Excellent.....first proper rumour, copied from Facebook...



...."Dont know what to make of it, but saw young barcelona midfielder Carles Alena at soton airport (where i work) about half 4 this afternoon, could it be one coming in?"


Excellent....now the window is open, now all we need is dodgy photos and we are up and running.

He's had a pretty tough year mentally, so it's encouraging to hear. Sadly, I don't think there's a way back here for him with our "fans" but I do hope he can get a fresh start somewhere.

I’ve got a weird feeling he might get loaned out to Norwich. He’s been there before, Krul isn’t setting the world alight by any means and they have a chance for an automatic promotion spot. Just a whim.

Googles Carles Alena. First article says he wants to win the champions league 2 days after he is at Southampton Airport. Brilliant!

Proper FM legend. Getting back to what made us great before...we had such an uncanny tendency to target FM superkiddies for a while that I wondered if the black box was on someone's Steam account.

Unfortunately for them, it's the one area which they continue get wrong. That's a lot of money for an unproven youngster, who has barely started a competitive match. They've already badly overpaid Liverpool in the recent past for Ibe and Brad Smith.

They look to be doing ok .

Wonder why they shelved plans for the new stadium ?

Actually I take that back. It's one of two areas which they continue to get the wrong. The other being constantly not caring about the cup competitions, despite being stuck in mid-table with no realistic likelihood of getting relegated nor qualifying for Europe.

2-0 at home to Brighton at the moment, with a second XI.

(Wilson not even on the bench. Wonder if they're ensuring he doesn't get cup-tied...)

Irrelevant if they spend it badly. Of course they have money to spend, they're a PL club.

As you say, why on they not spending it on a new stadium? I've said it before, at the moment when they get relegated in the future they'll have nothing to show for their time in the top flight other than memories. No (decent) stadium. No (decent) youth academy. No trophies.

By and large their main players are still those that came up with them. Even the three main guys who they have added, in Ake, Brooks and King, the latter two were pretty cheap.
