if we were to get Sneijder in, would it make Morgan more or less likely to move in the summer..?

 

a midfield with the both of them in would be awesome.....!!

signing schneider would raise the profile of the club massively

 

however, if he did absolutely nothing, there would be loads of focus on him etc....

 

but I think he would be dynamite

It would be absolutely ridiculous if we sign Wesley Sneijder. I just can't see it. It's not like he's a veteran or anything, he's still within his prime and is utter quality in every way.

 

This would raise the club's profile enormously. You do have an inkling that this is possible due to Koeman as well, he's not just any old Dutchman - he's a true dutch football legend. I imagine most dutch players would consider working with him.

They have the same agent so that's always a plus!

Is there anything to suggest this is seriously on the cards? Sorry if I have missed it, I'm just personally pretty sceptical about this one.

He's Dutch. Emperor Ron is Dutch. They all know each other from Heineken and Edam parties.

Could Sneijder walk into any starting 11 of any teams in the Prem that are better than us or more attractive? I'm not sure he would. Even if it's random bullshiv of crapppy websites we have to make it happen, even if he doesn't want to! :smug:

How long has Osvaldo got on his contract ? we will never make a penny from selling him as he is mental....can't we just cancel his contract and free up £££, QPR will pay him more than us if he is a free agent anyway.

 

Seriously.....Sneijder has to be the most high profile player ever linked with us in recent years.that would be the ultimate sign of intent if we signed him.

Grolsch and Gouda surely!

There's a golf thingy here this week (again) (Sash Shirts on Saturday by all our Massive)

 

Anyways, bumped into my "mates" from Sky Sports 'tater crew today and they said "Wes Sneijder? Wtf? You guys are 'avin a larf surely? Jeez, you pull that off it would be huge"

 

And before you all ask, no, they have no other sources than the ones we have been reading, and yes they did ask loads of "Do you guys really think you can make the CL? "Thought you guys had popped your cork (I liked that) back in December when you went on that bad run. Etc etc etc.

 

So anyway no new news but they DO all know about the rumour

Wait, do you play golf Phil? That's amazing! Ever met anyone famous doing it? I saw Tanita Tikeram at a Pitch'n'Putt in Woking once but she was eating a 99 so I thought i'd leave her be.

Next time I'll just type "People who work at Sky Sports believe this story to be true"

 

I'll leave out the context and you can moan about where and how I had a source for that.

I'm sorry Phil, I love you really. Essentially though your post was "I spoke to some people who work for Sky and they know as little as we do about it".

 

Have a hug xxx

I have absolutely no doubt you are utterly incapable of doing that.

Schneiderlin and Sneijder in would be excellent.

Or you could just stop worrying about trying to present yourself to the world for a second.

I just got pwned by the Beeb on Sportsday. The shame. I still consider Elia a January signing.

 

And of course you are right. It was arranged and announced in December, but not officially completed until the window opened.

Rumours afoot that Liverpool are going to bid for Ings

 

That's his career ruined if true.

They'll loan him back so he will only go down hill from the summer onwards.

Thought we would have at least made the Bertrand deal permanent during this window...?

maybe that was not possible?

 

Why would we make it permanent now? Why not spend the money in the Summer as part of a different FFP year? Do we know how close we are to our FFP limit?

Koeman: "If Cork leaves then we will need to get another midfielder in, other than that it will be a quiet window for us"

 

Confirms interest in the two we've been linked with (Vilhena and Djuricic). "There's a good chance that one will join this window. Maybe both (Koeman smiles)"

@bigadamsport: #saintsfc boss Ronald Koeman says despite Long's injury he is no longer looking for another forward - may look for midfielder if Cork leaves

Posted
No mention of Sneijder in the press conference

 

We obviously arent in for him.

 

No chance we would give new deals to JWP and Davis and then chuck them out the team for an ageing player on monster wages.

 

Its not the Southampton Way.

So GP gets injured/suspended and............?

Implies he was looking, though.

...we'd have to figure out how to play without a big CF to hold it up. Elia/Mane/Tadic have loads of pace and movement as a front three, but we'd need whoever was at AM to play much further forward in support than Davis or JWP have done this season. There'd also be less point in constantly looking wide to the fullbacks, so we'd have to play more centrally than we do at present. It can work though - Liverpool's front three last season of Sturridge/Suarez/Coutinho did okay without a great deal of physical presence.

Joe Pigott remaining at the Club until end of the season.

I didn't see thread about him and don't have the administration right to create a new one.

Just been looking at the BBC gossip coumn to see if any of their stories include anyone outside of Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea & Liverpool (given Koeman's open comments about Vilhena & Djuricic) and note that according to the Mirror Mark Noble is available and attractic interest of WBA & QPR. He would be an excellent signing esp if Morgan does leave in the summer

Yeah he is definitely the player to replace Morgan, especially if we qualify for the Champions League

Was just about to post the same thing. Excellent player, hard worker, great passer, would fit in well, and is proven in the Premier.
