Some no-mark on twitter was suggesting Cortese's Italian links might bag us Simon Kjær. That would be quite a coup!
I would love to see Dos Santos here at Saints, feel hes got a real touch of class.
On an unrelated note I would like to see us go in for Michael Turner, He is married to my cousin, which technically makes us related.. but so loose it barely has a name. I was talking to him at Christmas, and he was saying that both he and his wife really didn't like life much in Sunderland and were looking to move down south to be closer to the family. Probably a very long shot but maybe worth a punt? would add real experience to the back.

I think if Dos Santos was to get games you would see what a great player he is, he has been wasted at Spurs, he was so good and so promising when he arrived, I am sure at 19 he got a hattrick for Barcelona in one of his last games for them.
Simon Kjaer is in talks with Roma, I really doubt he will end up at Saints of all places. He's been linked with clubs of a higher standing than us sadly.

I would not say that as you never know if you would sign him, something mad could happen and he could decide he wants to play for Soton.

Which means he'll be expecting Chelsea level wage for not-Chelsea level ability
I mentioned on a different thread about GK's we should go for Brad Guzan from Villa. He would be free and only 27. Played some games in the PL so has experience. He really wants to start according to an interview I saw and we know NA won't guarantee that but he would certainly push SKD and might even be the number 1. If not right away, when SKD quits which won't be long I suspect. At 27 Guzan could be around for a while.
Possibly Dos Santos from Tottenham could be a good signing for saints and could easily help out our attack?
