And there's also Marcus Olsson who is Martin's identical twin brother. He plays for both Blackburn & Sweden as well!

so which of the twins is the Swedish one?

Is the Caught Offside website a load of balls? They are reporting us interested in signing Ryan Babbel?? Can't see that myself.

Most likely, but I guess its a 'rumour' so it fits with are Transfer Rumour Thread. Actually, that Nixon chap from the Mirror has stated that Babel has been offered around but not sure if he would go to Saints.

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

Babel is described as lazy...definately not one for us. Prerequisites for a Saints player are eagerness to learn, hardworking and being a team player.

Heard rumours we might be after Kieran Trippier from Burnley.

If this happens burnley might as well officially become our feeder club.

Burnley fans speak very highly of him and say he has as much, if not more, potential than our most recent signing.

I've not seen that, but I know they do rate him very highly

Well, I say "fans"; it was one fan.

lol great sample size

We'll get a bigger player than Trippier.

Heard his name once before and that is it.. So can't really judge.

But I think we'll get a bigger name player

Bigger name??????!!?!

I ****ing hate that phrase. If someone has enough talent, it shouldn't ****ing matter if they are well-known for ****'s sake.

So you're shunning the idea not because of his ability, but because of your ignorance? Fair enough.

 

[Saintmagic]

The couple of Burnley fans I know speak very highly of Trippier. Re Rodriguez they both said the same thing, got a lot of potential but feel they got a good fee for him, neither think he is anywhere near as good as Steven Fletcher who they got £6.5 mil for

Don't you understand? If RLGB hasn't heard of him, he must be ****e.

Trippier won burnley's player of the season, not exactly a bad sign, plus he is only 21.
