The Summer Transfer Window Thread 2014/15

[brenchill]

Perhaps one day he will be as good as Smalling and Jones.

[The Lusophone]

I really like Luke Shaw, and therefore don't want him ruined by going to Man Utd.

Southampton are stuffed if they lose both him and Lallana in the same summer.

I don't see we would ruin Shaw, if only by him being at a team you don't like.

Unlike some teams, we don't waste young English talent.

You made Smalling and Jones rubbish.

Ashley Young proves otherwise.

[Jimmy]

Oh, Ashley Young was always quite rubbish.

Whilst digging through old newspaper articles online of the Cole deal, I unearthed Boulahrouz, a modern day Chelsea Johnny Foreigner.

Khalid Boulahrouz, Chelsea's number 9!

[Colly]

One of my all time favourite squad numberings.

[Plubby]

Shaw sounds like a lot of money.

You're fired.

Shawly not?

[Plubby]

I deserved that.

[brenchill]

In true transfer rumour style, Man City, Arsenal and Man Utd are EYEING a move for Xavi. EYEING.

[Baddar]

United didn't make Smalling and Jones shit, Smalling and Jones did.

Well, "shit" is harsh, but they're ridiculously inconsistent.

[Plubby]

Nope, that was United.

[TCO]

Jones will be alright when he finds a position but Smalling is just plain terrible. Would be nowhere near an England squad if he didn't play for United.

[Baddar]

Nope, that was United.

K, I'll bite.

If United made them shit, they also made Ronaldo the best player in the world. Swings and roundabouts really.

[brenchill]

Real Madrid made him the best player in the world. He never won that award while at Utd.

[Dan]

Is today now "bid for Southampton players day"?

They didn't spend 80m on an up and comer - it was on someone who'd scored 40+ in England for a few seasons, including against Stoke, the team that sets the standard for football in the country!

It's a stupid argument anyway but just for the sake of it, go see 2008.

Looks like it. I wonder how Southampton are gonna plan on spending nearly 60 million.
