Saints transfer rumour thread

That is the key part of that sentence.

*EDIT* Very late due to being a doughnut and not refreshing the page...

 

Do you always have to be negative?

 

Cortese is owed many many favours by many many Italians *taps side of nose*

 

I believe nothing in the media unless it shows Saints in a favourable light...then it will be repeated to anyone who wants to listen (and a few that don't).

 

Well I wonder if most Italians realise just how much money there is for Premiership clubs to spend!

 

UPDATE: Astori-Southampton, not yet: http://www.tuttomercatoweb.com/?action=read&id=411992

"Ballano le cifre per l'eventuale passaggio di Davide Astori al Southampton. Si parla di accordo raggiunto sulla base di dieci milioni di euro. Non è ancora così. Il Cagliari chiede infatti due milioni in più. Dodici o resta in Sardegna. Le parti continueranno a lavorare, anche perché neppure Astori ha trovato l'accordo con la società del presidente Nicola Cortese. Sviluppi la prossima settimana."


EQUALS


"Dance figures for the passage of Davide Astori to Southampton. There is talk of agreement reached on the basis of ten million euro. It is not yet the case. Cagliari asked to make two million more. Twelve or stay in Sardinia. Both sides will continue to work, because even Astori has reached an agreement with the company's president Nicola Cortese. Developments next week."

 

Why have you got a hardon about his wage ? NC thinks he reresents value and we can afford it so that should be good enough

 

I emailed Claus on Facebook about the Molde defender Forren. Claus said he had spoken with him on the phone but doubts he will be joining Saints and the call was more about what the English premiership is like and life in England.

 

How is that Negative?

 

The Amalfi Drive is breathtaking...so are Italian drivers.

 

This could take all month again.... ffs!

 

Lovely stuff...Cortese is back to being our President again. They are a bit ahead of themselves there, Nicola doesn't plan to oust the Queen until 2020.

 

Have to say, you answered me and I thought you were being informative.

 

Ah I missed the amateur Italian-to-English translations.

 

Transfer: Cagliari-Astori agreement to Southampton: http://www.calcionews24.com/calciom...72.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

"CALCIOMERCATO CAGLIARI ASTORI SOUTHAMPTON - Dopo l'uruguaiano Gaston Ramirez, un altro giocatore potrebbe lasciare il nostro campionato per vestire la maglia del Southampton. A fare compagnia all'ex fantasista del Bologna, infatti, dovrebbe essere Davide Astori , il quale è sempre più vicino ad attraversare la Manica e approdare in Inghilterra: secondo i colleghi di Sport Mediaset, infatti, il Cagliari avrebbe trovato l'accordo con i Saints, per cedere il proprio difensore centrale in cambio di un assegno di circa dieci milioni di euro."


TRANSLATED


"Transfer CAGLIARI ASTORI SOUTHAMPTON - After the Uruguayan Gaston Ramirez, another player could leave our league to wear the shirt of Southampton. A company making the former playmaker of Bologna, in fact, should be Davide Astori, who is getting closer to cross the Channel and arrive in England, according to colleagues of Sport Mediaset, in fact, Cagliari have reached an agreement with the Saints, to sell his central defender in exchange for a check for ten million euro."

 

Claus responded to an email on facebook saying he had spoken over the phone to Forren but that he is unlikely to be joining Saints. Think Fulham is his destination

 

Oh god please not.

Spot on - best for everyone if Martin comes back and is involved with us, or (more likely) he is sent out somewhere he can actually play and improve.

Was unlucky at Palace to be thrown into a side devoid of leadership and confidence at the back, and then made the scapegoat.

 

Italian journalist says if you were comparing him to an English defender, he would be Michael Dawson.

 

He doesn't look like someone you'd argue with...a good look for a defender.

 

That was my intention, Dripping just loves to have a dig at me normally.
