Summer 2014 Transfer rumour thread - Part VIII

Hasn't there? De Vrij was our first choice, Dijk is our second choice.

 

When he said "over the weekend" I was hoping that he meant last one, not an apparently random one in the future

 

What's the latest that guan 2.0 has said?

 

Is that known? That would be great, but I have a fear the link is tenuous one based on his and Ronald's nationality. Hope not.

 

I wouldn't worry, it's all speculation. In truth he knows little more than most other posters.

 

If we're going 4-3-3 then I reckon he could be a decent-ish box-to-box.

 

I guess this refers to the rumour that Celtic will sell their players if they get knocked out?

 

Yep.

 

Will sell anyways, but want a shot at that CL money.

 

Don't forget Vlaar

 

Anything else on Clasie? With Reed, JWP, Wanyama, Taider, Davis, Cork and Schneiderlin, if Clasie were to come in I'd expect one or both of Morgan and Cork to go.

 

SSN say Rodwell is off to Sunderland. Were we really interested?

 

I think we'll get a centre back so hopefully won't have regressed too much at the back. I'm more concerned where our goals are coming from? Pelle looks like the main (almost the only) goal threat we have and I'm not convinced by him. He's definitely not going to bang in 30 odd again. Even if we get Ings (which seems far from certain) it's all a bit risky for me.

 

Doubt it,they are signing him for over 10m.

 

We definitely need a third strong attacking threat.

Lallana, Jay & Lambert all got around 10-15 each. Tadic & Pelle could potentially get into double figures but considering the rest of the team barely got anything between them then we need a third goal threat who has the ability/potential to get into double figures

 

feeling so angry and fed up with Saints at the moment and don't trust a word the board says. Hope to god we are waiting on Celtic's match to get Forster and Van Dijk as we desperately need some good news to convince the majority of the fans that we are not just being lied to by the board and are really up for sale. All we look like getting is a couple of loans. Never felt so disillusioned as i currently do with Saints

 

Redmond Ings hopefully.

 

Any new ST signing for us will be a gamble, unless you pay the £20 million plus needed for a goal scorer that isn't risky, then all else will be the same. Ings I would like, hopefully he does as well as Rodriguez has and develops quickly.

 

Which of our players has banged in 30 premier league goals recently?

 

Not been a fan for long then
