    Think thats slightly harsh. Was very very good for Zenit when they reached the Europa League final and had every big club in Europe looking at him then, went completely off the boil when he moved to Germany though, and had a few good games for Fulham.

    Agree that people are over rating him alot, but IF he can keep his form it would be a good signing

    Wonder how much Guthrie is on seeing as Pogrebnyak is on 65k.

    He was alright for Zenit but a lot of that was based off a very good supply line, mainly Arshavin.

    Pogrebnyak isn´t on 65k a week. He´s on 35k. Guthrie won´t be any higher than 25k a week I reckon.

    Why are people getting worried about Reading anyway? It's not as if they're throwing around huge amounts of money. So far they've spent zilch in transfer fees.

    Where did you hear 35k?, all i've heard is 65k. That's why he joined Reading in the first place. I doubt if it was 35k he would be there as Fulham could easily match it.

    Discounting the mail and the star <laugh>

    Even his agent said he was moving to Reading for the money, so i doubt very much Fulham couldn't afford 35k.
    His agent said Reading wage offer was so big he couldn't turn it down.

    Ah it's okay, the Mail and the Star say so, so it must be right.

    We had this discussion a while ago and I posted far more reliable sources saying it's over 30k, obviously, otherwise Fulham would have paid it. It was confirmed today the reason he chose Reading was a significantly higher wage... honest, at least.

    There are many articles that say 65k and many that state it´s 30k a week. I find it hard to believe that Reading would offer such high wages so I´m sceptical....and just because his agent says money was the reason it doesn´t mean it´s 65k.

    Makes sense though. Fulham would surely have paid £30k, and if he wanted more than that he could easily move abroad.

    Just heard that we are interested in Kasper Schmeichel. Also looks like we may be getting Steve Davis as rumour is that it is a formality now.

    Don't know how good this is but same source said we were trying to get Butland.

    They must need a special gate at Southampton Airport just for footballers flying in for talks!

    Pogrebnyak is a good player. Proven that he can score at Premier League level.

    It is less of a gamble than us signing Rodriguez.

    Maybe correct 7&11, but I'd still rather sign 22 year old jayrod for £6m or so than the Russina chap who even if a success will be gone in a year or two.
