    Picked up my Dutch colleague at the airport today and the first thing he said was that Dutch media saying Pelle and the midfield fella very likely from Feyenoord to saints.

    I am going to be really, really disappointed if we sign Pelle for anything more than peanuts. Who's the midfield fella? Clasie? Or that ****e-looking #10 we had the rumour about the other day?

    That's him. It's probably only Dutch media doing what ours are doing anyway.

    Is there a reason people are anti-Pelle? Looking at the stats he's been extremely successful under Koeman the last 2 seasons, with a more impressive record than Bony that everyone seems so keen to sign. If Koeman wants to play a similar style to how he played at Feyenoord, then getting in a striker who has obviously fitted that system well and Koeman understands would make sense.

    Pelle would be ok depending on the price. Immers I don't want.

    There's a big difference between the likes of Suarez and Bony compared to Pelle and say, Afonso Alves. Pelle's game seems to work because of terrible defending rather than his own skill, much like van Wolfswinkel in Portugal. Pelle MIGHT be okay, but judging by scoring record alone is really stupid, and fees bandied about like 12m are terrifying.

    If we can get Pelle for about £5,000,000 then I think that's good business. Any more would be pretty underwhelming for me.

    Pelle is not a good footballer. He's been a target man for Feyenoord and it's worked but he would need to be a lot better at football to succeed in the PL. He was crap in Serie A.

    Fair enough, I've never seen him play, so only really got stats to go by.
