We are to bring in Rojo for £15 M and a big money striker too. Just because it hasn't happened yet does not mean it won't because we've spent 10M on FF. So far we've spent 30m on 5 players. We still have 60M on player sales before the planned budget originally.
What £10M....are you serious....this deal could of been wrapped up weeks ago. And before you mention Celtic CL, not buying it. Celtic are the ones who have played hard ball as I said they would 2 weeks ago.
I think it's been pretty clear for a while that we've had this deal ready to go, but Celtic wanted to wait for their UCL games to clear and Gordon to get match fitness.
Shouldn't he be concentrating on preparing for Scotland's Euro 2016 qualifiers, not trying to play for Celtic.
The selling club generally gets that luxury. I'd imagine that the timing of some of our outgoing players was decided by us, as well.
Sorry, your first choice keeper is utter garbage. I know what I like in goalkeepers, because I played in goal myself. Artur is one of the worst in the league, you defo needed bolstering in this department. As a Newcastle fan, I can tell you a few things about Fraser. 1. we've had endless "should we have sold Krul and kept Forster" debates on our board, and Forster-sympathisers always lose. Krul's not a world-class goalkeeper, by any stretch, but he's level with Forster in probably ever respect except catching crosses. Krul is one of the best in the world at it when he's fully fit. Forster is a useful goalie, but the consensus is we made the right choice in letting him go. 2. we still think he's a talent, but occasionally a bit ungainly and slow to be a great of the future. £10 million for him seems a bit pricey indeed, but if he stays at Southampton for many years, it's worth it, and if he becomes a regular international, he could be sold for double that in future. 3. he's very professional, which is not something Southampton should take for granted, considering the behaviour of recent and current players (before some hothead rants at me about this. Osvaldo, Lallana, Schneiderlin etc). Wish him the best at your club Last post I made on this forum, I noted the comparisons between our owner's strategies, to mixed response. One chap from here even suggested that you were certain to spend £120 million I wonder how we reflect on that now, with few days left til the new season? £10 million on Fraser isn't too bad, but so many more areas need addressing now. Cutting it close indeed here lads. you need players and quick!
Think we should of held back a tad on some, which is obviously now occurring with Schneiderlin. Lots of outgoings too quick (should of made some of the c**** sweat). With a week to go till start of season, lots of money in bank, we will paying top dollar for any signing now.
Yeah. Cech, Boruc and Hart were the only keepers to concede less than a goal per game on average but he's one of the worst in the league.
Yes, because clean sheet stats are purely reflective of the goalkeeping abilities. Have a yourself sonnnnnnnnn
Hmm, 4th most clean sheets in the league last year, and had the best save percentage of any keeper in the league until he got injured. Yes. Utter, utter garbage.
I wonder if you wise sages realise that Boruc has several "blunder compilations" Yeah, you must be right, he's ****ing mint
