Transfer Rumours Saint Cody!

If he rips it up for Saints he guaranteed to get a big move down the line.

 

Of course. It would be a stepping stone move for him - we all know that. Not that I would care if he signed for us.

 

IT might have been me...

 

We just have to sell the 'we're the club of Mane, Van Dijk, Tadic, Wanyama, Hojbjerg, Shaw, Lallana, Lovren' angle.

Give us two good years and we'll let you go. Leeds will change hands in the next two years and you'll have to tussle for the exit.

Also, less competition for wide positions here compared to Harrison and Sinisterra.

 

Fake account

 

I am going with what Adam Blackmore said.


Ultimately it's down to PSV if they want to sell or not

 

Fake account

 

Fake account

 

Yep just realised.

 

Yep. And it becomes something of a self-fulfilling prophesy when in two years, you're telling the next crop of kids that we're the club of Bella-Kotchap, Livramento, Lavia, Gakpo, Mane and Van Dijk. And then two years after that maybe you don't need to bother selling that angle as hard because you're playing in Europe.

 

I haven't seen any evidence to back this up.

 

Well that was fun whilst it lasted.

 

I still believe Adam Blackmore.

 

Why is it over? We've agreed terms with Gakpo, they haven't.

 

Still in the Philips Stadium. PSV want to make the decision tonight. Or Gakpo gone, or Sangaré, or neither.

 

In fact, I bet Romano has just gone on to Skybet.

 

Just checked my Betfair app and betting on Gakpo has been suspended.

The box is greyed out but you can still see Leeds 4/9 and Southampton 13/8.

Interestingly Leeds odds are blue as are Man Utd, Arsenal etc but Saints is greyed out.

Any betting experts know what that's about?

 

Was just thinking this. Romano could make a mint on betting sites, and swing things either way for himself with comments like that, Musk style.

 

Romano is a good aggregator but I remain thoroughly unconvinced he has a huge network of contacts. It's totally unrealistic for a 20-something Italian journalist to emerge from nowhere and be well-connected with so many clubs across the world. There is a reason journalists work patches and it's because it takes time to cultivate relationships and source info.

I'm sure now he has some good contacts as a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy - his audience is eye-watering now - but let us not forget that he said Joao Pedro to Newcastle was done a week ago...
