Fitzhugh Fella Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Before Koeman took off for sunnier climes I heard there was talk of Chambers coming on loan. With Pied now sidelined and Martina standing by to join Ronald in God's city surely it would not be a bad time to resurrect this deal? Good cover in the middle too.

Mentioned this on another thread this morning. I agree. (I was a little hopeful this thread was confirming it!)
Batman Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Pied is sidelined? We have another crocked knee to deal with.
Heisenberg Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 We already help the top 6 sides in the league by selling them our best players - not sure we also want to start developing their fringe and young players too. Would prefer us to develop and give our own youth a chance. Been a while since we seen some talent promoted from the youth teams!!
stevegrant Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Is Pied a knock or long term? Unsure - having a scan today, I believe.
SuperSAINT Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Unsure - having a scan today, I believe. Fortunate in some ways that the window is still open (and that Martina is still in the building) depending on how things pan out. Lets hope Pied is OK & it's not serious.
Saints foreva Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 He made it clear when Arsenal came calling that he didn't see his future here so **** him.

Bad Wolf Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 He won't come here Why not? What's he ever said or done to make you think that? He left us on relatively good terms didn't he? Better terms than Lallana and Lovren anyway. I'd take him back in a heartbeat, especially right now with the reasons stated in the OP. Plus the squad depth that we need right now considering he can cover RB, CB and RM. I always thought he was slightly better defensively than Clyne.
Fitzhugh Fella Posted 26 August, 2016 Author Posted 26 August, 2016 He won't come here I gather he was quite open to coming here before Koeman left.
Mowgli Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Why not? What's he ever said or done to make you think that? He left us on relatively good terms didn't he?

I thought that was what Callum himself said last time it was rumoured. He would rather stay at Arsenal and fight for his place.
pimpin4rizeal Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Overrated player who quickly became to big for his own boots. Should of counted himself lucky to even have been getting a sniff of gametime when Clyne was here.
RobM Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Why would he come on loan if he's no more likely to play than he is at Arsenal? If he goes on loan it'll be for game time and experience, not to warm somebody else's bench waiting for his chance.
TheMidfieldGeneral Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Unsure - having a scan today, I believe. Out for the season......
Fabrice29 Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 I think it makes perfect sense...if he's seen as a right back. Problem is if he's seen as a CB by Arsenal and himself and they presumably want him to play regular football then this isn't right club for him as he's only getting in if Fonte or VVD are injured/rested. If he wants to come as a right back then he would be straight into our team.

If he wants to come as a right back then he would be straight into our team. Would be fantastic to have him back. A player with a point to prove who knows the set up. Level headed as well so I am told. We could hardly begrudge him a move to Arsenal could we.

We could hardly begrudge him a move to Arsenal could we. So level headed that he jumps at the chance to turn his back on the club that gave him an opportunity,even though we had a much better right back in Clyne. If he was that level headed wouldn't he want to at least establish himself first as first choice right back? It's the equivalent of target my going to Chelsea and then wondering why he's on the bench
david in sweden Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 not sure he 'd want to come back ..but if so, at least he knows how to get to SMS.
eelpie Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Unsure - having a scan today, I believe. What caused it? Springboarding?
St Chalet Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Out for the season...... That has to be a record, even for us.
Saint_clark Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 That has to be a record, even for us. Poor bastard looked to have some talent as well but now will probably end up leaving in a couple of years being remembered unfairly as a flop.
Mr Saints Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 He's been pony for Arsenal in whatever position he's played. If he did come back I hope it would be as backup.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Had the makings of a really decent player . Really should have stayed and developed by playing games for us . When are these nippers gonna learn that there's no substitute for playing premier league games and that a big move will come anyway , they don't need to jump at the first oppurtunity . Personally I did think he'd make a really good centre midfielder or centre half rather than a full back . If him coming back is with a view to a permanent switch , yes everyday of the week . But if it's to help him be better for arsenal , them **** him
Lighthouse Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Don't want him back. If a player wants to bugger off and chase the bright lights and big money at another club, so be it but don't come back here crying when it doesn't work out. A player his age needs regular game time to be decent but he decided to jack that in and go and sit on Arsenal's bench. If anything he has gone backwards, we can do better.
Gorgiesaint Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Wouldn't take him on loan... but if he realised his career isn't going anywhere at Arsenal and wanted to come back, then why not?
SuperSAINT Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Who says? Considering I think he eluded to the injury before it was public, I'd pay attention to him. #ITK_Watch
Badger Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 That has to be a record, even for us. Expect Tinman, and Charlie George beat him tbh. At least Pied made it into the pitch for us before his injury.
