OK I've got the boards thinking sussed now. We get thumped by Spuds on Sunday, then sack Pellegrino. Rafa walks out off Newcastle due to the takeover falling through. 2 Days later becomes Saints new manager and gets in the top 3 targets that have been delaying signing for the club.
Must have taken hours to get done, yet he had it taken out by the next match. I suspect his team mates had let him know their opinion.....or it hurt.
If he could stay fit I'd take Andy Carroll all day. He might have a chance of getting on the end of Cedric/Bertrands (mostly) awful crosses. The perfect target man and an absolute **** to boot.
Agreed, when fit he's such a handful but sadly be never is. Would be too mum money and wages for someone who's constantly injured I imagine.
If Andy Carroll could stay fit he wouldn't be at West Ham, he'd already be at one of the top clubs. Anymore news about that Carrillo guy from Monaco? Saw someone mention on Sainstweb that their manager has come out saying they won't be selling him as Falcao is injured?
He scored an injury time equaliser vs. Nice last night so not sure where that's come from? Balotelli also scored two..
Think we let that go when we were strapped for cash. There may be a small amount due under the rules about academy players.....that came up before.
This thread is so depressingly quiet, the club are not even putting up the pretence of being interested in anybody....
Don't worry guys, we are having a re-think http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/15845433.Saints_forced_into_January_rethink/
Last week MP2 said we were hoping to make 2 signings this week. One thing that we are good at is keeping things on the DL. We're half way through this week now and we're still none the wiser to who these two players are.
