Chez Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 1 hour ago, Saint Garrett said: Off the back of this, I took a look at squads and potentially similar players in the CHO mould...stumbling block for CHO would have been his £120k wages at Chelsea. Some will undoubtedly be out of our range, but stuck them in list anyway... Man City Mctee Oscar Bobb Rico Lewis Kabore Perrone Phillips Chelsea Bettinelli Sanchez Wiley Chalobah Bolwill Chukwuemeka Anjorin Casadei Lavia Ugochukwu Guiu Fofana Broja Arsenal Reiss Nelson Nketiah Liverpool Doak Bobby Clark Bajcetic Kelleher Endo Man Utd Amad Diallo Pellestri Mctominay You missed Carvalho. As we have seemingly bid, that perhaps reinforces that the club are going down that route of wanting that little bit more experience this time around.

I presume we have made a few enquiries about keepers, but if we have, there haven't been any leaks.

Midfield_General Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 22 minutes ago, Give it to Ron said: 🚨 Southampton, along with Ipswich and Leicester, are interested in Tottenham midfielder Oliver Skipp (23) #saintsfc @TeleFootball For the right price he could be a good fit for us. Young but not a kid, English which we know Russ likes, played 74 times for Spurs so has decent top-level experience, and in a position we need to strengthen. Also flexible as he's a proper DM but is also very comfortable at LB. Probably considered not quite good enough to be a regular for Spurs first team, but then neither was Winks, and he's gone on to do very well. Not sure how good he is on the ball, but Spurs fans seem to think he's tidy if unspectacular and generally speak pretty well of him. Quite hope that this one has legs, as he feels like the sort of signing that is realistic, probably not ridiculous money in terms of either transfer fee or wages, has some potential upside in terms of future value, and would actually improve our first team. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

le_tiss Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 7 hours ago, Turkish said: we spent more than that though, the £75m was just what we spent on young players, that doesn't even include Bella=-Kotchap who was also 20 and played most of his football in the Budesliga 2, but at least he contributed even if his attitude is questionable. the difference between 14/15 and 22/23 was we signed good, experienced players who went straight into the first team. Bertrand, Tadic, Long, Forster, Pelle, Mane, Alderwierld on loan. All of them with plenty of first team football under their belts, all of them had played at international level, some of them had played in the champions league. They weren't kids who had never kicked a ball in mens football before who needed 2, 3, 4 years to develop.

Gone are the days of picking up ready made top half PL players for 10-15m. Yep. And he was even getting in the chelsea side occasionally under poch .. bags of potential there.

Because we could never, ever expect to do better than him, and it’s only fair that we should wait until he’s at least 24 before we can expect any sort of meaningful return? Righto 👍 We're a team that attracts young talent by giving them a chance to play top level football. RM has been very complimentary about him as a young player. He's a young lad, from another country, trying to make a step up. He may not, but has he been given enough time?? That's your opinion...fair enough. I'd give him til Jan or loan him out, just to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
