BotleySaint Posted 6 August, 2018 Share Posted 6 August, 2018 A very good signing for Fulham. Arguably better than all of our CB's. Could have provided RB cover also. Does seems strange we aren't in for him really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodsaint Posted 6 August, 2018 Share Posted 6 August, 2018 Hardly set the world alight when he played for arsenal. Though he was often used as a CB when hes best at RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the saint in winchester Posted 6 August, 2018 Share Posted 6 August, 2018 Fulham about to sign Calum Chambers on loan. A very good signing for Fulham. Arguably better than all of our CB's. Could have provided RB cover also. Shouldn't we at least put in a note of interest? I know it would be difficult to land him, as another London club have offered, so less disruption to his home life ... but I feel we should try to get him.

Matthew Le God Posted 6 August, 2018 Share Posted 6 August, 2018 maybe he dosent want to come back cause Les let him go too easilly in the first place? That is a daft idea, why would he be annoyed at moving from Southampton to Arsenal? He was more than likely delighted to do so and if he really didn't want to go no-one was holding a gun to his head forcing him to sign a contract.

Heisenberg Posted 6 August, 2018 Share Posted 6 August, 2018 Saints have not for quite a few years helped other clubs develop their players. It doesn't benefit us long term. Agreed. Our model is to buy them, take all the risks and if they do prove themselves well sell to top 6. If they fail we get stuck or sometimes give them payrises So we do develop players for other clubs just in a more costly way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenridge Posted 6 August, 2018 Share Posted 6 August, 2018 Saints have not for quite a few years helped other clubs develop their players. It doesn't benefit us long term. What are you on about? No ones talking about ‘developing’ him. He’s 23 not 17. The question is would he improve the 1st team where we are desperately short of quality at CB and options at RB and the answer is an unequivocal yes.

Lighthouse Posted 6 August, 2018 Share Posted 6 August, 2018 Have we really sunk this low? People are actually envious of signing Calum Chambers on loan. I'm not against us loaning someone in principal, so long as they're good enough to play for us. I bet if we were offered the chance to 'develop' Mbappe, nobody would be complaining that we're getting mugged off developing PSGs players. On a different note, I see Courtois has come over all Virgil and wants out of Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larryhagman Posted 7 August, 2018 Share Posted 7 August, 2018 Mbappe a bit injury prone for me. Never looks that great, just another bouffal in my books. Couldn't afford his wages, and would never come. Would prefer to see us giving Simms or Gallagher a chance, rather than buying another expensive flop.

SuperSAINT Posted 7 August, 2018 Share Posted 7 August, 2018 'Boro target Bolasie. BORO CHASE BOLASIE Middlesbrough have launched an ambitious move for Everton winger Yannick Bolasie, Sky Sports News understands. The 29-year-old is surplus to requirements at Goodison Park and is available for around £15m, despite joining the Toffees two years ago for £26m. Boro boss Tony Pulis knows Bolasie from his time as manager of Crystal Palace. We understand the DR Congo international is also interesting former club Palace and Burnley, but Boro have money to spend after selling Ben Gibson and Patrick Bamford for a combined £25m this week.

Sean Dyche is becoming increasingly frustrated by the situation and wants a new striker in before the deadline - it's thought Rodriguez is keen on a move back to the Premier League in his home town, but is prepared to stay and try to get Albion back into the top division if a deal can’t be done.
