Toon Saint Posted 26 July, 2014 Share Posted 26 July, 2014 Not embarrassed but completely demoralised. Sale of Chambers makes no sense given how much we have already raked in and our supposed reluctance to countenance selling any of our youngsters. Why not sell Clyne if strength in depth in one position is considered to be such a luxury? Chambers will be a better player and worth so much more in 1-2 years time. How can Reed and Krueger possibly sell this to the fans? They must accept that this summer has been an abysmal failure of epic proportions on their part, and heads should roll.

I can understand selling 1/2 of our best players, but 6/7? We need to sort it out and very quickly, or the only way we're going is downwards.

So Saint Garrett you honestly believe that the club could have kept hold of the the 4 that have left for 2 of the biggest football clubs in the world and massive wage increases. Jesus some people are deluded on here. We are all ****ed to see good players leave but the majority of us understand there is nothing the club can do once a player wants to leave.....except get top dollar, and to be fair Saints have done that.

When has a club ever sold 6/7 of their best players?!? Even if we replace the with quality, it still takes time to become a TEAM. I love my club, absolutely love it.

Saint in Paradise Posted 26 July, 2014 Share Posted 26 July, 2014 The way events are turning out only pompey fans can think everything will be fine at Saints in the coming season. So as they are always telling others to F.O. I suggest you follow your own advice and F.O. and go and follow your real club down the M27. Must say that there are a lot more on here than I thought there was in the past. No true Saints fan can possibly think all will be as good as last year.

Leslie Charteris Posted 26 July, 2014 Share Posted 26 July, 2014 The start of the season is three weeks away, the close of the transfer window even more distant - why are so many ready to pass judgement now? Ronald Koeman has a proven history and there are a lot of games to come between now and next May. Sit back and enjoy the ride. Bill Shankly was wrong, football is not more important than life or death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not impressed We can only really assess at the end of the transfer window, players may have to leave to facilitate the fees of those coming in. The order things are done are not important its the end result, I'll hold the board accountable if at the end of August we haven't replaced any or all of the players.

I imagine he wants to go, we have Clyne to play that position, and a reported £16m is mental money. Here is a list of more expensive RB's: Daniel Alves - £23.5m Sergio Ramos - £22m and I can't think of anymore. Anyone want to add some for me?

pap Posted 26 July, 2014 Share Posted 26 July, 2014 I certainly haven't seen anyone laughing at us? I have seen people empathising with us though. The thread is a funnier joke than the club, tbh. Yes, we're all a little worried - but it's not like we sold these players for magic beans, or sold them out of desperation. The club got decent money for all of those players; any club coming back in knows that they'll have to pay serious cash to get at any of our valuable assets, in some cases more dough than the player is worth. The sales were all driven by players' wishes to go, and while I'm the kind of vengeful bastard that'd say "stick 'em in the reserves", long-term, that's not a great position for Saints either. If we're still lacking players when the season rolls around, then yeah, the hysteria might be justified. Let's wait for the punchline before crying with laughter tho', eh?

Guan has said were in for 4-5 players, RK has said one is close If in 3 weeks time we have Forster, Van Djik, Vlaar/DeVrij, Clasie , Ings and Redmond the whole story will be very different, plus of course the next crop of young lads If in that time we've sold Chambers, MS and others are being linked with no replacements than we really are in trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalek2003 Posted 26 July, 2014 Share Posted 26 July, 2014 If we go down I don't see it as a problem. If we have a good pot of cash we can buy young and up coming players in a lower division and then build a new and exciting team again. We can then sell them for a good profit, get relegated and start the rebuilding again. We can build our reputation on helping to get youngsters into first team football and will attract the best, knowing that we are happy to be a stepping stone for the bigger clubs. Financially we will remain stable and we may build good relations with the big 5 clubs. I call it the 'yoyo' strategy and to me it is worth supporting.
