Lallana's Left Peg Posted 12 June, 2013 Share Posted 12 June, 2013 I can't remember him saying that either. http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/football/premier-league/transfer-rumours/130123/new-southampton-boss-mauricio-pochettino-rules-out-signing-a However, Pochettino, speaking on Spanish radio show Esports Cope, said: “I'm not going to take any players from Espanyol. "I won't do anything that goes against the club. There are a lot of football players in the world. "I'm happy they're out of the relegation zone because ultimately I'm just another Espanyol fan.” That was said in January. But, of course, attitudes can change.

Not just attitudes, but also circumstances. Once Verdu is out of contract, or tells the club he is intent on leaving, he is no longer really their player.

Webby Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 People often say this but have we ever revealed signings along with a Kit?

Saint Garrett Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 Would be a great signing for a Championship club IMO. Is a handful, and he does work hard. It's more the fact that he doesn't quite have the technical ability for the Prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 Do Prado is waaaaay too inconsistent. *remembers those painful open goal misses* Seemed to have something on the manager, given how often he was picked.

SuperMikey Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 I think Guly will run out his deal with us rather than move, he's got another year on his contract and then he'll have plenty of suitors after him from all over the globe. Why move his quite young family to Leicester for 18 months when he can choose somewhere he really likes (like Brazil or Italy for example) this time next year?

pingwing Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 Reading To make it 3-0? Seems a bit harsh to hold that against him.... Guly is a good squad prem player to have about and a great addition to any champ team just for versatility in creating and scoring chances. Would be really pleased to see him go and get 40 odd games next season in the champ or to have him around for another year just as he's good back up and can do a good job when asked.

I wouldn't be fussed either way as well but he will almost certainly leave seeing as competition will be too much for him next year. When he does go, I hope some people will realise his contributions in L1 and Championship were important in getting us where we are today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Diamond Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 With regards to Guly, if there are better options coming in - and judging by who we've been linked with there are - there seems no point in keeping him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suomi Saint Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 Well, we haven't got anyone to replace Guly with yet, so best keep him. He's a good player who gets unfairly targeted by some Saints fans. I think the lack of any tweets from foreign lands is quite worrying - seems MP hasn't got the contacts we thought he has. Meanwhile, NA secured the services of a very good Wayne Bridge for free. Time for MP to deliver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MerceSaint28 Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 Villa have signed Okore ...really good signing that... they seem to be going after some really good young talent...quite jealous of that one...£4 mill on Okore is i predict going to be a lot better than £4 mill for our Norweigan... We were told all signings were going to be done by July 1st...looking unlikely now, barring a late flurry. I just hope we are going after quality young players who want to come to the club...not big names who just string the club along we need to get going on signings soon...the boys will be back in training in 2 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Charlie Posted 13 June, 2013 Share Posted 13 June, 2013 We weren't, ever, told that all our signings were going to be done by July 1st. Never, ever told that at any stage. Villa have done some early business that appears decent, but of these 4/5 players Im sure they won't all be superstars for them. Have some patience, the CLub have said we will bring in some quality so I am sure we will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
