I remember watching Caulker against Saints when he played for Spurs a couple of seasons ago when he was probably only about 20, He had a really good game, kept Lambert very quiet, and always looked a real threat when he went up for corners. Think him and Fonte or a similar player would be a very good partnership, and suspect he will be an England regular in the next couple of years.
Sign him up quick.
 
Well hopefully koeman and koe can persuade them that it's better for them here to really inspire the team n push us further than a dismal cup exits and a 7th spot finish? :)
 
Heard from a good friend that they expect Tadic, and possibly Pelle to sign tomorrow, from the same guy who told me about Koeman/Shaw a few weeks abck.
 
Again -a fair point. But Caulker has an excellent season at Swansea playing a similar system to the one we play.

I think the point you make may well be relevant to the GK position though. It's been clear during the world cup that keepers like Neuer and Lloris are god sends to teams that play a high line and are vital to the team system. That is certainly not Marshall/Foster's strength so it may be more prudent to look for a keeper that better suits the system in that sense (although I really rate Marshall as a box keeper/shot stopper).

Problem with this, and with saying that Caulker would suit our system and the way we play - we don't know now what our system is, or how we'll play. New manager, new ideas. Now I hope that RK continues the playing philosophies of MP, but I don't think we know that he will just yet.
 
Anyone know if Tadic turned up for pre season training at Twente? There are pictures of Pelle at Feyenoord. You'd think if he was on verge of leaving he wouldn't be at pre season training. I'm clutching to this straw as I don't think Pelle will suit the league.

Wanyama was on international tour with Celtic until the day we signed him - but I'm happy to clutch onto that straw too.
 
sell Lovren if he is gonna rock the boat. Then Ron can make a happy squad from the start

Pelle bid was rejected according to a newspaper.
