Smirking_Saint Posted 17 August, 2022 Share Posted 17 August, 2022 13 minutes ago, Saint Garrett said: I believe he has contacts at the club. No idea if this is true though. He has but not sure how close to the grain they are I know a few people at the club, transfer stuff is locked down pretty tight these days so Id say he might be right on Ramos but its not 100% reliable… for instance, he probably knew where Semmens ‘was‘ but not necessarily how close we are with Ramos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smirking_Saint Posted 17 August, 2022 Share Posted 17 August, 2022 2 hours ago, Chez said: yeah, its the £25m-30m figure that was bandied about that throws me a little. It just seems too high a price for a player without any games under his belt, so its maybe not accurate, but if it was, then we must see him as being bloody amazing and thus we'd go for the loan even without an option to buy. I don’t think we were ever ready to drop north of 20m on Delap tbf and I do think he is better than the championship personally, be interesting watching his development 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlanta Saint Posted 17 August, 2022 Share Posted 17 August, 2022 1 hour ago, Saint Matty 76 said: Decided to have a go at the Saints version of this, after the United one on MNF and having seen a few clubs ones bounce around today. Boufal, Elyounoussi and Vestergaard felt a bit harsh to put into Red. Probably got £1m of joy out of Cuco from the Arsenal goal as well (fees are from Transfermarkt, a few don't seem accurate to me either before I get MLG'd). Che and Gabbiadini could probably swap places too, but the cup final means the latter has to be where he is for me. Bednarek is probably technically green given the fee and the amount of service he's given, but I couldn't put him there. Anything glaringly wrong? Left out this years for obvious reasons. Cuco Martina's goal v Arsenal was worth every penny of that fee. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 17 August, 2022 Share Posted 17 August, 2022 Can’t remember the last time we supposedly went head to head with another premier league club and won, apart from maybe Tino last year with Brighton.

revolution saint Posted 17 August, 2022 Share Posted 17 August, 2022 Goal every 2.5 games last season in Portugal ain’t bad even if it is for Benfica. Already got 4 in 2 in the champions league play offs against Mjitland (spelling?). Looks like a similar player to Broja but maybe not the explosive pace. Seems to be decent in the air which is good.
