Vegard Forren's agent speaks about Southampton

I totally agree. As a League 1 signing Guly was an absolutely ridiculous find. It's not his fault that we got back to back promotions, well in some ways it is, which goes to show how good a signing he was. Can you imagine if you offered his services to Crawley Town, they'd snap your hand off.

 

Milan aren't renewing Bojan or Nocerino's contracts, if that's counting for something.

 

I agree...we have some players to shift who have hardly featured or not featured at all, but cannot see too many purchases. The contract renewals indicate a desire to hold onto the core of the team. Too many new signings may destabilise the team. About 3-4 signings of young, talented and hard-working players would be ideal, especially 2 defenders. QPR are an example of what can happen if you randomly sign expensive players who go on to coast through the season. Southampton are building to a design.

 

I agree unfortunately. If he was eyeing a move, then he`d have keeping himself fit, albeit not match fit, after the end of the Norwegian season. He`s not a youngster, and he hasn`t made any impact at all - Poch sees him in training every day, and is unimpressed, evidently. Hope he proves me wrong !

 

I'll start being concerned about Forren if he doesn't play at all this season. He was signed at a time when we were in a real dogfight (still are, but nowhere near as bad) and the defence was starting to look reasonably solid. Think he will get a run out or 2 in the last few games if we are safe.

 

Oh, I meant players leaving rather than arriving. We've got quite a few loan players coming back to join a large bunch who don't get anywhere near the first team. Loads of movement out.

 

I'd take Nocerino just for his facial hair.

 

Sorry about the triple post, it told me it hadn't been posted each time? Might have a gremlin somewhere.

 

Nice to see an agent with what seems an ounce of common sense.

 

Foren was brought in to strengthen a weak defence, that conceded far too many goals.

Problem is, that defence has become stronger without him. Hooiveld and Yoshida have improved massively this 2nd half of the season - it's clear that they've worked v hard on the training ground.

Perhaps the arrival of Foren was exactly what our existing centre halves needed to give them a nudge up the backside!

 

If cortese needed to pay 3million euro for a nudge up the backside i would of sold him my mum

 

I get Le God too do those things, he's my AM

 

Both would be good players for us. Nocerino especially because of his beard, as PTF said.
