    Is Jos a bit of a ledge around the professional footballer world? He seems to be best mates with everyone. :)

    He has also denied it on Twitter in a conversation he had with Jos Hooiveld, they are former teammates.

    Seemed too good to be true and it was sadly.

    Everyone we're linked to anyway! Who else has he played with?

    I wondered why your tweet mysteriously disappeared just after I posted this. Shame really, after a bit of research into the guy, I'd decided he was going to captain us to Champion's League glory in 5 year's time.

    Would be fantastic news if we could secure his services - just the type of player we should be looking for!

    Would never, ever happen. If he joined a team in the second tear of English football at his age, he'd need his head testing.

    Peter Madsen took this guy out too. His contribution to Saints over the years has not been positive

    He's in talks with PSV - In other words the chances of us getting him are severely slim <laugh>

    Good luck to him though, looks a very very good player.

    The only thing I do find interesting is that Saints are big enough to feature in foreign gossip columns. I understand in England, where we are perceived as being well off and in the market, that we get linked to all and sundry, but why these foreign papers? Our profile must be reasonably high on the continent.

    Yes, it's funny how a club who no-one's ever heard of (according to the Celtic fans) get so much attention isn't it?

    It will be interesting to see if NA speaks about incoming transfers again, whether he still mentions that we are in the market for a striker as he said previously (Before Falque loan). If we have decided against the fee for Hooper, whether we will make do, or move on to another target. I personally would not be surprised if it was Hooper or nobody, why would we make do for second best?
    Although if rumors are to be believe Jos was about 4th choice...so who knows

    Also the Lee transfer is taking far too long for my liking! ATM it doesn't even look as if he is in the country, so I cannot see him featuring at all on Monday now :(

    Adkins said on Sky League programme that Lee might be available for the Millwall game.

    I think we're still trying, but as the league leaders we can't afford to get stuck with a player who won't cut it if we get promoted. More likely to get a loanee now.

    Am I being to optimistic in saying we should try and get Lukaku on loan? He&#8217;s strong, fast, great in the air and desperate for 1st team football.

    Well I wouldn't complain if we got him! Think that would be too much to hope for though...

    Don't think he would fit in, plus he is on mega high wages...

    He has also already played for two different teams already this season, which is the maximum you're allowed.
