saint_bert Posted 31 May, 2012 Share Posted 31 May, 2012 wasn't he on loan at Swansea last season & spent most of it on the bench ? He was. I was listening to a journo who is very close to the Chelsea camp talk the other day, he said that Chelsea are going to take a bit more consideration about loaning their players out from now on.

sir_fred Posted 31 May, 2012 Share Posted 31 May, 2012 Swedish international Emir Bajrami is available from Twente. Have had a tough season but he is a good pacy winger who knows how to beat his man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professor Posted 31 May, 2012 Share Posted 31 May, 2012 Obviously, as you've not mentioned him, you mean to play alongside Spiderman (who imho is 'real quality' as you put it!)? Yes, I'm assuming the club will want someone to complement Morgan in the attacking MF role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMikey Posted 31 May, 2012 Share Posted 31 May, 2012 Regarding the CM choice what happened to the Steven Davis from Rangers rumour? It was probably just that, a rumour. Shame because I really rate him. If we ship out a CM (Hammond, Chaplow etc) then he would be great to bring in so we can rotate our centre midfield with more quality. Yes, I'm assuming the club will want someone to complement Morgan in the attacking MF role. Imo we also need someone to provide some strength and bulk at CM as well. Hammond plays that kind of role but I think he's too lightweight to be effective at it in the Prem. Someone like Birmingham had this year in N'Daw, big strong bloke but can pass the ball quite well too. I would love us to sign Liam Trotter, think he'd be perfect for us.

Saint-Armstrong Posted 31 May, 2012 Share Posted 31 May, 2012 I have noticed that a Saints fan asked Alan Nixon when the international transfer window opens and about us transfer-wise etc and he said: "It barely matters as u can't play until friendlies in July anyway. Some deals set up already." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS1980 Posted 1 June, 2012 Share Posted 1 June, 2012 Regarding the CM choice what happened to the Steven Davis from Rangers rumour? If there was any truth in this we may have been waiting to today as 1st June is when rangers players salary go back to full amount and as a result their release clauses kick in so would be cheaper to buy.

Tokyo-Saint Posted 1 June, 2012 Share Posted 1 June, 2012 Joey Barton would be a good signing. He is going to Pompey as soon as the embargo is lifted. They offered a higher salary than anyone else including LA Galaxsy and some team owned by the Satan of Brunai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
