Ashley Cole. Would def take him as a backup to Shaw. Think of the experience he could bring for 1 or 2 years.

We've already got one Lb thats past his best.

Ashley Cole is nowhere near as past his best as Evra is. Cole is still class.

newballsplease · 27-05-2014 04:43PM

I didnt actually realise Evra signed a 1 year extension. But from what i saw of A.Cole... He stilllooks like he can play at the Top for another couple of years. Evra is well past it to compare the two.

How much each for the World Cup Sweeps? €20 to make things interesting?? (with an increase on things for which you can win)

Ah it's set leave it.

I laughed too much at this

Headshot · 27-05-2014 04:51PM

99p is a tad much

Degag · 27-05-2014 04:55PM

Pochettino gone to Spurs. Hopefully will speed things up with Shaw.

Ha OK, I was just wondering what people thought about increasing it.

You'd imagine that could be the start of the exodus now...

Shaw and Schneiderlin would be nice!

Certainly would. Would like Lalana as well if he was cheap (he won't be though).

Ward-Prouse always does well in FM as well :P

Of Southampton's midfielders and forwards Jack Cork is the one I'd have far ahead of all the rest.

Ah stop it. Such a hipster thing to say.

Schneiderlin is miles ahead of Cork.

Thought he was older. At any rate I wouldnt have him any more than a tidy midfielder.

Is it possible that Southampton trying to negotiate with Pochettino is what has held up the Shaw deal?

I think it's more likely they know if they wait 6 weeks, they might be able to squeeze another 5m out of him (after the WC).

There's a reason NO premier league team has managed to do much business yet...

Whatsisname · 27-05-2014 06:03PM

Could it be Ponchettino couldn't be assured that his star players wouldn't be sold this summer and decided to jump ship? Can definitely see Shaw, Lallana, Schneiderlin and Lovren leaving now.

Is it wrong that I wouldn't say no to any of those?

Obviously wouldn't happen but they're all quality, imo.

Is that reason that the Transfer window hasn't opened yet in England?

Clubs can still do deals and announce them

The_Kew_Tour · 27-05-2014 06:07PM

You would feel sorry for Southampton fans.
Having the spine of that club being ripped out now.

They may make money but who is to say they can get replacements if same quality. I hope they do for their sake or at least have a strong enough team to do ok next season.

Is that not a bit strange? I never put too much thought into it. I assumed that clubs are in negotiations prior to the opening of the transfer window but nothing can be official until after June 9?

June 9th? Window opens July 1st. Clubs can announce when they want (Barca have already paraded Ter Stegen), but the transfer doesn't become official unitl July 1st.

He is in his bollocks.

The_Kew_Tour · 27-05-2014 06:31PM

WC only 2weeks away now. If things ain't done by weekend I say twill be after WC unless player is not WC bound.

Being tidy with the ball is a fairly important part of a midfielder's job. And Cork's first touch and close control is better than anybody else in the team.

His defensive positioning and discipline are very good. Good at tackling. Excellent close control and good passing. He's the one who makes their midfield tick.

No major problem if certain WC bound players are happy with a proposal and it's just dotting the i's crossing the t's. Sure wont be available to the club until after WC anyway

Worry is if nothing starts gaining momentum

Rayne Wooney · 27-05-2014 06:40PM

Pochettino going means a fire sale is on the way, I think he said he would stay if they didn't sell his players

Shaw is going and I wouldn't be too surprised if Liverpool got Lovren, Clyne and Lallana
