What this thread really needs is a rubbish, grainy mobile phone picture of him at a random Hampshire hotel.
It is up to Tadic: "Southampton is a fine club" - http://www.twentefans.nl/nieuws/12971/bal-ligt-bij-tadic-southampton-is-een-mooie-club-.html TRANSLATION "The transfer of Dusan Tadic seems only a matter of time. According to various domestic and foreign media Southampton, FC Twente and reached an agreement on a transfer fee of around twelve million. The ball is now in Tadic's court, Seville have now also fallen in the battle for the creative left leg. The Serb would however have ears to Southampton, which sees in him the successor to the recently departed Adam Lallana. "A nice club with a good coach," Tadic responds in conversation with TC Tubantia. A delegation of Southampton are in the Netherlands this week would be to beat. Two birds with one stone People will want to complete the transfer of Graziano Pelle. Saints Feyenoord ask ten million euros for the Italian who would like to work. Himself desperately back under Ronald Koeman Tadic also sees a collaboration with the Dutch oefenmeester apparently down, so the transition is supposedly done deal shortly."
That's what I call proper material for a transfer thread. Seville have given up on his creative left leg, now we only have to buy his right leg. And Pelle wants to work...always a good start. I never knew we had an oefenmeester, but probably necessary in the modern game.
Trouble is Fran even if we bought his right leg as well the blighter is likely to keep falling over....

It's Saints. It always takes a while. We need two more clubs to come in and bid before we are really at likely
And a player has to throw a complete wobbler when he thinks his life long dream move to Saints (and the dosh) is being denied.
Thanks CBK, I think only last minute interest from Everton is missing and then all the boxes for a successful transfer are ticked. I will let the forensics of the photograph play out over the next few pages. Personally that looks like an Eastleigh Wheelie bin to me
