There is a rumour of a rumour on Saintsweb that he was at the Hawthorns with Cortese in the directors boss. Im calling BS on that one!
Although I now have an amusing image of Cortese gesturing wildly at the pitch, "you see now, they won't putta the ball in the backa of the net."
Called probably the last 8 transfers right. He usually posts when they are having a medical, or very close to being announced as signed. May have just got over excited about our result today though!!
I did see Cortese in the directors box, when he came back from half time, but I'm pretty sure Osvaldo wasn't there. Think he is still in Rome.
A player as recognisable and high profile as Osvaldo would never have slipped under the radar if he was at the Hawthorns today.
So looking forward to Twitter when this one breaks! Was just talking to one of my mates who is an Arsenal fan and he pretty much lost his mind when I told him that this transfer seems close.
I was talking to an Arsenal fan earlier who was telling me about how panicky he is that every good striker seems to have been signed up, he was saying Osvaldo would be very near the top of his wishlist of players left. Could be fun.
True, I heard a rumour that Anelka was there as well, must be rubbish though someone would have noticed him.
