Saints January transfer window thread

Why Liverpool? Don't believe it...he's playing for the team he loves in the PL and has got 2 international caps. Mauricio remarked recently about Adam's passion for Saints.

 

He's an Everton fan so I doubt he'd be quite that desperate to go to Liverpool, even without the unerring loyalty he's shown to us so far.

 

As good as Adam has been this year, £20m... Hmmmmmm.....

 

Lallana is a known quantity...the trouble is that, even with 20 mill, you couldn't guarantee to get another player who would fit.

 

There is no chance of Lallana going to Liverpool.

 

After yet another cock up by Borec, I think it's time for a new keeper....he can't keep giving away goals like this

 

yes that borec is crap, not a patch on boruc

 

Bit of an overreaction, that. After giving away that goal, he has given away a total of...one goal? Two if you count the wind-blown one, but he's a pretty stellar keeper save for the odd moment of madness.

 

! We need to send Gazza on loan and get an experienced back up. Friedel/Harper/Gomez will do.

 

People tripping.

 

Agree about back up but Boruc won't make many mistakes.

 

His record in the last two games isn't great.

 

The wind assisted goal was bad luck and another goal was Wanyama's fault for not clearing. This goal was one he has to take full blame for and he will, then come back stronger. We all know he's crazy and so far it's worked well for us. He will be slapping himself round the head right now. He will pull off a couple of worldies in the next few games and everyone will move on. We do need another keeper, but not because of Boruc.

 

I wondered how long this would take.

 

Agree with Fran. All top keepers get pilloried when they make mistakes. Boruc will save us more points than he loses.

 

What did he do wrong against Hull?

 

.. and another disrespectful spelling error by DL.

 

... and where was KD today?

 

I wondered that. Maybe he had same bug as Dejan?

 

The most disappointing part about Boruc's blunder today is that he hasn't learnt his lesson yet. Surely he must have remembered that he'd gifted the opposition a 1-0 lead in the very last away game. He shouldn't have been taking any risks at all with that in mind.

We've still only let in 7 goals in 12 games which is very good. We need to stick with him. There's no point risking upsetting the whole side. But it's frustrating that 5 out of the 7 goals we've conceded this season could very easily have been prevented. In 3 games we've gifted the opposition the lead (Giacherrini header vs Sunderland, Begovic vs Stoke, today) and only got 2 points from those games.
