Plus there's talk of 3 or 4 players leaving, could add another team into the relegation mix. I think uber will be happy, now I'm off to state Redknapp available to the saints fans I know.
I would be delighted, yes. But only because a number of Saints fans of my acquaintance have turned on me for no apparent reason other than the perception that Fernandes tried to buy success; nothing to do with Redknapp surprisingly, just vitriol that a small club had the audacity to spend big. They quickly forget that they were staring at the financial abyss a few years ago too until a foreign wealthy benefactor stepped in and saved them. I suspect it is nothing more than initial jealousy followed by schadenfreude, but it's been unpleasant.
I get told anyone but Redknapp, the money is secondary. They spent more money than we did. £15m on Osvaldo!
If he goes and a couple of our players leave we will still have the nucleus of a squad that finished 8th a great academy and around £70m to spend. No meltdown here.
4 players of Osvaldos price and ability should do it! You could also get a manager like Hughes who destroys you. Spending money is no guarantee of staying up, we above all know that.
Good one! Seriously though even if we lose Lallana and Shaw we still have a strong spine. We have four players in the England U19 and Ward Prowse captaining the U20's. We will be fine.
