http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/11380391.Fonte_s_thumbs_up/?ref=mrs Article from Echo discussing Fonte's positivity...finishing with some of his tweets. Warranted a thread because as the Echo says makes a change from players only posting to voice their discontent. Got to give him a new contract and the armband.
Without wanting to sounds like a pessimistic bastard... I wonder if clubs like Liverpool were in for him rather than Cardiff if he would stay or just leave like everyone else?
Its so frustrating that we haven't got him signed up to a 2/3 year deal. Its sad that we will still be talking about it going into a new season. The board making their own problems on this one.
His sale helped when they were in administration and he has always got a warm reception when we've visited. Perhaps not a legend, but well regarded
It's actually being reported in one article. If true, it can only be being done to destabilise the Saints squad further. Personally, I think Jose is too mature to swallow any of that garbage. And, if indeed, it turned out to be true, it would just show the lengths that other clubs will go to try eliminate a potential rival. http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2014...fonte-and-lopes-linked-as-one-deal-edges-clo/
Fair enough then but he did drop down a division. Either he was sold the 'dream' or he was offered more money.
I want another contract for Fonte...leaving him with just a year will leave him open to poaching. Be annoyed if Saints are happy to lose him....like we are stuffed full of CBs.
I said this earlier. The ones we are calling traitors were courted by clubs above us. The ones we are giving credit for being loyal to or saying they love it here have been courted by.....................not the clubs above us
That's true, but I think Fonte's positivity has eased the fears that the players are deeply unhappy and can't wait to get out of the club He is holding his leg at the Brighton match, hopefully just cramp
They chanted "José for captain!" last night. He led the team out the tunnel for the match and the warm-up, led and communicated throughout the jogging as a team in the warm-up and was vocal throughout. And had a good game. And ripped his shorts. Also, his chant now appears to be one of the most loudly sung. Sign that man up to a new deal.
