Saint_Mabes Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 CMS Danns Cork A decent centre back (not knowledgeable enough!)
TijuanaTim Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 Very good response mate! Tonge maybe I like ball-playing CBs ;-). We need a quality GK, Kelv is a loyal good man and a decent 'keeper, yet we should be looking for better than decent IMHO. Onyewu is not good enough for AC Milan, but too good for Belguim and would relish a stag at CCC let alone another chance at the Prem. Gera is a fabulous player that needs to stop bouncing from one poor Prem situation to another and McFadden, he is just exciting and quality 'on his day'. Ambrose should be our # 1 target.
benjii Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 Don't get why people want to sign Bridge. He has been poor for ages and we have 3 very good LBs on the books, not to mention Shaw, who seems to be getting rave reviews. Signing him would just be adding another very large chunk the the wage bill. Indeed. Let's sign Ormerod, Higginbotham and Oakley as well. It might make no sense but at least they played for Saints once.
Crab Lungs Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 You're all mental. I've been saying it for 2-3 years now: Gary Roberts Hopefully some of you've been watching the Hudders/Bmouth match tonight... and will people stop saying Wayne Bridge? He's f()cking ****e now and wouldn't be any better than Dickson/Harding. He's really, really on his way down but he's yet to be jettisoned from the Premier League yet.
John Cool Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/13436995.stm Perhaps we could make 'Arry a tempting offer?
Badger Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 Jack Cork was good for us and is no doubt a realistic target,but for people putting his name forward, what is his best position,and where might he fit in for us ?
saintscottofthenortham Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 CDAJFU's Peter Clarke and Pilkington if Huddersfield dont go up Pugh if Bournemouth dont Mackaill Smith if P'Boro dont although he might go anyway Jack Cork or Micheal Mancienne Henri Lanzbury on loan from Arsenal I would boo that c**t every time he touched the f*****g ball!
revolution saint Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 Jack Cork was good for us and is no doubt a realistic target,but for people putting his name forward, what is his best position,and where might he fit in for us ? Centre mid in my opinion. Decent tackler, good passer, quick reactions and it seems a good work ethic. I'd love us to sign that mythical "midfield general" but sadly there aren't many around but Cork can be the closest to it.
Appy Posted 18 May, 2011 Posted 18 May, 2011 I would boo that c**t every time he touched the f*****g ball! Why? He is a very good defender.
Saint Stimp Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 Getting on a bit but Zenden is available. Would be a good influence in the dressing room, especially with some of the younger midfielders. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/13442226.stm
Turkish Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 I would boo that c**t every time he touched the f*****g ball! Yes why? He's probably been the second best centre half in L1 this season, would be a good signing and a good partner for Fonte. On another note what about a few Bournemouth players? Been impressed with Pugh, Lovell, Ings and Holland this season.
Saint Charlie Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 I don't really rate Ings to be honest. Nice header yesyerday but hsi first touch is poor and doesn't have any stand out attributes IMO. Compared with a Connolly, Barnard or Lambert he is nowhere near them.
Puddings and Monkeys Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 Getting on a bit but Zenden is available. Would be a good influence in the dressing room, especially with some of the younger midfielders. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/13442226.stm How do you know he will be a good influence?
MINIBARCELONASAINT Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 How do you know he will be a good influence? He's dutch. Can we not sign two dutch players. Dutch duo's mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Turkish Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 Jack Cork was good for us and is no doubt a realistic target,but for people putting his name forward, what is his best position,and where might he fit in for us ? Well HCDAJFU in a number of positions, but i'd prefer him in midfield, can tackle, pass, good all round player. I'd like to see us be able to play 4-2-3-1 with Cork and Schniderlin as the 2 - Chamberlain, Gully, Lallana as the 3 and Lambert as the 1. This may change though depending on new signings, like CMS!

CWD Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 where would owen fit into this team..? ffs we'd almost managed to move on for a minute there!
shirleysfc Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 Yes why? He's probably been the second best centre half in L1 this season, would be a good signing and a good partner for Fonte. On another note what about a few Bournemouth players? Been impressed with Pugh, Lovell, Ings and Holland this season. The only Bournemouth player I'd been tempted to take a punt on is the centre back Pearce. I'll prob live to regret this but... I don't think anyone else in their squad has the ability to make the step up to the championship.
Turkish Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 where would owen fit into this team..? On the bench, i think he has lost it and not good enough for us.
MarkSFC Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 Craig Makail-Smith, Pilkington, Cork, Craig Dawson, and a decent keeper who commands his area, can kick rolling balls, and can distribute quickly (to a speedy little winger for example) would be my wish list. Others who would be good include Wes Newton, maybe Matthew Mills, Danny Graham. The best bit about being in The Championship now is that it opens up many more options especially in terms of Premier loans of which I'm sure we will have one or two.
farawaysaint Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 The only Bournemouth player I'd been tempted to take a punt on is the centre back Pearce. I'll prob live to regret this but... I don't think anyone else in their squad has the ability to make the step up to the championship. Danny Ings would be a great signing for the future, strikers are always overpriced and a good 19 year old like Ings could be developed and sold on for a much bigger fee than B-muff would take from us. They'd probably demand a hell of a sell on though like with Lallana.
MerceSaint28 Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 Ings might be worth buying and loaning back to B muff. I think Pearce is a pretty good centre back and worth considering also, he is certainly better than Seabourne who is not good enough IMO. Pearce/ Danns/ Cork/ CMS/ Jennings would be quality additions Seabourne, Mills, should be sold Gobern, Martin and Forte all loaned out
Saint Stimp Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 How do you know he will be a good influence? he just looks like a lovely man.
saintrich Posted 19 May, 2011 Posted 19 May, 2011 Danny Ings would be a great signing for the future, strikers are always overpriced and a good 19 year old like Ings could be developed and sold on for a much bigger fee than B-muff would take from us. They'd probably demand a hell of a sell on though like with Lallana. Ings was turned down on more than one ocassion by Saints, so I'm not sure playing 20 or so professional games will change our coaches' mind.

Bailey Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11719_6942169,00.html Murray confirms he's leaving Brighton. Maybe we'll see him at St. Mary's next season?
Badger Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Murphy & Mirfin, both Sc^nthorpe,and both previously mentioned on here, are leaving so might be considered by Adkins.
Thedelldays Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 so, can we all now stop with the CMS signing for us...it is unlikely (very) that is will happen
SuperSAINT Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11719_6942169,00.html Murray confirms he's leaving Brighton. Maybe we'll see him at St. Mary's next season? Seems likely. Can't see us landing CMS. He'll be Norwich bound.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 According to someone on the Posh forum CMS is going to Watford and is a Watford fan.
Thedelldays Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 According to someone on the Posh forum CMS is going to Watford and is a Watford fan. would be an ideal replacement for danny graham
Rebel Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Brighton started their signings today with Hoskins that's alright we've already got a striker called Hoskins - Sam Hoskins from the youth team - there just playing catch-up! anyway Sam's the way to go as we are supposedly interested in Sam Baldock at MK Dons
shurlock Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Terrifying. We'll have Alpine's list of all the crap players everyone has signed soon, asking why we haven't gone in for them all. Hoskins is a decent player - 20 goals for a team that got relegated and NPC experience.
Crab Lungs Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 They weren't as good as Bridge. He's lost form after being a sub at Man City, then playing for an appalling west ham side under terrible management. How many underperforming west ham players would we want? I'm guessing there's quite a few. Also, I believe some players would just find better form at Saints. Bridge and Beattie are perfect examples of this, IMO. Some players fit certain clubs. It's an easier league, they'd have the fans on their side, and desperately want to do well. Maybe there are better and cheaper options, but both would add something. So that'd be Bridge, Harding, Dickson, Mills, Reeves and Shaw... why on earth would we need another left back? And with that, an expensive one? Whilst I do subscribe that some players do perform better at some clubs, Bridge is completely damaged now and on his way down at a rapid rate. Man City will be delighted if they can fob him off to someone else in the summer.
doughnutman Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Perhaps we're the club who put the bid in for Danny Graham?
Matthew Le God Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Perhaps we're the club who put the bid in for Danny Graham? Numerous media outlets are reporting it as Q.P.R. that made the bid.
SuperMikey Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Perhaps we're the club who put the bid in for Danny Graham? As MLG said, it was QPR that put the bid in. They put a bid of £2.5m in earlier, willing to go up to £3.5m.
Thedelldays Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 As MLG said, it was QPR that put the bid in. They put a bid of £2.5m in earlier, willing to go up to £3.5m. i will be amazed if we pay over £2m for a single player in the summer..... graham is a great striker at this level though...
benjii Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 If CMS joins Watford over Norwich or Saints he is a massive div!
Matthew Le God Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 If CMS joins Watford over Norwich or Saints he is a massive div! - Watford are apparently the club he and his family support. - Norwich in the Premier League. I would question why he would choose Watford over Saints for football reasons, but not Norwich in the top flight.
benjii Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Mmm,Nathan Tyson anyone. Would happily have taken him last year as our "pace option" but now we have Forte I can't see the point. He's lightning quick but he's pretty rough round the edges. We should he looking to sign someone better than that who can compete with Guly and Connolly on ability. That's not Tyson!
Chez Posted 20 May, 2011 Posted 20 May, 2011 Mmm,Nathan Tyson anyone. Total headless chicken. All the pace you could want but does absolutely **** all with it. Forte looks a better player to me.
rooney Posted 21 May, 2011 Posted 21 May, 2011 Total headless chicken. All the pace you could want but does absolutely **** all with it. Forte looks a better player to me. Too true. He looked a good prospect a few years ago when in League one but has not developed at all.
View From The Top Posted 21 May, 2011 Posted 21 May, 2011 CMS, Danns and a CB and I'd be a very happy chappy.
