hypochondriac Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 Heard anything about Jay Rod and his desire to play for saints rather than Spurs? Shame about Cork if so, would be a mistake not to sign him up IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammysaint Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 I like S.Davis and Cork, but one has to go if he wants Classie, But Personally feel under Koeman, Cork has been the better player, also slightly younger, so hopefully we re sign him, specially if we get uefa cup, we need a good squad depth, Victor and Cork as our back CMs would be quality.

Bad Wolf Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 I don't get the Cork situation. He's been nothing but solid for us yet that's 3 different Saints managers that just see him as a squad player. If I had to choose which one to keep, I'd rather J-Rod left for a healthy fee than Cork walked for nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igsey Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 (edited) I would have thought Cork is one of those players that even if the manager doesn't rate him massively well, you keep him signed up because the fans all love him? Besides, he'll be a great replacement up front should Pelle get injured this season! EDIT: But cheers for the info Monk, greatly appreciated.

VectisSaint Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 I still feel there's a chance for Mayuka to be an effective player for us. Being written off far too early by most. He looks a very different player than the one we saw before who looked very lightweight. He has definitely bulked up over the last year and looks much more physically able to cope with the PL than before. He may yet turn out to be a good player, depite how he has looked in the past.

Unbelievable Jeff Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 Excellent, thanks for the update Monk. I think getting Alderweireld and Bertrand done will leave us with one, maybe two players to bring in next Summer, a back up striker and back up keeper. I don't think we'd be able to improve on any other player at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 Yeah, I think if Tadic even vaguely keeps up his form he'll be almost impossible to keep. Schneiderlin probably has an agreement to leave in the summer for a CL club. If we lost Morgan I'd take Clasie and keeping Cork, we'd still have very good options there and with JWP and Reed coming through. Tadic for sure the way he is playing Liverpool will want him to replace Lallana. Morgan will want European football and we will want to sell him before his contract runs to low.

angelman Posted 29 October, 2014 Share Posted 29 October, 2014 The fact that no contract has come seems obvious that Cork's future is not certain. While we might well sign another player, I would actually prefer to have English even if it wasn't quite as good. But...if it meant Europe then maybe I could stow my thoughts.

If we genuinely have European aspirations though the league we still need the 5 players we needed in January to be a legitimate season-long threat. Starters all over the pitch and bench please, and none of this "making do" nonsense. Every player should be able to slot in without any kind of drop in quality.

Starters all over the pitch and bench please, and none of this "making do" nonsense. Every player should be able to slot in without any kind of drop in quality. We could never really do that ... does not mean we might not challenge for European places, just be doing it 'the Southampton way'. Targett had looked assured when called upon, the academy keeps on producing decent players ... rather see us, where possible, give them the chance to push into the first team rather than constantly seeking external recruitments.

Probably wouldn't be playing in the 18s and with a scholarship at 15 without it though so have to doff your cap a little. Always been highly rated by the club though.
