    He said he was too expensive. Wages presumably. Maybe Ronald was sending a message via the media to Austin's agent. Checked oddschecker and we are odds on with other bookies as well. I suppose he may have dropped his wage demands we'll just have to see :emoticon-0138-think

    Maybe life in the Championship is boring Austin, so he'll lower his wage expectations to get back on the stage. I'd like him very much, for a reasonable sum.

    I am hopeing it's loan in view to a perm. But a fee of £8m is being mentioned on the QPR board.

    That ain't so bad. You could hardly get a Lewis Grabban for that kind of money these days.

    Just checked oddschecker. All but one bookmaker has suspended the betting on Austin's next club.

    If you look closely, Clasie is already looking good :)

    £8m will get you a one-legged pub league striker named Igor this summer, so that's fine by me.

    No doubt. The last couple of games he has been looking solid. I'm a firm believer that he will come good. But we sold Schneiderlin. Clasie wont reach those heights till next season at best. Thats all I'm saying. If we sell this season, be prepared to struggle next until the potential turns into performances. A cautious word that applies to any player, Pelle included.

    If we buy Austin this window it will be a strong indicator that Pelle is off in the Summer I reckon.

    Southampton have delayed talks over a new contract with striker Graziano Pelle, who has 18 months left on his deal with the club, and risk losing the 30-year-old, who has been linked with Juventus and Fiorentina. (Daily Mirror)

    SSN reporting Liverpool interested in signing Shane Long this window. Original source the sun. Unbelievable if true.

    He'd be mad to leave really. Neither spuds nor scousers are known for their patience; a couple of fluffed chances and their fans would be right on his back.

    Some players are a perfect fit for a particular club; Long's a perfect fit for us.
