Daniel Osvaldo - Signs 4 Year Deal

[saints_is_the_south]

Asked Espanyol fans for some views on Osvaldo and whether he caused problems there. Got a couple of replies.

 

@negrorevolution: @Lee_R1989 One day he wants to be the captain, one day he wants to be out for money. Looks like it's the same in Rome. #rcde #saintsfc

 

@negrorevolution: @Lee_R1989 Also asking for his salary when the club had no money to pay and the captains had an agreement with the owners. #rcde #saintsfc

 

@negrorevolution: @Lee_R1989 Also he didn't go to some trainings. So what it is happening with Rome fans and him? Money? #rcde #saintsfc (Then explained Osvaldo would be taking a substantial pay cut to join Saints)

 

@negrorevolution: @Lee_R1989 his attitue is painfull. although he is an outstanding player. Forza #rcde, forza #saintsfc and forza Poche!

 

@CircleCeltic: @Lee_R1989 not at all, but it was 'cause Osvaldo was feeling happy in Barcelona, more than Pochettino's merit, i think. Great player, anyway

 

@rcdeandtuits: @lee_r1989 He had a bad exit, but (almost) every #rcde supporter would like to have Osvaldo back #saintsfc

[beatlesaint]

Inevitable

 

Not just on a look around and see what you think type visit then ?

[saintnick]

"A bit" = hours or day(s)? Cheers

 

Not sure, be amazed if it was today, should no more tomorrow, t's to cross and all that

[yellow&blue]

When he finally signs, and reunites with Mauricio Pochettino, hopefully we can expect some more banter in this kind of vein:

 

 

Shame that I don't speak Spanish......

[Olallana]

They might want to rush it a bit perhaps to get him into training and meeting the team tomorrow morning...??

[Smirking_Saint]

Nice of you to come along after TheVman and Monk have said their bit.

This is very good news.

Not sure if it's been mentioned as only had a quick browse through the last few pages but would love to see Lambert playing the 'Totti' role that seemed to benefit Osvaldo so well at Roma

[saints_is_the_south]

@dimarzio: Accordo totale tra @OfficialASRoma e @SouthamptonFC per @danistone25: si aspetta solo la firma del giocatore, ci siamo. #calciomercato

 

Agreement between Saints and Roma. Missing only is his signature, and its done. We are there.

[itchen_dan]

dimarzio: Deal done between @OfficialASRoma and @SouthamptonFC for @danistone25: now, the clubs are waiting for his sign. #osvaldosaints

Does that mean Rickie, number 7, becomes the false 9 and Ossie, although probably c17, becomes the real 9? And what happens to our current real 9, JRod? Does he drop back, go wide or drop out and is he really not a number 9 at all even though he is number 9?

[Appy]

 

Haha good banter.

 

Should've let it run.

[Monk]

It's done, contract agreed and signed, just club documents to be stamped.

[Ed Rooney]

[Monk]

Final part of medical to be completed then final signatures on club documents.

Well, those papers are clearly about 4 days behind.

[Raging Bull]

Monk is ITK, if he's saying that we're 99% of the way there and all that's left is the signature then that's what's happening!

[GazzerMaBoy]
