SuperSAINT Posted 16 April, 2017 Share Posted 16 April, 2017 shyte. hopefully just agent talk I would probably only take one player from Boro, and he's £30m+ so that isn't happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 16 April, 2017 Share Posted 16 April, 2017 Well, based on the thread title, I'd be happy if we picked up Fabianski from Swansea if they go down. ! Thank god you're not in charge of recruiting, he's shocking. Even worse than Forster Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Posted 16 April, 2017 Share Posted 16 April, 2017 I disagree - Obviously I don't want it to happen but if the club received an offer upwards of £60m for him, I can understand why they'd accept. That is a huge sum of money and could enable us to buy a suitable replacement plus 2/3 high quality players for the squad. Like boufal and hooijberg. We are a laughing stock for selling so many.

UpweySaint Posted 17 April, 2017 Share Posted 17 April, 2017 Ryan Sessegnon. Great prospect and out of our league already Quite possibly but, if he believe the Fulham based opinion, he will leave for the right club. Can only assume that means real pathway to first team. Should we lose Bertrand we could have him actively competing with McQueen and/or Targett. Though he does seem more like a Baines replacement at Everton and they seem to be trying to reel in young English talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verbal Kint Posted 18 April, 2017 Share Posted 18 April, 2017 How do you correctly use a striker who can't finish? Do you mean that he's a good athlete? Surrender possession, sit deep with men behind the ball and play on the counter. As we did when we thumped Arsneal 4-0 and Long was man of the match, or away at Spurs when we won playing very good counter attacking football, and once again Long was fantastic. But Puel is not interested in that type of football so there isn't much point in having him here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintwbu Posted 18 April, 2017 Share Posted 18 April, 2017 Players all get on well with Austin and he's great attitude in training He seems like a popular bloke among the squad from what i've seen on social media and seems to take a lot of the youngsters under his wing - hope LeG is chatting ****, i've always been a big fan of Austin. Although I have always found it a bit odd that he doesn't particularly talk about Saints much on social media when he's out injured, not often showing his support. Not that it matters, but most players do (probably told by their advisors), him not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint-crinny Posted 19 April, 2017 Share Posted 19 April, 2017 Think the chat about a £13m release clause means we can pretty much dismiss that article - we don't do release clauses but if we did, why would we do one at that price, just a few million more than we signed him for, when he's since established him as a proven Prem player and signed a new deal last summer. Also, if I was Arsenal fan and Tadic was the man who replaces Ozil, I'd be more than a little underwhelmed.

But Puel is not interested in that type of football so there isn't much point in having him here Long's chance conversion just isn't good enough to warrant playing like that on a regular basis. Surrendering possession and then relying on a player who has averaged only a goal every five games throughout his entire premier league career would be a recipe for relegation.

SuperSAINT Posted 19 April, 2017 Share Posted 19 April, 2017 SAINTS EYE SIGURDSSON AND JANSSON Sky sources understand Southampton are targeting the signings of Swansea midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson and Leeds defender Pontus Jansson this summer. Both are under contract to their respective clubs until June 2020, but the Saints believe they can lure them to St Mary’s if the pair are faced with the prospect of Championship football next season. Sigurdsson, 27, is fighting a relegation battle with the Swans, while Sweden international Jansson expects to secure a play-off place with Leeds. Southampton have been tracking Sigurdsson, whose family is settled in Swansea, for two years and made an attempt to sign him in 2016. The South Coast club are also resigned to losing centre-back Virgil van Dijk when he recovers from an ankle injury and see Jansson as a replacement. ^ From SSN Transfer Centre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
