skywalk750 Posted 21 August, 2016 Share Posted 21 August, 2016 Transfer rumours are rife here down under but I have caught wind of a low key ITK.. Newspapers report K.Liebherr was seen depositing gold bullions in a mint after the sale of Mane and Pelle. Not sure how much stock one can take in this, gold is a bit pricey these days.

Chez Posted 21 August, 2016 Share Posted 21 August, 2016 (edited) Gueye fair enough for the price. But Bolasie for £27-32m!! If we'd spent £27m on Bolasie I'd of been absolutely thrilled with that signing. He's one of the few players outside the big teams and the champions that I look at and think he should be. I am a huge fan of his and I would have instantly forgotten Mane. Shame. As for the OX, with him in the squad we could revert to a standard 442 never mind this diamond ****.

GGalpin Posted 21 August, 2016 Share Posted 21 August, 2016 Had a thought on the player who was hinted at by Guan, AR-10 et al. If he had a Pelle-like period where he was okay before becoming good in a foreign league, he must be around 25-28. Forward, left-sided, has been linked to another Premier League too, would have broken our transfer record. May not be him, but I do wonder if it was someone like Lucas Perez at Deportivo. Never heard of him before this season, but noticed his name after he ended up scoring 17 goals in 36 games. Played a lot as a forward for Deportivo last season, but has played as an attacking midfielder or out-wide from what I have read. Seen that he has been linked to Leicester and West Ham (but every striker has been...). As I said it may not be him, but it's the sort of signing that Saints would make. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/may/10/leicester-city-transfer-record-signing-lucas-perez-deportivo-la-coruna http://sportwitness.co.uk/west-ham-submit-formal-proposal-trying-snatch-barca-target-club-sleep/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Fan CaM Posted 21 August, 2016 Share Posted 21 August, 2016 Nicely set up for the 'no win' scenario though. If we don't sign three you can complain about that, if we do, it's only because Les is panicking. No thought about whether it might take more than a week to get a new player through the door and these deals might have been in the pipeline for a while? Oh dear someone's feelings have been hurt. Read carefully before commenting and it might not affect you so much you poor dear. IMO we'll not be signing 3 players before deadline day and I LOL at those who think we will - particularly if it's thought that serious money will be splashed. There's no complaint in my statement - it's just an opinion... you know, one of those things that you see once in a while on a fans football forum. I doubt Les is panicking, but that's how it might be seen by selling clubs at this stage of the window and transfer fees will inflate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Scott Posted 22 August, 2016 Share Posted 22 August, 2016 @SkySports - BAGGIES WANT J-ROD Sky sources are telling us West Brom are interested in taking Southampton's Jay Rodriguez on loan. We understand there have been positive talks between the clubs, and it's thought Southampton are willing to let him go on loan to get more game time. Rodriguez has three years left on his contract at St Mary's and remains part of manager Claude Puel's long term plans. Berahino in on a perm and j-rod on loan, I wouldn't mind that.

captainchris Posted 22 August, 2016 Share Posted 22 August, 2016 Use Rodriguez in for the Europa league, I still feel that given a bit of time and some confidence he could recapture his form. The poor lad must be physiologically poor place after what he's gone through. But we need to make a few standout signings... the guys I go to games with are so underwhelmed with where we are right now. We ain't pushing on that's for sure. Yet.... Well summed up. The silence is deafening, the complacency is dreadfully naive. Actually this has all the hallmarks of a company for sale, driving up profit whilst sweating the assets..... Otherwise why would we be 'free wheeling' It's not making sense considering the heights we reached last season and the potential to grow further....

robgriz Posted 22 August, 2016 Share Posted 22 August, 2016 If Fonte does go to Utd, I personally wouldn't object to Jones coming in the other direction.
