your potential will be realised and good things will happen.

    Just read that with the current exchange rate Elia's price will convert from 5.5 million Euros to £3.9 million....even better.

    I believe one or two articles were saying as such. Koeman said it was not true we were going to make him a permanent signing. So that's all rubbished.
