Koeman 1st press conference

[Brockley_Jack]

"Lovren to report back to training on Sunday".

"Pelle deal almost done"

Nice.

[Brockley_Jack]

Koeman: 'I spoke to Dejan 5 days ago. He said it's a difficult situation and he will have another talk to his agent and the club

[RICKYwillTAKEusUP]

Can that woman shut up about Luis Suarez and Louis van Gaal already!!!??

[saintwayne]

I would be very surprised if Lovren returned on Sunday. In which case he should not be payed a penny until he does return. He is the **** that has made it a 'difficult situation'.

Anyway impressed with RonKo, and good to hear the Pelle deal is nearly done.

[RICKYwillTAKEusUP]

Likewise, he speaks very well, and is refreshingly honest. Think he will do the right thing by the club with regards to the 'difficult situations' with Osvaldo, Lovren and (possibly, although he's handled himself well, and hopefully will be staying) Schneiderlin. I am obviously disappointed with the Lovren situation, but I can forgive him if he comes out with a public apology, acknowledges it was hugely unprofessional, and says he's had a good chat with Koeman and now realises the club's ambitions are in line with his own. There's no doubting he's a valuable player, and while I'm shocked and pissed off at his terrible attitude, I don't feel EVERYTHING is lost and definitely feel he can still help the club...

I'm surprised none of you have mentioned the very positive part ref Morgan at the end:

"No bids received, he's a Southampton player and will be a Southampton player

RK came across very well, reckon Lovren and Osvaldo are in for a boll0ckng soon

I take that with a pinch of salt PF, I still reckon he'll be gone come September 1st.

Why am I not surprised Wayne? Do you live in Austria and use the Alpine Saint on Saintsweb?
