Do you know what I want for Christmas? A player who says,'Once I heard Saints were in for me there was no other choice.'
Billy Sharp would be my first choice without a doubt. He's has all the attributes for a top quality forward. The thought of a frontline of Lambert and Sharp is mouthwatering - they'd devastate defences in this league no question. I've always rated Marvin Sordell aswell - with the right players around him, I think he could be a quality striker.
I think we could get that response if we were to sign Jutkiwietz as I read somewhere that he is a Saints fan.
I haven't heard that he's actually been transfer-listed (although I have no reason to doubt you), but certainly it looks like Leicester will be happy to off-load him next month. Presumably he's just not a player who Pearson is interested in (and I did note that he was dropped to the bench for their last game).
I'd like a player who says "I was going to sign for Barcelona until I met Nicola Cortese and Nigel Adkkins, who showed me the ambitition of this club and I decided that I wanted to be a part of the vision."
