BOUFAL FROM LILLE!!!!

Well, with all the stories flying around it seems we are to sign Boufal for a heck of a lot of money (well a lot for Saints anyway), maybe around £21m.     Hopefully this will work out well but I am a little worried he may turn out to be yet another injury worry........as I read somewhere that he picked up a knee injury in May and won't be fit before September (which could presumably mean anything between 1 and 5 weeks).....and I guess he will then take a few more weeks in training before being available for selection.    Could be late October???

and then off to African Nations in January, still if he scores 20 goals in the 20 games he is here for should be okay. Were interested months ago and if we had done the deal then, supposedly started at 10-12m, we could have got for a lot less, Les reed arguing over sell on fees while the price rises until close to window closing and guess what we pay over the odds.

Hopefully will prove on the pitch he is worth it.

Cannot understand why we take so long to clinch a deal. VVD, Forster, Toby, still didn't stop Reed enjoying himself at Europa league drawer

I Hope he is very good and know how to play in the Diamond formation!
