Smirking_Saint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 I honestly think he is the best defender Ive seen. Said this the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewell Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 I totally agree with you. Mark Wright is the only one who comes close for me. The problem is every club in the Prem is now looking at him with interest. Getting him to sign on the dotted line is probabaly the most important signing we will make. He is an 7\10 player ever week and often higher! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sentry Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Sign him up in Jan, dont wait to the end of the year. If I were RK I would be treating him to local ladies of then night, giving him rub downs, the works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom28 Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 There's no doubt he is excellent, and he oozes composure and quality. However, the way our team is so well set up, and the protection the midfield give the back four, most centre backs would look good. Just look at Lovren this year. But he hasn't put a foot wrong all season, and his midfield performance against Arsenal away in the league was one of the best performances of the season. He would be a fantastic permanent signing.

SaintSteve Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Top class defender with pace as well... somehow think Atletico will buy out the option and either keep him or sell at a much higher fee. Agree that its our organisation at the back that dictates that we concede very few goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 He's absolutely brilliant - he is the one player we should break the bank for. If we can offload Ramirez and Osvaldo (I presume we're still paying a contribution to their wages?), then he is the one player I'd love us to go all out for. I'd love to keep Bertrand too, but for Toby should be number 1 target. New contracts for Yoshida, Cork, Jay etc., plus another forward player or two and we have a squad. Would like another goalie, but hey, I'm not greedy ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Being amongst the younger generation, Killer is the only player I've seen come close. Lovren looked like he could be that player this time last year but the second half of the season and his form for Lyon and Liverpool suggests otherwise. Would be over the moon if we can secure him permanently. More than halfway through the season and we have the best defence in the League. There aren't too many Saints players in history with that on their CV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original suggestions were £6m and £10m Reckon these figures may have to be reviewed and will possibly impact on the budget available for other players Would be great to keep both players if finances allow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

croydonsaint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 He is a fantastic player. He is certainly giving his best for us as he has said he would do.

shurlock Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Has been excellent - makes defending look effortless at times. Is much better in the middle, though - today, thought he lost track of what was behind him: Carzola in the first half for his chance and then Sanchez in the second which drew a great save from Forster.

Sour Mash Posted 2 January, 2015 Share Posted 2 January, 2015 Hope and pray this happens, the bloke is top, top class. Whilst he could well attract a "bigger" club, he seems to be very much enjoying his football with us, enjoys working with Koeman and possibly wants to be settled for a couple of years of regular football, rather than having a repeat of Atletico Madrid. Would be fantastic news if this gets confirmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 2 January, 2015 Share Posted 2 January, 2015 I think the club have every intention to make this happen, hopefully Toby can see this as a good place for him right now. He's utter class. Reads the game so well, positions himself so well, strong in the tackle, throws his body on the line. He's the ultimate defender. For £6m it makes the Lovren to Liverpool deal look utterly hilarious. (if it wasn't already funny enough!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Balls Posted 2 January, 2015 Share Posted 2 January, 2015 Hope it's true. What a player he's been. Could probably go to a bigger club but risks not playing every week. If he likes playing, he may as well stay here for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
