Goatboy Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Agree about Richards (probably on astronomical wages too) and Caulker. Roswell is too injury prone for me and even if he was available on the cheap would be on massive wages. Could get someone like Gonalons or one of the Benders for not too much more and similar wages, or a prospect like Onazi or that young Bosnian who was quite good at the WC whose name currently eludes me.... I nearly put no thanks for Rodwell too. I just think if he could stay fit and didn't want silly money, he could be an asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View From The Top Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Caulker would be a sound buy, as would Davis/Davies from Swansea. I'd like to think we will still blend the best of British with top draw foreign players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EBS1980 Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Rodwell has only played 100 league games in 7 years. Any club that takes him would take him on loan IMO to see if he can actually play a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeBenali Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Ryan Bertrand? Solid but not spectacular whilst on loan at Villa last season, although with rumours of Liverpool being interested in him I imagine he's hanging on to see if he can be part of Brendan's "project" there - if not I'd take him ahead of Armero.

Polaroid Saint Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Looks like Jutkiewickz is signing for Burnley, Ings on his way out? What a woeful signing that is for Burnley. Perfect for Saints though? Danny can make his 'dream move' to the 'team he supported as a boy' (Saints). Meanwhile Luke can benefit from the Burnley production line and dramatically improve over a couple of seasons (say, becoming top scorer in the championship in the 2015/16 season... ...before making his 'dream move' to the 'team he supported as a boy' (Saints). Burnley really are gonna love us. Although I heard the deal was off? :-( (Come on Burnley, pull your finger out; we can't be expected to develop all of our players ourselves, ffs!)

ART Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Have to say Rupert Lowe had the right idea when it came to signing and keeping foreign players happy and ready to sign. Someone needs to remind Les that you sign them up in pairs i.e. they come in pairs. How many times did we bring along a foreign players boyfriend or mate. This is one for Saint Charlie to answer. Needs something to keep him occupied and his feet (aka opinions) on the ground By the way you miserable s o d s, it's my birthday today. Even Bearsy's forgotten.

Would love this really rate Honda. Maybe Maya has been in his ear about our great club I suppose Osvaldo and Honda are similar in some ways. They're both quality players who were poor in their short spells at new clubs. The difference is that Milan will be loaning him out to see if he can improve whereas we'd only loan Osvaldo if we can't get a more attractive offer from a permanent buyer. I'd rather get rid of Osvaldo permanently but Honda is a great player who would provide a bit more depth in the final third while Rodriguez is out.

CB Fry Posted 12 July, 2014 Share Posted 12 July, 2014 (edited) Us signing Honda doesn't look that ridiculous, does it? Probably not that likely but doesn't seem totally beyond the realms of possibility - he's had a terrible season in Italy so they may want rid, we could probably afford him and I imagine his wages wouldn't be that astronomical. I've not actually seen a credible link so is this even worth discussing? Doubtful. Edited 12 July, 2014 by CB Fry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughba Posted 12 July, 2014 Share Posted 12 July, 2014 Honda isn't good enough. Anyone who watches Serie A would understand.

I think Honda would play further forward than Morgan or Vic do though, more of an attacking midfielder role. Plus he's great from set-pieces, seen him slamming in free kicks for club & country for a few years now. Maybe the fact he's had a bad season in Italy will give him a point to prove in a league that's probably better suited to his qualities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
