Window Cleaner Posted 24 January, 2014 Share Posted 24 January, 2014 Wouldn't Inter and their fans be more be likely to want Osvaldo over Vucinic and that could be the reason Inter pulled the plug on Vucinic after events at Saints this week? I think Inter thought that there was a vast imbalance in the respective values of Guarin and Vucinic and wanted about 6 million to be added to weight the deal.

SuperMikey Posted 24 January, 2014 Share Posted 24 January, 2014 If we get rid of Osvaldo in this window, another striker is an absolute must. Wouldn't mind going for Yacob either for that price - Davis and JWP don't convince me in a deeper role and we've missed Wanyama's defensive solidity since he's been out. One of WBA's best performers last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suhari Posted 24 January, 2014 Share Posted 24 January, 2014 Sky Sources understand Sunderland have made an enquiry to signValencia's Argentina midfielder Ever Banega. Absolutely a player we should go for; would immediately improve the starting 11. Essentially he's Steven D, but with way more skill and creativity, and scores goals. If he goes to another prem side I will be mightily ****ed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david in sweden Posted 24 January, 2014 Share Posted 24 January, 2014 I think we do. Still need GK cover/someone to push Boruc, CB to cover for injuries/push Lovren and Fonte-the-bruised, LB to hit the ground running for when Shaw leaves (inevitably), and a new striker, because Rickie is well past his best/well into his sulky period/off to West Ham, Osvaldo is a useless loon, and Rodriguez needs to be more clinical/stop fluffling one on ones.

Source: http://www.sportsdirectnews.com/southampton-fc-transfer-news/39058-saints-set-for-baggies-bid.php#.UuKsrbTFLIW Weird to be linked with him, and not so long ago Wanyama's brother (although that's slightly more understandable.) Pretty much every other position on the pitch needs strengthening before central midfield. (Except right back.) Having said that, at £3million it wouldn't be a bad deal, but Cork has already played very well since Wanyama's been out, and with Morgan and Wanyama first choice, Davis and JWP able to play well there and allowing for Reed's progress to the first team, I can't see why we'd need another CM.

Window Cleaner Posted 25 January, 2014 Share Posted 25 January, 2014 I see that West Ham are reported to be closing in on a couple of Italians, a striker and a midfielder I think.
