Summer Transfer Thread and Gustavo Cisneros Type Rumours.

[Toronto Villa]

I'm glad for him and for Southampton, it's good to see a player willing to stand by his club!  Also at £50m we could go and get 2 players from elsewhere that may be more suited to what we need.

It's no different to what Jack did last year with us.

He has done it twice though, which is exactly what we was saying Jack should do.

Hopefully we can now stop pussyfooting around Grealish's (and JWP's) agent and tell him what we really think of him and his client.

Aye.

Send them down for the dirt nap.

Though in fairness to Barnett (and I'd never thought I'd type those words) I've heard from more than one person that it was Grealish and his clan pushing for this type of move for at least the last three years.

All the bilge about crying in his last meeting with the Villa squad should be balanced against the twat with the hairband badgering Micah Richards (of all facking facked cants) to engineer a move since 2018.

Wonder what Ward-Prowse's release clause is - guess Southampton fans will find out this time next year. 

Honestly, this is all a bit shite isn't it.  Just kind of underwhelming when it felt like we were on some sort of 'cusp'.

Have we been mugged off by ESR and JWP. Both landing bumper new contracts after their agents enticing us to show interest in them ?

I say that we put a blanket ban on any rumour where the player has a 3 letter acronym (is it an acronym? who feckin cares) to shorten a double barrelled surname.  NMFA's.

I’ll be honest am delighted JWP is staying at Southampton, I just see a fitter version of Hourihane, we have far too many physically wishy washy midfielders & sure his set pieces are superb but 50m there has to be better value out there.

Need a proper strong defensive midfielder, surely there are plenty of these in France, Germany, Italy or Spain???

They're initialisms as opposed to acronyms. Anyway it now means we're no longer being linked with KDB.

You'd think so. Leicester have found 3 in five years, there's got to be some Kante-like, or Kante-lite, midfield dynamo somewhere.

[steamer]

Good luck to him. Thats loyalty for you.

He is never worth the money they were asking. There is better out there

Agree fully, the scouting network should be finding better value for money.
We seriously need a "Snake" or Ian Taylor type midfielder to put his foot on the ball, break up play and move forward to pass to a villa player
Good luck to him for sticking with his team

[Flin5tone]

You do wonder what the scouts do, when we are told there's a network of scouts all over Europe. Sounds like one big Holiday

I still dream of Dennis Mortimer breaking up the play against Liverpool and surging forward  under floodlights towards the Holte end.
Maybe it was only a dream, as I can not remember if we scored.
But that is the type of player I want/we need

I'll be interested to see whether JWP will be at Southampton this time next year.

On through to Mortimers who's onside .
Could it be number two? Yes!

I am going to have a drink to celebrate my memory
Thanks for the Christmas present Ron
