    but at the same time we're no longer in a position to sign three headline players each season.

    we now need to sign three to five senior footballers to maintain our numbers and then maybe add one or two to try and improve.

    evolution is off the table this season.

    By his own admission he struggled adapting to English football. I remember he wasn't great anyway.

    Completely agree with you. I was mainly talking about how we are not a club who relied solely on young players before, and won't be a club who solely relies on buying in in the future, and that spending lots of our lovely new money isn't going to change the way we operate long term. For me, we were 3 or 4 short last year, so we really need 8 or 9 players to come in (although I suspect one or two those may be from the academy).

    "He is a Southampton player, he will be a Southampton player"

    I like it.

    A "no comment" at this stage is better than say the depth he went into talking about Lovren's situation. I trust that he'll be working on keeping Morgan.

    It wasn't really a no comment. He said he spoke to him, there have been no bids, he is a Saints player, and will still be a Saints player. I hope I don't look back on here in a months time when he has gone to Arsenal/Spurs!

    Yep. Shame he turned out to be a dick with a good touch.

    Er no! Could clearly see the kid had quality on the ball.

    It's a bit like the **** Jayrod got in the first few months of his first season on here. I clearly remember defending him and how good a player he would be for us.

    Does anyone remember when Morgan first arrived and everyone thought he was s**t? How times change ey!

    __________________________-

    No, but remember thinking it was strange to be spending £1.2M on a player when we were only just able to pay the water/electric bills.

    If Morgan stays we are only a 3/4 more signings away from a top squad. A keeper CB(?2) and another striker.
