No nobody was scared of him . Mainly because he was from an overseas league . Redmond couldn't get into a struggling Norwich team . Why people suddenly believe he can replace a top striker is beyond me . He has potential yes but I wouldn't want him in the first team . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

I get what you're saying but Redmond is nowhere near the ability or skill of Mane . He may get there eventually but he certainly doesn't fill the hole left by Mane . You think our opposition will be scared of Redmond as they were of Mane ? Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Could say the same for many footballers though . Every signing could be the signing of the season . The fact that no one else has really gotten much out of him doesn't fill me with confidence . I honestly hope you're right though . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Redmond struggled to make an impact in a poor Norwich side . While he is in the under 21 England side ,so is Prowse so thats not really a sign of huge quality . He may have potential but I can't imagine he has been brought in as a first team player surely ? Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

That makes no sense at all Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

This is where I lack faith in the club . We shouldn't have to worry about this when we are in the financial position that we are Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

I wish the Echo would report actual news . These stories seem as if they are written by Saints themselves and handed to the Echo to publish . Hence the bizarre comments . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Its soo much simpler . In the vast majority of players its just down to money . Better players will leave . Modern players who fans claim are loyal are simply staying because we are as good as they can manage . They get game time which in turn improves their skill set . This sets them up for either an improved contract or a transfer to a bigger team . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Agree with this . Really hope to see more of Romeu this season . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Coming from the German league is a plus too seeing as its more similar to the EPL . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Yes . I don't tend to get too excited based on players videos anyway . Even Clasie looked good on his . I am hopeful based on a few fans who have seen him play but until I see for myself I won't get excited . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Not at all . As has been mentioned that video doesn't appear to give an accurate indication of what he can do . I'm hoping he is capable of a lot more . We really need a leader in the midfield role Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

I thought that too . Huge fee for someone who doesn't really seem to do much . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Would agree with this . Long also has the habit of hurting himself every game which is a concern . He is tough but if he got injured then its a very risky for us Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Would wonder if its more pressure from Les Reed to promote players . Possibly why Puel was chosen in the first place . Can see it being a struggle this season if this is the priority. Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

I was thinking that too . If Les Reed is determined to stick to that price range we are going to get left behind very quickly . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

He may not like the new home strip either ? Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Thats before the sale of Pelle as well . Saints are playing a dangerous game imo . Quality replacements are going up in price . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Kinda like a massively overpriced Fabrice Fernandez by the sound of it Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

I feel we should be looking for someone similar to Clyne in ability . I can't name specific moments in games , I usually struggle to remember to wear trousers before leaving for work . He just doesn't give off the dangerous vibe like a full back should . He is solid'ish but unspectacular. Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

He is ok but very limited . Everything he does ( other than the goal ) is ok'ish . His positioning is poor and is prone to mistakes . I don't feel that he can really deliver anything but ' OK ' performances . If we are to push on we need better than OK . Good back up player and has an excellent attitude though . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

I don't think he is good enough for us at this stage . Hopefully he can improve but the fact Martina gets picked ahead of him speaks volumes . Would rather replace Cedric or drop him to being a back up player . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Well basically I think we need a better quality RB for now rather than a prospect . More than happy for Cedric to be a bench player and get rid of Martina . Just would prefer a better RB to take the pressure off the CB's Sorry if I'm not making my point very well . Medication isn't helping my brain function Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

No no , I mean maybe they want him for the B team in the hope he develops into a player who can play in their first team . I would be very surprised if they wanted him for the 1st team unless he was a back up player . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Maybe they want Cedric for that team then in the hope that he develops . We really could benefit from a higher quality RB Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk
