Southampton will snub any bids for Sadio Mane, says Ronald Koeman

Image result for Southampton will snub any bids for Sadio Mane, says Ronald Koeman


The 23-year-old joined the Saints from Red Bull Salzburg last September and netted 10 goals during his first season in England, which included him scoring the fastest ever hat-trick in Premier League history in the 6-1 thrashing of Aston Villa in May.
Mane, who has scored six times so far this campaign, is reportedly attracting interest from Chelsea and Manchester United ahead of the January transfer window.

However, Koeman is adamant Mane and other key members of his first-team squad will not be sold in the New Year.
"Rumours aren't important: we will sell nobody," the Southampton manager said.
"You can ask again about Sadio, Man United, Chelsea, but we will sell nobody in January."

Southampton's impressive Premier League stabilisation under Mauricio Pochettino only ended with a host of raids on the club's top talent.
Koeman has since fought to stem that tide, though France midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin still joined United last summer.
The Dutchman believes Southampton can still bolster their profile enough to allow developing stars to progress at the same rate as the club.

iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus Review

For most of the reviews here at Gadgets 360, we use the mobile in question as our primary phone for about a week or so before sharing our verdict with you. We realise this isn't perfect, since there are some aspects of the device that don't become obvious during that time, and in an ideal world, we'd use every phone for a couple of months before we publish our review. But we work under constraints where most devices aren't available to us for that long - almost all products that we review are loaned to us by companies for short durations - and there's also the competitive pressure of wanting to get your review out before others do, as long as it doesn't involve cutting any corners. With the launch of iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus in India, Apple offered to loan the two new iPhones to Gadgets 360 - and indeed other publications - for more than the typical timeframe of a few days. The India iPhone launch of course came a few we...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have made these Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies at least 20 times now. Not exaggerating. I first made these when we were in the Philippines, when it was a struggle to just keep butter solid for 2 seconds on the counter, and they were absolutely incredible. I had no idea how or why, but they just WORKED. And they blew my mind in the way only a perfect chocolate chip cookie really can. But then every once in a while, they didn’t work. I’m not always super exact with my baking, but still. They were not thick and chewy and buttery like the perfect cookie should be. Some of your comments said the same things – most of the time they worked, but sometimes they didn’t. And I don’t like that. Now I’m back home in dry, cool Minnesota and I have been waiting for this day just so I could figure out what would really make these cookies awesome for you. You who live in normal climates and shop at Cub Foods. I am now speaking your cookie-baking language. Since I’m re...
