Saint Charlie Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Could we be looking at Gary Alexander as backup for Rickie? Combative, experienced striker who could be worth a shout coming off the bench. Goal record of better than 1 in 4 across his career.
St.Patrik Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Hmmm Molde - was it Tessem who arrived from Molde to Saints? Or Lundekvam? They must for sure been involved in this if there is any truth in this?
Saint Charlie Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Hmmm Molde - was it Tessem who arrived from Molde to Saints? Or Lundekvam? They must for sure been involved in this if there is any truth in this? Why would Tessem or Claus be involved in Everton transfers?
St.Patrik Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 But he was spotted outside St.Marys - do keep up : )
SB Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Want a Remirez type rumour to keep me interested, zero rumours currently.

Combative, experienced striker who could be worth a shout coming off the bench. Goal record of better than 1 in 4 across his career. If you're serious, I would go and see a doctor.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 gutted Stoke defender Ryan Shawcross has agreed a new five-and-a-half-year contract, Potters manager Tony Pulis has confirmed.
richard Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Daniel Sturridge is the player on the January page of Chelsea's 2013 calendar. Demba Ba is the player on the January page of Newcastle's 2013 calendar. Just out of interest, who is in our January calendar photo?

SuperSAINT Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Simon Peach @SimonPeach #SaintsFC press conference has just finished. Adkins was more open than usual about the January transfer window. Will post comments soon.
SuperSAINT Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Nabil Hassan @NabilHassan79 #saintsfc, Fulham & Wigan are understood to have registered an interest in signing Yossi Benayoun from Chelsea. (via @bbcsport_david)
Appy Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 BBC Solent Sport @solentsport We understand #saintsfc have registered an interest in signing Chelsea winger Yossi Benayoun

Saint Charlie Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Suprised at Benayoun if thats true. Decent player but poor injury record and huge wages.
Saint Charlie Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Currently on 100k a week at Chelsea but would consider about 30k. At that kind of figure its a bit more likely.
MOSaint Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Benitez will probably want rid of Benayoun quite quickly as they don't have the best of relationships going back to their time at Liverpool http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/jul/11/rafa-benitez-yossi-benayoun-liverpool "Everyone asks me why I left Liverpool," said Benayoun. "There is only one reason – Rafa Benítez." The midfielder says the Spaniard, who left Liverpool to manage Internazionale, never treated him with respect he felt he deserved. "If I played well, I never felt he gave me credit," he told the News of the World. "When I scored, I still expected to be out of the team the next game. On two occasions early last season, against Fulham and Lyon, the fans booed when I was subbed. They thought I was playing well but Benítez told me he was surprised the fans booed because I was not good enough. "He tried to destroy my confidence. You can't treat a player like this and expect him to be happy."
DT Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Please no. Are we blind to signing decent defenders in favour of expensive midfielders?
Saint Charlie Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Please no. Are we blind to signing decent defenders in favour of expensive midfielders? Can we only sign one player per window? All we have done is "register an interest". Pretty clear we also need a wide midfielder as well as a Gk and CB.
Appy Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Please no. Are we blind to signing decent defenders in favour of expensive midfielders? Typical stupid comment from this forum who only think we can be looking at signing 1 player at once.
DT Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Typical stupid comment from this forum who only think we can be looking at signing 1 player at once. Oh okay then. Please not Benayoun because he's overpaid and overrated. But I do jolly hope that we are after a quality centre backs and perhaps a new keeper. There you go. Don't think I said we were only after him. Jeez.
Dig Dig Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Typical stupid comment from this forum who only think we can be looking at signing 1 player at once. Was trying to make this point on the Astori thread but some people will not budge from their assumption that we inexplicably tried really hard in getting certain signings over others.
pap Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Currently on 100k a week at Chelsea but would consider about 30k. At that kind of figure its a bit more likely. You beat me to it. The bloke has made fecktons at Chelsea. Really depends on what his priorities are.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 SAINTS TRANSFER CONFIRMED OUT: Sam Hoskins joins Stevenage on loan until the end of the season. - http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/hoskins-heads-to-stevenage-575354.aspx
the scud Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 On the goalkeeper situation is this Cluj goalkeeper,Mairo felgueiras any good? Had good reviews from likes of sir Alex and Cluj ready to sell him for few million.
Olallana Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Simon Peach @SimonPeach Nigel Adkins has confirmed #SaintsFC will NOT be bringing in a new goalkeeper this month.
SuperSAINT Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Simon Peach @SimonPeach Adkins "would like to think a couple of people will be coming" to #SaintsFC this month, adding: "We've got to keep looking at the future." Simon Peach @SimonPeach Adkins looking to offload squad players this month. Didn't name names but reckon Chaplow, Butterfield, Dickson, Barnard, Forte & De Ridder. Simon Peach @SimonPeach .@Luke_Shaw3 will not be leaving #SaintsFC. "Arsene did not speak to me on Tues," Adkins said. "This is best place for him at this point." Simon Peach @SimonPeach Lallana out of FA Cup match with #CFC, although Clyne could return. Ramirez has overcome a dead leg. Mayuka's last game before AFCON. Simon Peach @SimonPeach Adkins pledged to name a much stronger side against #CFC than that used in the Capital One Cup, saying: "I want to go and win the game."
Delboy Dave Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 S hit the bed, they must be more confident that me re: Gks
trousers Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Simon Peach @SimonPeach #SaintsFC tour group has just come into the press room. 'Are you the new Norwegian centre-back?' Simon Peach @SimonPeach I wouldn't necessarily read too much into the Norwegian centre-back comment, although Vergard Forren would be a nice addition. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11681/8378461/
Saint 76er Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Simon Peach @SimonPeach Nigel Adkins has confirmed #SaintsFC will NOT be bringing in a new goalkeeper this month. Yet there are so many rumours of us being in for Butland. However, this may mean that we might sign him now whilst the opportunity is there and then loan him back to Brum for the rest of the season. That way he gains more experience to prepare him for PL next season ...
trousers Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 http://www.espnstar.com/football/premier-league/news/detail/item915618/Adkins-keeping-faith-with-Saints-goalies/
Saint Garrett Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Certainly brave to not be in for a keeper....
Window Cleaner Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Yet there are so many rumours of us being in for Butland. However, this may mean that we might sign him now whilst the opportunity is there and then loan him back to Brum for the rest of the season. That way he gains more experience to prepare him for PL next season ... Doubt if we'll sign another GK for the future, we have Gazza. Boruc will do until then, hopefully in about 3 years.

hypochondriac Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 ****ing ridiculous. It's absolutely crazy. If true I have serious concerns about our transfer policy and if we get relegated then we will look back at this decision as a pivotal moment.
St Chalet Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 I actually don't think we need another goalkeeper. Another CB and winger and we have more than enough to stay up.
Saint Charlie Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 A lot depends how Boruc plays the next couple of matches IMO. He might prove to be decent once he gets a little run as on paper is a very competent and experienced goalie.
Matthew Le God Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 ****ing ridiculous. It's absolutely crazy. If true I have serious concerns about our transfer policy and if we get relegated then we will look back at this decision as a pivotal moment. As I said from the day he signed, although Boruc is clearly crazy I think given a run of games he should be more than good enough. Adkins agrees, so put some trust in Nigel and Artur.
Saint Stimp Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 I'd just point out that Adkins said we definitely weren't in for Yoshida, 2 days later he arrived. I wouldn't count on that goal keeper quote being 100% true.
Turkish Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 As I said from the day he signed, although Boruc is clearly crazy I think given a run of games he should be more than good enough. Adkins agrees, so put some trust in Nigel and Artur. What evidence do you have that he is 'clearly crazy'?
Saint Charlie Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 What evidence do you have that he is 'clearly crazy'? When I got back from the game and watched MOTD I noticed some bizarre twitching and facial expressions he makes which are a sign of craziness IMO.
Turkish Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 I'd just point out that Adkins said we definitely weren't in for Yoshida, 2 days later he arrived. I wouldn't count on that goal keeper quote being 100% true. Adkins doesn't lie. Remember how quick everyone was to claim this when he denied he was being forced to play a certain way. If Adkins says we aren't signing a keeper, we aren't signing a keeper. He doesn't lie.
The Kraken Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 As I said from the day he signed, although Boruc is clearly crazy I think given a run of games he should be more than good enough. Adkins agrees, so put some trust in Nigel and Artur. I wouldn't be so forthright. Nixon re: Adkins comments today and Butland. reluctantnicko: @gregvul Again. That would be odd considering a call and meeting that has gone on this week.
Turkish Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 When I got back from the game and watched MOTD I noticed some bizarre twitching and facial expressions he makes which are a sign of craziness IMO. Maybe he had an itchy nose and couldn't get to it because of his gloves.

Saint Garrett Posted 3 January, 2013 Posted 3 January, 2013 Maybe the call was unsuccessful, or maybe we're trying to scare Brum into lowering their price.
