Don't know if this has already been mentioned, but daily mail is reporting that we are interested in acquiring Costa Rican Joel Campbell on loan from arsenal.

 

That would be a result, I'd like to see two permanent forwards come in, but Campbell on loan until Rodriguez is fit could really help us out.

That would make a lot of sense if he's to step in for JRod until he's fit. Good player and one would fit our system too.

Would make a change from improving our players for the big clubs. We could just improve other clubs players directly for them as long as they pay us a reasonable fee for doing so.

... If you want someone with pedigree to compete with Targett, rather than Robertson who's only a bit older, then he's your man. Robertson sounds like a star for the future, though.

 

 

Their local paper now suggesting he'll be sold if anyone offers £3m. (Be good to buy Shaw's replacement for 10% of the fee received).

Robertson looks absolute quality from what I have seen of him. It would be great to have two promising youngsters slugging it out for a starting berth at LB, much like we do at RB.

£2-3m is a steal, get it done Les!

 

Do like the look of him, hard to judge in Scotland though, wonder if a.) he is much better than Targett and b.) if either are good enough right now to play every week in the PL.

 

Hard to know on both counts.

what can be made of Gazza and Redknapp 'bumping into each other' in Southampton ? :scared:

and anyone recognise where in Soton that is ? I can't make it out

Going by the yellow taxi in one of the photos and a couple of the shops I would have said that was in Bournemouth and not Southampton.

Don't think that's Southampton. Gazza lives in Boscombe. Redknapp is a c**k.

Saint_armstrong. Has a fair few links in the media though tbf, always speaks a fair game.

 

Dont know about the links to media..... Never any real news, just rehashing what´s said on twitter and written in media.

 

No offence, Saint-Armstrong.

It's a great twitter for a lazy man, he seems to put a lot of time into searching round the internet for news and then posts it all in one place for everyone to see.

At least Saint-Armstrong always posts where he gets news from rather than pretending he's found it himself unlike Alex Crook.

 

Definitely and I´m not slating him at all.

 

Just saying that his tweet about "Pelle and Tadic in a week and everyone will be happy etc" (not correctly quoted but basically that) dont mean anything for the case and should not be seen as itk info...

Yeah, I get you - that bit is just him hoping rather than fact.

Indeed. Connor's a great aggregator. I've no idea whether he has any sources.

My my there's a surprise. 5 of last season's top player have left or are leaving and we wonder why we can't sign good players. I mean what is the bloke thinking not wanting to play

alongside Jos,Gazzaniga and all those starlets from the academy.

Pretty obvious why Hernandez don't wanna join us, anyone thinking anything else might need a reality check.

And those reasons is the same why players like Lukaku, Micah Richards etc won't join us either.

I think we could have a good chance for players that need to start over with their careers like Rodwell, Sinclair...

 

Our choice now is either players from teams below us in the league (like we are stripped our best players from teams above us we could get the best players from teams below us). But at the moment even that could be hard cause that would mean inflated prices and atm we might not look as a good prospect for those players either considering what´s out in the papers. Players from the championship would be interested, but are they really good enough.....very few imo...

 

Then we´re left with looking for young upcoming players from leagues below PL, like the leagues in Holland, France, Belgium, Portugal and find those players that want to make a move up to a tougher league. Even if that means that they see us as a stepping stone so be it, we can get good money for those again then...

Not particularly disappointed about Hernandez thing as i feel he's a player who has gone backwards badly. It does highlight a worrying trend about trying to bring in players of sufficient quality given the exodus that is occurring and the effect on attraction of saints imo.
What trend has it highlighted?
