Pilchards Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 I reckon we are watching the situation regarding strikers that won’t feature in the first team of a premiership club. Step forward either Welbeck, Sturrridge or Giroud. Already Sturridge has had 45 minutes for Liverpool so maybe we had a scout watching?

Wade Garrett Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 Welbeck would be an unbelievable signing. I reckon we should try and sign Bob Latchford as well to supply the knock-downs for him.
shurlock Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 Giroud? Get real pal. Took the words out of my mouth pal.
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 Giroud - no thanks. Massively overshadowed by both Griezmann AND Mbappe in the French team.
Batman Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 Giroud - no thanks. Massively overshadowed by both Griezmann AND Mbappe in the French team. yeah, them two are crap
Matthew Le God Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 Giroud - no thanks. Massively overshadowed by both Griezmann AND Mbappe in the French team. That is a strange reason not to want a player. The two you named are among the best in the world, hardly something to use as a stick to beat Giroud with. Pointless anyway as he is unlikely to be joining Saints any time soon.
SuperSAINT Posted 20 July, 2018 Author Posted 20 July, 2018 What about Patrick Roberts? Thought he was off to Leicester, but hasn't gone there yet. Left footed but plays on right-hand side.
Bewildered Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 Not sure an attacker who scored 0 goals in the SPL last season is the cure for our goalscoring woes

SuperSAINT Posted 20 July, 2018 Author Posted 20 July, 2018 Nixon saying he will run something Saints related Sunday. Last couple of things he's run has been Boufal to Nice & Ings to Saints, so set your anticipation level depending how you feel about those 2 stories. I'm unsure if it's an 'in' or 'out' story. He's now saying: Q: Can you say if it is a incoming or outgoing. A: Poss out. But making way for an in if it comes off.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 Boufal out to Celta was out of the blue. Maybe one in from Celta as a result - Sisto?
SuperSAINT Posted 20 July, 2018 Author Posted 20 July, 2018 Boufal out to Celta was out of the blue. Maybe one in from Celta as a result - Sisto? It's probably going to be a Gallagher story.

Dazza82 Posted 20 July, 2018 Posted 20 July, 2018 We should be all over Rondon for me, would do well in a side that doesnt leave him isolated Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Like for like but on the right side. Surely that rules out Sisto and I think Promes was a lefty too?
Gingeletiss Posted 21 July, 2018 Posted 21 July, 2018 Like for like but on the right side. Surely that rules out Sisto and I think Promes was a lefty too? We have Redmond and Sims who play on the right.
Pilchards Posted 21 July, 2018 Posted 21 July, 2018 We have Redmond and Sims who play on the right. Never seen Redmond play on the right.
Gingeletiss Posted 21 July, 2018 Posted 21 July, 2018 Never seen Redmond play on the right. As maybe, but he is right footed, and SHOULD play on the right, according to the majority.
SKD Posted 21 July, 2018 Posted 21 July, 2018 Alireza Jahanbakhsh, please. Good player. Going to Brighton, I think.
SKD Posted 21 July, 2018 Posted 21 July, 2018 I reckon the club are going to Gamble on sticking with the CF’s we currently have and just buy creativity around them. On paper Austin / Gabbi good enough, but who knows if they’ll produce. Boufal to Celta Vigo interesting RE sisto. Personally can’t see them having them both.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 21 July, 2018 Posted 21 July, 2018 Don’t think we’ll see another striker...Austin, Long, Gabbi and now Gallagher seemingly ready to push on is probably seen by the club as enough. With Ely, Redmond, JWP, Sims, Davis and Armstrong as AM’s we do look very lightweight in supporting attack, although we should not underestimate the ability of Romeu, Lemina and Hojberg to get forward. It’s that initial ability to break at pace by 3-4 players that seems to be the missing component. I hope that the next signing will go a long way to plug that gap.
SuperSAINT Posted 21 July, 2018 Author Posted 21 July, 2018 Good player. Going to Brighton, I think. That's depressing!

skintsaint Posted 22 July, 2018 Posted 22 July, 2018 Josef Martinez hattrick tonight for Atlanta. Hmmmmph. And we're after Ings. His goalscoring record in Europe is pretty average. Scoring goals in the MLS isn't something to get too hard about.

SuperSAINT Posted 22 July, 2018 Author Posted 22 July, 2018 Welbeck and Lookman Would be great but where's the £35m coming from for them?
Crab Lungs Posted 22 July, 2018 Posted 22 July, 2018 His goalscoring record in Europe is pretty average. Scoring goals in the MLS isn't something to get too hard about. I look at how effective he is on the pitch, not through just simple stats - though they can tell a story. In this case, I think you’ll find his record is bit skewed in Europe owing to the amount of sub appearances he had.

Window Cleaner Posted 22 July, 2018 Posted 22 July, 2018 Didn’t realise transfer window closes on 9th August this year. Did everyone know that? Yes, the squad you have on opening day is about all you have until January. Will stop desperation buying for ridiculous sums by teams who lose a couple of August matches perhaps.
