Ah yeah forgot about Chamberlain.

Cracking piece of business from you lot <laugh> <ok>
 
There's no way it's £5m guys, calm down. If we offered £4m for the two combined why would we raise that to £6.8m?? That's a very steep climb. And why would we spend £5m on Jay Rod when we could spend it on Maynard who is a better player?
 
According to Rodriguez' wikipedia page hes already signed for Southampton for £5million...
Im guessing this is people jumping the gun a little?
 
Has anybody got twitter here so they could ask Fourth Official about the Maynard deal and if he heard anything about Jay Rod?


tweet from fourth official

Southampton are progressing on a move to bring Jay Rodriguez to the club, Nicky Maynard is also a target, they want both players #Saintsfc
 
J-Rod is used as a winger on occasion so it would make sense to have both. Rodriguez could play on either side of the top when we play just one main striker or be a partner when we play two up.
 
Surely it would have been more correct of him (or her) to tweet "either" rather than "both". Whilst we might be chasing both of them, we're surely only going to actually sign one of them? Makes perfect sense to chase both, just in case one brakes down for whatever reason - but like I say, we're not actually going to sign both of them surely?

It would great yes, but not needed in the slightest. Would almost certainly spell the end of Barnard's career here is we did sign both. But I just don't see it. It'll be one at best, not both....surely?
