FWIW - I think the value we got is pretty fair. Just not a fan of coming out saying about how we demand X and they'll only leave on our terms. As you've said, in the minority I suspect. Although, I do think Che is worth more to us this season than £15m is next. So long as we get 2 strikers in, it wont matter.
-
I'm sure there was a Burnely fan on here a month or so ago - Mostly to talk about Tella. I'm fairly certain that he said when THB was mentioned that they have 3 really strong CB's so he might not actually get a game there.
-
Is that actually true? I was lead (maybe incorrectly) to believe he played more out on the left / in the 10. Not too dissimilar to how he's been playing here. Personally, I think at this level, he's absolutely brilliant in the deeper role and starts ahead of Alcaraz for me.
-
Fraser, Downes and THB are all absolutely brilliant championship signings.
-
Tino - wanted £50m, got £40m JWP - wanted £50m, got £30m Che / ABK - Sending out on loan ffs. I don't see how that suits the club in any way shape or form.
-
Can't wait to watch us cook, innit.
-
Really good defence that. Along with the midfield, that's arguably the strongest core in the league. Still - Goals, or lack of, is going to be what kills us.
-
Ahh yes, Spurs, that notoriously generous club. FWIW I don't care if he goes, I hope he does. I think he's an absolute quitter and summed up why we went down. Just wish we'd stop publicly patting ourselves on the back for being such stern negotiators setting unrealistic expectations we're never gonna get then dropping our pants.
-
it has to be 2 strikers. We cannot go into the season with 1 striker who has a questionable injury record and wont be fit for a month. and no, AA cannot play through the middle, we've seen that more than enough times
-
They've (saints) also tweeted a loyalty stamp card with 5 stamps and the last one left unstamped "Bonus Signing" Another one on the way or am I just massively reading into things too much? Probably the later.
-
The Southampton way... "Players only leave on our terms if it suits the club".. until we find out no one will meet our terms...
-
Cedric was / is shit though. Adams would play a key part in us getting promoted.
-
A loan just makes no sense to us at all. His record / performance in the PL is questionable, at best, if we go up, do we need him as much as we need him now? imo no.
-
There's genuinely a lot to like about this one and he does sound like an adequate replacement for Che. The big, big concern is that he seemingly can't stay fit. We cannot be pinning our hopes on someone with his injury record and who was only able to play 13 games last season.
-
He'll keep the medical team busy. Rossy, Rossy
-
Racism isn't funny and shouldn't be joked about. Another disgusting comment.
-
Stewart and Zeqiri would be decent business to cover Tella / Che. Zeqiri can play through the middle as well can't he? Sounds sensible to me as we can't rely on Stewart to play every game this season.
-
Spoiler alert - Leeds aren't finding out we're interested in X because of the daily echo tweeting about it or someone posting on a fans forum.
-
Disgusting comment.
-
Surely they'd fly up tomorrow? I know we're a little skint, but surely we're not that skint that we'll be throwing them on a 6 hour coach and a hotel for 2 nights
-
We can't reveal too much on this one - top secret. What I will say though.. If someone meets our valuation, he's off. Make of that what you will.
-
I think so, yes. We need to sign someone else as well though. The way I see it, he shouldn't be the Che replacement, so if Che goes, we should bring in someone else as well. The Macedonian lad from Aberdeen probably my choice at this stage.
-
He came on and absolutely changed the game. Pace, power looks like he can finish and is brilliant in the air. He'll do very well in the PL.
-
I really like Doyle, probably not too much in it. Different type of CB's though.
-
Very good player at this level, very good signing. Akin to the Flynn Downes one for me, exactly the sort of deal we should be looking at. Does leave us with 4 CB's who'll expect to be starting though - It'll be interesting to see how Martin manages that situation... CB is one of the positions you want a consistent 2 playing together every week. Is it a sign we will be moving towards a back 3? or Is bednerak off?
