IF true wonder how this will impact Morgan S transfer. Wasn't there info that they'd only allow one more player to move?

I don't believe it will. Saints' ITK has been rather adamant he was set to be off even before stuff about Lovren picked up.

My guess is Deschamps was all up in his ear this summer about making a higher profile move; and with the chaos and uncertainty at Saints atm, he saw now as a good time to move not only to set himself up optimally to stake his claim for a spot in 2018 but also avoid possibly hurting his chances by remaining in such uncertainty.

Reports saying it's done to Liverpool. £16 million upfront. 20 in total.

As much as I don't mind Lovren coming in, I'm not sure he's worth that money. I can't help feel Liverpool have done this deal to stop us from getting one of our targets. Don't know, maybe I'm just being paranoid...

@SimonPeach: Dejan Lovren soon to leave #SaintsFC then, taking this summer's transfer income to £70million. Not bad on a £9million investment.

Clearly an overpay, but for me the funniest part is that with all the players they've added and all the money they've spent Lovren is probably the only one who improves their team right now in any significant way.

Liverpool will be weaker this year than they were last year.

Who does Liverpool offload now at CB?

Currently they have: Agger, Skrtel, Sakho, Ilori, Toure, Coates, and Lovren soon
