Transfer Rumours JANUARY TRANSFER THREAD

[----HistoryRepeating----]

Its like history repeating itself
-------------------
Been waiting 15 years for that joke......now a name change!

 

[Saints FC 76]

Not got the time to trawl all of this .

Are we likely to sign anyone this window ?

No.

 

[Schad]

Surely classies contract will be up soon?
I thought Barcelona were sniffing around Cedric a while ago?
Carillo is a major problem. Could Ralph transform him as he has with some of our under-achievers?

Clasie's contract expires after next season.

Carrillo has one real strength: winning aerial battles with his back to goal. That's not how we play.

I have zero problem trimming the squad size; indeed, it's something we needed badly. At the same time, I'm a bit dubious that running with Valery/Ramsay is a sound choice, nor that it's Ralph's express desire that we do so given Guan's comments.

 

[Number 1 Jasper]

No.

Thank you

€500k loan
€11m at end of year
Thanks Cedric, have fun in Milan

 

[Saints Fan4Life]

That's another gone from my hitlist this January

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

Nearly 3 Austins, or just under half an Ings.
Yeah, I'll take that as it stands.

 

[Saints FC 76]

€11m seems a low price for Cedric?

 

[Osvaldorama]

Relying on the youngsters... what could go wrong?!

 

[Beef]

Some of you are never happy

 

[OddRiverOakWizards]

Relying on the youngsters... what could go wrong?!

Just ask Alan Hansen!

I don't think anyone disagreed that we needed to trim the squad. That's different than trimming the squad while bringing in absolutely nothing, however. We had a bloated squad that was thin on quality; now we just have a squad that's thin on quality.

 

[VocalMinority]

Less happy with a loan and a 11m euro option to buy(Which is basically a maximum fee as they can ask for less and we can't ask for more)
Not really sure what we gain from this. Couple of mil in wages and we lose our backup RB. Doesn't really seem worth it.

I'm guessing this is just hasenhuttl not wanting unhappy players

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

So that is different to Ings deal then?
Why, is my next question, why would we do that?

Nah, I see it as at last a chance for youngsters to get a chance instead of a guy that is either poor or doesn't to be here. I have for a time now wanted us to give youth a chance and we are.

Our youngsters have deserved a chance for ages now. I haven't seen one let us down yet

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

We are giving youth a chance. Although this does is bring us a step closer to injury crisis for no financial reward.

Having 3 players that can play rb is enough I think

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

That is a stretch. We are not safe yet.

 

[Beef]

End of the day I trust a guy that has turned Saints around. He has changed us from basically looking down to us picking up points and hopefully surviving.
