Summer 2019 Transfer Thread

Yeah I thought we might only let one of those two go, I think if Cav goes too we will sign a striker and a younger attacking player, one of those being able to play as a wider forward if we play 343

Centre back is still a must. And I think we will sign an attacking midfielder. And maybe a wing back. So 3-5 signings IMO

I wouldn't speculate too much on something Nash has probably made up.

To be fair Nash has a good record with this stuff since leaving the guess and stir

Not really. He talks a serious amount of shite.

 

[Johnny75]

You say nobody should be comparing women's to men's football but the media already does. You get total bollocks lines like 'player X has now made Y appearances in the World Cup, equalling Peter Shilton'. Absolute horse shit. If you want comparing and you want parity, play in the same games.

I think the media are part of the problem. The BBC commentary, punditry and reporting of the WWC has been abysmal.

I think 1 or 2 is all we'll get. Hope I'm wrong though as I agree with what you've listed

I think Bennett will start. Doc will still be our only right wingback

Errrr - Robbie Keane?

 

[Lycan]

Southampton have made Lemina available. I'd definitely take him here.

 

[Johnny75]

Me too, he's a cracking player when he's on his game. High work rate and decent shot on him from range. I'm surprised Soton want to let him go as I though he would fit Hasenhuttl perfectly.

 

[Deano]

Lemina is too inconsistent - if we are going to buy a midfielder I think they need to be a more creative player preferably with a half decent goal record.

I just think if they're actively making him available that he's probably going to end up being quite good value. There's a top player in there, he could definitely push Leander for a starting role at the very least and if it clicks he can be amazing.

Apparently Man Utd want him

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Not someone who I'd get too excited about, can't say as I've ever seen him particularly stand out in that Southampton team.

 

[AndyWolves]

Just to play devils advocate we do have a bit of history for letting players who aren't good enough to without necessarily having a back up

Dicko went when he only had Bonatini, Douglas went leaving us with essentially Jonny.

 

[Trips]

I've always thought Lemina has looked bang average for Saints. Certainly not better than the 3 we currently have playing in midfield

We had Vinagre as well as Jonny when Douglas left

I wouldn’t be surprised if Ennis gets a bit more involved, we seem to be really pushing the u23 thing this summer and tbh Ennis might well do a better job than Cav or Costa would up front as it’s his natural position. Not saying he’s the answer but I’d be ok with it if we signed 1 forward player and used him as 4th choice striker.

 

[Johnny75]

I'm not sure any of our u23's are anywhere near the required standard right now although I've not seen Nya play yet.

 

[YoungWolf]

I tend to agree. Ennis is very talented just lost two years of development due to injuries - I think he will still get an opportunity eventually. The only other one really is Kilman who appears to be part of the first team squad now anyway.

 

[Deano]

I think Dion Sanderson will play some part in the friendlies/early europe games.
