Jonno quick

 

[skintsaint]

wonder if their lanky Romanian keeper is going somewhere?...south maybe?

[skintsaint]

Jack Sullivan (David Sullivan's son) has tweeted that WHU will sign a 'top class' striker today.

 

Berbatov...

[Saint Garrett]

Berbatov...

 

First name which sprang to my mind, but think he's having a medical at Fulham ?

[Saint Garrett]

Looks like they will sign Sulejmani. Does he count as a 'top class striker' ?

[DANISH]

Kjaer is absolute quality, amazed a bigger club hasnt come in for him in England or abroad. Shame he'll want 75k+ a week or we could have tried to get in there

 

Beeing danish I've seen him quite a lot and I think he is sh*te....

[scotty]

Beeing danish I've seen him quite a lot and I think he is sh*te....

 

 

Coming from a fan who has posted 30 times in 6 years, I'm guessing that Danish is pretty sure of his ground here.

[Saint Charlie]

West Ham in signing a striker shocker!

That rules out Andy Carroll then.

[Dibden Purlieu Saint]

Joking aside, it is one of two, AC or Loic Remy.

[Dibden Purlieu Saint]

Kjaer hasn't been good for 3 years. Failed in Germany and Italy, will probably fail here as well.

[shirleysfc]

I read a lot here :-)

 

Slow reader?

[Glasgow_Saint]

Sky Sports sources understand that Jordan Rhodes has completed an £8million move to Blackburn from Huddersfield and has signed a four-year deal with the Ewood Park club

 

why didnt they spend like this last season?

[Glasgow_Saint]

Sky Sports understands Liverpool midfielder Jay Spearing has agreed a deal to join Bolton on loan.

 

gazumped??

[Glasgow_Saint]

Reports emanating from Italy claim Celtic are in pole position to land Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero

seems that way....i guess the money has dried put due to the "family" wanted rid of the club...this ramirez talk is a smoke screen before getting Ryan Smith back on loan

[SuperSAINT]

QPR's hectic final days of the transfer window are continuing as sources understand Portsmouth teenager Sam Magri is undergoing a medical.

Assistant boss Dave Kemp has suggested Stoke could bring in as many as four more new faces before the transfer window closes

[Glasgow_Saint]

Blackburn’s Martin Olsson and Bryan Oviedo of FC Copenhagen are understood to be West Brom’s leading targets as Steve Clarke aims to bring in a new left-back before tomorrow’s deadline

[Saint Garrett]

Japanese international Maya Yoshida is set to join #SaintsFC on a three-year deal from VVV-Venlo. More at http://www.saintsfc.co.uk shortly.

One interesting question ( I asked myself) - without getting any concrete answer is :

 

WHO has the authority to do the negotiations, agree deals, and literally sign players ? OK ...we know that " Super Nicola " is top man, but he isn't omnipresent ....

 

Of course he could be jetting it between Bologna ....and Geneva to finalise the Mayuka deal......BUT who is taking care of the details in Yoshida deal in Holland ?

....and presumably the one / two CB that we are (hopefully) signing maybe from the UK..and I can't believe that we haven't got a new keeper lined up from " somewhere " - so who does the stuff?

 

Pretty sure that Nigel doesn't get involved in that side of things, but does Les Reed ?.....or do we have a team of nameless / faceless lawyers carrying reams of contracts around going from one deal to another... interesting but ...I still wonder...

 

If NC is literally involved in everything, then he 's certainly clocking up a lot of traveller points on his airline....

Darn. A boy can dream, right?

[SuperSAINT]

Free agent Ivan Klasnic is open to a move back to the Premier League, with Queen's Park Rangers firm favourites to land the striker.

I thought they only signed goalkeepers....(same as West Ham who only sign strikers ....)

Thought he was going to Sheffield Wedmesday for some reason.

alex_crook: Yoshida in. Ramirez to follow + maybe one more. Patience is a virtue #saintsfc fans

this could well be (more than likely) the best set of transfers that I could ever remember for saints..in terms of improving the squad

If one thing has come out of all this - it's that the club isn't afraid to look further afield in order to get good young talent, which can be coached.

 

I don't think we'll ever be in the class to buy established Van Persies and Berbatovs type of player,..but signing a Zambian who was playing in Switzerland, a Japanese who's club was in Holland

....and whilst we are still waiting ....for a Uruguayan from an Italian club - it's shows a genuine worldwide visionary perspective.
