Mitrovic

Rondon

 

only if we sell one of existing, mind

 

Yep, would be happy with etiher.

 

If were dreaming Michy would do well also, but is probably urealistic

[View From The Top]

Get Giroud in exactly what we are missing.

 

Put the crack pipe away youth.

[SuperSAINT]

Put the crack pipe away youth.

 

Heard anything lately, VfTT?

[Saint Matty 76]

Would we really be up for Mitrovic who wasn't even good enough for Newcastle during the Championship? Surely much better options for us.

[S-Clarke]

Would we really be up for Mitrovic who wasn't even good enough for Newcastle during the Championship? Surely much better options for us.

 

He was more than good enough for Fulham in the NPC though. And more than good enough in the World Cup too, although could have probably got a couple more goals.

[Saint Matty 76]

He was more than good enough for Fulham in the NPC though. And more than good enough in the World Cup too, although could have probably got a couple more goals.

Don't think he was particularly impressive at the World Cup either. Just don't see him as an upgrade on Austin at all.

[Lets B Avenue]

Don't think he was particularly impressive at the World Cup either. Just don't see him as an upgrade on Austin at all.

 

Apart from being available every week?

[Saint_lambden]

Don't think he was particularly impressive at the World Cup either. Just don't see him as an upgrade on Austin at all.

 

Looked a constant threat in the World Cup. He'd be a great addition.

[ChiefScummer]

Been loosely linked with filip kostic

[Faz]

Mitrovic

Rondon

 

only if we sell one of existing, mind

 

No to either. Mitrovic is a **** load of trouble and doesn't have a record to write home about. Rondon has been marginally better than Long at WBA.

[Chez]

Mitrovic's finishing at Newcastle has been poor. He looked a handful during the world cup, but he didn't change my mind about his finishing. Is that anyone better we can attract with Premiership wages?

[doddisalegend]

Been loosely linked with filip kostic

 

His stats for anyone interested left winger 17 goals and 18 assists in a 120 Bundesliga games

 

https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/filip-kostic/profil/spieler/161011

[Saint86]

Lol the mistake you are making is that one person posting or even two or three posting is not a representation of our fan base. Muppet.

 

I'm sorry, am I not allowed to say, "the muppets in our fanbase"? Do you not understand that phrase? I didn't call our fanbase muppets, i called those that discriminate against a particular race muppets. In spite of the obvious case that the south americans include some of the world's greatest players? Maybe you disagree with that as well?

 

Or Fred, do you seriously think that we are different to all other clubs and include no moron fans, and that as a fanbase we are all perfect little saints?

 

Either learn to read or don't misquote people. You make yourself look like a moron or a bell end otherwise. Sadly you do appear to be someone who takes umbridge at any imagined slight and uses it as a good enough reason to insult them on a web forum.

 

Oh and by the way Fred, its fecking obvious to most football fans that you should approach all transfers on a player by player basis. The alternative approach would be something like west ham saying they won't sign any African players etc.

 

Summer (and a rare decent one at that), has clearly gone on too long for you. May I suggest you stay away from the keyboard until August comes around okay?

 

[Saint_lambden]

Mitrovic

Rondon

 

only if we sell one of existing, mind

 

Seems as if Newcastle are trying to sign Rondon, which may in turn lead to them selling Mitrovic. Newcastle want upwards of £15m.

[beatlesaint]

Would love Antonio back. West Ham want £15 million - bargain in this day and age

[Professor]

With The Telegraph saying that Arsenal are likely to let Welbeck leave, wonder if our people are looking at him. Only one year left on his contract so the fee for a player who can leave for nothing next year shouldn't be prohibitive. Would depend on which other clubs were to show an interest. Any whispers?

[SuperSAINT]

No real whispers. Think we will probably start seeing players depart before we see any new arrivals.

[Avenue_Saint]

Mitrovic looks as medicocre as they come.

[Monk]

Rondon at £13m would be a snip.

 

What's happened to the Alcacer link? It's gone very quiet.

[SuperSAINT]

Player west ham have messed up. Too many changes, shifted him around, different managers and styles. He's a simple direct runner, great pace decent finisher and good in the air. Think we could really get the best out of him. We have good technical players, clever players but we might need someone more direct. Him and Mo either flank would be a great combination.

 

Plus we'd have another goalscorer on the pitch. Suddenly with Mo, Armstrong and Antonio behind the striker you'd have scoring options all over. I'd far rather sign Antonio and stick with our strikers than take a punt on another expensive but average forward.

 

Antonio isn't the worst shout I've heard, for all the reasons mentioned.

[doddisalegend]

Rondon at £13m would be a snip.

 

What's happened to the Alcacer link? It's gone very quiet.

 

His best tally at WBA was 9 league goals three seasons ago. I wonder if we will ever sign a prolific goal scorer again it would be nice to have a 15-20 league goal striker to watch.

Think he'd be ok, despite his lack of footballing ability. We don't have anyone with pace and offers something in the air.

[Stud mark of doom]

I'd be happy to see Antonio back at Saints too.

 

Me too, for sure.

 

But then, I sometimes think I’d like Papa Waigo back.

[the saint in winchester]

Would love Antonio back. West Ham want £15 million - bargain in this day and age

 

I rated him then when he was a gangly RW. Now he's a muscle-ripped ST I would rate him even more. Get him in. At £15M it's a yes from me.

[Faz]

I rated him then when he was a gangly RW. Now he's a muscle-ripped ST I would rate him even more. Get him in. At £15M it's a yes from me.

 

Bear in mind, in three seasons for West Ham he's managed 76 appearances in all comps, marginally more than Charlie Austin over the same period. Does have an impact when he plays though.

[tajjuk]

Going to Palace by all accounts, with him and Zaha they will trouble a lot of teams.

 

Decent goal record for West Ham in the league, 20 in 76 for a guy who is mainly a winger and has had to have spells playing at full back. As a comparison Tadic scored 20 in 134 in comparison playing a similar position.

 

I think a bit too old and injury prone for our usual level of transfer.

 

But personally would take him because he offers goals, pace and power that we lack.

[Saint Garrett]

Think some people are overating Antonio on here. I wouldn't be afraid if he was lining up against us.

[Dellman]

I would love Antonio back, the team had a great spirit in his day and so did the fans. But why are Hammers releasing him? thought he was a star for them

[the saint in winchester]

Bear in mind, in three seasons for West Ham he's managed 76 appearances in all comps, marginally more than Charlie Austin over the same period. Does have an impact when he plays though.

 

Not 'managed', just been given. Not selected often enough.

[the saint in winchester]

I would love Antonio back, the team had a great spirit in his day and so did the fans. But why are Hammers releasing him? thought he was a star for them

 

Because they need to get some money back IN to compensate for all the OUT spend.

[Fabrice29]

Think some people are overating Antonio on here. I wouldn't be afraid if he was lining up against us.

 

Yes quite. One of those players who when he plays well he looks very good and everyone takes notice but actually more often than not he wont. I wanted him back at one stage and wouldn't be anti it if he did come back but I think we're probably looking for a level and consistency above now. Decent player, good guy but I think palace would be a good move for him.

[Saint IQ]

Would have Antonio back all day long, then we'd only need a back up right back and a Striker who can hold up the ball like Rickie Lambert and to a lesser extent Pelle did for us.

 

Unless Hughes is going to give Gallagher a chance to impress.

[Dusic]

Antonio has a woeful injury record the last couple of years.

[Chez]

Would love Antonio back. West Ham want £15 million - bargain in this day and age

 

Was very disappointed we did not sign him back in the day. That amazing second half display away at Orient showed what a threat he was.

 

Power, pace and headed goals. What's not to like, apart from lots of little injuries?

[Heisenberg]

Antonio or Redmond?

 

[SKD]

Rondon at £13m would be a snip.

 

What's happened to the Alcacer link? It's gone very quiet.

 

Agree, we should be all over that.

[ohgulydoprado]

We should be all over Rondon - exactly what we need

[tajjuk]

Career record of 1 in 3, 1 in 5 in the PL, do not see the appeal of Rondon at all.

[Saint Albert]

Rondon at £13m would be a snip.

 

What's happened to the Alcacer link? It's gone very quiet.

 

The release clause is £16.5M according to this...

 

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2018/07/17/newcastle-have-loan-bid-salomon-rondon-rejected-west-brom/

 

Because it’s a release clause situation, West Brom may insist on getting the full amount up front if they don’t want to lose him, which might be an issue.

[le_tiss]

Career record of 1 in 3, 1 in 5 in the PL, do not see the appeal of Rondon at all.

 

not the exact picture though is it?

 

He Played up top on his own with no support / massive gap to the next midfielder - his job was to hold the ball up - run the channels - under two negative managers

 

Sound familar? amazing what happens when to try to create and score goals rather than just trying to keep it tight

[Verbal]

Mitrovic looks as medicocre as they come.

 

In the end it doesn't matter what we think of him - he's going to Fulham.

[Dusic]

Everton want £20m for Lookman.

 

Thats one to be all over.

[SKD]

Career record of 1 in 3, 1 in 5 in the PL, do not see the appeal of Rondon at all.

 

Ability to hold the ball up and bring others into play is something we massively miss.

 

It’s not all about scoring goals individually. If he can help the team, collectively, score more, that will be an improvement.

[SuperSAINT]

Everton want £20m for Lookman.

 

Thats one to be all over.

 

I agree. Mentioned that in the other transfer thread.

[Hatch]

Everton want £20m for Lookman.

 

Thats one to be all over.

 

yep. I'm in for that.

[doddisalegend]

22 days to go until the window shuts wonder how much more business we will do? I still have the feeling the club would like to off load a few to trim the squad its just about finding someone who will actually take the likes of Forster, Boufal, Clasie, Davies and Long. Its looking hopeful on the players we all thought we might lose Bertrand, Cedric, Lemina and I guess the closer to the window the less chance we will sell (well you'd hope so anyway). I'm not convinced we will see anymore arrivals being optimistic perhaps one more before the window?

[SuperSAINT]

Wouldn't surprise me if Lookman was an alternate option for Elyounoussi.
