Transfer Rumours The 2015 Summer Transfer Window Thread

Exactly. The disaster would be if our next gambled on continental player turned out to be useless and that's bound to happen with a business module such as ours. Dutch or any other league form won't always stand up in the Premier League but our strike rate has been encouraging so far!

 

Rodriguez 16m
Wanyama 24m
Mane 30m

 

If Jay Rod plays well and scores around 15 his price will be £20m maybe more.

 

Doubt he will get that many.

 

This is why clubs of our size just cant break into the top 6 anything like regularly

 

Whereas I think this is the only way we will ever break into the top 6. Deal upon deal, year after year, gradually getting bigger until we are up there.

Maybe you are right..maybe its the only way to do it. We would have to have almost all future signings to pay off tho.big dose of luck involved

 

MLT was a one off I'm afraid....
Not in my lifetime will we see another imo.
I'm not sure I'm cynical more realist lol, just come to the realism that players come players go,players only think of the monitory gain
Not sure many worry about winning things or playing at all tbh just as long as their very well paid.
But one thing I'll be sure of is ill still be going even if we're prem,champ,l1,or even l2.

 

what we must never forget is how our club is defined by the young players we bring through, not the ones we buy and sell on. Provided our strategy maintains this balance the club will always be one we we love and support, for the right reasons

 

And we shouldn't ever forget the Academy, which not only sustains our business model, but every few years provides us with a Bale/Oxo/Shaw level of player who we can introduce to the first team for a couple of years at least.

 

I wonder who we will bring in if mane goes? Redmond?

 

If Man U wouldn't pay anymore than the reported £22m for Pedro.....what makes them think they could get Mane any cheaper? We would want £20+ I would have thought.

 

"Reacted rather angrily to this, don't you dare sell him Saints"

"If Everton can do it so can we. Stick a £40m price on his head and that's it."


This is from monk on saintsweb. Wonder if he is saying that mane reacted angrily

 

Well he's in the training photos so if it all happened last week he obviously hasn't copped a strop yet.

 

I don't think he knows anything yet. It comes across him saying he got angry over it.

 

Haha oh right, unfortunately a lot of people genuinely think of fans as such!

 

Sadio needs to join a union - STRIKE!

 

Don't think these have been posted, apologies if they have.
