Best wishes to Richard Chaplow, played his part in the two promotions & a good honest professional. Hope he goes to a decent club (not sure if Millwall fit that description)
Who knows. Pochettino used all the other three. So, we have: Lovren, Yoshida, Fonte, Hooiveld. Possibly needing one more. The Sorensen lad from Bologna/Juve?
Thats very good to hear! Makes sense if we were paying installments and they basically pay us around the same as what we had paid them so far. Still all very odd though. Glad it is sorted.
Yeah I'd be happier with one more now, Forren was sold to us as a first-teamer, so even though he hasn't played we've effectively lost one. What was that story a week or so ago about Forren turning down the chance to go on loan to Molde? That's quite a change of heart!
Might have to fight Man United for him :\ http://www.football-italia.net/36311/man-utd-bid-astori-report Not the best sauce though. Much prefer Sweet Chili.
I believe Saints were shocked at how slow he was. I can presume that the videos they watched of him before buying him were stuck on fast forward?
How strange; my theory (completely without evidence) is that he was homesick and didn't settle in at all. In all the videos he never seemed to be too chatty to the players and seemed quite reserved, I doubt it's down to a lack of ability as he is an international defender.
Remember when everyone said Forren was really good and would comfortably be in our starting XI?.........yeh, that.......
