    [Football] Russell Martin new Southampton manager.

    It won’t be. As if this morning, Saints hadn’t yet approached Swansea for permission to speak to RM.

    [Albion] Predict the squad for 1st Sept ‘23

    Lamptey feels more likely and he’s had interest from other clubs recently. Sporting and Wolves enquired about him. Incoming wise - Ethan Ampadu is one that makes more and more sense for us. He’s impressing in Italy, can play a number of positions and Chelsea will be looking to get rid.

    [Albion] Predict the squad for 1st Sept ‘23

    His contract is up next month, but we have a year extension option. Can’t see him willing to sign a new deal, as assume he wants to play more. I also don’t think he suits RDZ’s style either.

    [Albion] Orkun Kökçü rumour

    Apparently on the Liverpool short list for their midfield next year. Also in the news for refusing to wear a rainbow armband.

    [Albion] New Right Back Needed

    I like Dedic a lot, but I don’t know if we could play him and Estupinian together in the same team. One of the reasons I don’t think Lamptey has played much is because the team needs a player with different strengths on the other side.

    [Albion] Carlos Alcaraz

    Looks like he knows how to score from a free kick. Our coaches will soon coach that out of him.

    [Albion] Damian Pizarro - 18 year old Chilean Striker

    From a quick search we haven’t really been linked apart from one tweet. The scout report I’ve read compares him more to Darwin Nunez than Haaland, but he’s a ‘all round striker’ and doesn’t appear to have a real weakness. Wolves and Benfica are main ones being linked. He has a release clause of 5m

    [Albion] Weston Mckennie

    I’m assuming the 200m doesn’t include sales? Selling Tierney, Balogun, Holding, Xhaka and Patino going will help cover the other positions.

    [Albion] Why do the detractors throw 'doing a Southampton' around willy-nilly?

    A few. Atalanta and RB Leipzig are two examples.

    [Albion] Why do the detractors throw 'doing a Southampton' around willy-nilly?

    There’s also some drawing comparisons to Leicester… “you’re only a bad window away from a relegation battle”. It’s lazy journalism churned out with very little research, but gives them something to talk about.

    [Albion] Weston Mckennie

    The initial source in Italy isn’t reliable. They have a history of making things up.

    [Albion] Can we talk about Sanchez ?

    Naylor just tweeted “De Zerbi, asked if Sanchez is training with the squad at the moment: "He decided everything. Robert decided everything at the moment. He wanted it this way (not travelling to be on the bench). Not me, not the club." Sounds like Sanchez is on the way out.

    [Albion] Enzo Le Fee

    Given Lyon are looking like missing out on Europe this season, I’ll question how likely would they be to losing Johann Lepenant. We could do far worse than getting him in as a Caicedo replacement. Nearest possible replacement according to FB ref.

    [Albion] James Milner

    I’ll be very surprised if Big Sam is managing there next season whether he keeps them up or not,

    [Albion] Levi Colwill

    If that is the case our number one priority should be Arthur Theate from Rennes. Young, left footed and can ping the ball around with ease.

    [Albion] Enzo Le Fee

    Bournemouth are one of the other clubs in for him… their owners have recently taken a significant stake in Lorient who Enzo currently plays for.

    [Albion] Ricardo and/or James Justin

    Barnes won’t be. There’s a few interested clubs according to reports and Leicester want 60m. We could get 6 South American wonderkids for that. Top of our list should be Enso Gonzalez aka Enciso 2.0 from Libertad.

    [Albion] Ricardo and/or James Justin

    I’ll bite… in some circumstances it makes sense to shop local. James Justin and KWP’s are both still relatively young, can play either side, know the league and have both been talked about as being options for England squad. If we’re playing European competition then we also need to be aware of...

    [Albion] Carney Chukwuemeka

    Could be for a number of reasons. Main one is he doesn’t suit the new managers plans and the other players brought in who can play his position. Especially if Poch wants to bring in more new cm options for next season. If there’s not a pathway, and given their FFP why not cash in now if you...

    [Albion] Ricardo and/or James Justin

    Gross was in an Ingolstadt side that was relegated from the Bundesliga. There can be very good players in relegated sides.
