    Losing Long is bad, losing Elmo would be catastrophic.

    Why are people talking about Elmo going when there's nothing to suggest he is?

    Fair play, it's just a rumour.

    £49.98 for a paperback?! I think this'll need to be advertised on the Southampton forum.

    WOW. This has got all the hissy fitters going.:D

    £12m ? No wonder we have allowed Long to go. Just how desperate are the Saints now ?

    Javier Hernandez has turned them down as he wants to play european football.

    I am sure that SB has got other options anyway. Speculation in the south mind has Long not happy with the terms offered.

    Long's wife is from Reading so she could well be the driver of this possible move from the start.

    He is going to Juventus according to the media but even if he doesnt he is clearly not going to come to us.

    Nope but that is why Saints have come in for Long. £12m is a great deal for us. No way is he worth anything like £12m. After last thursday against Trencin he was hardly worth 12p. His fluffed sitters could have cost us our EL place on another night.

    Long is like Andy Cole in that he needs 5 chances to get one goal.

    The spectre of Troy Deeney looms larger. But dont tell the Foxes fans. Lol.

    He wants Champions League football and he's never going to entertain us, he'll go to Juventus or Spurs.

    Is Deeney good enough? I dont think I watched him at all last season.

    What he wants and where he actually ends up might not necessarily match up.

    Deeney is a good player, but if you think £12.5M for Long is a lot then you don't want to know what Watford want for Deeney.

    I'd much rather play a Hull side with Elmohamady in it than with out him.
