Barry Sanchez Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Newspaper talk and one that I hope is not true. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/southampton-target-fabio-quagliarella-3224757
eurosaint Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 TBF, an Italian international striker for £2mil does not sound bad to me as long as he is not a nutcase who headbutts his team mates !! TB (equally) F, I've never heard of the geezer !
Crab Lungs Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Lol, why is he already being written off? Good footballer.
FloridaMarlin Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Think of the added income from shirt sales with the number of letters in his name.
Toadhall Saint Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Newspaper talk and one that I hope is not true. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/southampton-target-fabio-quagliarella-3224757 Why? Not seen anything much of him so just interested why you hope not?
SuperMikey Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Well if he's got four legs he's got to be more mobile than Rickie up top..
Viking Warrior Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 This regurgitated news . I saw this on the BBC gossip column last week
nta786 Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Lol, why is he already being written off? Good footballer. He is a average footballer in a slow league... As weve seen, not many Serie A players adapt to the Premier League (only the young players and even then- they don't all make it in the Prem!) Not only this, but he is 31. I'd rather invest in someone in their prime, not a has been who might not even make it.

Yes, it's not the standard is used to be but I bet aside from City, Chelsea or Arsenal, most of their "average" teams would run rings around a lot of teams in our league. Oh, and he's got 25 caps... not sure if you could call him "average"...
buctootim Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Its probably as a makeweight in a deal taking Osvaldo off our hands - so we should welcome him with open arms.
SNSUN Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 22 in scrabble 66 on a triple word score then. Makings of the sign of the devil there, should steer clear. :-)

Oh, and he's got 25 caps... not sure if you could call him "average"... I meant as in average now. I'm sure he was good in his prime. He might add experience, but apart from that, nothing more. He might be a better option than Rickie, but I'd rather invest in young players or players in their prime... As for those 25 caps, he had those around 2008/09... He has only made one international apperance in the last four years mate.
DrunkenSaint Posted 11 March, 2014 Posted 11 March, 2014 Why do we seem to be linking with players from Italy, our style suits the Spanish/South American leagues that's where we should be looking even if it's just paper talk.
Barry Sanchez Posted 11 March, 2014 Author Posted 11 March, 2014 Yes, it's not the standard is used to be but I bet aside from City, Chelsea or Arsenal, most of their "average" teams would run rings around a lot of teams in our league. Oh, and he's got 25 caps... not sure if you could call him "average"... What would you call him? A positive signing? Or an average one for a club as aspirational as ours?
DuncanRG Posted 12 March, 2014 Posted 12 March, 2014 Beware older players who are linked with loads of clubs in the press. Especially cheap players. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Batman Posted 12 March, 2014 Posted 12 March, 2014 What would you call him? A positive signing? Or an average one for a club as aspirational as ours? we should sign the 'amazing' Van Wolfs Winkel
Barry Sanchez Posted 12 March, 2014 Author Posted 12 March, 2014 we should sign the 'amazing' Van Wolfs Winkel Norwich's Osvaldo you mean?
Saints Ward Posted 13 March, 2014 Posted 13 March, 2014 i know saints are trying to expand and improve revenue streams.....but why are we in for a gas fracking firm?
Batman Posted 14 March, 2014 Posted 14 March, 2014 Norwich's Osvaldo you mean? But RvW was part of the amazing recruitment process at Norwich If only we could swap places
Downthe36 Posted 14 March, 2014 Posted 14 March, 2014 Norwich's Osvaldo you mean? Norwich's Osvaldo you mean? Strange Bazza, I thought you were a keen admirer of Van Wolfswinkel, and Quagliarella for that matter. The maestro of wummery strikes again. 30-07-2013 Barry Sanchez Full Member Join Date:Nov 2012 Location:Liverpool Posts:7,073 Norwich going for it, Where are our signings? Cortese better be prepared to spend on a striker or we shall suffer. Van Wolfswinkel, Hooper and now Quagliarella, good good signings, are they going for a top 4 spot instead of us?

Oh my God!! haha.. he changed his mind!?!?! can you imagine, hypothesising that a player might do well and then the player doesn't do well so you change your opinion!!! wow, he must feel so stupid right now! well done you on your efforts to seek out, copy and paste an old thread in the true spirit of one-upmanship. You sir are an inspiration to us all with your rock solid opinions and always-rightness… I would write more but I feel the need to stop and applaud you

This time last year Quagliarella would have been a rock solid signing for us apparently, however this year he wouldn't, without having kicked a ball in the league.
Greenridge Posted 14 March, 2014 Posted 14 March, 2014 hahahaha, nice one stanley! There's not many on here who get more things wrong
