It is a bit of a 'worrying' thought that we could be losing both Lamptey & Bissouma this summer
Certainly is. Must be horrible to be Southampton with what feels like a Top 6 team of ex-players.It is a bit of a 'worrying' thought that we could be losing both Lamptey & Bissouma this summer

It wasn't so much the losing the players, it was more both in the same window.

Bissouma for £40 M or keep him for one more season & the club gets zero. As we are a very well run club , plans will be in place for his replacement or other players that can take his position in the team . If £40m gets offered & he won’t sign a new contract , it’s almost certain he will be off . The best thing we can hope for is a bidding war with one of the big 6 clubs so pushes the price over £40m
Lamptey is a different situation, he’s on a much longer contract so unless he pushes to go there’s no pressure even if £50 m is offered .

And to those who don’t think he gets enough minutes, Jenas and Richards both agreed that he is being managed perfectly by Potter on MoTD2 tonight.
Considering Tariq took a pay cut to join us money isn’t his motivator which is a rare commodity in the modern game, he wants to play football. Can’t see him moving for a while yet.
