Le Fondre


Saints Mad Si

Recommended Posts

Probably just speculative odds. Reading are as good as down so he probably wont stay there, (either because he doesn't want to drop back to the champ or because Reading need the money,) we apparently have money to spend, and Southampton isn't too far away so he wouldn't have to relocate. Hey presto - we're favourites to sign him.

I would have loved to have got him from Rotherham when Reading did and at £350k he was a bargain for what he has delivered. I'm sure if we got him instead of giving Connolly another year we'd have won the league. He has been a decent sub for Reading this year but that's about the limit of his talents if you ask me. An impact player for a bottom half team. We should be aiming higher if we have serious European ambitions next year. He is a good finisher and will get goals but does little else. No presence, no pace, very little trickery. He would be best suited staying where he is and trying to bring Reading back up next year.

To echo prior comments, would rather have Sharp. Remember watching him at Hereford and wondering what all the fuss was about.

 

Le Fondre has a wonderful habit of being in the right place at the right time though. It's a shame he forgot he was a professional footballer at the worst possible time on saturday. ;)

Don't know if this has been posted anywhere but just checking through odds checker and came up with this, seems a bit strange after a poor performance against us Saturday and with the comments he made afterwards.

Do they have no clue about what Cortese is trying to achieve down here?!

in fact if Kebé and Roberts weren't serial sicknotes this season I'm not sure that ALF would be a starter. Kebe is a handy player. Him I wouldn't mind us signing.

 

I would, Kebe is a championship player.
