Saints transfer rumour thread

[Puck]

Do we still try and announce signings at whatever time it is that's most awkward for the Echo?

 

[Dan]

Here's a new rumour in:

Gary Linton ‏@AlbaEspana
Rumour is, ex Espanyol manager, Mauricio Pochettino to take over at Southampton, well that would be interesting.

Dermot Corrigan ‏@dermotmcorrigan
Some quality rumours around this morn: Catalan TV3 said last nigh ex-Espanyol boss Pochettino could take over at Southampton soon as today

Right, sounds likely!

 

[holierthanthou]

Maybe saving it for a double signing? Wishful thinking?

 

[Beef]

[Beef]

Still want a replacement for Hooiveld, he was great in the air but he couldn't control his feet let alone the ball.

 

[Stricky]

Nicolas N'Koulou is quite speedy.

 

[Piebacca]

I heard a rumour that cortese is going to appoint himself manager

Why not? he already picks the team, doesn't he?

What is going on in this world? Three British players through to Round 3 in the singles tournaments!! This is good!! And with Laura surviving a certain Mr Nice must be happy! Mind you, I still want Serena to win it to prove to Sharapova and the rest that she is still the Number One Queen B****!!

Tennis is upperclass rubbish. Anyone who likes tennis is supporting the establishment and when the revolution comes, your name has been noted.

Since when were Serena and Venus upper-class? Anyhow it is better to be noted even for a minute than not noted at all!

 

[Puck]

Well who better than Nicola Cortese to manage Cortese FC?

This shows you know **** all about tennis. I love playing tennis, I have been playing since I was young and it's a sport where people of different standards can play at the same time.

I'm more of a Robson fan than a tennis fan.

I think CBK was joking tomw19! I don't know him personally but I'd say he has a dry sense of humour, perhaps prone to being sarcastic at times??
