Why are we waiting for Saints to sign a decent striker before we get their rehabilitation project?

Why don't we challenge for the decent striker. Small time attitude in my opinion

How do you know we aren't? Its not like we only need one striker.

[CL3MO]

This is actually embarrassing TBH, we are prepared to take on their 3rd choice striker even after they have sold the likes of Mane, Wanyama and Pelle? and we wait around for them to sort their transfer dealings... really?

Christ, just imagine how Stoke feel about waiting for Berahino then...

  agree this is a total embarrassment , to think we've got to wait for them to spend 9million before we can have their cast off . Then pay them to get him fit  and they'll take him back at the end of the season . Absolute farce 

[SirTonyM]

If they are hanging on you wonder if we do actually want to sell, I assume they have been given some positive noises.

Think his replacement is going to cost closer to 20million.

My prediction is that Stoke will sign Sakho and we will end up keeping Berahino

They are signing two players, a £9m striker and a £20m attacking midfielder

How thrilling if we can beat off Hull to get a loan!

I fully see it happening and that would be the straw that breaks the camels back for me. Would actually even start to have some slight sympathy for Berahino then as we have now had a more than acceptable offer.

Hull favorites to land Rodriguez now.

Can't even tie up a squad player loan..............

[paulosull]

How come we keep looking at players who have just come back from injury or are unproven at this level when it comes to Loan's?anyone thought of asking man city to loan out bony or anybody

It's getting laughable now, I notice alot of other potiential signings we face competition from 2 or 3 other Prem clubs.

Forget them players then!!

this transfer window is an absolute joke if you are a fan of the Albion, two signings that wouldn't turn your head and one of them a loan deal .

If we do get Rodriguez lets hope he finds the form he has before his injuries, poor bloke has been out for nearly 2 years

[wbawill]

Rodriguez looked great before his injuries; if we were to get that player we'd be very lucky. The only thing is, how many players come back the same after two years out? I can't say I hold much hope if I'm honest, even though I do remember a time when we had a bit of a reputation for being able to help players recover from chronic injuries. As other people have noted, Southampton are getting a very good deal with this one: if he gets back to full fitness then they get back a very good player, if he doesn't then they haven't wasted any of their own time trying. It somehow doesn't feel quite right to be helping out a rival in that way.

According to Wikipedia, Rodriguez signed a new 4 year contract with Southampton in May last year, which was 13 months after he ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament, so they must have been pretty confident that he wasn't permanently crocked by the injury.

He made 12 appearances for them last season which, whilst not very many, does mean that he hasn't been out for 2 years.

Looks more like 1 1/2 years out 3 1/2 years

But yeah has to be a good sign if Saints wanna keep him.


I was going off this mate, either way I hope he finds some form.
