Both would be nice.

I'd like us to sign Woodman.

What a pointless article. He's obviously not going anywhere.

Might have been with Downes maybe?

I agree with that but his responsibility is mitigated by the fact that we had no money. At the time I knew quite a few people who worked at the club and he was a popular guy.

Sounds like Martin is young, hungry and therefore guaranteed to improve.

Not entirely Semmen's fault of course. Despite relegation, I think we can consider ourselves fortunate to have the owner that we have.

Great article. I'd love to see his laptop!

When we got in the europa league I couldn't believe that some of our games weren't sold out by other saints fans. I went to Holland twice, Italy and Prague because I predicted (accurately) that we weren't going to get there again any time soon. Watching us play around Europe was miles better than seeing us against United or Everton for the 100th time.

Salisu? Wouldn't be a huge surprise.

There's absolutely zero evidence that we Tella is unhappy and would stink the place out, it's a myth cooked up by Burnley fans. If we sold him for 9 million it would be a disgrace but we won't be doing so.

Correct.

Better than Tella and more proven in the championship? I doubt it.

It's not even if he wants to go. If he doesn't down tools and refuse to play then he should be playing here next year in my opinion. He could potentially fire us to promotion.

What makes the likes of Salisu worth as much as Tella? Imo Tella is worth loads more, particularly to us as a team who is currently struggling to create and score.

My main frustration is that we've played him for most of preseason and him leaving now is going to create a fairly big hole. It's unfortunate that Burnley didn't just pony up the money. Unlike some of the others he's clearly worth at least 15 million.

Walcott, big willy and Elyounoussi gone as well so we have lost some. Absolutely humongous squad we had though.

We don't want a youngster. Proven experienced keeper only please.

No he left to gain first team experience. He now has that and if he ends up with poch or even at Liverpool then he will be playing most weeks.

Cheers for that. Not that bad a start then really although could have been better. I'd be absolutely gutted if we lost Tella for a small amount. Anyone we buy in to replace him will be a risk whereas he is a proven performer in the championship.

What's the feeling? Is he going? Obviously not for that amount but personally I would reject anything below 20.

Yes but worth bearing in mind that if we lose say three of our first five games, it will be a bit of a battle for automatic promotion. Not impossible of course but we could mess things up early doors.

Depends what you mean by dreadful. Didn't they lose 4 games all year?

Probably depends if a prem team wants him. If another championship team gets him then it would be a big disappointment.

To be fair, pretty much all of them are saying him and one other player are their only two prem quality players. Probably not fussed though because they've done fine without him since his injury. I really wanted Piroe but maybe he doesn't represent good value.
