the saint in winchester Posted 9 January, 2017 Share Posted 9 January, 2017 Is this Oumar Niasse at Everton any good? Koeman dropped him like a bad smell, said he can go tomorrow, today even.

harvey Posted 9 January, 2017 Share Posted 9 January, 2017 I was prepared to give them ago and wasn't to upset with our options in the summer If Long had managed to keep up the form he finished last season with that would have been OK.... sadly he hasn't I really like Jrod so I really wanted him to get a chance to get back to his old self ... sadly that doesn't look likely I figured Austin had goals in him... he does but he is out for the rest of the season So now we need a striker/CF or we are going struggle second half the season badly A lot of ifs there.

I'm curious to see if the boy still has it after all the hype and no playtime whatsoever. He'll probably look pretty good in the Dutch League, same as he did in unders football in Norway. Why even I looked pretty sharp when I was playing for Taunton's U15s. Trouble is my parents didn't make a shedload of cash from Real Madrid by hyping me up before anyone found out that I wasn't much good in the real world.

He only played 1 season at the top level in the Dutch league as well. It's gone very fast for Janssen. A bit too fast, it seems. But the man definitely knows how to score a goal. A confidence boost could still release him, but he'll have to start scoring at some point to achieve that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haller aint rubbish, thats nonsense he has qualities all tho im not convinced he will make it, but i also wasnt convinced about Janssen and i also wasnt convinced about Pelle but he did more then alright. Jannsen aint that much better then Haller, if you ask me Haller has more chance of doing decently in the Premier League then Janssen. Spurs just massively overpaid, he shouldnt have cost more then 10/12 million. 18/20 million for a guy with one year experience in the Eredivisie is absurd, especially when they guy didnt even play for one of the top clubs in Holland. The Premier League is not a easy league for strikers, if you look at the topscorers then they either have physical qualities like height and power (Costa, Zlatan, Lukaku, Kane etc) or incredible technical skills and quick (Sanchez, Aguero etc). Jannsen doesnt shine in any of those area's, he has some height and power and decently with his feet but has nothing that really stands out, well he stands out for working his ass off on the pitch but thats not really what you want from a striker when you are Spurs. If you would give me a choice of either getting in Janssen or Haller, i would go for Haller any day of the week atm simply because his qualities suits the league and our team better.

SuperSAINT Posted 10 January, 2017 Author Share Posted 10 January, 2017 Stoke City have made a formal bid to buy West Brom striker Saido Berahino, according to Sky sources. There is so far no indication of the value of the Stoke bid, but we understand it is less than the £20m offer from Tottenham that was rejected in the summer of 2015. Stoke also had a similar bid rejected in the summer. Berahino hasn't played for Albion since September, and was sent to a training camp in France last month to improve his fitness. He hasn't scored a Premier League goal since February last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's clearly not too bright (even by footballer standards), is an obvious troublemaker, and hasn't had a decent goal return since 2014/15. He fits perfectly into this new group of 'young English talent' players (Lingard, Alli, Grealish, Sterling) all of which have huge egos and seem like a bunch of complete t***s. Why would his attitude be any different with us than it has been at West Brom? 1 decent season (which I don't think he'd give us anyway) and he'll pull a Lovren.

He's not a troublemaker at all and those that know him, and I include very good friends of mine in that, say he's an ordinary guy who is fuming with his employer for breaking an agreement that they had and is determined to ensure they get the very minimum for him when he leaves as an out of contract player. He's turned down contracts that would double his current wage such is his determination to leave. He's turned down Stoke twice as he considers it a club similar to WBA and wouldn't suit his style.

Generally thought terms ect would have been discussed through 3rd parties (agents ect..) before fee / bid is agreed? Also, can't imagine moving would be too much of an issue if he was willing to join spurs? As you seems fairly close to the situation and both clubs involved, where do you reckon he'll end up?

SuperSAINT Posted 10 January, 2017 Author Share Posted 10 January, 2017 Mamadou Sakho is set to decide his future in the next 48 hours with Southampton favourites to sign the Liverpool outcast. Sakho knows he must quit Anfield to relaunch his stalled career and the France defender has attracted interest from Southampton, West Ham, Sevilla and Galatasaray. Sakho, 26, would prefer to join another Premier League club and is understood to favour a move to Southampton. Saints are more stable than West Ham and he knows compatriot Claude Puel from playing against him in France. Southampton feel Sakho could replace wantaway captain Jose Fonte and Puel has excluded him from his EFL Cup squad to face Liverpool because he handed in a transfer request. Sakho is considering his various offers and is expected to make a decision before the end of the week. Liverpool want a cash deal for the former Paris St Germain centre-half, who has not played this season after spectacularly falling out with Jurgen Klopp on the club's US summer tour. However the Reds may have to accept a loan move with a view to a permanent deal in the summer to offload Sakho. Source: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/southampton-favourites-sign-liverpool-defender-9595667 ^ No idea if it's true, but nice to see those words highlighted above re: a Liverpool player "understood" to want a move to us rather than the other way around.

It's a thankless sport but what has he got to gain other than petty vengeance by making sure they get the minimum for him? I guess it's easy to forget how much West Brom have done for him and his development. As I previously mentioned, what happens if we sign him, he has a good season for us, and we refuse to sell?

My mate who knows SB I'll be seeing on Thursday evening so I'll ask if he's heard anything new. Despite what people pick up from the press he is, apparently, a pretty quiet unassuming chap who is the church going type, he goes with his mum and pays a quite large % of his own money into a clean water charity in Africa. He turns up to regularly to watch a junior team he sponsors, he paid for their kit etc, my nippers team have played against them previously. However, he knows how he wants to play football and that's where the disagreements arise. Yes he's fallen foul of the law but many young players do. I'm certainly in no position to judge that! I genuinely don't know where he'll end up. I guess if Spurs come back in he'd be daft to turn that down. I'd imagine WHU and Palace will be back in as well. There is no doubt that WBA really fu_cked him off regarding going back on their word and if they only get a development fee for him he'd be happy. I'll see if I can find anything new out this week.

We've only recently ever sold 1 decent player after their first year with us, being Lovren, and he forced his way out of the club in a particularly disruptive way. So I believe we would refuse to sell after a year denying Berahino a possible big move. His track record suggests he wouldn't take it very well even if we said give us another year and you can go.

I guess it was just a bit of a 'cheap' punt that didn't work out. Cheap punt that no doubt left a negative effect on the balance sheet though. Fee, agent's fee, salary, costs. Probably cost us somewhere between 3 and 4 million at the end of the day for zero return. That sort of deal is why we have no money for real transfers. Gardos is the same, a total waste of money, he's probably cost us over 10 million so far and is just not contributing anything. Big clubs can afford that sort of thing, they can always get a Chinese Noodle maker to fund their errors but ours come at the price of selling good players and replacing them with average ones.

SKD Posted 10 January, 2017 Share Posted 10 January, 2017 Is Sakho good enough on the ball for our style? according to Wikipedia (appreciate this may not be completely accurate) Mamadou Sakho is a French professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Premier League club Liverpool and the France national team. He is known for his tackling ability and his passing accuracy To me he has always looked solid but awkward with the ball at his feet, but in all honesty I've seen very little of him.

He's massively overpriced, very injury-prone, suffers from muscle fatigue and ankle problems and has only managed two 90 minute appearances in Serie A in the last 2 years. Even in the days when he was fit enough to play, he was well behind Pelle in the Italian striker pecking order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Sakho any good on the ball? Didn't someone do a run through earlier and the summary was - looks like bambi on ice but has good passing and tackling - head like a 50p piece. Good little pairing with him and VVD then! Sakho for Fonte and Berahinio or this Italian bloke is pretty good business this window and I would be happy. I guess Fonte was going from the start hence why he didn't start in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
