Victor Wanyama - Officially Signed

Not sure about spending £12.5mill on some one from the Scottish league, bit of a gamble.

 

2 seasons in the SPL one of which he performed amazingly in the champions league = a bit of a gamble?

 

I do agree it's a steep price to pay, but I doubt he'll be a flop considering the position he plays at the strong positive attributes he displays in his general game.

We will get this wrapped up before then no doubt as things such as VO2 testing and other pre season testing will need to be done on him before they go away. Expect announcement tonight or early tomorrow morning I think. SuperSonic did say yesterday that he heard NC saying something about "being there about 8" so maybe 8 o'clock tonight for an announcement at 9? Who knows?

 

NC was stating what time he was arriving for work this morning

Guys your average price for a player when you are in the prem is most likely to be excessive of true value. Carroll is a prem example. Just get used t it and stop moaning. You would all be moaning if we paid 2/3 mill for a player who t ironed or to be crap stating that we should have spent more money on a player.

 

Club spends little - people moan, club spends big - poeple moan.

I know all of this really :p

 

I just like the idea of getting a good deal for a player, I am hopeful the £12.5m on him will pay off, it's just a big transfer fee, not something we're really used to...

He might be a great player I don't know enough about him to judge. My only concern is that the Scottish league is garbage, Neil McCann looked good at that level. As for the CL, buying a player on the back of a handful of games at any level is a bit of a gamble.

 

I'm not moaning but we did spend alot last season on average players, hope they get it right this time.

Wanyama to be announced tomorrow, allowing Shaw to sign a new deal on Friday and round off the working week by capitalising on the feel-good factor...

 

...I like it.

He better sign now, just purchased my first ever season ticket after 47 years of following Saints. Gulp.

I've been told (from an employee of the club) that the deal has progressed but not quite signed and sealed. Hopeful it'll be sorted in the next week ready to go on the pre season tour.

 

As said last week, all on track to be done, everything agreed just medical to go then signing the contract baring any medical issues.

 

Working hard on other deals but nothing close yet.
