Whitey Grandad Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 it would seem to make good sense, Mata won't come here though, way below his station. He didn't like the seats in the dugout apparently, he was wrestling with his after he was substituted yesterday.
View From The Top Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 yes please Oh yes. Never going to happen though.
View From The Top Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 If you say so then, personally I think he's vastly overated at left back not to mention his constant illness and injury problems. Chambers doesn't get injured, doesn't get ill every 5 minutes. He'll go for big money. The fact that both Chelsea and Utd want him ensures that.

pangy Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Lescott available on loan anyone ? ,I would have him till the end of the season for sure
S-Clarke Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Johnny Heitinga rejects WHU. Quite funny, a player with no game time what so ever rejects a chance to play at WHU. They are officially ****ed IMO.
Scummer Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Is Johnny Heitinga any good? Stronger than any of our current central defenders? http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/25568426
Window Cleaner Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Is Johnny Heitinga any good? Stronger than any of our current central defenders? http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/25568426 If he was any good he'd be playing at Everton now wouldn't he, think he's a bit of a whack job.
Saint_clark Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Same could be said for Lovren at Lyon. I quite like Heitinga but at his age doesn't really strike me as the kind of deal we'd do. For right here and now I'd say he's better than Fonte though.

For right here and now I'd say he's better than Fonte though. Lovren played at Lyon though, anyway Olympique Lyonnais should never ever be used as a point of reference for anything sane or sensible in football, they'll do anything to make money and that means playing crap from the youth teams over experienced players who cost a lot. They played Umiti last season and believe me he's one of the worst footballers you've ever seen.
Chez Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Is Johnny Heitinga any good? Stronger than any of our current central defenders? http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/25568426 He has looked too small and weak in the air every times I have seen him.
Window Cleaner Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 He has looked too small and weak in the air every times I have seen him. He's very lightweight for a CB really, not all that tall for today's standards either, I mean not Chris Perry small but not 6ft4 either. Makes up for his lack of physique with some awful animal tackles at times.
Saint Charlie Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Heitinga is ****e. We won't be signing anyone this window anyway so don't worry about us signing him!
Saint Billy Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 (edited) Our we ignoring that MP supposedly stated that we do not need any players in the January window or was that just bullsh*te? Edited 2 January, 2014 by Saint Billy
Window Cleaner Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 (edited) Our we ignoring that MP supposedly stated that we do not need any players in the January window or was that just b*ll****e well as we obviously do need players I think we can assume that he was being economic with the truth there. No-one ever needs any players in January, it's just what's said to try and get good deals on the cheap or good players on loan for 6 months, test and try before you buy. PSG's president said they didn't need any players this morning, probably whilst talking to Newcastle over Cabaye on another line. Mauricio said in any event he could find what he needs from the academy, which is obviously bollix because only a couple of weeks back he put 2 injured and virtually unplayable CBs on the bench instead of the 2 lads from the U21s. Everything that could be used from the academy for the first team at this time is already being used. Edited 2 January, 2014 by Window Cleaner
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Apparently Palace need to make one of the Jerome or Puncheon deals permanent (or end one of them early) as they can only have a maximum of two Premier League loanees at the club and they want Zaha on loan.
SB Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 ^ lol. Managers say a lot of things that aren't true, bless.
Window Cleaner Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Heitinga is ****e. We won't be signing anyone this window anyway so don't worry about us signing him! Going to Newcastle now apparently, they've gazumped West Ham. Still if it's a choice between Heitinga and Dummett to replace Coloccini for a few games you can understand it I suppose.

I'm not sure they can convert a season long loan into a permanent move until the loan has expired can they ?
DuncanRG Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 I could be misremembering completely but I think we may have done that with one of Guly and Hooiveld
Dig Dig Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 If we do sign a player in Jan, would most likely be a GK, IMHO of course.
LatvianTolix Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Sharp is back at Saints after his current loan deal finished with Reading. Would you prefer him to stay instead of Gallagher on the bench or loan him back somewhere?
CeeBee Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Would love to see us make a cheeky offer for Torres. Thought he was brilliant first half yesterday. Final third has been a less than fulfilling area for us this season and he might be just the man to bring us to life.

Would you prefer him to stay instead of Gallagher on the bench or loan him back somewhere? I think it is clear that Sharp has no future at the club. I just hope he can move on permanently as it is best for everyone.
Bewildered Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 According to Reading's OS, they are going to hold discussions with us next week to see what can be done about getting him back. http://www.readingfc.co.uk/news/article/sharp-020114-1271350.aspx

Viking Warrior Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 Has the window open ? If it has why hasn't there been any soccer transfer activity for any club so far or is it a case of waiting till the middle of the month ? I would have thought there were a few deals going on behind the scenes leading up to the window being opened. May Glasgow can let me know as he has his ear close to those at the top of the club
DuncanRG Posted 2 January, 2014 Posted 2 January, 2014 You can't get too much done before the window opens, and it normally takes a week or so for clubs to sound out who's available, etc.
Chez Posted 3 January, 2014 Posted 3 January, 2014 If we do sign a player in Jan, would most likely be a GK, IMHO of course. Can't see it. Boric not far off returning and Davis has looked solid. Gazza and Davis both have another year after this on their contracts. Both will have decent contracts, so will sit tight.

Might not even get a work permit, no track record good enough to support his claim.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 January, 2014 Author Posted 5 January, 2014 Harrison Reed might go out on loan
LatvianTolix Posted 5 January, 2014 Posted 5 January, 2014 Lacina Traore is really good. Was watching him playing week in week out on Russian satellite dish and was very impressed.

Glasgow_Saint Posted 6 January, 2014 Author Posted 6 January, 2014 Any other rumours? Am very bored. Four previous Saints targets are on the move - Yossi Benayoun [unattached - QPR] Neil Danns [Leicester - Bolton] Loan James Henry [Millwall - Wolves] Undisclosed Sylvan Ebanks-Blake [unattached - Ipswich]
DT Posted 6 January, 2014 Posted 6 January, 2014 Benayoun to QPR is Harry's recyclable brown envelope striking again. Everyone's a winner!
Window Cleaner Posted 6 January, 2014 Posted 6 January, 2014 Benayoun to QPR is Harry's recyclable brown envelope striking again. Everyone's a winner! hasn't he been at QPR for a while now ? Perhaps it was a short tem contract followed by another contract.
DT Posted 6 January, 2014 Posted 6 January, 2014 Was free agent after leaving Chelsea. Signed at QPR now, you're right Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Smirking_Saint Posted 6 January, 2014 Posted 6 January, 2014 The more I think about it the more a loan CB like Lescott would make sense. Ok, itll be costly but for the short term (till end of season) we will have a decent CB available for cover. This allows us to work on potential signings that will probably be easier to finalise at the end of the season.

This allows us to work on potential signings that will probably be easier to finalise at the end of the season. If Lescott wanted to be "cover" he wouldn't be looking for a move from City would he. I suppose we could pair him with Dejan and make Fonte the "cover" though. City are still in 4 competitions so I'd think they'd still need all of their players for a while.

Well, yeah, probably the wrong choice of words but should he become available and being aware of our issues at the back Id be inclined to make an offer.
SB Posted 6 January, 2014 Posted 6 January, 2014 6 days in and no movement anywhere, this thread isn't even a sticky.
Saint Garrett Posted 6 January, 2014 Posted 6 January, 2014 6 days in and no movement anywhere, this thread isn't even a sticky. What you on about? West Ham have signed an 18 yr old striker from Peterborough and a CB from L1!!!
