  1. It's also entirely possible that Spartak will agree to let him go for less than the amount specified in the release clause if they feel that it's still a good deal for them and the player makes it clear he wants to go.

     

    As if a release clause for a player in a Russian club would be in euros anyway. All of the figures bandied about are pure guesswork.

  2. personally I think Deulofeu is average. He struggled to get in the Everton side, was lightweight and didn't offer anywhere near enough quality. I was amazed Barca brought him back into the fold, but after a quick look they quite clearly have seen he ain't all that.

     

    Just seems to get shunted around at every other window.

  3. Lots of F5 tomorrow as usual on deadline day then

     

    Don't know how productive that'll be Saintswise. Usual January window, big clubs signing big players, little clubs signing cast-offs and middling clubs scrubbing around in the hope of finding a not too expensive gem somewhere or other.

  4. According to Patred on the UI he's off to Everton so I don't think we'll need to learn how to pronounce his name, we can just call him ****re

     

     

    Don't see what Everton would want with Promes. Anyway Patred is a bit of a serial failure when it comes to knowing anything about anything really. One of those people who just make crap up to seem important.

  5. I cannot get into my head how people will sit at home, and make transfer rumours up on twitter. I mean, what makes you want to do that? I can think of a lot more things I could be doing if I was bored one evening at home.

     

    Incognito mode...

     

    Same sort of reason as people who pay for bot followers to make their Twitter account look like it has a lot of followers. It's the modern day equivalent of making up bullshîte stories in pubs to give themselves an important sort of chap aura.

  6. It wouldn't surprise me re the centre back. Just because it isnt all over the media is doesnt mean to say we aren't trying to find one. I am just surprised that Gardos hasn't been moved on already as he seems surplus to requirements. Yoshi and Stephens are ok as back up but neither is good enough to start regularly.

     

     

    Problem with moving on Gardos and his ilk is that no-one wants to pay them anywhere near what we do.

  7. And now W-Ham want´s to sign Spiderman as well according to SKY. So with him and Pelle are the turning into Liverhampton light ; )

     

    That interest was reported back in December though. Don't think he's overenamoured of Allardyce.

  8. We do have a history of signing players who haven't been starting regularly for their club. But, if we get Quincy Promes, we really will have a player who can hit the ground running. He has been playing whole games regularly in Russia and scoring goals.

     

    But the Russian League has been on winter break for a while now. Last game was about 7 weeks ago I think. Don't start again until March.

  9. According to this, Monaco will be replacing Carillo with Slimani for €20M...

    I’m a little surprised that we did not go for Slimani instead of Carillo. Perhaps Slimani is too old at 29 to fit the profile of a record Saints signing, but he had a decent goal scoring record with Sporting before becoming a Leicester bench warmer, and has experience playing in this league.

     

    In the Equipe piece about it all it states that Carrillo will be replaced by "un joueur de qualité superieure" whether than means the likes of Slimani I just couldn't say. I just do not understand this deal at all. One would think we're desperate to get money into Monaco because Carrillo just isn't worth 22 million euros.

  10. I just don't see how the bloke is worth 22 million euros. Perhaps I'll be surprised by some quality or other that no one has seen before. The only good thing is that the pound has crept up a wee bit these last couple of days so he's probably no more expensive than he was, in pound in you pocket terms anyway, last week.

  11. I’d be saying sorry to your contact at the club... you might have just got him right in the sh!t!!

     

     

    Don't think he has one, just a "friend" who's noticed how gullible he is and winds him up from time to time. Don't think this is his first fake news blooper.

  12. I think we all know that we will probably sign this Carillo fella and we will hear reports of deparately trying so sign promes all the way up to the last day. Then we will get the tweet from Blackmore that our bsuiness is all done tonight on the last day.

     

    Carrillo is on Monaco's injured list. Whether he's actually injured or not I just couldn't say.
