I am expecting two signings by the weekend, a striker and a wing man... One may well be a lone deal

 

Do you think we will sign a defender before the end of the window? If it's a winger my guess would be scott sinclair.

He would certainly be a signing Id be interested in, or even Ince. Isgrove is a good little winger though, keep an eye on him.

 

CB, I dont think we are desperate, but yeah it would put my mind at rest. I like Lovren snd Yoshi but if you get anywhere near fielding Jos again we might be in trouble.

Didn't discuss defenders with my contact, so I don't know, i think you may be right though, perhaps SS but maybe another option.

Love the method behind our targets and signings to be honest, looking back on last year you can see what we're doing. Steady, and structured. No rush jobs.

 

Last year was all about buying bright young talent who have the potential to be international and top flight players.

 

This year it's all about buying proven top level, international and European class players.

 

Next year.........?

Monk has said the same thing

 

OK I see your point, but to be honest I don't know any of you, including monk, just sharing info. Let's just all bask in the glory of a massive signing. Coyr

I was actually giving your info credence, not questioning it!

If it's a loan, i'd expect it to be someone like Sinclair. As long as whoever it is, it's a loan with an option to buy, I'll be happy.

Wonder what he's on at City?

 

Bet he's on something ridiculous. The City/Sinclair thing is like a bigger version of the Saints/Sharp scenario.

It was clear what City were doing when they decided to splash the $$$ on Rodwell and Sinclair. I don't think they had the intention of playing either regularly.

 

It was just so they could keep the FA Happy with their English player allocation - I think they panicked.

Lescott said earlier in the summer that he'd take a pay cut to go somewhere else and play regular first team football. I would hope that Sinclair would do something as sensible too.

Any idea who it is? Domestic or international player? Presumably if it's a loan it would be a youngster?

 

Not really specific, may happen before the weekend but may not happen at all.

Rodwells a decent player, he will play, Sinclair ? Yeah your right I suspect, same as signing Richard Wright

SimonPeach: Sounds like #SaintsFC's business may be done for the summer. Think one or two squad players could do with coming in. Hey-ho, what do I know?

 

Thank **** Peach knows little more than you and I.

That's why they signed Richard Wright,never any intention of playing him but will take up a allocation of English player

Everton have rejected £28m joint bid from Manchester United for Marouane Fellaini and Leighton Baines #SSN

 

Think Utd will probably get their men in the end, and then we'll have a real chance of finishing about Everton this year.

First thing that came to my mind when I saw that news reported this morning too. Been a lot of talk about top 8 being a realistic aim, but I think 7th is up for grabs this season too. Everton going through a transitional period with a change in manager, so if they were to lose arguably their 2 best players that would definitely be good news for the likes of ourselves, Swansea, West Ham...etc

Man U having a £28 mill bid for Fellaini smells of desperation imo

 

They clearly wanted Fabregas and they have no chance of getting him,so Fellaini is 2nd choice but considering he has a buyout clause for £23mill that expired July 31st shows they are going to panic buy and get there pants pulled down at the same time

 

 

EDIT. just seen its a joint bid for both LOL,Moyes would be furious if when Everton manager SAF put in a bid for them,you wil need to stick at least another £15-20 mill on that I reckon

Personally hope we're done. Thought 3 players would be enough and didn't expect the level we've brought in. Good set of players, good spirit, wouldn't disrupt it now, just see how it's going in January.

 

UNLESS a brilliant CB to partner Lovren becomes available.

 

Suppose we could slap in a cheeky bid for Baines, that'd piss Moyes off

Rumour Everton will pay 15m for McCarthy if they lose Fellaini. He looked alright, but that's a lot and ANOTHER Wigan player. Everton would be severely weakened, Baines and Fellaini really hold that team together.

 

imagine us losing morgan and shaw in one window

:scared:

That is why people have renamed them Wigaton,if McCarthy is worth £15m off the back of a half decent season what are the likes of Spider/Cork worth??

:scared: Singularly, I'd rather lose Shaw than Morgan, as Morgan's the heartbeat and even with rose tinted specs on, Shaw is too good for us. However losing Morgan would leave us Wanyama and Cork, which is OK, whereas losing Shaw would leave us with Fox.

 

OK, I'm glad we're keeping them both. I can't imagine what Everton fans would feel if they lost both. They'd be extremely weakened and would go on to be just another mid-table team.

I think we're pretty much sorted personally. In midfield we've already got to chose between Morgan, Wanyama and Cork. Up front it's pick 4 from Lambert, Ossie, JRod, Gaston, Lallana, Punch, JWP, Davis and Guly (wouldn't be surprised if the latter left).

 

Maybe I'd take a LB if Fox left but I doubt we will find someone better willing to sit on the bench and watch Shaw. I'm happy with our CBs too, although I would take another if Jos or Jose left.

Be interesting to see if Micah Richards plays for City tonight. Would love to see him come in. I know, I know I'm being greedy, but after the last three transfers anything is possible!

Not sure where he'd play?

 

He's a right back for me, we're well and truly covered there.

#Saintsfc defender Jos Hooiveld is a target for Derby & Huddersfield.

 

 

Yes it´s twitter but actually this guy was very early and spot on regarding what happened in the Osvaldo story with us and Spurs and that he never turned us down even though Daily Star and others ran that story...

Might (and I say might) have legs...

wouldn't united be better off signing Shaw and Morgan?

 

He's clearly trying to sign them as he's worked with them in the past.

 

They'd be a cheaper option as well.

 

Can't imagine us selling Shaw for anything short of £20m, and same goes for Morgan.

Arsenal in for Newcastle's Cabaye! 2 clubs in trouble. Bid only 10 million. Watch Geordies explode. That's a terrible offer from Arsenal. Do they actually want to sign anyone?
