Badger Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 I would not be surprised to see us signing a decent Asian player given our ownership. I would also like to see Boufal given another chance with his pace and risk taking encouraged rather than stifled. We've been linked with Ritsu Doan who plays for Gronigen (links further up this thread), but why would signing a Japanese, or even Korean, player appeal to Gao ? Not likely to increase the profile in China which was said to be one of his hopes on buying into the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 Given the global nature of the market nowadays it's really hard to know enough - there will always be a curve ball out there. Irrespective of how they turned out I'm not sure how many of us had heard of mane, pelle, tadic, Ely, vesti, Maya, gaston, Carrillo, boufal etc. All I know is that I want a reasonably experienced centre back with a mouth on him capable of giving some leadership and organisation, and we desperately need some pace up front. A centre forward with some physical presence, but still able to actually move (and score every now and then, obviously ...) would be a plus. Right back is the trickiest position. Not so good he expects to start in front of valery, stopping his progress, but good enough to play when called upon. To that end, I think a loan might work. Plus I suspect if valery has a good season he'll be a wanted man next summer, so could defer the proper replacement for a year (while saving some cash). Chances are, at least one of the signings will be someone I've very limited, if any, knowledge of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintwbu Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 For me we need a real line-leading centre forward, we’ve never been the same since we lost Pelle. Appreciate Pelle wasn’t the most mobile so may not have been ideal for Ralph, but someone who is quick but powerful with it is a necessity imo. No surprise that we’re linked with Che Adams because from the little i’ve seen of him that’s what he can bring, a real tough opponent for any defender. Austin, Ings, Long do not have the presence to be a consistent threat in this league imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We signed Forster, and gave him what, a 6 year deal for £90k per week? why not pay someone better and pay them the same contract but over 4 years ffs Yes I agree tbh- I actually would prefer we change our wage structure slightly- any incoming transfers should not be offered more than £40k a week- and if that reduces the pool of players we get to choose from then so be it- we have players like Elyounoussi on like £60k a week, who if I recall correctly said something during the international break about how that has set him up for life. Bednarek I think is an example on the lower end of the wage scale (like £20-30k) in comparison to his peers That way, it gives a sense of progression and maybe a motivation to improve to get on even bigger wages, either with us or for a top 6 club, and equally, should the player not perform, then well it makes it easier to offload too- and perhaps we might be doing that anyway with the way Ralph went on about buying players who would be 'on their 2nd contract' If they do perform fairly consistently well after say 2 seasons, then yeah sure, offer them £80k-100k (Or sell them!)- I feel that is the balance we need- superstars who warrant that pay (like Palace do with Zaha or how Leicester do with Vardy), and the rest all on £40k a week or less. I guess that might even be the agenda soon anyway- a solid 13/14 players and then the rest from the academy on £20k or less. Stephens/Hoedt/Elyounoussi/Boufal/Austin and other players on bench/on loan should never be earning more than a starting 11 player, and as a club we have far too many of those.

We can either afford a small number of league-proven mediocre players on high wages, or we can afford a larger pool of young players from other leagues on lower wages, some of whom will at least have the potential to transcend mediocrity.

Pilchards Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 That's a youtube video of him with a horrible filter and a bad generic 'stoner rock' guitar loop. He looks pretty quick and fairly strong on the ball. Can't really tell anything else about him really as the Pro League isn't exactly the strongest. 8 goals in 33 there probably works out to about 4-5 premier league goals a season if he played every match, I'd guess. So possibly about as effective as Redmond if he can settle into the league. Seems a bit expensive for that sort of goal return, I suppose that we are gambling that Ralph can push him to significantly improve. Looks good. Definitely a Charlie Austin type player!

Dr. Kucho Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 Whilst watching the final off the Dutch FA cup, between Ajax and Willem II, I finally got to see Alexander Isak in action. He is on loan at Willem II from Dortmund and a striker with pace and good technical skill. One to look out for and maybe put an offer In for. Mind you, Ajax are also interested and they have been doing some good business already in signing talented players for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ralph was surprised, then I'm surprised he was. In January we were on course to finish with a total of 42 first team players (including those on loan and those whose contract was due to end this season, assuming that includes Flanagan, plus academy players who have played for the first team). So far we has lost 3, Gabbi, Davis and Seager, leaving 39, only 4 of who will count as under 21 next season (ramsay, obafemi, Johnson, valery). Only one more (Flanagan) is due to have his contract end, so 34 over 21 players before we even start. We need to shift 9 (sell or loan) to reach 25, 4 more to bring in the four players we all think we know we need (rb, CB, winger, cf) and that would still leave a working first team squad of 29 including existing known youth prospects, let alone ones that haven't broken through yet (Vokins, smallbone, whoever). We need to shift about 15 by my reckoning. Edited 6 May, 2019 by Chewy Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Wayman Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 Le Soir in Belgium are reporting we have offered €23.5m for Standard Liege's Moussa Djenepo. https://www.lesoir.be/222439/article/2019-05-06/mercato-southampton-offre-235-millions-pour-djenepo Never heard of him, but Google says he has 11 goals in 38 games this season (3 in 5 in the Europa League) and plays in any of the three positions behind the striker. Not long ago, the rumor announced Southampton's interest in Victor Osimhen, the Wolfsburg striker on loan to Charleroi with an option to buy. An option that Sporting was quick to raise for an amount of 3.5 million, well aware of the added value it could achieve. And this should be the case since Lille would be willing to extend between 12 and 13 million to acquire the Lagos striker, leaving a profit of 4 to 5 million for the Zebras since the German club must receive a percentage on the capital gain. If the Nigerian goes to France, it's probably because Southampton has other aims. And the eyes of the "Saints" is rather than one hundred kilometers from Mambourg, or Sclessin where this season broke a certain Moussa Djenepo. Negotiations would have taken place last week to consider the transfer of the Mali Eagle to a club that, during the 2017-2018 winter transfer window, had received $ 84 million for the sale of Virgil van Dijk in Liverpool. If this transfer is confirmed, it would be the second largest outgoing transfer from Belgium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephens/Hoedt/Elyounoussi/Boufal/Austin and other players on bench/on loan should never be earning more than a starting 11 player, and as a club we have far too many of those. The problem with paying "no more than £40k", you'll be buying players who are not good enough to play in this league, or certainly won't be yet. Be aware that Targett, Stephens, Gallagher are reportedly on more than £40k / week, and pretty sure that Bednarek will be earning more than that too. To sign players who are going to make a difference to our team, you're going to be paying them £60k minimum, unless they're coming from an obscure country and don't have anyone else in for them. Our problem with our wage bill, is that we have such a bloated squad, instead of having 20 players on an average of 50/60K, we've probably got more like 30.

I'd be surprised if a right back is a priority, I think Valery is pretty much nailed on first choice now, they seem to like him a lot and yes he makes mistakes but I think they are willing to accept that as long as he keeps improving. I then think Ramsey (who is also highly rated) and JWP will provide the cover. Presuming of course we can shift Cedric. I just can't see us paying like £15-20 million for a right back to shove Valery out of the team after they gave him a new contract and said how impressed they have been with him. Especially as I think more focus is going to be put on developing our own now we have a manager who can improve players. I'd reckon clear focus is probably on centre-back as we need a real quality player there, then a quality pacey attacker, maybe two (one more striker focused), then I reckon another DM as well.

I tend to agree (both with the theory we don't need one and the theory that we won't think we need one), but it did sound like Maehle was pretty close to coming here in January, and didn't because his club didn't want to sell mid season. Someone else has also said that Hasenhuttl likes to rotate his full backs, so not out of the question he might bring another one in. If Valery is playing half the games that still helps him develop, and if we have two who are both good we might be able to make a profit on one like we did with Clyne & Chambers.
