I am literally cacking myself. Can't sleep, can't eat, can't focus. Was going to cricket tomorrow at the Oval but am worried I will not be able to follow every minute of this epic countdown, so I have thrown my ticket away. This is brilliant!!!

Did you make this a sticky yourself Glasgow? Very impressive!

 

There looks to be 2 deals done already, just need to be announced. On top of this, I would like to see a left back and maybe another CB, hopefully a top class one like Huth.

If we could come away with say Mayu, Ramirez, Yoshida, Davies and a left back i'd be made up. Think i might be disappointed though when we get Goodwillie, Williams etc and sell Rickie :-)

Rhys Williams is a cracking player, better than our current CB's. Only thing with him is his injury record. Would compliment us very well as he's a passing CB who can also play in midfield. Think I'd rather him that Curtis Davies, (though I wouldnt say no to either!!)

#SaintsFC to strengthen defence. Told preference is: 1 Nicolai Boilesen (Ajax), 2 Rhys Williams (Boro) 3. Curtis Davies (#BCFC). Will sign 1

If that's true then one of those plus Yoshida and Ramirez would be excellent.

Still too much of an emphasis on forward players, rather than much needed defenders. Hope we rectify this by the end of the window. Otherwise long, demoralising season.

Ryan Babel has been offered to Aston Villa, Swansea and Reading for a cut-price £2m by German side Hoffenheim, according to The Times.

 

2 pence is too much !

Yes, Boilesen looks quality and Danish players (and Ajax players) will have a good attitude. Would love it if we got him.

 

So that would be my order of preference too.

Nicolai Boilesen, a 6 ft 5 left back apparently (...wikipedia). At that size presumably he can play CB as well.

 

 

Newcastle target one-time Man United trialist Boilesen in £5m deal from Ajax

..Newcastle are lining up a move for exciting Ajax left back Nicolai Boilesen who was wanted by Manchester United and Chelsea when he was 17.

 

The Denmark defender had a spell training with United, while with Danish side Brondby, and spent a week with Newcastle. But instead he chose Ajax, where his development into one of the most promising full backs in Europe was hampered after he tore his right hamstring in September, putting him out for five months.

 

 

On the radar: Ajax defender Nicolai Boilesen is wanted by Newcastle

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew went to watch Ajax play De Graafschap last month but prior to the game Boilesen, 20, was ruled out for the rest of the season after a relapse.

 

The injury could work in Newcastle’s favour though as a £5m offer may now be accepted, once he recovers.

Hopefully, Goalkeeper as well

 

Sorry, but I believe KD to be our Achilles heel now we are back in the Prem

I think we have two -KD and Fox, with Fonte being a bit of a heel at times.

Gutted that Kana-Biyik went quiet, he'd of been an unbelievable signing.

 

Ramirez, Yoshida and Curtis is what I expect.

 

Ramirez, Yoshida, Boilesen and Biyik is what I'd dream of.

 

Yoshida only is what I fear

Top class and huth in the same sentence, that shouldn't happen!

I remember Harry getting rid of all our Scandinavians when he came here, he's had an aversion to them at all clubs he's managed with the exception of Hreidarsson (who being Icelandic is not Scandinavian anyway).

 

Anyway, sorry I'm digressing. Have we signed anyone yet?

Yes, not sure why we havent pursued him more aggresively esp if some of our targets (i.e. Ramirez, Boilesen etc) seem to sought after

Call me a pedant but that should be "he'd have been" and not "he'd of been".

Like Bendtner? ;)

 

TBH, the greatest thing about Bendtner is that he is quite un-Danish. Considering his lack of succes on the pitch, he's got a baffling belief in himself, which is a good attribute for a striker IMHO. He really believes the hype about himself...

 

But you would be hard pressed to find a less typical example of a Danish pro footballer than Bendtner ;)

According to a Freelance football journalist that is followed by a member of the Saints Media department...

In which case, expect two defenders to arrive before tomorrow's deadline.
