speed demon Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 Oh my word. Why would wanyama want to leave for west ham? Why would anyone buy j rod this summer rather than wait until January to check he's fit, recovered, and returned to being the player he was before his injury. And why would saints sell about 90 millions worth of talent in one window? We don't need that level of money. Oh, and osvaldo may well want to move to juve full time, but I doubt they're as keen somehow. Us paying him £30k and them paying him £60k (roughly speaking) might have something to do with it.

Glasgow_Saint Posted 7 May, 2014 Author Share Posted 7 May, 2014 Oh my word. Why would wanyama want to leave for west ham? . Money!! If he wanted to win medals and league titles and play in the champions league - he would have stayed at Celtic. He joined us for money - he would leave if someone offered him more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarrettIvo Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 in todays Sun. Osvaldo wants to make move to Juventus Permanent Wanyama is hoping to quit, possibly to West Ham. they will follow Luke Shaw, Adam Lallana, Jay Rodriguez and Dejan Lovren out of the club. So, there you have it. Gospel. Good grief do people actually pay good money to read this crap? At West Ham all Big Vic would be doing would be watching the ball fly over his head from one side of the park to t'other as part of Fat Sammy's hoofball. I suppose for good enough money that could be enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearsy Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 Arsenal have just heard about a player called Morgan Schneiderlin (sp?) so they're gonna send scouts to watch him at his next game.

igsey Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 Morgan's French and good at football, of course he's on Arsenal's list to buy, like he has been for at least two years. Doesn't mean he's going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csh398 Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 For what it's worth, and merely based upon terrace gossip and my own best guess, here is what I think is likely to happen transfer-wise with our current staff over the summer and onwards: Lallana - Stay for the long-term (as long as the club does not slip or stagnate) Shaw - Stay for another year, then move on at the end of next season for mega-money (wouldn't surprise me at all though if his family are agitating for a move for him) Schneiderlin - Wouldn't surprise me if the one we do lose is Morgan. I fully expect him to be off Osvaldo - It's obvious that we will try and get rid over the summer, but expect he'll still be a Saints player in January before being flogged on the cheap Lovren - Hope he stays and expect him to start next season a saint, but wouldn't be surprised at all if some massive bids come in for him. I expect he'd go in January if we are not moving forward Ramirez - If no decent bids are received, I expect him to stay for another season in the hope that he can start regularly fulfilling his potential (I'd like to see his place in the squad taken by someone with real pace to be honest, which we don't have enough of) Pochettino - I've a sneaky feeling that a new contract has probably already been agreed, just not yet announced As previously mentioned, none of this is based on any inside knowledge. This is only my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igsey Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 If Lallana goes anywhere, it won't be until after the World Cup. If he plays half as well as he usually does in Brazil, he'll be one of the best players in the team and so his value will go up even more, I'd imagine.

Batman Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 Think if we let Adam leave, others will demand out. We need to stay firm and reject all bids like Liverpool did with Suarez. Suarez is on about 5x lallanas wage Let's be honest, he is open to a big move and why wouldn't he be Saying otherwise is being too romantic about it all. Clubs like saints would do well to keep a single player in the team of the year. Let alone both of them I think shaw will stay but Lallana comes across (to me) to be a bit vague is committing when asked. Just depends if the huge offer comes in from one of the big 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if the first thing these new guys do is sell our captain and England star, then it doesn't really set the tone does it....and anything/everything they've said is rendered utterly pointless. I'd love the club to show some ambition to really drive on in the summer. As a club, I don't think we've ever been in such a strong position to actually go places....so let's see if the owners recognise that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 Of course he would have been interested in the move, hence why Everton rejected the bids and moved to give him a better contract. Because of his age, I don't think clubs really wanted to pay above £15m....I think if a club had come in at £20m, then he'd have gone......he probably did have a valuation, but clubs weren't prepared to meet it. But fair play to Everton, they stood their ground and killed any further speculation by signing him up longer-term. The only problem with players like Lallana and Shaw is that they will attract big bids, and clubs would be prepared to pay a little more for them due to their age.....so we'll have to wait and see how strong the club can be.

Gemmel Posted 7 May, 2014 Share Posted 7 May, 2014 Turned down 2 bids and then offered him a tasty new 4-year deal. If Man U offered Shaw a 100k a week (Lets say) even if Katrina was prepared to match it, then we start having problems with the % to turnover rules on salary.... Well ok, one deal might not do that, but of course the other players would want the same treatment (Certainly the bigger players) which then makes it unviable....unless you have half the squad on pennies (Relatively) or half of the academy players and the others on multi million pound contracts......... Either way that is a recipe for disaster....... I should add that is my understanding of the % to turnover rules (Happy to be corrected). The point I am trying to make is that is just one of the considerations in all of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point I am trying to make is that is just one of the considerations in all of this. Absolutely, I don't think either player would warrant 100k a week yet though! But this situation is slightly different to Baines, as I suggested above - he's at an age where clubs probably aren't going to throw lots of cash at it, whereas our players are young...and anything they spend will be seen as a long-term investment, so they may be more prepared to meet a valuation (and I can assure you that all our players have valuations on their heads).
