His first match of the season.
Personally, I think he's fantastic player.
Yeah, I don't know too much about Koeman the manager before his time at Soton, but he's doing alright. They also have a very good support structure/chairman over there, by all accounts.Which is why they appointed the right manager for this type of situation.
Bloody hell yeah, forgot about that.I cant get behind this considering he goes away mid season to the african comp.
That seems fair enough... Afterall SAF didn't pursue zidane because he couldn't figure out where to play himReportedly wasn't interested in carrying on negotiations for Kroos, wasn't interested in Fabregas and more recently Otamendi. Don't get me wrong, he's signed some great players, but we still need a couple more in this window I'd say.

I expected alot of fans saying Best and Valancia in the same sentence blah blah. Basically this club can base its success on lads like valencia. Fletcher also comes to mind. Neutrals may ridicule but as fans of our club we should appreciate an honest player who I think cares more when he gets home than some of the stars we assume carry us to every trophy!I totally agree, effort and persistence has never been questioned.. I think he basically just got 'found out' so to speak. The oppositions left back has him in his pocket most games.
Totally in the same boat. There is a reason we have so far avoided these players. We should keep avoiding them.I'm a little wary of signing players that leave every second year to play in the Africa Cup of Nations. January is just when the going gets tough in the Premier League, and it means a risk that their minds can be elsewhere prior to going because they don't want to risk getting injured, and/or knackered or carrying an injury when they return.
Actually, not a lot of league games are played in January, with the 3rd and 4th round of the FA Cup.I'm a little wary of signing players that leave every second year to play in the Africa Cup of Nations.

He is only 23 so that's definitely a possibility. I'd quite like another proven talent in our line up too to bring stability.That seems fair enough... Afterall SAF didn't pursue zidane because he couldn't figure out where to play him
Similarly lvg seems to like more robust central midfielders (Carrick, Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin and blind last season) and prefers a striker in the 10 role rather than a midfielder... So great players though kroos and fabregas are they don't seem to fit his philosophy.
Mane would I suppose fit his philosophy but so would Pedro, griezman or Bale so it's hard not to be a little underwhelmed at the mane links... But perhaps he sees talent he can mould?
He's not a spine player he's a winger who effectively will prob never reach Mata's level!Totally in the same boat. There is a reason we have so far avoided these players. We should keep avoiding them.
All depends on availability. I don't think we averse to throwing up to £100m on either Muller or Bale, however, neither are likely to be sold.He is only 23 so that's definitely a possibility. I'd quite like another proven talent in our line up too to bring stability.
Us ghetto peeps pronounce it as "Main" brah. Get with the script dawg.It's pronounced ma-nay so your rhyme scheme is screwed
Apologies if you didn't intend it to rhyme
On Fifa.Five years younger than Pedro. He wouldn't be an elite signing but I see him and Depay terrorizing defences with their speed and skill.
Zidane joined Madrid at 29? there wasnt a player 5 years younger as good at that time?Five years younger than Pedro. He wouldn't be an elite signing but I see him and Depay terrorizing defences with their speed and skill.
I don't think there is one next year.I cant get behind this considering he goes away mid season to the african comp.
The feck Colback was doing in that
His first match of the season.
Personally, I think he's fantastic player.
He's already being mistreated it seems and he's not even our player yet!Oh no! i meant - he would be mistreated on here. Nothing against Fellaini or this guy, I don't even know who he is.
Not this year he doesn't.I cant get behind this considering he goes away mid season to the african comp.
Do you rate him?Not this year he doesn't.
I reckon it's just to try and make it look like we're still looking for a player (which we probably are) to try and nullify the disappointment of not getting Pedro.According to the journos who follow So'ton, No bid has been made neither an enquiry. This has come as a surprise to them aswel.
Often we here about smoke screens at this time of the year. Normally I laugh at the suggestion but this story seems to be falsely briefed to the press by us for a purpose. I could be wrong but reading what the Southampton Journos have said it's making more and more sense.
Yeah I think he's a good player and he won me over last season after I initially had doubts over his ability and temperament to make it in the league. Good squad option for a top four side although I'd say a club like Southampton is probably his level if he wants to be a key player.Do you rate him?
Get Mane's head turned before United make an official move?According to the journos who follow So'ton, No bid has been made neither an enquiry. This has come as a surprise to them aswel.

Yes. Classic PR. Diversion and maintain momentum through misdirection.I reckon it's just to try and make it look like we're still looking for a player (which we probably are) to try and nullify the disappointment of not getting Pedro.
It's quite funny, if true.I reckon it's just to try and make it look like we're still looking for a player (which we probably are) to try and nullify the disappointment of not getting Pedro.
Thanks, he seems talented.Yeah I think he's a good player and he won me over last season after I initially had doubts over his ability and temperament to make it in the league. Good squad option for a top four side although I'd say a club like Southampton is probably his level if he wants to be a key player.
Pedro is hardly Zidane now is he? Im just trying to look at the plus side of things. If Mane turns out to be a good signing we'll have him for years to come. I don't think this transfer will happen for what its worthZidane joined Madrid at 29? there wasnt a player 5 years younger as good at that time?
