Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours thread

I'm able to say we're definitely going forward, and we've only just started our business

You've almost finished all your business and still can't say you've improved the team

 

For who? We've only spent £30m about 3 times? Only one that was £30m too much was Carrol!

 

Ignore him, all his moving and decorating has turned him into a miserable ****er

 

Dunno... having seen off shoot through Robles twice in our last game and seeing their creaking old cos I'd say they've added in areas they needed to.

Shame when lucky goes they will be like when only Cahill could score for them.

 

It can't be £30m too much if we got £15m for him

Am still making excuses for that but

 

I think mito has got to him

 

MITO is getting to a few people recently, dribbles even started a thread about the issue (but MITO got angry and edited it)

 

Maybe I should have said "aiming to be the new..."

£70m for Van Dickface who has had five good months in England, very good in a **** league though (I know we've not signed him)

£34m for a Chelsea reject that can only do it in a **** league

Miserable today because it feels like I'm in Weymouth!

 

With the players we're buying or being linked to, I wish we hadn't got the money!

 

Doesn't feel like it. Get on with it I say (not far off CL KO for us) I hope our targets aren't waiting to see if we qualify, should be willing to help the club qualify.

 

we have bought 1 player, plus Solanke for the U23 team , and the only links which keep cropping up are VVD & Keita and to some extent Robertson.
I have 2 worries a) we haven't got the scouts
b) we haven't got the money

oh make that 3 worries c) we have a sparse squad & yet more realistic talk about outgoings than incomings.

 

a) I'd hope our scouts have already done their job for this summer. And now they're at the Confed Cup working for next summer.
b) Everyone in the Prem has 'the money' even the relegated teams got a **** load of money
c) Yep here in lies the problem I see. Yet we can't seem to shift some of them.

 

They'll be back in Southampton after the weekend

 

I think we'll be fine. I don't think we'll be shelling out £70m for anyone though

 

What makes you think that?
If you are definitely going forward will you do better than scraping 4th this season?

 

There were add ons on top of that £15m too, plus a £2m loan fee from WHU for the previous season.

Still got ****ed over though

 

for so long fans have complained we can't compete with Chelsea and Man citeh. the moment we open our wallet people want to whine.

can't win. if the club can afford it without going into administration so be it. can't we be happy

 

seriously doubt we have the money unless we are planning onleaving gaping holes in the squad again.

 

Yup. I think we're a couple of windows away from spending that kinda money on one player; we're 5 players short still for next season imo

 

These are just pie-in-the-sky figures being thrown about in the sports media, lets wait and see what materialises.
