Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 When someone tells you they did then you listen!!! Fair enough- from his interviews it didn't sound like he was angling for a move but if he told you that then its probably right!
Window Cleaner Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 When someone tells you they did then you listen!!! Did Billy Sharp not tell some newspaper or other that Saints needed to get their ducks in a row concerning his situation or did I imagine that? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19490760 so is there not a contradiction here ?
Thedelldays Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 forget Thomas Ince...off back to Anfield apparently
Dig Dig Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 forget Thomas Ince...off back to Anfield apparently Didn't people say that about Gaston? ; )
skintsaint Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 maybe put a few decent bids in for the best players for the teams around us (apart from Reading)......
Tokyo-Saint Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 maybe put a few decent bids in for the best players for the teams around us (apart from Reading)...... Harry is already down to the barebones mate, he doesn't need us taking his players off his hands. Not unless there is something in it for him anyway.
Window Cleaner Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Harry is already down to the barebones mate, he doesn't need us taking his players off his hands. Not unless there is something in it for him anyway. read yesterday that someone had put in a decent offer for Granero (Fiorentina maybe) and Taraabt will probably be on his way as well so there won't be much left for us to bid for.
skintsaint Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Didn't Harry get rid of Taarabt at Spurs? Chuck a cheeky bid (plus a brown envelope full of fivers) as he may need to make room for all his signings this window.
Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 maybe put a few decent bids in for the best players for the teams around us (apart from Reading)...... Still think someone like Richard Dunne might do a job for rest of this season - but doubt Villa would lose him to a rival.
Window Cleaner Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Still think someone like Richard Dunne might do a job for rest of this season - but doubt Villa would lose him to a rival. only job Dunne does well is scoring own goals.
Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 only job Dunne does well is scoring own goals. A couple of years ago he was quality - probably over the hill now, but we could do with someone like him back from back then.
Window Cleaner Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 A couple of years ago he was quality - probably over the hill now, but we could do with someone like him back from back then. not sure that he's even still at Villa
Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 not sure that he's even still at Villa Yeah he is, just back fit after injury but Lambert doesn't pick their top earners.
S-Clarke Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 forget Thomas Ince...off back to Anfield apparently More mental management from Liverpool. Rather than getting him to sign a long-term deal 2 years ago and then send him out on loan, they let him leave on a free. I therefore expect them to pay upwards of £10m for him, which would be the norm for them. They love overpaying for British players.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 12 December, 2012 Author Posted 12 December, 2012 forget Thomas Ince...off back to Anfield apparently I can't believe that Liverpool would pay near-on £8m for a player they let go for £250k. I think the embarrassment would stop them. I also seem to remember Ince saying he really didn't enjoy being there. I know the Manager has changed but still, don't see it.

Do they really need him? They will be buying a striker first of all if anyone.
Thedelldays Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Paper talk for me. Do they really need him? They will be buying a striker first of all if anyone. sort of a rogers type of player in their system...sterling one side, ince the other.... who knows

SuperSAINT Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 sort of a rogers type of player in their system...sterling one side, ince the other.... I could see that happening.
Marsdinho Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Here is one for you.... Vlad Chiriches from Steau Bucharest. There could be one or two problems signing him as Barce, AC Milan and Chelsea are all rumoured to be interested, but none have followed up with a bid. €10 million should do it apparently. Would show some massive intent.

tajjuk Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Here is one for you.... Vlad Chiriches from Steau Bucharest. There could be one or two problems signing him as Barce, AC Milan and Chelsea are all rumoured to be interested, but none have followed up with a bid. €10 million should do it apparently. Would show some massive intent. Vlad is a good name for a defender however - http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1394210-ac-milan-transfer-rumors-who-is-rossoneri-target-vlad-chiriches The biggest flaws in Chriches' game are his aforementioned sub-par strength, and his difficulty in defending agile attacking players. While he doesn't lumber about the pitch, he's not quick enough to keep up with speedy forwards. He will need to bulk up if he wishes to cut it in Europe's better leagues, especially the Premier League which boasts the most physical brand of soccer in Europe. Think we already have two centre-backs who fit that description and maybe need a more physical defender.
Marsdinho Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 OK, if not Chrirches, then Dmytro Chygrynskiy, Nicolas N'Koulou, Fernandinho, Abdouaye Ba, Timm Klose
Marsdinho Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 intent was shown when we spent over £30m in the summer Yeah, but adding €10 million to that in Jan would show "massive" intent.
Window Cleaner Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 OK, if not Chrirches, then Dmytro Chygrynskiy, Nicolas N'Koulou, Fernandinho, Abdouaye Ba, Timm Klose Don't know anything about most of those but N'Koulou is rubbish.
Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Don't know anything about most of those but N'Koulou is rubbish. Plus Ba and Klose are strikers.
Thedelldays Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Yeah, but adding €10 million to that in Jan would show "massive" intent. intent on what..? going bust?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Guly would be a good signing for a league 1 or 2 side! Edited that for you
maysie Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 intent on what..? going bust? The worlds most dour man
saintrich Posted 12 December, 2012 Posted 12 December, 2012 Liverpool have a 35% sell on fee on Ince, so would re-coup some of the money if they signed him. Still poor business though if they were to buy him back.

Still poor business though if they were to buy him back. Poor business to sell him in the first place, but the sell on fee softens the blow a little. Good business to buy one of the most exciting young player's in the country.
SuperMikey Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 With Adam set to miss a significant chunk of the season now, do we act in the transfer window to bring somebody in or use the squad? Personally I would get a loan player in, like a youngster from a top European club.
skintsaint Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 What's Koumas upto these days? Normally he is on these type of threads Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Dig Dig Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Heitinga at Everton is not playing much at the moment. Been linked with us before and CDAJFUIMHOFFS
Mowgli Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 With Adam set to miss a significant chunk of the season now, do we act in the transfer window to bring somebody in or use the squad? Personally I would get a loan player in, like a youngster from a top European club. Why state your opinion as fact? NA has said he hopes Adam to be fit for Sunderland. I've seen no reports to suggest otherwise (unless you take the 'my mate bumped into him in the pub' and he openly shared his medical details in a conversation he knew would not go down well with his employers). Even a 2 month lay off only takes us to the end of the transfer window so clearly better to look within for a replacement
Saint Garrett Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 The only comments where Nigel has said he hopes to have him back for Sunday are those made after the Reading game before he'd been assessed. If the Vman has stated that it's 'f*cking bad but not season ending'...then a few months would probably be about right.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 What's Koumas upto these days? Normally he is on these type of threads Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2 Him, James Beattie and Surman are all looking at houses in Winchester right now.
Saint Charlie Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Him, James Beattie and Surman are all looking at houses in Winchester right now. They might find that bag with all Strachan's training wear in it.
Saint Charlie Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Sky reporting WBA prepared to sell Craig Dawson and Swansea are favourites for him. Decent player.
Saint Garrett Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 I'd be happy for us to look at him, (as I'm sure we are doing). Played for team GB at the Olympics I think, not that I watched any Olympic football.
SuperMikey Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Hasn't been able to force his way into the team at WBA. Would be a good signing imo but not the type of CB we need. Think we need a Jaidi type personally. And Mowgli, my info about Adam's injury lay-off came from the huge thread about it. VMAN has been spot on so far about everything.

Even a 2 month lay off only takes us to the end of the transfer window so clearly better to look within for a replacement I disagree, we're short of quality competition for the wide positions, and Lallana's untimely injury merely highlights that.

Think we need a Jaidi type personally. And Mowgli, my info about Adam's injury lay-off came from the huge thread about it. VMAN has been spot on so far about everything. Fair enough. I only remember his prediction on Ramirez being out for 6 weeks (came back in 4) and Strachan coming in as manager till the end of the season. But now you mention it, he was quite accurate on a couple of signings during close season. As for Dawson. Def a good signing. Would be hasppy with that!
Smirking_Saint Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Dawson, frimpong and will hughes and Ill be s happy man.
itchen_dan Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Umm... no thanks? Pretty sure we wouldn't be looking as far down as Barnsley for players? Esp when theres nowt wrong with Frazer as back up. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4693363/Southampton-and-Reading-set-for-Scott-Wiseman-war.html
Saint-Armstrong Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Dawson, frimpong and will hughes and Ill be s happy man. Frimpong?! WHY!
Charlie Wayman Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Come on lads, show a bit more imagination we don't want other people's misfits and journeymen we want top class young stars-in-the-making of around 22/23. Sterling for starters although one suspects Puncheon is better at the moment, oh and Walcott and I'm serious he'll be on a free soon.
Smirking_Saint Posted 13 December, 2012 Posted 13 December, 2012 Frimpong?! WHY! Looked decent for arsenal pre injury, looked good for wolves pre injury, will be a decent player IMHO, Arsenal happy to release him, will come cheap, and if it doesnt work out so what ? Easily good enough to deputise for cork and morgan and arguably better than anything we have in reserve for that position.
