Saint Garrett Posted 31 August, 2022 Author Share Posted 31 August, 2022 Don’t doubt they will try keep him, but surely we can offer him way more money. They need money and don’t have CL this season… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but gakpo’s comments on not being able to answer whether it was his last game and it being a moment of truth can easily be read as make it worth my while to stay.

It's gutting to have seemingly got so close and then to lose out partly because a big statement signing like this would seem to herald a new kind of era for us. It's still a good window if we miss out but it coukd have been an amazing one. Not over yet but it does feel less likely now.

I don’t know, SR have carried on the Saints way (one of the better ones) of doing things in more of a quiet way and I can’t see them finding PSV’s auction tactics to raise immediate funds very edifying. I wouldn’t be surprised if it suits them as a smokscreen behind which to be working on another advanced big winger/striker/10 deal in the background or to have personal terms agreed with a few players in that space. The new DoF operates differently and SR will know that not recruiting that area is a huge risk as the chance creation/finishing is still not fully PL standard.

I don't think we will be going down with the players we have and I still think we'll get someone alright on loan by the end of tomorrow if we lose out on Gakpo. The season will be a little bit meh imo even if meh is an upgrade on where we were previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offence to you but imo that's bollocks. We aren't using it as a smokescreen we have clearly really badly wanted this player. It's not some sort of tactic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do we have so many fans who think we are sort of club who lurks in the transfer shadows, implementing the dark arts to keep things quiet? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
