I know i'm jumping the gun a little, but i am landed. it looks like rk signing is imminent. And if we can persuade monchi as well, i think i'll buy a lotto ticket. They say great things come in 3s, hahaha.

{Ed033's Note - you're landed?

04 Jun 2016 17:25:51
Hope he picks his own football director if he wants one, imposind a football director on a manager tends to be disaster. Koaman should have his own man.

04 Jun 2016 17:32:02
Landed is how we say extatic. got to admit tho i didn't think he'd leave saints. But their loss is definitely our gain coyb.

04 Jun 2016 17:39:08
I think they already kmow whos going to be dof. Doubt rk would come if he didn't know who it is going to be.

04 Jun 2016 13:50:53
not everton related hope that's ok but I have just read that arsenal have triggered jamie Vardy's £20 million transfer clause with Liverpool also being interested but are unable to trigger the clause themselves due to not being in the champions league which is fair enough but surely if Liverpool want him they can offer more than Arsenal offer clause or not and then its up to the player where he wants to go. Does that sound right or am I misunderstanding the situation?

{Ed025's Note - that does seem right to me AL but im sure ED02 can shed some light on it mate as he knows about these things..

04 Jun 2016 14:08:09
so Ed 2 is a man eh mate, us posters have always wondered on this one, you gave it away there Ed.

{Ed025's Note - as far as i know he is degs :)

I think Leicester are in control when it comes to teams who bid for him but are not in the champs league. Liverpool, for example, can offer 21m as it is more than the clause stipulates but Leicester would be in their rights to say no. With Arsenal, and other teams who qualified for the CL, they have no choice but to let the player enter talks.

04 Jun 2016 17:17:55
agreed spudv but my point was that if Arsenal have already bid above his clause then anyone can bid over that so I wasn't sure why the article was saying Liverpool couldn't take advantage of his release clause because surely the clause would'nt matter as it had already been met by Arsenal and any bid by anyone else is going to be accepted by leicester as long as it's more or the same as Arsenal's.

{Ed002's Note - You need to ignore talk of clauses etc.. The whole point of this is "if a team in the CL were to ..."}

05 Jun 2016 00:39:54
my point was ed if the team in the champions league paid enough to activate his clause then anyone could then bid over that clause even though Leicester don't have to accept thier bid they would be stupid to turn it down as it would be a higher bid and the player would be leaving anyway then its up to the player wether he wants champions league football but at a lower wage or no champions league which would be the case if he chose Liverpool instead of Arsenal.

{Ed002's Note - Youneed to get out of this "activated his clause" mindset.}

04 Jun 2016 13:33:11
He is coming he has called the coaching staff to tell them. This is on Southampton page versions off this. Saintdorset. Have a read his family work there and he has decided to join us.

05 Jun 2016 01:28:08
His fellow saints fans also slate this lad, seems that he posts quite a bit of nonsense! Not saying RK isn't coming but I wouldn't take that lads word on it.

04 Jun 2016 11:59:14
Koeman has agreed Terms with everton could be named today or tomorrow all coming on news now at last even Southampton are saying it.

04 Jun 2016 12:26:06
Sources from Twitter I see.

04 Jun 2016 12:39:13
The next step is the appointment of the DoF

That would be very interesting and EFC sending a message of intent.

{Ed025's Note - monchi or overmars would be good lance..

04 Jun 2016 13:50:21
I hope the DoF is already in place, you would think any incoming manager would need the DoF's approval as their working relationship is going to be crucial to the club's success here on in.

{Ed025's Note - i dont think he is though il postino, but a DOF is certainly the way forward and im sure farhad will be on the case and deliver the best possible mate..

04 Jun 2016 15:58:34
I would think if Overmars was a target as DoF then Koeman would only strengthen the chances of him coming!
IMO he would now be the favourite for the role between him and Monchi.

04 Jun 2016 10:02:04
I'll acknowledge this sounds unlikely before I begin but mate in Italy has said that Napoli are resigned to losing Higuian and are very keen on Lukaku and swap rumours are starting to circulate.

Even though Higuian is 6 years older all things considered that sounds like good business! Not heard anything in English press or anything tho?

04 Jun 2016 10:23:20
He won't want to come to us. I understand the rumour Rich but I think its one of the more far fetched ones.

04 Jun 2016 10:26:03
I've heard from 2 separate people on the fringes of Everton that Rooney could be returning to Everton this summer. One even stated that talks have been going on for 6 weeks between the two parties. Could be a good move to bring on players like Barkley, and also help get Everton the brand stronger overseas once more.

04 Jun 2016 10:51:08
To be fair I've heard the same rumour and posted last week.

{Ed002's Note - It is true that Napoli are interested in Lukaku but a move there is unlikely. There is no chance of an exchange for Higuain. There are no talks about a return to Everton with Rooney or his representatives.}

04 Jun 2016 10:57:38
Swap deals are very rare.

04 Jun 2016 16:04:58
I think Mourinho will keep him and not sure if Wayne wants to come back if i am honest.

04 Jun 2016 07:00:45
Dutch press reporting compensation package agreed and now just personal terms.
Monday morning announcement?

04 Jun 2016 09:00:40
Hope it's all true Mush, the main thing is we do everything proper and above board i. e. show respect to Saints fans and Southampton Football Club .

04 Jun 2016 09:51:48
Ed when a club is looking at a compensation package what is it they are actually negotiating? Is it just a final one off payment or do they negotiate additional payments based on the success of the manager?

{Ed002's Note - It would be a signle payment.}

04 Jun 2016 10:44:12
Has koeman definitely signed. a lot of media talk saying Southampton are putting up a fight.

{Ed002's Note - Koeman has not signed with Everton.}
