LuckyNumber7 Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 Never seen Danso play but I signed him for Saints on Fifa and he was pretty good! Young, strong and pacey. No idea what he's like in real life but in Ralph we trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Matty 76 Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 Very happy with the sound of him, Bundesliga fans I know don't think he'll be cheap. Really hope we can get this across the line and we've just fallen a DM short of a brilliant window. This makes it a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKD Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 From Germany I believe Not been given a name but told He’s coming from Germany, so this lad fits the bill. I assumed it would have been one of the 2 we’ve been linked to from RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verlaine1979 Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 How? Probably a deal we've being trying to get over the line and CA going may just have given us the flexibility to do it. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk I just meant the idea that there's 'no value' in the market. There's always value if your scouting is good enough - and so hopefully this last minute signing will prove! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 If Austin (not a huge fee/savings in wages all things considered) was a precondition to getting a deal done, it just shows what constraints we’re working under. you don't think Austin was on fortune here? West Ham shirked at £100k a week. A tiny transfer fee meant he'd have been on a massive wages. Or did you mean that we probably had to pay him a massive pay off to leave and earn less at WBA, thus reducing the saving we made by offloading him?

shurlock Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 You do realise we have been tracking him for many years, the fact that Ralph is Austrian is pure coincidence. Like we did with Carrillo No doubt he’s in our database and some grunt has assembled a bit video footage, as we’ve probably done with hundreds of players (the costs of ‘following’ a player aren’t prohibitively high). Doesn’t mean he was a serious target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verlaine1979 Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 If Austin (not a huge fee/savings in wages all things considered) was a precondition to getting a deal done, it just shows what constraints we’re working under. Indeed, easy to forget that our last accounts still showed a profit of almost £30m. Since then we've lost some big earners, replacing with much lower-profile signings, and player trading has been pretty much cost-neutral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
