EDS - any further updates on Tonny Vilhenna or Filip Djurcic? Both seem good prospects, Tonny a great replacement for Cork and Filip looks fast and skillful - should work with Pelle hold up play. Koeman confirmed interest so I reckon we will be going for both - guessing contracts, fees and agents would be only stumbling blocks as with all transfers. Deadline day drama do we think??

Believable1 Unbelievable1

{Ed002's Note - Tonny Vilhena is attracting the interest of Southampton, Napoli and Juventus, but Feyenoord do not want to sell before the summer. Southampton have submitted an offer for the player to see what the reaction will be.

An effort is being made to bring Djuricic to the club on loan - it is dragging out rather.}

Cheers, let's hope we hear something soon then, think they would both be great additions.

I see Vilhena is keen on the move, but we have already had 1 bid rejected by feyenoord, however i think (after researching) that this is more likely to happen than the Djuricic deal which is dragging out for some reason.

Maybe work permit is reason?

Agree1 Disagree3

{Ed002's Note - It will be to do with extracting him from a loan contract with an option to buy.}

Saints have bid for Tonny Vilhenna according to Dutch press. Very good prospect. And might I add a thanks and good luck to his predecessor, Jack Cork. Up the Saints

Agreed that he is a good replacement for Cork and a great prospect. Not long to go until the window closes so hopefully will get it done.

I am sure that Vilhenna if we get him will be a good addition to the squad, wonder whether he can bring some shooting boots with him. I just hope that one day one of our super midfield players can score a couple of goals. They can only be classed as top class if they chip in with a goal or two and to be honest I haven't seen any of them trouble the goalkeeper for some time now. Hope that all changes tomorrow and maybe JWP can score his FIRST premier league goal, it would certainly increase his confidence.

completely agree chrisdown. JWP has ability to strike but is inconsistent from range in open play, davis has come close when he does, but needs to hit more, tadic most definitely needs to shoot more, i remember at home (forgot game but we won) where he controlled the ball first touch cruyff turn and sold the defender and struck it with his left foot on the turn almost went in, need more of that!!!!!

Agree that the two we are trying to get in before window shuts would be great additions. Someone needs to get JWP to a shooting training session (s). The rest of his play is almost there to become a future great midfielder. Mane back and hopefully injury free so is Yoshida. Just need to dig in for the next 6 games whilst waiting for Spider, Toby and Long to return. I have a feeling that we won't see Jay Rodrigues play this season. COYR's

Victor and Morgan have scored 6 between them? Not bad for two CDM's.

Not recently, ok earlier in the season but all dried up since then.

Paddysketch - i think Wanyama/Spider and Toby may all be fit for QPR, long is 4-6 weeks i think

Would be great to see those 3 back ahead of time saintjimbo. I think West Ham game will probably be the one. Once we get all inured parties we will have a strong squad especially if we see one or both additions as rumoured. French sports media are saying that our media have it twisted about Spider and no contact has been made between the gunners and saints regarding transfer. Rumours regarding Jay Rodrigues have surfaced again but one that is interesting is him training with view for some sort of playing time this month sometime. Will Elia take over Long's role? COYR's

As long as wanyama or spider is back for QPR (at least one of them) we can manage without toby for another game as yoshida is back. If we get the 2 additions then that should be good cover for long, but will miss his experience and tanacity off the bench
