Hampshire, good source?

Could be a great signing I donāt mind the sound of this rumour at all. Jota has shown what can happen when the right player with the right attitude joins the squad. Raphina, the new Jota?

A sound and dependable source, well known to the Hampshire Constabulary.

Wait, itās a local newspaper right? I confused it with New Hampshire, USA. 
How you doing, last I heard, you were in hospital.
Fine thanks. Iāll soon be ready for pre-season training.

Yup similar to the echo in us, Daily Echo would be their nĆŗmero one source down there but dunno is Hampshire Live is that (apparently not), will be a subsidiary of a local paper in someway mind, Reach PLC ironically sit over the Liverpool Echo.

Yep as someone who lives in Hampshire, can safely say the reliable source down here for Southampton FC related news is the Echo. Hampshire Live are relatively new - that said, doesnāt mean their sport journo doesnāt have connections.
Iād be happy for us to sell Taki on - I like him and think heās been unfortunate in joining Liverpool during a difficult period globally. If Saints want him, itās a good move for him. Weāll make a profit on him, and I canāt see him getting much game time in our forward line up, unless we were to end up with a injury crises up top similar to that last season with our centre backs.

All valid pointsā¦but Iād still take Raphinha in a heartbeat. What a start to the succession planning that would be!
Better mate - the new Mane. Probably a bs rumour, but Iāve seen a lot of Leeds games this season and Raphinha looks the full package - speed, stamina, passes, tricks, shots. Add to that that he (like Mane) tracks back, presses relentlessly and works very hard for the team.
Note to self - donāt get your hopes up, donāt get your hopes up on a bs rumourā¦

Oh I agree, heād be a great addition, if not quite the type of player the general consensus suggests we need.
The only thing that would actually frustrate me is a year ago we could have had him for Ā£17m and now heād cost double that. I know our modus operandi is to generally go after players once theyāve shown they can take the step up to the level below us but itād be nice if we could pick up one or two prior to that.
I suppose we tried that with Minamino and it fell quite flat but waiting for that extra step sure does cost you a few extra quid, even if it does mitigate some of the risk.

Does he routinely get hacked down and pushed but rarely gets the foul? Is he accused of diving when he goes down under at least as much pressure as myriad Man Utd or other english players who get āstonewallā pens? Not sure we need another player like thatā¦

Agree with you and Iād still bite their hand off if he was available for 34m, I think one more season and heāll be 50m+ (if heās not already) and the most most frustrating thing for me would be if he goes to a rival.
I donāt think theyād take any less than Ā£50m for him now
