We should buy whoever Leverkusen are planning to replace him with.

 

It did occur to me that the dippers might bid for him purely on the grounds that we are linked with him. ;) Cut out the middleman, so to speak.

Having watched him play last season he's less mobile than Lambert. Just saying...

 

We need a Turkish scouting report

Posted
In which games, on what dates and how many did he score? You should know SWF has form when it comes to "I have seen him play"

 

I was at Leverkusen v Hannover 96 (September 28th, 2013). He didn't score and was pretty useless against a poor Hannover side.

 

He looked clumsy and fell over a number of times. I'm not joking when I say he was less mobile than Lambert that day.

Josip Drmic is the guy they've already signed. 21 year old Swiss hotshot from Nuremburg FC. They paid £6m for him and want to sell Kiebling for £10m hmmm...

There an interview from a couple of days ago where he says hes going to stay and fight for his place. Cant always trust google translate though "The attacker, who was not nominated for the World Cup in Brazil, continues in the coming season on the offensive system under new coach Roger Schmidt: "It's good that we're fuc ked" he says.

But whatever Bayer might or might not be doing the bloke was not at Saints for a medical today because he is quite clearly at Leverkusen having his photy took as part of their media day. I'd like him but it won't happen. Why oh why do people make crap up on twitter without checking whether their assertions can instantly be disavowed by simple research. Nothing like a good rumour or two but make it believable lads please.

@HistFootball

I wanted Drmic is January, and then at the beginning of this Summer. Oh well.

not kept up to date with names mentioned on here but been told a player arriving late tonight from sire a.

 

Don't mean to sound pedantic but arriving as in landing in England or arriving as in signing and announcement?

Posted
Want to know why there's been no announcement today? Because he's decided to join Sunderland instead. 4 clubs in for Rodwell, we thought we'd got him but it would appear not.

 

If you say so then, doubt if we'd go to 10 million for him.

Why do you bother you skate prrrrick?

Posted
Yes that's it. Because the board is either incompetent or secretly trying to sell the club or take the maximum amount of money out of it but they still care enough about fan opinion to get a couple of panic buys in to keep us happy. Who would want to be involved with a club like Saints?

 

Why don't we chill and let the club do what it has to do and then judge? We don't know what is going on being the scenes. We've signed a couple of good players and the club says more are coming. I'm happy to accept that until it proves to be false. I can't influence it either way. I'm as impatient as the next person for news of signings but I don't feel that the club needs to tell me all the details until deals are done. The board may be lying , although that would make the signings they've already made a bit of a mystery, or they may be incompetent. But why not wait a little before rushing to judgement?

 

Far too sensible. You are obviously on the wrong site asking that question. Surely you can't resist joining the 24/7 feeding frenzy.

Taider was with Inter in the US up until yesterday, he's always been cited as having his medical visit on Tuesday, makes sense that he arrives this evening perhaps.

Get the impression that Inter won't sign Osvalso until we officially sign both of their players. All set for tomorrow.

I see their game, we're gonna get stuck with these two dead-wood mugs and then Inter back out of the Osvaldo deal. We should do same thing, yes Spurs you can have Morgan but first you have to take Hooiveld & G-Nigga on loan...

You lot must be awful in the run up to Christmas

 

Yeah it is. We get endless 'Santa should of got the presents in early', 'The elves are inept and a joke'. 'Santa is clearly going out of business because the quality of wrapping paper isn't what was hoped for'.

Santa sold all my favourite toys at Cash Convertors, spent 10% of the proceeds on crap that is less good than what I started with and trousered the rest. Worst Christmas Ever :(

Not sure when Cash Converters started paying over the odds for things. ..

Lower your sights guys. At the end of last season we would have had no trouble attracting players to take us to the next level BUT we would never have had the freedom of paying the wages commanded due in part to FFP.

 

Having lost our Manager who no longer believed in the dream, players who resolved to move on for the same reason, a team of Directors who lacked any credibility in football circles and a media frenzy we have gone backwards and must now compete with the lower clubs in the Premier.

 

It is going to be a hard season but not a disaster. We must try to build a reputation again. We have a Manager to do that. The group of players we have should help us avoid relegation. Just a few more additions in the underwhelmed but not that bad category should do it.

I've never actually been in a cash converters, but i imagine ur right. Maybe, in point of fact, he sold them to the rich kid next door for mark-up? I forget the details, it was a long time ago.

Still nothing on the two centre backs we are in dire need of then?

 

Or anyone to complement our one proper striker two weeks before the season?

Specifically, if we had kept last year's team together, we would have been limited to total wage increases of approximately 4 million pounds. That would include the wages of new players, and pay increases for Cork and other players signing new contracts. Quite clearly, that would not have been enough money to improve the team. In other words, players had to be sold for a profit for the team to progress. I discuss this on my blog:

Er... Yeah, that's all we could ever hope for.

When are you going to grow up you tiresome fool? I've know. Cestrian Saint since he was a kid. Went to Sweden with him for the preseason tour in '04 & the JPT final where we were sat in the row in front of fellow TSF member John Boy Saint.

Yes, he's an eternal pessimist but so are others on this forum so why don't you give the lad a break and take your bully boy attitude back to the playground.
