I like this. keeps Bellerin on his toes and allows them to play Maitland-Niles in his preferred midfield postion

Sokratis is expected to be announced in the coming days for Arsenal

And Fellaini [emoji3]

Saints have sold Dusan Tadic to Ajax and look like replacing him with Norwegian Mohamed Elyounoussi. Also picked Stuart Armstrong from Celtic and Alex McCarthy has signed a contract extension. I'm a little disappointed with the Tadic exit as he has been a favourite over the past 4 years.

Armstrong’s a good get, bit of class. Agree with what you said about Tadic, very popular amongst the Saints fans & he loved the club.
Came through yesterday that we’ve now signed Elyounoussi from FC Basel on a five year deal.
I note that we’ve also gone back to the stripes on the front of our home kit, the back however looks a lot like a Man Utd shirt.

Wilshere to West Ham

Happy with that one. Apparently is on a 'Paid as you play' contract. Worth the risk considering we have lost Lanzini for the season.

Played most of the second half of the season last year.

Haven’t rated him at Samp but the EPL might suit him and at that price it’s worth a punt

Plays as a DM in Italy and rarely crosses the halfway line. Maybe Emeri might turn him into an AM

it's no surprise after Torriera shut out Ronaldo in the WC that he joined Juventus after Torriera left Italy

I’m a Serie A tragic and follow it more than the EPL so have seen quite a bit of him during his time at Samp and Pescara. He has never stood out but does his job without being flashy. Doesn’t offer the attacking flair but importantly for you guys he is quite regimated and will run all day. What he produced at the WC was better than what I’ve seen him produce at league level FWIW. You got him at a bargain price so nothing lost if it doesn’t work out but I think the English style could suit him as long as he doesn’t get into any aerial or physical battles

He played well early in the season against us and even scored which is rare for him. Dybala and Mandzukic cut him to bits in the return fixture
