Transfer Rumours The 2015 Summer Transfer Window Thread

Isn't easy but can be done. Why not wait and see what happens before worrying?

 

Exactly, which is what I said at the top. Money and history is all they have over us right now.

 

I always wonder, when our guys go on England duty, they are tapped up constantly, by Gerard, Rooney etc!

 

I'm not worrying I'm excited about what the future might hold and to see if we really can be the challenger at the top end of the table that people within the club say they want to be. I am just not getting my hopes up that it is likely to happen either.

 

I used to think that, but now I think it's just Liverpool's chief scout.... Roy Hodgson

 

Me neither.

 

No I don't like Liverpool, but thanks for asking.

 

Liverpool right now arent all that, their squad is in need of a revamp, I think the manager is out of his depth tactically and whoever is in charge of transfers has ****ed up massively. But they still have the history, the money and the size to be an attractive proposition to most players in the world, including Saints players. As I said before if the option is there for Clyne to join an Arsenal/Chelsea/City/United and he chose Liverpool then, yes he is making a mistake, but I can't blame him for wanting to join them if it is a straight choice between us and them.

 

Saturday/Sunday is going to go like this: Saturday Arsenal win the cup we are overjoyed with making Europe and capping off a fine season then Sunday to top it off we announce Clynes new deal. Other scenario is Villa win the cup and we are all down in the dumps then Sunday Saints announce Clynes new deal to pick us up, win win

 

I said all those things you said apart from the last bit (choosing Liverpool) and that's because the only thing of value is the money. What a shock. If you turn out discussion into an equation, the answer is money. Nothing else.

Being an attractive proposition to "most players in the world" isn't the same as being one for the best. We are an attraction fior most players, but not the best. They are not the force of attraction they once were, if you take money out of the equation. That's my point.

Here it is: if Clyne chooses to join this Liverpool, then yes, I very much blame him. You won't, so fair enough. I'll be mightily pissed with him.

 

Didn't Ron say last week we have had no offers for any of our players?

 

I don't buy that at all. It's turned into an excuse for managers and players to use when they lose after a EL match. Teams from other countries cope just fine I don't see why we couldn't cope if we increased the squad size.

 

Don't forget the pulling power of YNWA. It gave LOLvren goosebumps

 

I did forget that. Clearly I need to forgive Clyne if this happens

 

And so it begins.

 

If you really think the only difference between Saints and Liverpool is money and history then you are looking at it through incredibly Saints tinted glasses

 

Care to elaborate?

 

Err, I think you're on the wrong board if you want a debate with people who don't look at it through Saints tinted glasses...
Why don't you try the Liverpool board, I'm sure they will all agree with you?

 

So do I then.
