They're directly quoting the Athletic Article they cant be bothered to link to. Can Southampton really hope to survive without securing a prolific No 9? - The Athletic

never felt more in need of a block button.....

Transfermarkt says ABK has his relatives as his agents.... So hopefully he has a talented brother

FFS. some people. This isnt rocket science. We have 18 games and Tino is still not an option to cover RB / RWB We are spending £750k on someone that NJ trusts to cover that role if KWP gets injured or suspended.

Winning 7 games from 18 is not impossible if we play like we did against City or Palace.

I want to see the new signings out tonight Bazunu KWP DCC Salisu Peraud Lavia Diallo Alcaraz JWP Orsic Mara

We can't defend set pieces. Stephens is shorter than all our other CB's.

This is a tactic designed to reduce other clubs asking prices for number 9's.

Love this...

Personally think the @admin should change the title of this thread to "Nathan Jones"

Stats are fantastic. xG just looks subjective though, and therefore, as a stat, its useless.

So xG is essentially a stat showing how many Sitters you missed.... I agree with Turkish. B*llocks and simply nudge theory for gamblers.

Man City last night proved that no team is error free. The important thing is we score more to cover any potential issues

In most fair-minded peoples mind. The answer to that is obviously "Correct". I wonder what the etymology of the word Supporter is?

its not going to happen, so why bother calling for it. Get behind the team FFS

And maybe that's why we're bring new player in? Maybe?

FFS.... We're where we are as we haven't been able to score and we made stupid mistakes in defence. Our first two mid-season buys are purposefully players who can create opportunities out of nothing. They've been brought in to fill a specific gap in creativity, and that only comes from people knowing specifically where the issue is.

I know he's only been at Munchengladbach since the summer, but Ko Itakaru would surely tick multiple boxes. Former Man City. International Central Defender.

Must thank @Master Bates for giving us the opportunity to say we don't want stripes. Half and half as above, or quarts. Stripes work well on a deck chair, not a football kit.

So we're buying in compatriots. Orsic (Caleta Car) Alcaraz (Caballero) Easy for assimilation into the squad.

Worth noting that Lavia and Moffi (and Aribo) use Elite Sports Management. Stories regarding both Moffi and Lavia are likely to be intertwined and part of negotiations and/or leverage.

he played as one of a front two in most Champions league matches for Dinamo this season. Including the one against Chelsea.
