    Season after next I think, he'll be in the squad that keeps us ticking over at the top of the table, meanwhile our squad of crack superstars will be laying waste to all that lie in their way in Europe. <whistle>

    Radja Nainggolan is currently sporting this look, all the more reason to sign him...

    looks like a pretentious **** to be honest! Would rather someone who liked to keep his personal life out of the media and focus on football.

    Pleased for Connolly that he has landed a contract at Pompey, even if it is Div 2. He is PL quality when fit.

    He will certainly do a good job for them if he can stay fit!

    Div 2 won't know what has hit them if he stays fit. He was scoring well in League 1 playing for a poor side.

    Would like to see him back, but he wasn't exactly treated well by us.

    Can't see him having a future

    Would you have rather we let him rot on the bench/in the U21s for us? He was never going to play much this season, I think we treated him very well by letting him go to a Championship side.

    Maynor Figueroa has rejected a new Wigan contract. He'd be an excellent squad player for us. covering full back and centre back and with lots of experience. free transfer and a real boost the squad in an area where we are likely to need depth.

    I love translation services, brings back memories of the Saint Gaston thead :) there isn't too much to add apart from the rumour itself in it though -

    "TURIN - The process of building a Juventus plurivittoriosa over time also involves the hunt for external attackers. Those who, for outstanding technical characteristics adapted, or perhaps because in that position, can guarantee to Antonio Conte sure to alternate the Consolidated anything but old-fashioned 3-5-2 to 4-3-3. The research is broad-based and includes both players have passed in our league, and those who could (re) discover their destiny in Italy, bringing with him nicknames that involve duties and honors. This is the case of the Uruguayan national Gaston Ramirez, who at age 22 goes and has already excelled in football in our house wearing the dress of the order of Bologna (15 goals in two seasons season from 60 appearances), dragged thanks to its magic from the frontline up. But before that ripped through the rossoblù to Peñarol for "only" 3.5 million, in the South American land had become known for its quality of external left-handed - hence the nickname "New Nedved" - and then accentratosi to become , as needed, a second striker. An attacking midfielder-rounder who, after the salvation of the designer in Southampton Premier (5 goals in 26 appearances), he joined Juventus in the viewfinder again. Paid 14 million, has a contract until 2016, the same who had in Bologna."

    I'd be disappointed in the club if we were looking to shift him.

    He has a lot of talent and is still young. Loyalty is a two-way thing. Don't expect your own youngsters to be loyal if you're gonna throw people on the scrap heap if they don't perform instantaneously in their first season. He was certainly better than Lallana last season. I am still firmly in the camp that he will come good. We were struggling to unlock defences with Steven Davis in that role when Gaston wasn't playing. I still think he is one of our best players, and should stay.

    The article itself, says Juve are looking for attacking midfielders - and suggests Gaston may be on their radar as they looked at him when he was at Bologna.

    I do think he's a good player and will also be better next year. However if Juventus had concrete interest he would want to go, and with a good offer I think we could replace him comfortably.

    I would. I don't want Saints to sell him but if they do, they should sell him for 20mill at least.
