Badger Posted 14 May, 2017 Share Posted 14 May, 2017 Hasn't worked out at stoke, with Hughes hinting at a sale... I reckon a cut price IMBULA would be a great signing for us. If we can get s big name like Krychowiak or Carvalho, wouldn't be disapointed with this. Big, strong and quality in distribution. Romeu-IMBULA would make such a difference to Our team and play Wasn't Imbula linked with us before ? Possibly in 2015. Since we were linked with him he's failed to settle at both Porto and Stoke.Not sure he's a risk worth taking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 14 May, 2017 Share Posted 14 May, 2017 And Stoke. And Palace. But no doubt we won't make it to mid June before the forum intelligentsia start openly weeping about how, yet again, those three clubs are going to leave us behind. Just like last June. And the one before that. Shaqiri. They signed Shaqiri etc etc etc. My favourite was when Norwich 'won' the transfer window.... .... .... then got relegated.

Dazza82 Posted 14 May, 2017 Share Posted 14 May, 2017 Having looked at the table and fixtures, a Spurs win on Thursday against Leicester would mean a guarenteed top 10 finish for us, as Leicester then play Bournmouth on the last day and if they've lost to Spurs, both couldn't then overtake us. Don't lose to Utd and beat Stoke should see us finish 8th. Who would of took that and a cup final at the start of the season Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convict Colony Posted 15 May, 2017 Share Posted 15 May, 2017 Klassen has just scored his 14th goal from midfield, I get what you are saying but he would offer something we currently don't have from our midfield a goal threat.

He's physically impressive (1.96m, 86kg), he's almost impassable and can score (4 goals in Ligue 1 this season, 9 in Ligue 2 the previous one). Only 3 central defenders have a better rating than him on whoscored this season in Ligue 1 : Loïc Perrin, Thiago Silva and Paul Baysse (who will leave Nice...).

We'll if he thinks like that happy days welcome to saints but a lot of young players don't seem to think like that do they? Just look at some of the players who left us young for bigger clubs when arguably regular playing time with saints might have been more beneficial to them in the long run. I guess it will come down to what offers he gets but I doubt he would pick us over say Dortmund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
