Saints foreva Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Hahaha, apparently we tried to get Jordi Amat on loan from Swansea. Rejected.
Matty's Caddy Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 We also had our fingers burnt with Toby don't forget. Terms of the loan need to be right. We don't want him buggering off at the end of the season after we've improved him and put him in the shop window.
Shance Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Amat We are desperate. Should've just paid the ****ing money for Sakho!!!
beatlesaint Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 What a complete and utter balls up this has been
James Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Amat? Jesus. Les making himself look silly here. Mismanaged window for sure.
saintwbu Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Sakho is ****, i'd rather play Forster at CB than that donkey for 100k a week. Ake would've been nice, however.
maxi_sopez Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 truly unbelievable that we have let fonte go and vvd injured and have not got a cb. terrible.
SKD Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 We also had our fingers burnt with Toby don't forget. Terms of the loan need to be right. We don't want him buggering off at the end of the season after we've improved him and put him in the shop window. Couldn't give a **** where they go next season, were desperate now
Saints foreva Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Bournemouth make an £18m bid for Ake and here we are asking for a Swansea reject on loan. Ambition.
S-Clarke Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Still hoping there's something in the background, but for our fabled black box, we have dropped an absolute bollock here. Such, such poor squad management.
AK Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Where's the Amat noise coming from? http://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/swansea-southampton-loan-deal-for-jordi-amat-collapses
SKD Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 martin caceres - free agent, the only option we now have to save our season
Shance Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Ake is exactly the sort of CB we should've been hijacking but unfortunately his loan to Bournemouth is until the summer so we couldn't have got him anyway. Bournemouth have jumped in at exactly the right time.
S-Clarke Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Bournemouth make an £18m bid for Ake and here we are asking for a Swansea reject on loan. Ambition. I don't think he could sign for anyone else anyway, so it's either stay at Chelsea or go back to Bournemouth.
Shance Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 martin caceres - free agent, the only option we now have to save our season No it's not. Assuming we've put in the paper work we'll have an extra two hours to get a CB in.
Donatello Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 http://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/swansea-southampton-loan-deal-for-jordi-amat-collapses Thanks.
James Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 No it's not. Assuming we've put in the paper work we'll have an extra two hours to get a CB in. If we had I presume we would have heard by now no?
Shance Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 If we had I presume we would have heard by now no? There will be a few clubs that have put it in, none have made any announcements. Why would they?
Saint Scott Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Sibley hasn't posted saying they're done for the evening.. #clutchingatstraws
Saint Pete Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Hahaha, apparently we tried to get Jordi Amat on loan from Swansea. Rejected. This really is amateur hour if that's true!
S-Clarke Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 There will be a few clubs that have put it in, none have made any announcements. Why would they? That's what I'm clinging to......
James Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 There will be a few clubs that have put it in, none have made any announcements. Why would they? I don't mean officially I mean rumour wise?
Shance Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 I don't mean officially I mean rumour wise? Not heard anything mate but it's all the straws I have left to clutch at I'm afraid.
badgerx16 Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Looks like CP won't be doing much rotation of the CB selection for the rest of the season.
a1ex2001 Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Disappointing need for a cb is pretty apparent I await a statement saying we tried real hard but failed oh well plenty of game time for the youngster so I guess we will know by the end of the season if he is good enough or not every cloud and all that!

Won't change anything though!
Toon Saint Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Even if we get someone in before 1am, which is unlikely, if we were scrabbling around for Jordi Amat as a last minute loan, then the calibre of the player we bring in is likely to be utterly w@nk. Awful from Les and Ross. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
hackedoff Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Still hoping there's something in the background, but for our fabled black box, we have dropped an absolute bollock here. Such, such poor squad management. Only two black boxes worth having, and you find one type on an aircraft.
Mr Saints Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 What a shambles. The club have known since the summer Fonte would be off sooner rather than later so absolutely no excuse, Fonte's replacement should have been on his way in long before the VVD injury. The black box and SFC recruitment system always ahead of the game? Well, ending two consecutive transer windows woefully short in key areas short shows what ******** that is.
Saint Pete Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Something's gone seriously wrong here. Can only assume we thought we were getting either Sakho or Tasci and didn't have any other adequate backup options when both of these fell through? It's pretty poor we have put ourselves in this position. Should never have agreed to Fonte sale if we couldn't guarantee getting at least a stop gap to see us through rest of this season.

Couldn't give a f**k if something has "gone wrong", we were promised Fonte (d*ckhead though he is), wouldn't leave without a replacement. WHERE IS THE F**KING REPLACEMENT?? Saints win the 'net transfer spend trophy' again ........

WHERE IS THE F**KING REPLACEMENT?? Saints win the 'net transfer spend trophy' again ........ I've said it in the past and I'll say it again Reed needs to keep his mouth shut. The regularity with which he says or indicates something is going to happen and then the opposite happens is getting a bit silly now.
Shance Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Absolutely fuming that Sakho has gone to Palace.
hypochondriac Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Let's just hope by some miracle we can win the cup and then scrape enough points to stay up. Otherwise it could be an incredibly depressing end to the season.
James Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Absolutely fuming that Sakho has gone to Palace. Got to wonder whether we are either very difficult to negotiate with or, being frank, too cheap. Whilst I appreciate that we can't spend recklessly it does seem to take us an age to complete deals compared to other clubs. Boufal in the summer and we've been negotiating for Gabbi all window. Palace probably just paid the fee to get the deal done whereas I wonder whether we tried to haggle too hard and Liverpool just found another taker.
Saint Pete Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 We're gonna have to get over our goalscoring issues in a hurry that's for sure as can't see us keeping many clean sheets until Van Dijk is back with the options at our disposal in defence now!
danjosaint Posted 31 January, 2017 Posted 31 January, 2017 Common denominator 'Reed' too much of an egomaniac to spend what other teams want, yes I agree we don't want to be bent over but sometimes you just need to open wallet, the guys a smarmy ***** who is possibly a nightmare to deal with
lloydie Posted 1 February, 2017 Posted 1 February, 2017 We have had a mare this window, Reed can do one.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 1 February, 2017 Posted 1 February, 2017 Does Reed sign the wages off, does he sign the cheques? It's all well and good blaming him,but nobody knows his remit. Before I start slagging him off I'd like to know what budgets he was set and also the extent of VvD's injury. Only then can you make a judgement on a centre half not coming in Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Doubt Kat gets that involved tbh.

Ownership and all that.
Saint Billy Posted 1 February, 2017 Posted 1 February, 2017 So we've signed a foward but failed to get a CB, I presume we are going with the tactic of trying to score more than we let in. That'll work
