    On Oxford,

    I'm fairly sure he signed a long term deal a couple of months ago, so losing him is unlikely at the moment. I think that, at 18, he can't really expect to be in the first team, though I would like to see him feature more than he has.

    As MrsG says, a loan to a good Championship / League One club to get some experience would be a good move, IMO. Maybe Bradford? They've done good jobs with both Burke and Cullen, and playing at that level against some experienced pros and a few battering rams can only be good for him.

    I like the idea of working with Bradford more, tbh. 4/5 years ago we sent everyone on loan to Colchester and they hardly got games and nobody really developed. At Bradford they seem to really bring the lads on a long way. Fast becoming my second team, tbh.

    CALLERI ON THE MOVE?

    West Ham loanee Jonathan Calleri is on the verge of joining Las Palmas, reports Marca.

    The Argentina striker joined the Hammers on a season-long loan from Deportivo Maldonado in August but has managed only two outings for Slaven Bilic’s side.

    He is set to trade London for the island of Gran Canaria, with Marca reporting that negotiations between Calleri’s agent and Las Palmas are so close that a deal could be announced imminently.

    Las Palmas appear to have fended off competition from Sao Paulo, who were also keen on Calleri, while the 23-year-old spurned interest from Alaves, Leganes, Sampdoria, Galatasaray and PSV.

    Calleri is set to join Las Palmas on a long-term loan deal that will last well beyond the summer.

    In his presser earlier, Slav was asked about Calleri. According to club twitter, he answered: : "@Jocalleri always gives 100 per cent. He is not playing at the moment but we have to see what will happen and listen to the player."

    Right back.

    We need a right back.

    To play at right back.
  • Pearces_Left_FootPearces_Left_Foot
    We have Byram and Arbeloa and not forgetting Nortdviet ;wahoo although I agree we could do with a top quality RB
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Well, we have Byram.
  • LukerzLukerz
    WBA have bid for Jake Livermore accepted.

    WBA in talks with Watford over signing Ighalo.
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Yes we have boTh byram and arbeloa so it's down to the manager to play (either) as a right back. As things stand one is available the other injured

    Which means Watford could very well be in for Hogan shortly...

    £10m, apparently ;nonono

    Evening Standard report that Fonte to West Ham will be concluded in the next 24 hours, a fee believed to be £8m.
  • Tomw85Tomw85
    I don't get the Fonte signing, wouldn't we have been better just keeping hold of Tomkins in the summer...

  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    ;ok

    (Except that he wanted to go, so it would have been difficult.)
  • TwistandShoutTwistandShout
    Top signing IMO
  • McHammerMcHammer
    Another dig at Payet with the word now?

    When you look at the figures being banded about for the likes of Livermore you have to say that would be a cracking deal.

    Is he after a last payday in his career? Perhaps so, but then so was Lucas Neill and he was a good signing for us.

    Fonts has been class the moment Southampton got promoted to the division and despite being 33 he's rarely injured and is a huge upgrade over Collins (who breaks down a lot) and Ogbonna who's been very poor all season

    Lot of people mentioning Oxford.....guys the boy has only just turned 18

    Yes he's a huge talent and probably can do a job but when has an 18 year old been a first teamer for any EPL team let alone one with quite poor confidence like ourselves

    Let him develop at a nice pace doesn't need to be rushed and ruined

    I'm just jesting, I actually agree with you.

    He did Hants, you're right.

    I find it really odd that any Saints fans wouldn't rate Fonte, but I don't know any so I'm not sure
  • Pearces_Left_FootPearces_Left_Foot
    They probably have got the hump because he handed in a transfer request ;hmm
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    My bosses boss is a Saints fan, and he doesn’t rate him.

    Well, he hasn’t rated him since he handed in a transfer request.

    Last season, naturally, he was one of the best defenders in the league. Now he’s asked to leave, he isn’t.

    But I’m confident the two things aren’t related…

    Bit like someone else we know... ;whistle
