Window Cleaner Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 I'm guessing Spurs fans are now taking to Twitter in their droves to exclaim how they've dodged a bullet... Soldado wasn't great this afty, no doubt still adapting though.
Saint_Tony Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Amazing news, didn't believe this was possible just a few days ago. Welcome Pablo! Looks like the MP connection was the deal breaker. What a transfer window, still wouldn't mind another centre back. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2
CB Fry Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. Well done to everyone involved for making this happen.
itchen_dan Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 tancredipalmeri: That Osvaldo official confirmation didn't take long to come... FabRomano21: Pablo Daniel #Osvaldo is new #Southampton player. Great, really great player for #SaintsFC
pangy Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Gutted for Glasgow who lumped a £100 at 18/1 he would join spurs
Window Cleaner Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Lets hope he room mates with boruc. Sounds like they're as bonkers as each other. not known as Khal Drogo for nothing I'd guess
S-Clarke Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 What a transfer window. No complaints what so ever.
Badger Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Fantastic. It appears Pochettino did a lot to help get him in. Exactly what he was installed at Saints for. Brilliant stuff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free Brilliant signing on the face of it, just hope Poch can sort his head out to ensure he is focussed and motivated for the cause and the project. If he does that then he will certainly have earnt his cash, and we will have one hell of a player at our disposal. The alternative prospect is that we've bought a loose cannon and a headcase. But at the moment he's our "loose cannon" so looking forward to him taking it out on Di Canio on Saturday.
Olallana Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Gutted for Glasgow who lumped a £100 at 18/1 he would join spurs
70's Mike Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 never heard of him but if MC wants him good enough for me, team selection gets more interesting by the week
saintadjg Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 He signs who he wants ,he signs who he wants Mr Cortese ,He signs who he wants. All hail The Don
Smirking_Saint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Soldado wasn't great this afty, no doubt still adapting though. He isnt really a lead the line man though, quality poacher nonetheless. Interesting to see what they do after Bale
Saint Martini Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Magnificant signing, just wondering how he will fit in in our team. Change of system? What happens with Lambert? Where does this leave Ramirez?
CWD Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 I said weeks back at the start of the window that my ideal signing would be either Soldado or Osvaldo. Can't believe it actually happened. Can't believe what's happening to our club.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Gutted for Glasgow who lumped a £100 at 18/1 he would join spurs They are still confident, im hoping they are wrong. Vman's post suggests we could be close Got 18/1 on Spurs & 9/1 on Saints earlier in summer so win/win. Would obviouly prefer him to join Saints even if it does cost me a few £'s Dont worry about poor Glasgow :) :)
dubai_phil Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 F\/ck Me. Eat that Gooners. #titledreamstillalive
Smirking_Saint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Magnificant signing, just wondering how he will fit in in our team. Change of system? What happens with Lambert? Where does this leave Ramirez? Options I suppose, Lambert can play up top or No 10, Ramirez wide or No 10. I even think we will see the best of Ramirez with this signing
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 WOW!! If anyone complains about this transfer window now they should be put to death
Wiggles31 Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Just insane! Amazing! What a week we've had! Buzzing for this season now! Can't wait to see him machine gunning the Northam after a world class goal! COYS!!
Smirking_Saint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Why the **** didnt Arsenal go for him? I wonder how many times thats been said this window
max_saints Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 I will stick my neck out and say right now.............. He will NOT join us I've always believed in your itk-ness ): fantastic transfer window, strengthened through the spine of the team and all top top class signings. broken our transfer record 4 times in two seasons? very excited for our future!
aintforever Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Great signing, will be ideal backup for Guly
NickG Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 The clincher...to play for MP. Thought read on here no decent players would sign for him? exciting season ahead
Viking Warrior Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Brilliant news . Im celebrating in Clarkes in Dundee . I'm tempted to ask the folk group to sing the woolston ferry for me
dubai_phil Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 This thread will be complete once we see a post from the bumpy part of Central Europe
itchen_dan Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 We should know the ins and outs of the deal tomorrow SimonPeach: Osvaldo moves to #SaintsFC for an undisclosed fee, but Roma will announce the terms of the deal to the stock exchange tomorrow.
sammysaint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Options I suppose, Lambert can play up top or No 10, Ramirez wide or No 10. I even think we will see the best of Ramirez with this signing I think JWP and Mayuka will be loaned out if a club will take them, if they both leave that would allow Osvaldo to fit in and still keep Lambo Gaston Jay Rod happy.

SuperSAINT Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 What a window. Wasn't Nicola described as naive in the transfer market a couple of months ago?
skintsaint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23750101
Glasgow_Saint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 What a window. Wasn't Nicola described as naive in the transfer market a couple of months ago? Believe so......egg on faces lol
Jimmy_D Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 What a signing that is for us! Can't wait to see him and Lambert up front... This season could be one of the best I've ever seen!
bender Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Just checked his stats. Scores more than a goal every 2 games. On the fringes of the Italian team. Kind of like a Andy Carroll with a better goal count.
S-Clarke Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Kind of like a Andy Carroll with a better goal count. And actual technical ability.
trousers Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 @SouthamptonFC: You will be able to watch @danistone25's presentation live on our official @YouTube channel tomorrow afternoon. #WelcomeOsvaldo #saintsfc
sydney_saint Posted 18 August, 2013 Posted 18 August, 2013 Just exploded. Sensible decision Mr Cortese to announce this on a Sunday night. I could have being in trouble if this was announced at work.
