dubai_phil Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 some guy on twitter (see the Ramirez thread) The Tello deal is possible. Barca want him to sign a long term contract, otherwise he may be free to leave. IF he signs that then the Twitter stories were that they would let him out on a season long loan. All highly improbable but then so was the thought of seeing Citeh with 10 men behind the ball in the last 10 mins yesterday and watching them hoof it anywhere clear as the Red Arrows rained down on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djk2g09 Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 Major breakthrough in the Ramirez deal according to Nixon on Tweeter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ART Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 We're not going to sign another keeper. HTH In that case we're going to be in deep trouble. Perhaps a new CB will make Kelvin more stable but in the Premier League we can't afford a keeper who is unable to catch and smother the ball. That we haven't signed a quality keeper is a huge disappointment. When Saints have been at their best we've had the best goalkeeper around. This is no longer the case.

Saint Garrett Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 Davis will be fine this season. I don't know what you're worrying about, he wasn't that bad yesterday. Admitably he had a few shaky moments but it was a big moment. He's more than capable to do a job, and I really dont want us to go and sign Butland for £18m ridiculous money.

Leicestersaint Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 I remain to be convcined about Fox or about Davis - we really do need to keep the goals conceded down. I am also not convinced about Puncheon at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollysaints1 Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 He can play on the right or left as well, watched him play for Saint-ettiene on ESPN last season and he was pretty good, i think he went off with injury though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintsrob Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 I think if we were going to bring in another keeper then Artur Boruc would be a great signing, was excellent at Celtic and very solid at Fiorentina the last two seasons as well.

Brussels Saint Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 LB is the tricky one. I guess all depends on how close Shaw is to being first choice. If he is at all close, is it worth spending the 3-4m needed for someone better than Fox. As we pursued Buttner I guess initially we felt he was not ready, but potentially maybe we have reassessed how quickly Shaw will be ready and prefer to focus the cash elsewhere. Ramirez, Phillips, Butland and a class CB would do it for me, but I guess you would not get much change from 30m for that lot. I think we as fans are asking too much.
