Tamesaint Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 Relax Ron. Not writing the boy off, just doing some light research. Have never seen him play, so only have the opinion of others just now. Never having seen him play is never normally a reason for you to diss a player is it. Normally just having them put on a Saints shirt makes you slag them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusic Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 Mepham is a good, young CB and has good experience in a competitive league for a 21yo. Both Bournemouth and Leicester tried to get him in the summer. Perhaps a sign of the change of direction in transfer policy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 I have absolutely no issue with signing promising young players, but with Stephens, bednarek, vesti, hoedt (?) p, Jones, Ramsay, o'connor plus a couple of other youth prospects, do we really need another young centre back? Especially if we're going to revert to a back 4 as per Ralph's preferred formation? Not saying we're not, but I'd much rather focus on out wide and up front (and possibly right back if Cedric wants out). And if we do want to improve the defence I think we need experience, both for the here and now, and also to help develop our current crop of youngsters who show varying degrees of promise.

Doesn't really gel with Ralph's long-term talk, but Gabbi & Davis leaving have free'd up enough wages for a Cahill loan (if we wanted to go down that path).

saintrich Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 Regarding Chris Mepham - Watched the 1st half of Brentford vs Middlebrough on sky in November (0-0 at h-t but lost 2-1) and they mentioned that he was highly rated, so I kept a keen eye on him (albeit while my 1 yr old son was running around frantically) Can't really comment too much defensively, as Boro were still managed by Pulis, so were naturally unadventurous in attack, but he seemed to be handling the long ball ok. Going forward though he looked VERY comfortable, was surging forward with the ball well into the Boro half on a handful of occasions (was like watching a VVD playing for Celtic YouTube compilation).

Badger Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 Mepham, or Fry, are good signings for the future, but we need someone capable of improving things now. Perhaps they would, but I expect Ralph is looking to add experience to the team at this point. The name from Leipzig mentioned (Orban) is their current captain, so if we are in for him then it looks like we're seeking someone to organise things at the back and on the pitch. A quality lacking. Can't see Lepizig releasing their captain mid-season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajjuk Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 Still find the centre-back thing odd to be honest, yes ideally we need strengthening there long term, but right now I think Vestergaard, Bednerak, Stephens and Yoshida are good enough, with Jones there for injuries (presuming we ship Hoedt). I'd be more worried that are only real pacey attacking mid is basically Redmond, beyond him we have Armstrong, Moe who has done nothing and then we are either playing JWP there or one of the youngsters. Summer yes, we need CB, DM, AM, Striker, but priority right now would IMO be the AM, who can play Ralfs system and probably put Armstrong out of the side.

Charlie Wayman Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 would not fit Ralph's stylee. you can tell what he wants is just speed everywhere in the front 4 attacking spots- he had that at Leipzig with Werner, Poulsen, Bruma, and a really good playmaker in Forsberg. and rightly so! all the best attacking players in the world have some sort of speed and pace except the odd one/two target men like Kane and Cavani- and don't get me wrong they aren't that slow either. if we were going to only buy 1 player, then id rather we went and bought another redmond type winger but can play up front too if needed. Don't we still have Boufal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
