AC Milan striker Adrian would be a real coup if we could get him, ok he hasn't been as good as was last year which is why he'd be a lot cheaper but I think we could get him scoring again, thoughts?

You mean Atletico.

Yh sorry * Athletico Madrid, still thoughts?

He would be a good signing and he would offer a lot to the team in terms of goals he scored 19 last season bur diego costa took his place don't know why? But I suppose diego costa is better. He could deffiantly hack it in the prem and he would provid a quality which we don't have in the goal area, lambert and jay are good don't get me wrong but they aren't world class yet! Lambert won't ever be world class, which is a shame because if he was 24-26 he could easily turn it to one but he isnt. So i'm thinking lopez could easily be in the top scorers area next season provided he gets the servise he needs, that's why players like Lamela would be good signings because they can provid the services he needs and then Lallana can go to his prefered side on the left! And lamela on the right with Lopez up front would give us the edge we are missingnat them moment. that's what I think anyway

Sir Alex leaving, Rooney maybe leaving and probably a new wonder price striker being brought in. I'm thinking now would be the time for us to sign a prolific poacher like Hernandez or even Welbeck could do a job. Good work rates, goal scorers, pace to boot and could very well be available this summer. What do you reckon?

I reckon you're dreaming and this is why people say we are deluded because of people like you who post this c**p

Also how is Welbeck prolific he scored 1 I repeat 1 league goal this year

I think people missed your point. hernandez is prolificm welbeck could do a job and i'm pretty sure this isn't an actual rumour, more of a 'these guys might be worth a go'.

I know it isn't an actual rumour, but what's the point, it is implying these players would come to us which they won't. They play for Manchester United

Is this the same hernandez that real madrid want as any exchange for ronaldo?

some how I don't think it will happen. got more chance of signing higuian of madrid. get real

Ronaldo isn't leaving Madrid. Telling other people to get real when you're quoting paper talk.

I'll weigh in here, I don't see Hernandez or Welbeck staying at United. Players of their calibre won't like playing second fiddle forever. Hernandez would probably go to the Spanish league if anything. But Welbeck? Now Welbeck would stay in England and he could be a proper striker if a team played to his strengths and more importantly, actually had him as a striker. Look around England, where could he go better then Saints; Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs, Arsenal, City. They'll all be looking for an already finished product. The only three sides I could realistically see a player like Welbeck at next season, aside from United, is Everton, Saints and Swansea.

Hernandez is decent but not world class, yet too big a name for us to attract at this moment. Welbeck is the new Emile Heskey - no thanks.

With Rooney leaving I can see Hernandez playing a lot more unless they sign another big name striker

Jesus get a grip no wonder saints fans are getting the rip taken, we will be buying abroad as we are not yet a big enough pull for players getting game time at the major clubs here.
