I'd be surprised if Koeman lasts the entire season either.

A tweet from Alex Goring Crook......

Looks like Alderweireld is on after all after Koeman ruled it out last week. Dont you love deadline day?

Tweet from Alex Goring Crook....

There will be lots of rumours but #saintsfc targets are still as follows defender 1 Alderweireld 2 van Dijk, winger 1 Mane 2 Redmond

From Echo website....


The Daily Echo understands that both Toby Alderweireld and Sadio Mane are undergoing medicals at the club.

If all goes well then they will be unveiled as Saints players before the close of the transfer window this evening.

As the Daily Echo has been reporting all day, the pair are Ronald Koeman's top targets for deadline day.







Late interest in Schneiderlin...

Simon Peach on Twitter at 8:55pm....

Expecting a #SaintsFC announcement on Alderweireld soonish, with Mané deal confirmed later. Hooiveld likely to join #NCFC on loan for season

Been announced on Sky in the last couple of minutes that Hull City have signed Gaston on a season's loan!!!

Sky have confirmed that Hooiveld is off to Norwich on season's loan.


Sky have also said that a few loose ends are being sorted for the Toby loan to Saints but should be confirmed soon.

They also say that Saints are still awaiting for confirmation that their offer for Mane has been accepted!!! .....but they say Saints still expect the deal to go through. Hmmmm.....hope so.

Sky say that confirmation still awaited for Toby and Mane but it is expected that the deals will be completed in time.......just 30 minutes to go!!

If Toby deal falls through we need Jos back? If Mane deal falls through we need Gaston back?

An interesting comment posted on an Echo thread....

'NBC have a two hour deadline day show on at the moment. Just reported by Neil Ashton DM, that Hull and CP both made a 6M bids for Cork turned down by Saints. Hull were offered Gaston instead on loan, so they took him.'

Maybe we owe Kat, Kreuger and even Les Reed apologies for doubting them?

Sorry mike but I still dont trust reed and what has been achieved has been partly due to fact that Koeman is proving he is not to be messed with. We have a better squad now but not a better starting 11.

So far club have made £30m profit from transfers, plus the Sky money which I am okay with if now on a level playing field and no more need to sell. I still believe we don't know the whole truth of what is going on, just something is not right and I will hold judgement on what is going on at the club overall. More than happy with Koeman though,
