for_heaven's_Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 De Bruyne from what I've heard, but unsure myself. Where'd you hear this? Wouldn't say no!
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 De Bruyne, i thought he was off to chelsea? Exactly, why I thought it was bs.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Where'd you hear this? Wouldn't say no! A mate text me. Used to coach the young uns at Saints and knows people in the club, but then has been wrong before, as well as right. Don't know what to believe.
Crazy Diamond Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Well if we're going to spend £10 million on Hooper I suppose we can spend £8 million on De Bruyne. It might keep Dalek quiet.
Crazy Diamond Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Let's also not forget Marvin Sordell while we're there. Sean Dyche has actually had to come out and say they won't sell on the cheap and didn't deny that both us and West Ham are after him.
Matthew Le God Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Siphiwe Tshabalala I dread to think how Dave Merrington would pronounce his name.
Crazy Diamond Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Siphiwe Tshabalala On trial at/has been offered a trial by Palace believe it or not. They can have him. Record isn't exactly **** hot.
BlakeySFC Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 On trial at/has been offered a trial by Palace believe it or not. They can have him. Record isn't exactly **** hot. I remember him scoring for South Africa at the world cup in 2010, his name is hilarious to say hundreds of times when drunk
niceandfriendly Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 De Bruyne from what I've heard, but unsure myself. Good man to have near the top of the order, and a handy bowler, but not sure Surrey will be prepared to let him go.
Ashby Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Fourth Official on twitter suggesting Stefano Okaka from Roma.
Ewell Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 like keeper Thibaut Courtois before him, he will launch his Stamford Bridge career with a season-long loan at another club. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2084454/Kevin-Bruyne-closes-Chelsea-move.html
skintsaint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 I don't think it will be another striker personally.
alehouseboys Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Siphiwe Tshabalala "Tshabalala-la, la-la-la, Tshabalalal-la, la-la-la, Tshabalala-la, la-la-la, who the f*ck is laughing now!?"
Avenue Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Let's smash it up and get Joe Cole in!!! ?
dubai_phil Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Let's smash it up and get Joe Cole in!!! Hmmm as cover for AL yes For his wages....
S-Clarke Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 If it's De Bruyne I will walk around Southsea for the day in a Saints shirt. He's one of the top talents in Europe and will cost upwards of £9m. Barca, Real, Chelsea, Bayern have all registered an interest in the past!
Window Cleaner Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Let's smash it up and get Joe Cole in!!! Aren't Liverpool swapping him for Moussa Sow?? Anyway doubt if he'd get into our side, seen him on TV with Lille a few times of late,not so great really.
Pilchards Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 (edited) The more I think about it the more I believe it will be Clyne from Palace. He never played yesterday which according to the Palace forum was a mystery. They signed a player called Mcshane last week for a months loan and he can play in the cup as stated on their official website. Mcshane came on as sub and played okay, he's a Irish international right back. We was looking for a right back recently as he does not fancy Burtterfield anymore, IMHO Richardson has a great cross but does not do 'skinning the left back' very well while Clyne does it all. Reckon a 2m deal could of been agreed and the guy is coming to us. Edited 15 January, 2012 by Pilchards

Reckon a 2m deal could of been agreed and the guy is coming to us. According to the Journos up in Palace we inquired very seriously at the end of August. He still hasn't signed his contract and he's available for free in the summer, so you'd imagine a fee of around £2m could be tempting for them. Don't think it's a massive priority though as we have Fraser, Butters, Stephens and even Harding who can play there. But he's quality and will improve the squad, so can't complain if it happens.
Pilchards Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 De Bruyne?!? haha give over unless Newcastle have offered us 10m for Lambert, must admit Lambert needs to be replaced soon as he has a good 2 years left on him.

I think people are getting carried away here, nay extemporising.Kevin De Bruyne will cost 15 million euros and he's probably only worth about a fifth of that.Wait and see Lukaku and Courtois will be back in Belgium or Holland or Germany on loan soon.Chelsea are nutters in the transfer market, keep buying players they have no use for and ruining budding careers.
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 I will plump for Adomah Yes please.
pap Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 I am not ITK, but I do find the Clyne rumour interesting, particularly as we've been linked with him before and Nige is currently starting Dan Harding in at right back. If your first choice right-back is a left-back, then that's probably an indication of where we need to strengthen.

If your first choice right-back is a left-back, then that's probably an indication of where we need to strengthen. We all thought we were fine at Left Back with Harding, Dickson Mills & Reeves, yet we brought in Fox. Our style of play & the 3 CM midfield places a heavier reliance on the full backs so yes could have legs. Would then mean AL Lee & to an extent Guly offer the options in the Diamond with Hooper & RL up front. SDR, Holmes, Guly & AL out wide offer the options for the rest of the season if we need to play 2CM's Yeah, could work

In the summer maybe, if we have got promoted, but not in this window.

Tribunal fee is likely to be around £2M, so I reckon Palace will bite any hands off that happen to be holding more cash than that. Really depends on the player and the sales pitch we give him. Wolves came in for him last year - Clyne didn't even enter talks. A quick search on Twitter reveals that every top (as in, think they're good) Championship club seems to be chasing him. Man Utd are also reported to be interested. It'll be something of a coup if we manage to secure his signature.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Would love Clyne, though I'd be a little dissapointed if we didn't bring in a winger or attacking midfielder.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Sixth official on Twitter say its a 99% done deal for Rohan Ricketts Id be pleased with that if true
PhilippineSaint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Sixth official on Twitter say its a 99% done deal for Rohan Ricketts Id be pleased with that if true Your easily pleased then there is no way he is good enough for us.

Badger Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 According to Wikipedia, De Bruyne's mother was born in Ealing. Takes all sorts. Might be spelt incorrecectly and should read Eling nr Totton, in which case it'll be a done deal as we always sign players with local connections (Vokes, Jukiewitz, Stock, Howard, Holly Vallance etc ).

ottery st mary Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Disgraceful sexist comment from you young Ottery. Write out 100 lines "I must not make crewd suggestive remarks on the main board". It is all a mystery to me;)
O_RLY Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 This is the guy maybe? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16563619.stm
ChrisPY Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Did Snodgrass play yesterday? Yes. Although that was my initial thought...
CWD Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Did Snodgrass play yesterday? Yes, and scored too.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 We are very realistic about our potential targets on SWF
skintsaint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Tim Cahill....just putting it out there. Pretty unhappy at Everton according to Aussie press. Attacking midfielder who gets goals...
Window Cleaner Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Abe from Leicester to help Lee settle? Perhaps we could get Maeda as well,he's turned down West 'am apparently, must have been at Nottarf Krap yesterday and didn't fancy playing on public recs.
CanadaSaint Posted 15 January, 2012 Posted 15 January, 2012 Tim Cahill....just putting it out there. Pretty unhappy at Everton according to Aussie press. Attacking midfielder who gets goals... If we'd signed him when we were supposedly trying, when he was at Millwall, we'd likely still be in the PL. He's a hell of a player whose game has gone completely pear-shaped scoring-wise, so he desperately needs a change of scenery. A reliable midfield goal scorer would add a lot to us but I doubt that he'd come here. Plus, Everton might have not forgiven us for selling them Beatts.
