Turkish Posted 29 October, 2016 Posted 29 October, 2016 Enjoy it while you can, It won't be long until the big boys start paying the press to unsettle us again.
Katalinic Posted 29 October, 2016 Posted 29 October, 2016 At least someone has nailed their colours to the Van Dijk is better than Stone mast...so at least we should avoid an "Exclusive" from the red tops - "Saints will find it hard to resist a bid of £20m"....."Saints are thought to be willing to do business at £20m"...etc etc. £50m minimum or **** off.

VVD is better than Mustafi who joined Arsenal for around £30 mill and Stones around £45 mill, so I would be ****ed with anything less then £40 Millon we cant have another Mane situation and sell them for £4-5 million less then what the going rate was or settle for add ons, we should demand all money upfront or the player stays. VVD should
angelman Posted 29 October, 2016 Posted 29 October, 2016 Sammy, I believe that the add-ons for Mané are very easy to achieve, and they are team related rather than Mané related. If I had to have a guess, it would be CL qualification, which I think Liverpool will do (if not win the league).So £38.5m - is that a bad price for Mané? And who knows exactly what the deal was? It has been said that each side party has its reasons for telling half truths, keeping quiet or singing from the roof tops. We keep quiet as that's the way we are. Liverpool seem to have pushed the £30m price quite a bit when I think that the general accepted figure is £34.5m. I would love to kow if there were some sell on clause as I can't see him staying at Liverpool as long as they expect him to.
Chris27687 Posted 29 October, 2016 Posted 29 October, 2016 Looks like they are apologising for the Eric black story - dickheads
whelk Posted 29 October, 2016 Author Posted 29 October, 2016 Romeu for £3mill does look like one of best bit of business ever done by the club.
Pamplemousse Posted 29 October, 2016 Posted 29 October, 2016 We should demand no less than £50M for VVD, assuming that he does go in the near future.
Golden Balls Posted 29 October, 2016 Posted 29 October, 2016 VVD is on a very long contract. We have no reason to consider anything less than £50m. Don't match that, he stays. Win/win.
Saintsteve7 Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 VVD is on a very long contract. We have no reason to consider anything less than £50m. Don't match that, he stays. Win/win. Unless VVD wanted to go, then it most certainly wouldn't be a 'win/win!'
Winnersaint Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 Enjoy it while you can, It won't be long until the big boys start paying the press to unsettle us again. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/2074676/sam-mcqueen-to-liverpool-reds-to-battle-leicester-for-southampton-defender-after-impressive-string-of-performances/ Looks like it's started.
tajjuk Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 I said earlier in the year that VVD should be in the £50-60 million bracket at least, based on what was going on in the transfer market (and his contract length) and many laughed at that, but I stick buy it, IMO he's one of the best centre-backs in the world right now and if Stones is going for £45 then anything less than £50 million we have been mugged. I sincerely hope though that when we do inevitably sell him, it's outside the league so we stop strengthening our rivals. He's good enough for Barca or Madrid so I'd rather see him there than Anfield or Man Utd. Got to lol at Liverpool wanting our third choice left back. Hope McQueen stays certainly think he could challenge at least Matt Targett for that second spot and with the games we are playing we are going to need the whole squad. It is a good success story about Bertrand and Romeu, hopefully same will be true of Hojberg as well, basically helping players starved of game time at big clubs rebuild their careers and realise their potential. The more we do this and the more we improve the Mane's of this world the more we become top of the queue for the up and coming talent out there that isn't first team Man City/Liverpool level.
pluto Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 Sam Wallace one of the 'Go To' journos when the club wants to put somehting out sideways. Slightly surprised SFC are tallking to telepgraph sport after their sting on one of our employees.

pluto Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 Telegraph sport had nothing to do with the sting as far as I know. It was the telegraph newspaper thats all that matters.
DuncanRG Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 It was the telegraph newspaper thats all that matters. Do you really think we should boycott the Daily Telegraph? Why?
david in sweden Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 might look good in print, but I'd still prefer the 3 points.
DuncanRG Posted 30 October, 2016 Posted 30 October, 2016 might look good in print, but I'd still prefer the 3 points. You're mad. Bring on the cuttings!
