Don't worry. The Kop will have a song prepared for you on March 1, 2016.

Re: The Transfer Thread

Only £24m for Schneiderlin—not to shabby at all. I asume his wages are hefty, though.

That takes the list of Southampton players who have been sold to bigger clubs since 13/14 to this: Adam Lallana, Luke Shaw, Rickie Lambert, Dejan Lovren, Calum Chambers, Nathaniel Clyne, Morgan Schneiderlin.

I feel like I missed one, but I think that's it.

Re: The Transfer Thread

I don't understand why ppl think Sterling won't continue to develop for Citeh. When you spend that much on a player they're going to play. We (Chelsea) did the same thing when trotting out a broken Torres for so long. He's going to slot it on the right and give them some much needed directness which is something they didn't get from Navas. 4-2-3-1 with Nasri/Silva/Sterling behind Aguero could be VERY lethal going forward (tracking back would be a nightmare although Sterling is the best defensively out of the bunch which isn't saying much, lol). Even 4-3-3 with Silva/Sterling on the wings could work.They still need MF help badly though.

No chance Navas plays more than him. None.

I still hope they go out and get a defensive midfielder. They haven't had a good one since De Jong left.

Who said Navas will play more than him? I said Sterling will take Navas' spot. You're right about De Jong. Toure needs a player like him to protect him.

Nobody, I was just agreeing with you

^ No wonder QPR are in a shocking state of affairs! They've pissed all their windfall and some away on Borini.

They're actually not doing so badly in my save in 17-18. Mid table!

Lol seriously, you've absolutely taken Spartak to the cleaners

Re: The Transfer Thread

I just sold Balotelli to Man City for $118 million in the summer of 2018.

To be fair, I did turn him into the 3rd best player in the world...

Re: The Transfer Thread

I would have offered a bid of 40,000,001 for Sterling.

Re: The Transfer Thread

Well, looks like I'll be paying more attention to Liverpool now that they signed one of my favorite players for the second straight summer window. Was hoping Milan somehow went after him, but he's not needed now.

Also Bayern seems to have pried Vidal away from Juve.
