Window Cleaner Posted 10 January, 2013 Posted 10 January, 2013 Oh, no hadn't seen him this season. Had looked decent when i'd seen him before. Just like M'Vila he's either burnt out already or is just dreaming of his next big pay deal. It's a recurrrent problem, they hit the headlines at ridiculously young ages on the back of one or 2 good performances and then they just slide downhill. M'Vila is available for 8 million € and the best he's getting is from QPR, a year ago Real and the Arse were falling over themselves for him. Like that kid Varaane, transferred to Real reserves at 18, since then downhill.
Saint Garrett Posted 10 January, 2013 Posted 10 January, 2013 Max Gradel anyone? For what.....waterboy?
tajjuk Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Colocinni leaving Newcastle - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20985928 Trouble for them and they might start looking for centre backs. They have just 2 wins from 17 game in all competitions since October.

Window Cleaner Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Newcastle are in complete meltdown. They're in the mix, no doubt about it. They'll be OK once they get Cabaye back and get rid of Tiote to the ACON
pingwing Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 A funny one Reading are about to sign Steven Kelly, spend £2.5m on a RB over the summer that haas played 6 times and replace him with a RB that has managed about 16 appearances a season in the last 3 and a half years at Fulham... (and pay another £2.5m for the privilege)
Saint Garrett Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Yer, how come they havent really played Gunter? Remember people saying that Gunter was a better option than Clyne in the summer...
Window Cleaner Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 (edited) Yer, how come they havent really played Gunter? Remember people saying that Gunter was a better option than Clyne in the summer... Second time that's happened to Gunter, he must have a technical flaw which doesn't show up too much in the NPC but becomes evident when the level gets higher in the PL. Same as a couple of our now fringe players really. If your manager has no PL experience it doesn't help. Edited 11 January, 2013 by Window Cleaner
ottery st mary Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 We had a Manager who signed Ali Dia and played him once and then off loaded him... I think Graham had bucket loads of experience..... or was it a gamble.
SuperSAINT Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 French football writer Matt Spiro on Twitter: "Toulouse confirm Moussa Sissoko can leave for €3.5m (contract up in summer). Hasn't lived up to 'new Essien' tag, but that's a real bargain." http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11678/8391020/Moussa-Sissoko-will-decide-in-the-summer-whether-to-leave-Toulouse
Appy Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Yer, how come they havent really played Gunter? Remember people saying that Gunter was a better option than Clyne in the summer... Because Gunter is toilet.

Don't know about Gunter but McDermott has his favourites which aren't necessarily tied to merit. Guthrie has been frozen out, even though many Reading fans think he's their best CM.

SNSUN Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Because Gunter is toilet. I get the feeling Gunter in the Premier League is like had we been relying on Harding at left back this season. Clyne and Shaw - we couldn't have asked for better full backs, even if their cover is suspect. Paul Robinson isn't playing for Blackburn tonight. Is there something more in that I wonder?!?

Highlights that most of Readings fans either have no clue about good players at all or have some of the most unbelievably bad midfielders to make Guthrie look good...

Clyne and Shaw - we couldn't have asked for better full backs, even if their cover is suspect. Paul Robinson isn't playing for Blackburn tonight. Is there something more in that I wonder?!? You mean Harding at RB Can only hope the Paul Robinson thing is good for us, wouldn't say no to him right now at all!
Saint Garrett Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Hasn't Robinson been 2nd choice for a few months now ?!
SNSUN Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Hasn't Robinson been 2nd choice for a few months now ?! Not sure, but he's not even on the bench unless I mislooked. Unless he's injured. I think I read Forest are interested in him but I thought he'd go to a club a bit higher up...
Saint Garrett Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Might go to Forest, rumour has it Camp is going to Reading ?
SNSUN Posted 11 January, 2013 Posted 11 January, 2013 Might go to Forest, rumour has it Camp is going to Reading ? Reading are preparing for nPC life well then. :-)

SuperMikey Posted 12 January, 2013 Posted 12 January, 2013 Sunderland are signing Mo Sissokho. Good signing for them.
CWD Posted 12 January, 2013 Posted 12 January, 2013 'Good news for Soton, AC Milan are in talks with Federico Peluso a promising CB, they only want one of Peluso/ Astori. #saintsfc' Who tweeted that?
Saint Charlie Posted 12 January, 2013 Posted 12 January, 2013 Who tweeted that? An Agent ITK wannabe unfortunately. All the proper Journalists maintain there is an interest of some kind in Astori from Milan.

Wade Garrett Posted 12 January, 2013 Posted 12 January, 2013 An Agent ITK wannabe unfortunately. All the proper Journalists maintain there is an interest of some kind in Astori from Milan. Judgement call needed on this at some point in the window then. We might get away with it at Villa, but not having a new centre half in for the Everton game would be suicidal.

for_heaven's_Saint Posted 13 January, 2013 Posted 13 January, 2013 Odemwingie would be a good signing for QPR.
Saint Charlie Posted 13 January, 2013 Posted 13 January, 2013 Odemwingie would be a good signing for QPR. Good player. Doesnt seem to be a first XI player for WBA and is 31 so they might let him go for a fair price, 3m ish?
Bentley Posted 13 January, 2013 Posted 13 January, 2013 Apparently we are chasing midfielder William Vainqueur http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4740838/Newcastle-and-Saints-eye-Standard-Lieges-William-Vainqueur.html

latter day saint Posted 13 January, 2013 Posted 13 January, 2013 Thats 20+ player links in past 10 days well surely even us with our flawed transfer stratergy can sign at least 1 or 2 of them ?
Shanghai Saint Posted 14 January, 2013 Posted 14 January, 2013 No link with the player but as he's available would love to get Royston Drenthe. A left back left winger that went to Real Madrid back in the day for Euros 14 Million. Thought he showed great speed and talent at Everton last year and at only 25 has plenty of years left in the tank.

The same royston drenthe that failed to turn up for training on time at everton persistently and was sacked by everton for breach of discipline. No thanks

Shanghai Saint Posted 14 January, 2013 Posted 14 January, 2013 Punch was hardly a model citizen but he's turned out alright. The guy has talent so let Nige work his magic.
