I thought it was two loans from a particular club? We had more than two loans last time.

Memories of Ryan Mason and Jimmy Bullard, big signings and big injuries.
Must be a decent chance we'll get a new record signing though.
We're more prone to Messi signings...
When they're on free's the wages become palatable dont they. Lets say he was on 150k a week. He's only 26. 3 year contract costs you 22.5 million. If you wanted to sign him, what would you have to pay, and what would his wages be on top..?
Aaaah just seen from m88 he was on 350k a week..... derrrrrrr..
He's leaving juve because he wants a higher wage..
Anyway, I'm sure Sergei has a handle on a very good 'Ovic' ...
Aye
He’ll do..
*obviously we won’t sign him, but we’ll maybe need to play against him.
Craig Bellamy said he thinks Koumas is more suited as a striker than a winger (which is what I said months ago), as far as I’m aware, not that Koumas himself thinks his preferred position is striker. Koumas came here as a winger and was mostly played on the wing, where he was crap.
You can have two domestic loans in total and only one loan from any given club. You can have more international loans can’t remember the limit on those, think it’s 5.
He'd be a great signing you think. Solid competition for Giles and sorts out a position without spending a penny.
Saints trying to sign Daniel Peretz on a permanent for £7m. I’d be all over him for that price, thought he was the best keeper in the league during his loan spell
Yeah, Bellamy’s obviously realised that he’s not much of a winger but as a striker, he’s got lots of pace and is a good finisher, which is exactly why I would think he’d be worth having around to throw on at the end of a game if we’re under the kosh and struggling to grab a goal. At the right price of course.
Re Koumas, for me he's a long way off being the quality to worry any premier league defender. If we had to spend money on him there are surely better options.
Different opinions, I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what those making the decisions think. They may well decide against, if the deal isn’t right anyway.
He looked way off it in the Championship. Scored a few goals, yes, but the kid can’t dribble properly. He’s quick and an okay finisher but his dribbling, crossing, first touch and general decision-making isn’t even Championship level, let alone Premier League level. I can’t believe people want us to waste a loan spot or even sign him permanently. It’s like winning £200 million in the lottery and buying a Vauxhall Corsa.
I agree M88, expect Acun to fatten the ox up a bit then sell some or all of his stake. If so he goes with his reputation now intact and certainly with my thanks. Personally I'd prefer him to bring in some more investment and stay as I think he could be a great figurehead for us in the sea of PL leadership dross.
