    Add J-Rod to that list too (pre-injury)

    I always thought Jay had all the necessary skill set for the PL.

    Well he had an England call-up at about the same time as Lallana and Rickie, so I would hope so.

    That was just Jay though. He often disappeared in Saints' games too.

    A bit harsh- if you remember he was in the form of his life and then had that unlucky injury against City. It cost him going to the World Cup.

    True. But it he was given one chance and didn’t make the impact he needed. Had he been given more chances I’m sure he would have taken them.
    Real shame about his injuries, he could have been a top PL strikers.

    Sadly, some players who get a call up based on club form, and do well, still don’t nail down a regular England game. Ricky Lambert scored 3 in 11 appearances, a better ratio than Stirling. That’s life though, and I guess, in fairness, there are only a limited number of spaces available!

    If we sign Adams, then i’d be ok with it but I think the Media are making a bigger fuss of this transfer than it deserves. Carrillo saga may have woken the board up a bit regarding quality to fees and personally okerke looks better to me. I’d still take Bowen from Hull over both.

    Any update on this one? Seems to be going one way now... not in our favour.

    Unless the player kicks off to force a move, I don’t think this will happen now

    The media have said we’re looking at this guy as an alternative



    He looks a lot more fun

    I'd be happy to bring in someone like Okereke alongside another striker, with both Long and Austin outbound. Having a strike force of the oft-injured Ings, the still pretty raw Okereke, Long and the (according to Ralph) talented-but-not-hardworking-enough Obafemi sounds like a recipe for a lot of Shane Long.

    Apparently last night someone in Saints Web said this was done. Hopefully just a matter of time now.

    If this is true then fantastic. Price wise - almost a straight swap: Targett out and Adams in. Absolute no brainer.
