    No chance! It would take £20million to get him.

    minimum.

    therefore, Pellé. And gladly from what i've seen he's a better footballer, if not as proven in goal scoring.

    You never really know how they are gonig to adapt in the Premier League but hey, he knows where the back of the net is and that's a good base to work from!!

    scores with both feet from range, powerful aerially, backheels aplenty.

    obviously nowhere near as fast as lukaku can be but he looks a lot more mobile than lambert.

    i may be alone in being glad at the prospect of moving away slightly from the way we played football last season.

    I liked the way we played last year, but its effectiveness decreases once the shock and awe effect wears off. You need a lot of players to maintain it (which we didn't have)...was there the danger of burn out? Koeman favours possession and playing out from the back, so may be less strain on the players. In the preseason testing video, Cork says he was told at the end of the season (presumably by MP) to take no more than 2 weeks off during the summer...he didn't say so, but suspect once MP had gone he took a longer rest.

    Thought this was worth bringing over. it's missing quotes he was responding to though.

    I really hope he's right, even if it does mean ridicule for me.

    I'm sure a 20 goal a season striker would numb the pain of being wrong on the internet.

    I really can't. I'll personally attack everyone on here and get banned, then keep reappearing under new accounts and troll you all.

    Hypothetically.

    Because it's not going to happen.

    We'd never ban you Joe, we'd just confine you to the Pompey board. :grin:

    Monk on SaintsWeb saying Saints intend to get this deal done by Monday. Tadić first, though.

    Bid accepted, now agreeing terms with the player and booking him in for a medical, then...

    Quite excited by Tadic. Could be an excellent player for us.

    Monk didn't say that part, that comes from Guan - sorry, could've been clearer on that one.

    Because of your avatar I see you as a seriously pissed off woman...means I would be somewhat alarmed if you said anything too positive. You are the ying to our yang.

    She and I are soulmates. When I am unhappy, she is unhappy.
