Comment | Puncheon Is Back

I think De Ridder needs a run of games to settle down. Everytime he gets a chance, there's too much pressure on him to prove himself. He needs to be told he's gonna play 3 or 4 games etc.
Falque, is a promising talent and shouldn't be written off after 1 game. Nigel will will work with closely this next couple of weeks i should imagine.
As for Puncheon, well we'll wait and see. Hopefully it adds competition for places and might get a bit extra out of the midfield. |

Exactly Geezer, it's not too difficult to do a bit of research. Harry, must be showing blind faith in him for taking him on loan and then deciding to buy him, must have thought he was bobbins.
Also, just to re-iterate, Jos Hooiveld is also a January signing...in effect.
I don't agree that we should just wave the checkbook to please the fans. Yes, i would love us to buy some BETTER players, but who is really out there and wants to come for less than 40k? I'd be happy with getting Hooper in and that's that.

Not forgetting big Jos, who is also a January signing. We've got a 6ft pacey striker in Lee ( i would have preferred Sordell, but hey ho) and a very promising Spanish starlet in Falque. From what i've seen of him, he has a cracking strike and will really add to the team. It will also give Lallana some competition as the playmaker as well, as well as take some of the pressure of him.
Regarding further transfers, it has to be difficult for Saints, clubs know we have the money and where a player may be worth 3mil, they will hold out for 6mil until the final day. We have to pay what a player is worth and can cut it in the premier league. It's very difficult i should imagine to get the right player, for the right value.
Another point, is to not upset the applecart, yes we have had a couple of hickups, but we are still going along steadily. Corteses vision is to bring the youth through, bringing 5 players through on 3 year contracts will hinder that and the club in what they're trying to achieve. One more striker will be enough, offload Puncheon & Barnard and we will be strong enough i think. |
