Matthew Le Tissier Posted 17 August, 2014 Posted 17 August, 2014 10 million. Over priced? You have to be kidding? He's worth every penny and more. With another centre half, some lightning pace. And Danny ings I feel we would be top 6 contenders. I would love to see belhadi also. But I can't see this happening. For the life of me I can't understand why we don't get ings No brainer for me. I'm Sure you will get the usual saying " all those goals were only in the championship" What a load of ******. He will score for fun. Buy him know before his price rockets

Very talented player but is 38 now and the Manager of Qatar so will be hard to lure him back. Ings price won't rocket because he is out of contract next summer. If anything, it will fall.

Saint Charlie Posted 17 August, 2014 Posted 17 August, 2014 It won't in January when he's proven he is banging them in It will because teams won't pay 10m when they can get him for a compensation fee 5 months later.

VectisSaint Posted 17 August, 2014 Posted 17 August, 2014 NOt overly excited by the prospect, and certainly not if its part of a deal for Morgan, which is how it sounds, but if we could get him and keep Morgs then it is probably a decent deal.

alpine_saint Posted 17 August, 2014 Posted 17 August, 2014 Already have one guy who runs down the side fast and loses it. Dont need another.

david in sweden Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 (edited) Did we not have A Townsend before and now he hates us ??? Just asking by the way we did .....Andy Townsend, 1984-88. Signed by Lawrie Mc Menemy as a left sided midfielder, for £35k from Weymouth. Just got going at first team level, when Lawrie Mac left, ....and then Andy broke a leg, but managed to come back to become a first team regular. Then 26, he didn't impress Chris Nicholl enough, and lost his place to the emerging Rob Wallace. (excellent youth player). Nicholl sold Andy to Norwich for £350K (seemed a good deal at the time) Aug 1988. In retrospect... not so good business. He improved out of sight. Moved to Chelsea in 1990 for £1.2 million. Later played for A.Villa, Middlesboro and West Brom and ended up with a tally of 650 games at League level. Also had a good international career and racked up 70 caps for Ireland). Agree he doesn't have much to say in a positive vein about Saints on those commentaries I've heard. (If he's still bitter after all this time - he has a problem). His career was much better after he left SFC. AND ....as for Andros Townsend ...I'm not so impressed ......and certainly not at that price. Edited 18 August, 2014 by david in sweden

EBS1980 Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 Had to laugh at a Spurs fan on twitter who said Saints get 25m for Lallana then only offer 10m for Townsend. Went on to say he is worth more as younger and better.

Went on to say he is worth more as younger and better. On the other hand, he is older and worse than Chambers so that knocks his price down before 16 million.

Saint_Tony Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 He's the type of player we don't have. A bit of a one trick pony but there's no reason he can't improve. Would happily take him, and it's now got to the point where I can't be bothered to moan about transfer fees

northam soul Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 I got the impression from Koemans post match interview when asked about Morgan that he could be off. He and the club have consistently been saying not for sale, when asked if he would still be here he now says I hope so. Maybe it will become part of the deal ?

Sour Mash Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 I'm not sure I'd want Townsend, bot of talent, but not worth £10m.

Colinjb Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 All academic chat from my view. Why would he come here? Even if Spurs did wish to eject him there would be more lucrative options.

Saint_Ash Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 Qpr want him now, 80k a week in his back pocket. Not going to compete with clubs who throw ridiculous wages at players.

Wade Garrett Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 Qpr want him now, 80k a week in his back pocket. Not going to compete with clubs who throw ridiculous wages at players. That's probably the going rate for an England player. Lallana's on more.

The9 Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 Would easily get into our team so is he really awful? If you don't rate someone then say. But the post loses any credibility when you say he isnt worth 1m and is "awful". Would he? I think he's massively overrated, he runs in straight lines throwing ineffective stepovers with a defender tracking and marshalling him all the way, then he tries to cross it and if he's lucky wins a corner. On the occasions where he cuts inside he usually hits crappy shots from distance and in 2013/14 scored once from 56 shots. Has an England career entirely based on one shot.

Killers Knee Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 Would prefer to spend the money on a starting RB and push Clyne further forward.

beavis17 Posted 18 August, 2014 Posted 18 August, 2014 Would prefer to spend the money on a starting RB and push Clyne further forward. That could be the plan if the Gonzalez rumours are true. They'd be able to interchange too.
