Chez Posted 18 January, 2012 Share Posted 18 January, 2012 Not really. Norwich are much more decisive in the transfer market.I wonder why didn't they sort this deal out two weeks ago? Good signing by the way. Feel for the Leeds fans, Bates is slowly and surely killing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted 18 January, 2012 Share Posted 18 January, 2012 I've mentioned him numerous times before, but Jordan Mutch is a very good player and exactly the sort of player we should be signing. He's having a great game tonight and no surprise that his return has coincided with some good results. Shame WBA have put in an offer for Ridgwell otherwise the blues board would be desperate by now and a decent offer might be welcomed. Just for good measure I'll mention Jack Butland and Curtis Davies again too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reported that the Danish newspaper Bladet tips. Originally, the five-time International next week at the Philips Stadium and travel signatures are put. From the new season, the 21-year-old defender, currently recovering from a serious knee injury in the current year and no longer can act, then the red and white pick. Southampton is willing to Zanka, as the nickname of Mathias Jattah Njie-Jørgensen is, immediately to get. FC Copenhagen it is also willing to cooperate, because the Danish champion still can collect a transfer fee. Southampton want to get promoted to the Premier League.

St.Bart -No.1 Posted 20 January, 2012 Share Posted 20 January, 2012 Another mention of Mathias : http://psvrss.nl/2012/01/20/%E2%80%98psv-verliest-strijd-om-%E2%80%98zanka%E2%80%99-van-southampton%E2%80%99/ PSV had high hopes for the transfer of Mathias 'Zanka' Jorgensen later this month to complete. The Danish defender of FC Copenhagen now appears for an adventure in England to choose where Southampton lurking. The Danish Tips Bladet, the transfer to the English Jørgensen divisionist as good as the first round. Reason for transfer remarkable is the fact that Southampton would be willing to pay a transfer fee for the defender. PSV Eindhoven wanted to get free transfers Jørgensen. Should the transfer of Jørgensen actually fall into the water for PSV, which is a huge drain on Eindhoven. Dane because the club had wanted to visit and would, in various media has reached a verbal agreement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

for_heaven's_Saint Posted 21 January, 2012 Share Posted 21 January, 2012 What Adkins actually said on Football League Weekend was something along the lines of 'as we've already said, we're the top scorers in the division, so some people would say we don't need another striker.'

I don't think that suggests a categorical 'we don't need a striker', in fact it makes me think even more that we're still looking.[/quote'] I read it pretty much as he said it - we don't need another striker. As we don't. We are comfortably outscoring our rivals despite all of Lambert, Connolly, Guly and Barnard being injured or suspended at some stage. We have added another international striker, and loan player who I understand plays wing or as a 2nd striker. BUT - if he can add someone like Hooper, and can afford it he will and should. This team isn't built like Leicester, I know some would like the buying loads of names who are not as good as their reputuation!

I reckon we will see late (i.e. last day) activity on the striker front. Reckon we'll see Puncheon as makeweight in any deal. We've clearly got the money and the appetite to spend it: though I don't think we are genuinely desparate too. Going to be fun watching the last day rumours.
