Summer 2022 Transfer Window

[Suhari]

How does an active, professional athlete fail a medical?

Aren't they basically counting limbs and lungs?

[influx]

When did skysport news turn into Babe Station.  My god

Do you know what figure the offer is by chance?

£25-30m ish I think.

They didn't want to sell him, dicked us around all summer.

Dammit, this could only happen to Sai…. Oh. Never mind.

 

I wonder if he would have passed a medical at Leeds?

That Joe Shields has been a good signing.

Well, i guess he knows what he knows. So far, the well seems pretty fruitful, but does he have a second act?

Sport Republic have quietly had an excellent first summer window too.

This must be our highest net spend ever? All while going under the radar with the media, Saints predicted for relegation, and all signs pointing to that money being used for excellent value players.

Even more so looking at some of the prices there have been this window.

Joe Shields obviously looks to have been a big part of that, but it’s extremely encouraging for him to have been backed this well too.

Are Bournemouth really that skint? I'd have taken 1-2m for him, or less for a loan fee. Sounds like they only wanted to play if it was £0

sounds like we were required to pay him a big chunk of cash, but we said no.

They couldn't sign him on loan because of Stephens 

[Saint_lambden]

13 league games to get through before the January window opens, a month which is even tougher to bring in attacking reinforcements. Let’s hope Che can stay fit m and that Mara can step up as and when required.

Tbh I'm happy to keep Redmond as a squad player. He's bloody frustrating at times but he brings something different. What I am concerned about is Walcott still being on our books.

Yeah, they'll be along shaking buckets for loose change at St Marys soon.

It's almost like they've seen him play. The bastards.

Broja rumours just won't go away.

Walcott to WBA on loan apparently?

With another wide man/winger signed in the last hour he’s not getting anywhere near the bench bar a load of injuries though is he? 
Currently he’s behind Armstrong A, Armstrong S, Moi. Aribo, Mara, and now Edozie.

[saint lard]

Ryan Kent? Must be a wind up. 

[Sfcphilc]

Still thinking back to Ralph's comments when asked about if a striker was incoming. Seemed pretty sure. 

I wonder if that was about Gakpo and that we'd thought we had it wrapped up? He seemed certain. 

[Saints foreva]

Bednarek to Villa officially confirmed.

Bednarek loan to Villa confirmed
