in his interview #saintryan said he has got assurances from the club before signing. I'm hoping that meant other players would be arriving as opposed to "You're definitely playing mate"
Going from hoping to sign Rojo to actually bringing in Bertrand and being back in for Redmond is like going out to get a Mercedes and coming home with a reliant robin.
Rojo played LB for Argentina but is predominantly a CB for Sporting. Feel like we're still on that one.
Saints welcome Ryan Bertrand on loan with an option to buy. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/30072014-statement-ryan-bertrand-joins-on-loan-1794098.aspx Personally I think this is a good solid signing of an English player of a good age. His positioning looked suspect at times last year but he likes to get forward which will suit our new shape. In Koeman We Trust!!
I forgot Bertrand started the Champions League final when Chelsea won in 2012. What a statement of ambition from the board! Right?
remember when we should have had a penalty after the ball hit his arm last season!!! and lallana went all diva-ish to the referee
Ron will get the best out of him does indeed like to get forward , hopefully this will lead to a few more being announced over the next week or so.
Peach: .@ryanbertrand3 arrival should ease concerns about @jackcork1's future. The pair grew close at #CFC & will have surely spoken about the move Did I mention earlier that they came up together? Yes I believe I did.
When I heard this news break I thought this wasn't a bad bit of business. After reading the comments on here, I was clearly wrong! Didn't realise he was 24, geez.
This x 10. What would be really smart now is signing Rojo as a CB, who can offer LB too in case it doesn't work out.
Not sure why everyone's complaining, solid left back for a bottom half premier league team. He wasn't as bad at villa as people are making out. Plus he was surrounded by turd there
I'll assume that's sarcasm... I should clarify. It's the fact he's been with Chelsea so long and never really shone. Aka, I'm amazed he still hasn't been released at that age when it's clearly he's not a first team player.
