Jay Rod

If we signed both it would mean Barney was off (to prison? ), and Connolly would be benched.

Would be unreal though if we did. I don't believe it for a second though. It will be one or the other.

 

[James G]

If we did get both, I'd expect Jay to be a bit part player this year and then replace Connolly next year.

We don't need to spend £10million on two strikers surely!?

 

[SFCJordi]

I would **** myself if I came up against JayRod and Maynard.

Attacking line up


De Ridder ---- Cork ---- Schneiderlin ---- Lallana

Jay Rod / Lambert ---- Maynard

Thanks for posting that, now I have to get new pants

Still think it's Connelly's year and if he's doing well the incoming striker has to join the queue.

 

[North Hants Saint]

I'd feel very sorry for Lambert, Connolly and Barnard if we signed both. All 3 are great.

 

[Gordon Gekko]

Barnard can go for all I care, by far the weakest of the three. If we get in these two, cheerio Lee!!!

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

Just been given a new contract, but may not play much if we get another striker.

 

[Plastique Bertrand]

Surely it would have been more correct of him (or her) to tweet "either" rather than "both".

^^^agreed

 

[Gordon Gekko]

If we have them both, it would probably be more like this as an attacking line up


Jay Rod/Maynard-------Cork-----Hammond/Schneider-------Lallana


-----------------Jay Rod/Maynard----Lambert

Connolly and De Ridder on the bench, Barnard taking 12 inches in the shower.

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

12 Inches...I've been cheated.

Agreed and I hope so, but he's 33/34 now? He's not for the 5 year plan for sure. The other two are.

Exactly, Barnard and Connolly will not be in our PL plans unfortunately, so it would make sense to buy Rodriguez and Maynard, although I don't expect us too...

 

[st.steve]

doubt very much it would be both,

would prefer to sign one and then re-evaluate where we are come January

Think if we signed both it would rock the boat/bus a bit

 

[mightysouthampton]

But would it make sense to buy to players for £10million? I don't think we need both.

Sign them both now and not need to sign a striker if we get to the Prem within the next couple of years

or

Sign one, have more of a struggle getting to the Prem, and have to shell out a fair lot more if and when we do.

Apparently he started his career as a centre-mid.
