Certainly has improved since he's been here so if anything it might be a loan. After which we can see another amusing Burnley #freetella style campaign. 1
spyinthesky Posted Monday at 09:55 Posted Monday at 09:55 1 hour ago, woodsaint1 said: If he wanted to sign a new contract with us he would have done so already. Being a free agent means he can get a bigger pay day as clubs arent paying a fee for him. I guess he (or his agent) is looking for a Prem side to take him on where he could demand higher wages as no transfer fee involved. I believe he is currently some distance away from the top earners at SMS and is likely to have a % reduction (40-50%?) when Saints are relegated. Real shame as he has been an excellent signing for us and seems a decent chap. 1
goodymatt Posted Monday at 09:55 Posted Monday at 09:55 (edited) Leicester closing in on Woyo Coulibaly from Parma. Surely that ends their KWP interest? Although I expect them to be joining us in the championship so I don’t see why he’d have left us to go there anyway? I’d imagine a few PL clubs would be interested in him as a free agent, can’t see him signing a new contract. If we had survived this season, he might have been convinced.

Dman Posted Monday at 11:10 Posted Monday at 11:10 12 minutes ago, goodymatt said: I don't see any way he comes back in. Unless Downes' injury is more serious than previously let on (wasn't it claimed to be a dead leg?). With Les getting more game time and strating to show the promise we expected to see from him, Downes to come back and Airbo (dare i say even Smallbone) we have plenty of cover in CM. Let him see his time out there and come back next season as a vitial part of our midfield next to Downes. 4
goodymatt Posted Monday at 11:41 Posted Monday at 11:41 Looks like Burnley have enquired about loaning Manning only.
goodymatt Posted Monday at 11:48 Posted Monday at 11:48 (edited) £7m for KWP is a steal, even with only 6 months left. Edited Monday at 11:50 by goodymatt

Depends on how highly they rate that Wellington, but hes injured currently, manning is our only natural left footed wingback, so I'd say no deal. Playing KWP there limits our width down the left. He either plays on the right or not at all for me. 1

Playing KWP there limits our width down the left. He either plays on the right or not at all for me. Think I would keep Manning unless Welington is seen as first choice too. Welington has played for the u21s vs Fulham so hopefully not far away from being available to the first team. 1

Chez Posted Monday at 13:32 Posted Monday at 13:32 5 hours ago, ErwinK1961 said: The only conceivable way this happens is if we agree to include a relatively low release clause for the summer (£7-10m?). Stops him going for free and doesn’t take a huge offer for him to leave. But after he didn’t get his move last time after relegation, can’t see him agreeing to do that. Plus, he’ll get a handsome signing on fee whoever he goes to if he leaves on a free. The only reason he signs for us, is if no one else in the Prem fancies him. If that is the case - when he is availabe for free - then a low release clause won't be of much point.

We also have Taylor and Larios, so simply on a numbers basis, too many players at left back for a Championship side to be paying. CB stockpiling is even worse of course, although if we are now always playing three at the back a little less so. 1

You'd think Juric would want to see him play to know if he is in his plans for next season. I guess Charles being out on loan means he will play games and Juric or whoeever can watch those games to assess him.

FarehamSaintJames Posted Monday at 14:32 Posted Monday at 14:32 I’d be amazed if KWP stayed. Ryan Manning I would happily keep, he’s been one of the better players this season. 2 1

CB stockpiling is even worse of course, although if we are now always playing three at the back a little less so. You're right, although I doubt Larios will ever return from his series of injuries which have been over 2 years now. Maybe his only hope is to change his name to Lazarus. Charlie Taylor is better as a LB in a back 4, or LCB, so could play a role complementing a LWB such as Manning or Welington.
Badger Posted Monday at 15:22 Posted Monday at 15:22 2 hours ago, Gloucester Saint said: Probably wearing a protective boot 👢 Yes of course. The medics who gave Steward a clean bill of health would never pick that up in a medical.
benjii Posted Monday at 15:56 Posted Monday at 15:56 Get Meghoma back on loan next year? Doubt he'll get many Prem minutes. If we kept Manning / Taylor / Larios, we'd have to sign another left back on promotion anyway.

bugenhagen Posted Monday at 18:05 Posted Monday at 18:05 If Wellington was good enough/an upgrade he would not have gone to the U21... He is not here to play, he is (like, oh, so many others) not good enough to strengthen our starting 11. Probably end up on loan somewhere. 1 2

The interview with him when his signing was announced stated that he wasn't able to complete the Brazilian season due to injury but was working hard to regain fitness. The implication was that once he was fit again he would be challenging for a place in the 1st team. Your suggestion may yet prove correct, but at the moment that's not the message coming from the club. He also has far more senior experience than Joachim Kayi Sanda so I'd be surprised if we don't see him in the Saints team this season particularly as we are light on strong LWBs. I guess that we'll find out in the next month or so. 2

Kieran Maguire on the radio earlier said that the clubs who were skirting the lines were the ones doing the dodgy academy player sales in the summer (Forest, Villa, Newcastle etc) but they all believe they’ve complied. He also said that clubs should actively look to break FFP rules to stay up, because the financial benefit far outweighs the penalty.

But he said that the inability of the PL and EFL to clearly lay out their own rules gave them an out before, and may do so again. The not at all suspicious high value player trading in the summer was designed to get the others off the hook.
