IOWSaintDaz Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Been a long drawn out saga for Gaston Ramirez, just hope its worth it.......can't wait to see him play Vs Arsenal SKY coverage for this transfer is a joke £12mil spent by us and hardly a eyelid batted......SHOCKING but hopefully Gaston will show em Vs Arsenal just what a great player he is. Still time also to get 1 more in before the deadline at 11pm COYR!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bugenhagen Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Now I can finally relax and enjoy the final hours untill the window shuts. Great signing - wasted a lot of time at work over the last few weeks following this tread. About time I conributed to it... And yes, I woted "no" (was in a dark place at the time). Now bring on the pie! Saint Gaston! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekelund24 Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Ah good, Sky are back on the Fulham - Liverpool transfers, and Man City.

davefizzy14 Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 So glad its all done now. What a piece of transfer business, this is top stuff from NA and NC. Welcome onboard Gaston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dig Dig Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Still think we should have focused on Scott Dann instead. Although Cortese would probably **** up the negotiations. Don't be silly, we can't expect to compete with top clubs for players like Dann. NPC team of the year is our level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washsaint Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Saint Richmond, Alpine....where are you? Not celebrating this great signing? Fair play to the club for keeping the details under wraps for so long and what a statement of intent! Nige has to deliver in the Prem now with this level of backing.

Alpine will pop on later saying that he was conveniently at a prior engagement. His appearance will coincide with the transfer window closing, and us not signing a 2nd CB.

Graffito Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 Mark Lawrenson, BBC Sport speaking on BBC Radio 5 live: "Liverpool cannot sign just Clint Dempsey, who is not an out-and-out striker. They need someone else as well, otherwise their problems will be the same as last year - not enough goals. I can just see them being in the same predicament as last season."

deadpanmatt Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 It's so irritating. We've just made one of the most amazing transfers in years. A promoted club signing one of the most sought after players in world football. But they're more interested in talking about Richard Wright joining Man City, weird... never mind, we know what we have here - a huge statement, a huge signing and someone that will create a domino effect on this club and city. Sit back and enjoy it. So what? Who cares? How does us not getting column inches affect our season in any way? I'd rather stay out of the press and survive this season than be caught up in a media circus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 31 August, 2012 Share Posted 31 August, 2012 talian football expert James Horncastle on Southampton signing Gaston Ramirez: "Negotiations have been complicated on account of the number of parties said to be claiming a stake in the player and the reported entitlement of former club Peñarol to a percentage of the transfer fee. "Everything has now been resolved. It's a considerable coup for Southampton considering Liverpool and Manchester City were said to be interested at one stage, as were Juventus and Inter Milan. The 21-year-old Uruguay international is a winger capable of playing behind the strikers. He lacks consistency, sure, but there's absolutely no doubting his potential. On some days his dribbling and other creative talents are worth the ticket price alone." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
