derry Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Would be fantastic. To suddenly have the forward options of Saga, DMG and Lupoli, all different types of players, after having just DMG, Robertson and Pekhart, would be brilliant. Very good player whenever I've seen him. Jan is probably what he needs, someone to show some faith in him. Would be time to start playing 442 IMO with those options. Never saw the point when we only had 1 striker. I'd stick with a midfield of Holmes, Morgan, Surman, Lallana. Hmmm, worryingly that looks pretty good..on paper. Let's not get carried away. Defence is still quite **** afterall. That midfield won't work with Lallana selected wide right, he just won't play there. He doesn't like playing there and comes inside all the time. He definitely could play well there if he disciplined himself to play wide. If you want him in, he would have to be in either of the two centre positions or as a support striker.

If you want him in, he would have to be in either of the two centre positions or as a support striker. I would play Davis James Size Perry The young lad Schneiderlin BWP Surman Holmes Lallana Saga But DMG will play so it's pointless debating. If Lupoli comes here I would drop either Lallana or BWP and play 442 with saga and lupoli.

If you want him in, he would have to be in either of the two centre positions or as a support striker. If we where to play a 4-4-2 with two out and out strikers then a right sided player who comes inside isn't a totally bad thing, as long as Holmes spends the whole game out wide strecthing teams then it should be ok.
explorer saint Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Will Norwich let him go now Roeder has resigned hope so but doubt it
saint_stevo Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Will Norwich let him go now Roeder has resigned hope so but doubt it Fiorentina have a recall clause, so not there call mate Dos Santos may well follow, choice between us and Chivas (USA). All terms agreed with Spurs etc. Berate me at your pleasure
Andy_Porter Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Fiorentina have a recall clause, so not there call mate Dos Santos may well follow, choice between us and Chivas (USA). All terms agreed with Spurs etc. Berate me at your pleasure How long until Dailly signs?
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Has signed for Saints, announcement to follow at some point. Returning to the initial post - how confident are you that this is true MB?
saint_stevo Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 How long until Dailly signs? He turned us down in the end, coming to a Forest near you Returning to the initial post - how confident are you that this is true MB? 100% true. I promise. If not i will post a naked picture of me on here if its not confirmed by the weekend
Iowsaintsfan Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 He turned us down in the end, coming to a Forest near you 100% true. I promise. If not i will post a naked picture of me on here if its not confirmed by the weekend Please post that with a warning 1st :smt078:smt078:smt078

Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Sorry guys, so it looks like we may be signing Arturo Lupoli. What is this garble about Gio Dos Santos though?
Andy_Porter Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 (edited) Giovanni Dos Santos would be quite some signing, I've only ever seen him play once and he scored a hat trick for Barca. I found it strange that they sold him to Spurs after that, would be even more strange if he ended up in a Saints shirt. Holmes and Dos Santos on the wings with Saga and Lupoli up top would be quite some attack, can't see it happening mind. Just can't see why he would pick us. Surely someone like Reading, Wolves, Birmingham etc would be interested? Can't see us offering more money either. Edited 15 January, 2009 by Andy_Porter
Andy_Porter Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 He turned us down in the end, coming to a Forest near you Shame.
Mr Saints Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Stevo - any idea of a timeframe for the Dos Santos decision?
Evil Monkey Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Dos Santos eh? What exactly have you heard Stevo? Surely any deal would involve Lallana going to WHL.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Dos Santos eh? What exactly have you heard Stevo? Surely any deal would involve Lallana going to WHL. I'd take that to be fair. £3m + Dos Santos on loan to the end of the season.
bigchrisy Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Guy's let's face it the story about Dos Santos is 606 bullsh*t
once_bitterne Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Guy's let's face it the story about Dos Santos is 606 bullsh*t Indeed. Santos is going on loan to PSG. We've as much chance of signing a £5m player who started 28 games for Barca last season as we do of signing Kaka!
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Sounds like this whole Lupoli thing could be on then. I seem to recall him playing wide right or up front when he was at Derby, so right side of a front 3 would be ideal. Has scored a few in the past so could turn out to be a really good signing.
Saint Garrett Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Lupoli belivable...De Santos really isn't...although it would be awesome !!!
Andy_Porter Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Indeed. Santos is going on loan to PSG. We've as much chance of signing a £5m player who started 28 games for Barca last season as we do of signing Kaka! Why would he want to go to PSG when he could come and join a relegation battle???
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 I see what happened there. Dos Santos is going to Paris SAINT Germain, somewhere mishears a whisper and, hey presto, he's going on loan to SAINTS. Easily done.
Evil Monkey Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Why would he want to go to PSG when he could come and join a relegation battle??? Do PSG have a revolutionary coaching set up?
once_bitterne Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Why would he want to go to PSG when he could come and join a relegation battle??? in the CCC.....
Saint_clark Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 I see what happened there. Dos Santos is going to Paris SAINT Germain' date=' somewhere mishears a whisper and, hey [b']presto[/b], he's going on loan to SAINTS. Easily done. I heard he was going to Preston as well. (See, it's that easy to spin the tiniest thing and make it into a rumour).
Scudamore Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 I heard he was going to Preston as well. (See, it's that easy to spin the tiniest thing and make it into a rumour). I'd heard he was willing to suck Harry Reknapp's c::ck to play for Spurs.
Rory Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 This is hilarious. Saint Steveo is an utter c*ck.
NickG Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Lupoli 4 goals in 7 for Norwich 10 goals in 20 for Derby
slickmick Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Lupoli 4 goals in 7 for Norwich 10 goals in 20 for Derby Nearly as good as DMG then.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Lupoli 4 goals in 7 for Norwich 10 goals in 20 for Derby Fingers crossed then!!!
VectisSaint Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Indeed. Santos is going on loan to PSG. We've as much chance of signing a £5m player who started 28 games for Barca last season as we do of signing Kaka! We've already signed Kack haven't we?
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 We've already signed Kack haven't we? My God, I must have read that joke nearly 30 times on this website today. Please, no more. It was poor to start with.
saint lard Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Stevo - any idea of a timeframe for the Dos Santos decision? Guy's let's face it the story about Dos Santos is 606 bullsh*t From 606 and stevo himself..... comment by Saint_Stevo (U1771903) posted 1 Hour Ago Lupoli is a definate. Will be announced tomorrow probably, Fiorentina had a clause to recall, which they exercised and the player has joined us, not sure if permanently or loan at the moment. Deal as i have said has been struck for Dos Santos, just waiting to hear from the player as he has a choice between us and Chivas currently. Not likely to happen until the last week or so of the window apparently

hypochondriac Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 I don't like him much either, but should he really be dropped after 2 in 2? I want him confident and playing on saturday, he'll get the chance to carry on that form. If he can't put in a hard working shift given that, then he can **** off. Fair point. If (probably when) he loses form then that is the formation I want to see.
mattbrennan Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Is his alter ego Rocket Swanie? In the thread on 606 about Lupoli, Rocket Swanie mentions we offered Skacel and 2 million (to be paid in installments)to Benfica for Freddy Adu. Despite the fact Adu is on a season long loan to Monaco. I have never heard so much crap in my life! I'd be happy with Lupoli and can believe it may happen but Santos - its surely a couple of guys on a wind up.
NickG Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 is this mentioned on any sports news sites (not likes of clubcall but papers etc)
mattbrennan Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 I think Lupoli is around various sites. But you put Southampton and Dos Santos into google and you get nothing. You put PSG + Dos Santos in and you get loads of stuff about PSG taking him on loan.
saint_ed Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 In the thread on 606 about Lupoli, Rocket Swanie mentions we offered Skacel and 2 million (to be paid in installments)to Benfica for Freddy Adu.

NickG Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 http://www.pinkun.com/cs/forums/1537868/ShowPost.aspx their forum, they think its nonsense but one would like DMG!
mattbrennan Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 WHEN will people learn that 606 is just sh!t?! I don't think they ever will! Some of the stuff that is on there is beyond belief. Still Rocket Swanie has been doing it for years and for some strange reason people still believe.
Tac-tics Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 There's a Chappers fella on that 606 and he just copys and paste's anything form here on to that pile of rubbish,aslo claiming he is ITK
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 There's a Chappers fella on that 606 and he just copys and paste's anything form here on to that pile of rubbish' date='aslo claiming he is ITK[/quote'] Yep, seen that. Complete waste of space that Chappers bloke. Eh MB?
Saint_clark Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 Well we know that the Lupoli thing was at least in the works, as they said on the Fiorentina OS that him and his agent were here talking to us.
Saint_clark Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 http://firenzeviola.it/?action=read&idnotizia=37078
Saint_clark Posted 15 January, 2009 Posted 15 January, 2009 The Fiorentina website, and something along the lines of Lupoli and his representation being in Southampton to negotiate a loan deal until the end of the season.
