    Wonder much they're paying him now, good chance he might be on near £100k a week.

    Sounds like a Suarez deal. New contract then big money sale in the summer.

    That makes little sense, he won't be leaving this summer. He was already "tied in" for a long time. Before signing today he was already contracted until 2020, its now until 2022.

    Alright Ted don't appear out of no where and get the knickers in a twist.

    It's common practice to get your players on longer and more lucrative deals for the simple fact he'll posses a bigger fee should anyone now want him.

    Southampton know they'll eventually cash in on him, so would of upped his wages and buy out clause, just the usual.

    Class today didn't exactly sound happy with his new 6 year deal said he's happy to be there for the next 'couple' of years

    Surely bigger teams will go in for him during the summer?

    He'd walk into any team in the EPL in my opinion.

    He would. Can't think of any centre halves down there I'd rather have, in all honesty.

    Absolute monster and he is just sheer class on the ball.

    He'd do well in any team in the world I think. Doesn't have a weak area in defence and could probably play in the middle or upfront if you were desperate.

    6 year deal was a clever move by Southampton they've seen his talent and they no they can fetch a fortune for him

    The big man won both players player of the year and fans player of the year award tonight for Southampton. The big fella is strolling it down there. Still got lapses of concentration but he has everything you want in a centre half

    Think he's saved a * load of penalties this year and they had a good start to the season, it is the statistical best XI
