S-Clarke Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Good news. The best pool of midfielders in the premier league just got even better. I notice Les stopped short of saying that this time........
S-Clarke Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 What a long throw though Which we never, ever actually made use of. Only Saints.
Lighthouse Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Which we never, ever actually made use of. Only Saints. It was crap nine times out of ten, high, slow and easily defended. In fact I can only remember one actual goal, a last minute winner from Tessem. He didn't get the hang of it until he went to Stoke. Anyway, welcome to Saints Mario!
Patrick Bateman Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 So £15.4M, spread over three years, and another £2.7M in potential add-ons. That seems like a relative bargain when you think what else is going on - well done Les! Looks like a good player.
LuckyNumber7 Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Some good news at last, welcome to Southampton Mario!
doggface Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 His "highlights" reel on you tube look like everything we have been missing from our midfield pool. No pressure! Obviously is a bit raw but needs game time. Excited about this one.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Sounds like a very positive signing. Welcome Mario! I hope someone has taken the time to introduce our manager to you...
LVSaint Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Dynamic looking player. A bit 'unorthodox' from his highlights reel...but should be a lot of fun to watch and will hopefully forge a great partnership with Romeu.
Ohio Saint Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Dynamic looking player. A bit 'unorthodox' from his highlights reel...but should be a lot of fun to watch and will hopefully forge a great partnership with Romeu. Didn't look like a box to box midfielder to me. I would like to see him as a DM poking forward a few long passes.....but hey....youtube.
CB Fry Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Really looking forward to seeing him play for us for the next five years.
brmbrm Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Great stuff! Hope for a long and successful career with Saints
Ohio Saint Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Really looking forward to seeing him play for us for the next five years. You forgot to use the sarcasm font.
angelman Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 So £15.4M, spread over three years, and another £2.7M in potential add-ons. At the current shiiity FX rate. If it went back up to the €1.30 that I got when settling my bills pre-Brexit, then that would take it down to £13m
wellzzy Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Lets just pray this is the end of James Ward Prouse
SNSUN Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 My family Golden Retriever Alfie was put to sleep at 3pm today, and I'm having a rough day at work. This news has cheered me up no end! Welcome Mario! More signings of this calibre and we're in for a good season! (That's a CB or 2, a keeper, and another attacking player.)
Ohio Saint Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Lets just pray this is the end of James Ward Prouse Depth of squad is lost on you?
washsaint Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Lets just hope that he punches that c**t VVD in the nuts if he ever trains with Saints again like he did in a match once. Sounds like a typical Saints signing and filling the sizeable hole left by Shcneiderlin/Wanyama. Be interesting to see how MP keeps all our midfield options happy....certainly a choice from Boufal, Tadic, JWP, Davis, Romeu, mario, Clasie, PEH, Redmond would seem to indicate that at least 1 to 2 of these could be surplus to requirements in the near future.

Matthew Le God Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Lets just pray this is the end of James Ward Prouse 1) Praying is futile 2) His name is Ward-Prowse, not Ward Prouse 3) He is a very good player and can be used in the 2 or the 3 of a 4-2-3-1
SuperSAINT Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 This made my day: "In a volatile market with some extraordinary and inexplicable transfers taking place, we are determined to go about our work in a diligent and correct way. This is a player who has won trophies and played in the Champions League final less than three months ago and he has signed for Saints amid a host of suitors." #LesReed

Golac's Cunning Stunts Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Yes, Scouse not happy with some of Les's words. All done "in the correct way". I liked the reference to us getting value from the player not just in the short term, but in the years to come :-)

Danbert Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Impressive work by the club once again. Signing a player who played in the previous season's Champions League Final has to be a first. I can't believe we have fans who complain about our recruitment.

Chris27687 Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Great signing - He looks like the sort of player who is going to make everyone up front look a lot better.
Toadhall Saint Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Lets just pray this is the end of James Ward Prouse Let's just pray that you **** off esp as you never have anything to say apart from knocking the club or JWP who I would bet a pound to a piece of **** has more talent in his left toe nail than you have intelligence.

I can't believe we have fans who complain about our recruitment. Usually we wait two or three seasons and sign players who have won the Champions League (Bertrand, Hojbjerg, Romeu, Caceres), getting a runner-up may be a first.

Saint Albert Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Welcome Mario Lemina! Looks like a good signing to me. I'm assuming (hoping) the club got him for the DM role alongside Romeu.
Shroppie Posted 8 August, 2017 Posted 8 August, 2017 Les Reed went to Europe To buy a Ford Cortina Instead he bought a midfield man He calls himself Lemina He passes to his left, he passes to his right And if he ever scores a goal We'll sing this song all night.
