Saint Charlie Posted 16 June, 2015 Posted 16 June, 2015 Would take him for sure, excellent player. Same. Also physically imposing which helps as we have quite a few smaller lads.
The Cat Posted 16 June, 2015 Posted 16 June, 2015 Sign him now, sell Wanyama end of next season. Makes perfect sense.

Imbula however is not as good as Morgan with his long range passing. Krychowiak too is expensive and would prefer him to Imbula. He was available for peanut (5-6m euros) at the of last season while playing for Reims. Pity we didn t come in for him at that time. Paying 22m euros for him now feels like we are being raped

doddisalegend Posted 16 June, 2015 Posted 16 June, 2015 N'Zonzi tells Stoke he won't sign a new deal. Only has a year left and they will sell for probably £8m. Has been their POTS last two years. I'm assuming, if he won't sign a contract with Stoke, he is looking to move a bit further up the food chain than little old Southampton probably feels he is ready to play for Liverpool or spuds.

SuperMikey Posted 16 June, 2015 Posted 16 June, 2015 N'Zonzi is an absolute arsehole, wouldn't want him anywhere near the club thanks. His attitude on the pitch is appalling, and have heard similar about it off the pitch too.

SuperSAINT Posted 16 June, 2015 Posted 16 June, 2015 Certainly seems like there's something to the Gueye link. The Clasie trail on the other hand seems to have gone quiet.
verlaine1979 Posted 16 June, 2015 Posted 16 June, 2015 http://www.francefootball.fr/news/Gueye-entre-l-om-et-southampton/567179 Not really a regular scorer, though last year was his best with 4 league goals, all of which he seemed to get by either driving into the box from midfield, or arriving on the edge of the area as the cross comes in. No idea if he's the one to do it, but would be nice to have a central midfielder capable of scoring those kind of goals.
SuperSAINT Posted 17 June, 2015 Posted 17 June, 2015 Scratch off Simon Kjær from the list. He's joined Fenerbahce.
the saint in winchester Posted 17 June, 2015 Posted 17 June, 2015 Jose (Pepe) Reina? REINA WANTS OUT? Pepe Reina has hinted he could be on his way out of Bayern Munich this summer after revealing his desire for more first-team football next term. The 32-year-old played second fiddle to Manuel Neuer, managing only three appearances in 2014-15, and he will face further competition for places after Bayern snapped up Sven Ulreich from Stuttgart on Tuesday. And now Reina has placed doubt over his future at the Bundesliga giants after admitting he wants to play more next term. He told Marca Plus: “It’s been a harder year than I expected. You can accept being understudy in the national team, but it’s more difficult to accept it at a big club. “I hoped to play more, but I haven’t felt deceived because I knew what I was letting myself in for. I have a contract with Bayern, although the plan is to play more football next season.”

the saint in winchester Posted 17 June, 2015 Posted 17 June, 2015 Can only assume his wages are ridiculous. True, yeah, but as he has stated he wants to play more football next season (his words) then we can offer him 1st choice role for the foreseeable future. If he chooses to sit on a bench and earn more money, that says something about him and his priorities.

If you think our budget for the summer started and ended with the £5m juanmi deal then I am slightly alarmed
Matthew Le God Posted 17 June, 2015 Posted 17 June, 2015 Perhaps Saints would make Liverpool dropping out of the race for Gomez a condition of any deal for Clyne? Would then leave Saints with two right backs in their squad... Cedric Soares as first choice and Joe Gomez as his understudy.

Could be a great signing if we have an understudy to right back and centre back. Being looked at by some top teams though so be surprised if it happens.

for_heaven's_Saint Posted 18 June, 2015 Posted 18 June, 2015 Can't imagine our transfer policy includes looking at anyone over 30 (unless it's a free or a loan). 'Keepers would probably be an exception to that rule, seeing as many of them play until their late 30s. Not that I think we're interested in Reina.
Shance Posted 18 June, 2015 Posted 18 June, 2015 Reina is way past his best now IMO. Been a bit hit and miss since his shockingly quick decline for Liverpool. Would be decent back up but he wants first team football, so not sure he'd want to come here knowing when Fraser returns he'd likely be our no.2.

Lallana's Left Peg Posted 18 June, 2015 Posted 18 June, 2015 Bit concerned by the lack of quality / numbers of centre backs we're being linked with. I know we want Alderweireld but Fonte, Gardos, and Yoshida are our only senior central defenders at the moment and that doesn't feel good enough for the number of games or part of the table we want to consistently be in.

If he doesn't end up signing for us the club will move onto the alternatives.

If he doesn't end up signing for us the club will move onto the alternatives. I'm not advocating signing a centre-back, but the media haven't been linking us with too many considering two clubs bigger and better than us are also reported to be interested in Alderweireld. Schneiderlin and Clyne are still our players and yet we've been linked with plenty of central midfielders and right-backs, but hardly any centre-backs despite Toby not even being our player. Seems strange to me.

If he doesn't end up signing for us the club will move onto the alternatives. I'm sure we have alternatives lined up in case Toby doesn't sign. It would be foolish to wait until his future is decided before we do anything, especially as that could rumble on for a while.

Doesn't seem to much to spend if we are definitely losing Morgan we bid close to that for kryzowiak also
