Lets B Avenue Posted 30 December, 2014 Share Posted 30 December, 2014 Still be here on Feb 1 .........trust me LOL What about Feb 2, when the window ends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redslo Posted 31 December, 2014 Share Posted 31 December, 2014 He'll be here for the rest of the season unless someone (PSG, Arsenal or Man United) throws genuinely silly money (£30m+) our way, and even then we might hold out until the summer. I've no doubt that he'll be gone in the summer, even if we somehow finish in the top 4, and I'd find it difficult to begrudge him that move - someone will pay him the best part of £100k a week, and we can't come close to matching that. I think I'd prefer him to go to PSG where he can't hurt us further down the line! We could afford to pay that, at least for one season, if we qualify for the Champions League group stage.

Ultimatt Posted 31 December, 2014 Share Posted 31 December, 2014 If a big offer comes in January I think the club should take it. Sure we'd be weaker for the last 5 months but it's a position we have depth in: Wanyama/Cork/Alderweireld all very capable in that DM spot. If we wait until the summer then every club president and his dog will know Morgan is 100% leaving and, unless there's a bidding war, he'll go for less than he's worth.

austsaint Posted 31 December, 2014 Share Posted 31 December, 2014 Lately he just looks like a player who wants to be some where else - yes, money and "big club" possibilities are a big part of that, but he just looks stale with Saints these days; playing well still, but I can see the arguments for cashing in now though I expect him to remain for the season.

OldNick Posted 31 December, 2014 Share Posted 31 December, 2014 He'd never leave if Cortese was still here.doubtful of course but one thing is for sure under KRueger and co , that he will be sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifeintheslowlane Posted 31 December, 2014 Share Posted 31 December, 2014 doubtful of course but one thing is for sure under KRueger and co , that he will be sold. Probably true...but only on our terms and with our interests foremost, (have faith) so I see that being in the summer. Makes no sense to sell him now...we have no need.

austsaint Posted 31 December, 2014 Share Posted 31 December, 2014 Eh? Morgan does not look as motivated or committed to the Saint's cause as he used to (to my observation). You may believe otherwise by the look of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could, but it's a chain reaction thing. If one player is getting that much, the rest will want a slice of the pie as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not going to go cheap you muppet. Is that the same everyone who knew he would go last summer? Think its more likely he will leave but I think we have seen enough to know the club are trying to build, keep the best players or at very least get a good price.

No, that's his style. You're just taking more notice of his body language after what happened in the summer, it's natural. He's always had a bit of a swagger about his game, and with what happened in the summer it's easy to link that with him still wanting out. I personally think he's happy enough here, he's at a side pushing beyond their level, he's playing every week, he's a regular at international level. He's got plenty to be happy about right now. He will get his move in the summer, we know it, he knows it, but he's fine for now. The decision to ignore advances in the summer couldn't have worked out any better for both parties, and I'm sure secretly he's a little bit relieved he didn't jump at the first call.

Hope you are right Clarkey, you often are. I've loved watching the 6 - 7 seasons MS has given to SFC and no one would be happier than me if this wasn't his final stint for us.

I've seen nearly all of our matches this season and that's not what I've seen at all, in fact quite the opposite. His last action was to take one for the team against Chelsea. It would be insane to sell him in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wenger doesn't like haggling or prolonged transfer sagas, he's already been bitten by us over AOC and Chambers and won't go for a third round By the Bye, anyone know when was the last time that Arsenal took a player on loan, a real first teamer I mean not some U15 hotshot.

Window Cleaner Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 (edited) Kim Kallstrom was loaned for some reason. Ah yes, hurt his back carrying the shopping or something of that ilk and passed the majority of his loan period in the treatment room. Some even said it was a last minute scrambled affair because they failed to secure Morgan...yet again, who knows where the truth lies there really. His agent was apparently putting it about last summer that the deal was done and it was just a case of when he signed on the dotted line...Rrright.

nta786 Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Remember when some of you were saying, 'give him a new contract with a release clause that only Champions League Clubs can take him?'... Well, I really hope Spurs don't make top 4 over us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
