Toadhall Saint Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Yes, they did. Plenty on here questioned if he could step up. Too true! And not just from the championship to the prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Great news, but I wish he hadn't said anything like this. While it's nice to hear, we can hardly moan about other teams talking about deals for our players before they're complete, if we're doing exactly that ourselves! Not really a fair comparison. I took him to mean that the agreement is made with Feyenoord and it is only the final terms with the player that have to be settled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 He's in the UK, according to Feyernords manager (which is why he's not in their friendly). This is all but done, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowers-sfc Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 He is in southampton and was at the stadium today with RK before the press conference. Someone I know was picking up some signed stuff donated by the club for a charity event. First she nearly ran them over in the car park, then was with them in reception.

Viking Warrior Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 One good thing about buying tadic and pelle . Is that RK knows the players abilities and their personalities Where as a lot of the players other clubs buy don't have that insight . Hence the reason we get players throwing tantrums . Look at Chelsea'. And citeh That's why I think pelle and tadic will become big stars in the premiership for us . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 11 July, 2014 Share Posted 11 July, 2014 Seeing as though Kolo didn't join west ham, hopefully it's him West Ham are said to have pulled out as Nice wanted 9m for him (can't recall if £ or euros).

pap Posted 12 July, 2014 Share Posted 12 July, 2014 Deal is now all complete, welcome Pelle. That is spiffing news. Rickie at his boyhood club, plus it looks as if we've got a genuine replacement for much of what we lost when Lambert went. Everyone's got the same concerns. The Eredivisie is a lower quality league, Pelle himself has only recently started turning it on, etc. Still, think this is a shrewd move; not much danger of complacency - players moving from the Netherlands know they've got to step it up in the PL.

eelpie Posted 12 July, 2014 Share Posted 12 July, 2014 Pelle is going to rip apart Liverpool as he's fed by Tadic time and time again while Wanyama takes care of Lallana and Lovren. Lambert will get a few mins at the end where he accidentally scores for saints because he forgot which side he was on. This really is all too easy. Please let it happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB Fry Posted 12 July, 2014 Share Posted 12 July, 2014 It's all there for him to succeed I hope - a manager that believes in him and, hopefully decent supply from Tadic. Go on my son. There's only one Pelle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Charlie Posted 12 July, 2014 Share Posted 12 July, 2014 Lets hope he hits the ground running and keeps his confidence high with some early goals. May take time to adjust to pace of PL. Still need another striker, so will be interesting to see who that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coldridge Posted 12 July, 2014 Share Posted 12 July, 2014 Umm.....good footage on youtube of him going mental when Feyenoord played Twente.... Different kind of nutter to Osvaldo. Given the context I think this kind of reaction stems from him being fiercely competitive. I don't think Osvaldo particularly cared if we won or lost. Yes, it's potentially troublesome but it shows he has the drive and determination to win. There are good nuts and there are bad nuts. Pelle is a pistachio while Osvaldo is a testicle.
