Saint Garrett Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Stefan de Vrij is on the verge of completing his move to Lazio. Another 'target' bites the dust. Odd move, Lazio would seem a sideways step IMO.
buctootim Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Stefan de Vrij is on the verge of completing his move to Lazio. Another 'target' bites the dust. de Vrij was never a target imo.
Chez Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Stefan de Vrij is on the verge of completing his move to Lazio. Another 'target' bites the dust. was he ever a target? Virgil van Dijk seems to be the man Koeman is after if the news reports are accurate.
beavis17 Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 was he ever a target? Virgil van Dijk seems to be the man Koeman is after if the news reports are accurate. I'm just going by what the media have said, hence using 'target'.
beavis17 Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 What other confirmed targets have bitten the dust? Well none of us know the confirmed targets. If the media are to be believed then Javier Hernandez and Daryl Janmaat are two though. Just to clear things up I'm not a bed wetter, hence using 'target'.
ART Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 With Inter sending a delegation to St Mary's to negotiate Osvaldo's transfer tomorrow, with Reed is absent it must be Rodgers handing transfers. If that is the case Rodgers'll have sold even the caterers cutlery and china before Reed turns up. Maybe the Orange plate referred to Dutch China.
notnowcato Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Why wouldn't de Vrij be a "target"? Ticks the boxes.

Beckenham Saint Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Have they checked the moon?? Apparently we've got a new one now. Doesn't seem to have helped.
Lukin Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 I heard this too. Also that Clasie may be signing? I am guessing the personal terms are the two celtic players tho. As a Feyenoord fan it's fun to see how you guys rate Clasie. He's an awesome player, but in all fairness: I wouldn't buy him if I where you. Clasie mostly thinks offensive, has a decent technique and has great positional awareness. Unfortunatly he also has one huge weakness: he's quite small and lacks physique. I don't think he's build for the Premier League. If Feyenoord decides to sell him, he'd be better of with a Spanish team.

ART Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Apparently we've got a new one now. Doesn't seem to have helped. I only said the periods between the New Moon and Full Moon were the most auspicious and after the Full Moon don't hold out so well. Obviously Chambers and Lovren both folllow Artovision with them both completing their deals yesterday. Keep up to date with the Moon phases @ http://www.moongiant.com/Full_Moon_New_Moon_Calendar.php
Beckenham Saint Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Obviously Chambers and Lovren both folllow Artovision with them both completing their deals yesterday. [/url] Obviously. How silly of me.
Goatboy Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 I'm guessing its a reference to the all you can eat buffet and he brings a bigger plate? I though it was a lollipop at first!

If that is the case Rodgers'll have sold even the caterers cutlery and china before Reed turns up. Maybe the Orange plate referred to Dutch China. Dont really understand why Reed would be involved Rodgers is the CEO so I would expect him to be involved handling transfers especially Osvaldos as the club just want to get rid of him
Gemmel Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Mick Channon@Mick_Channon_TV · @Koeman1963 I'm on my way Ron LOL - Micky Channon coming out or retirement :)
syd_barrett_saint Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Odd move, Lazio would seem a sideways step IMO. Indeed, although the news only states that a fee has been agreed... open to gazumping you'd think. Come on Saints, get in there! http://www.vi.nl/nieuws/de-vrij-verlaat-feyenoord-voor-avontuur-bij-lazio.htm
Saint Garrett Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Heard a few rumours about Fer. Hope this isn't true, thought he was poor last season and far rather we just play JWP or Reed. I'd rather see Reed and JWP rather than Fer.
ART Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Happy Harry doesn't seem to be having any problems signing players at QPR. Not interested in FER.
SaintSteve Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 I'd rather see Reed and JWP rather than Fer. Except that Fer may score goals which differentiates him from either of JWP/Reed
Whitey Grandad Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Except that Fer may score goals which differentiates him from either of JWP/Reed Goals are good. I like goals

OldNick Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Liverpools transport has arrived at Southampton docks to collect their new signings
SuperSAINT Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Total Dutch Football @TotalDutchFB Finally some good news for #Feyenoord - young defender Terence Kongolo has extended his contract until 2017
Saint Billy Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Total Dutch Football @TotalDutchFB Finally some good news for #Feyenoord - young defender Terence Kongolo has extended his contract until 2017 That's ahh good news?
SuperSAINT Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 That's ahh good news? No, because we wanted (needed) him here!
beavis17 Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Anyone starting to lose faith with Guan's positive posts...?
Matthew Le God Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Except that Fer may score goals which differentiates him from either of JWP/Reed On what is that based? He only scored 3 last season. Without Lambert in the team when Ward-Prowse plays he'll be on direct free-kick duty unlike last season.
Bewildered Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Anyone starting to lose faith with Guan's positive posts...?
S-Clarke Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Anyone starting to lose faith with Guan's positive posts...? More worried by Monks latest post tbh. He's even lost faith!
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Anyone starting to lose faith with Guan's positive posts...? Never believed them in the first place. Guan is very helpful relaying what his source tells him but it soon emerged this summer when things didn't go to plan that something was a problem further up the chain and Guan's source may have known what the plans were but actually implementing them has gone to ****.
Trout-Tickler Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Unless Messi, Bale, Ronaldo, Muller, and Aguero sign before 31st August I think it's safe to say that this window has been disastrous.
Greenridge Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Love the LFC bidding £20 mil for Gary Ballance after his performance in Southampton gags on Twitter lol
SuperSAINT Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 If we sign Fer then we're clearly onto option #4 or #5 on our hit list.
Saint Matty 76 Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Could easily end up something like... Ramirez - Pelle - Tadic Davis/Cork - Wanyama - Fer/Clasie Not too bad in my opinion.
Trout-Tickler Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Why did we let Guly go...given the present squad would've been a good option off the bench.
Olallana Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Why did we let Guly go...given the present squad would've been a good option off the bench. Biggest mistake, we not only have a clueless board. We also have a glueless squad without him...
beavis17 Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 More worried by Monks latest post tbh. He's even lost faith! What did he say?!
S-Clarke Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 What did he say?! This... This is where business ruins football and I'm developing a huge dislike for the board. Calum Chambers will be first choice England CB in three years time.
ThaiSaint Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Liverpools transport has arrived at Southampton docks to collect their new signings Too late. The team already left on the next part of the pre-season tour...
Wiggles31 Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Could easily end up something like... Ramirez - Pelle - Tadic Davis/Cork - Wanyama - Fer/Clasie Not too bad in my opinion. Till one of the front 3 gets injured or hits poor form.
mulletsaint Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Saw this headline and article on news now earlier and thought at last! Maybe these are the two Erwin supposedly said were close, then I realised it was a couple of loans for Arsene's cast offs. No thanks. Southampton finally hit back with DOUBLE swoop after Liverpool, Man Utd and Arsenal raids www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/391371/Southampton-finally-hit-back-with-DOUBLE-swoop-after-Liverpool-Man-Utd-and-Arsenal-raids
FloatingbridgeSaint Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 You've got to feel sorry for the next signing thats unveiled for us. Anything other than genuine world class player is going to be met with a feeling of underwhelm plus a big dose of suspicion that they are only going to be here as a stepping stone after seeing how easy it is to force a move.
S-Clarke Posted 28 July, 2014 Posted 28 July, 2014 Would be good to see any rumour of substance right now, anything. Just something. Please. (and if we're going down the loan route after recouping £150m, then I've had it)
