Virgil van Djik to have a medical on Monday evening, while Leon Goretzka could be on his way by Friday with a fee of 11.4m to be accepted by Schalke.
1.) 08 Aug 2015 11:58:49
Is that despite the fact Koeman out rightly said Goretzka wasn't on his list? I can't think of a time he's lied when asked directly about a player.
2.) 08 Aug 2015 12:18:58
Who knows, but he did say that we didn't have a chance of getting Toby on loan from AM last season, just before we did.
3.) 08 Aug 2015 12:20:21
iirc he did say Alderweireld wasn't a target this time last year
4.) 08 Aug 2015 17:26:55
I don't see how van dijk could be having a medical when Celtic came out and said there had been no bids for him as of yet

Is Specs85 Dave Watson's other son?

7.) 09 Aug 2015 11:00:20
no medical is booked.
8.) 09 Aug 2015 11:13:20
even if this were true you wouldn't get any credit. I posted the medicals of soares, juanmi, and clunker and all were rubbished. for the same reason I can tell you no medicals are booked that far in advance.

As you know Ed 007 knows exactly what is going on at Celtic and as he said before there is no way the hoops will let him go before the CL play offs . I know nobody ever agrees with me but at least I don't put down made up rubbish . I still think we will get somebody else in than VVD and hope it will be Abdennour but I do think our chances of getting a player of his quality are pretty limited . We should have won that game today , sort the defence out and we will be hard to beat again . Targett tried hard but got caught out a couple of times , he will learn and is a great prospect . Thought Martina looked pretty good when he came on , all we need is a bit of speed on the ball at CB and we will be just fine .

was saying exactly this about celtic before ed007, kind of obvious after forster.
11.) 11 Aug 2015 10:16:17
Which Monday are you referring to?
12.) 11 Aug 2015 18:13:03
Hi Cyprussaint. I guess the clue is in your name but are you actually based in Cyprus?
13.) 11 Aug 2015 22:07:40
I am indeed and was hoping to get drawn against a local team for this round until they all got knocked out
14.) 12 Aug 2015 01:23:25
I come to Cyprus( Paphos) on the 19th August and will be proudly wearing my Saints away shirt whilst there.

Looks like Caulker loan deal is to be completed by this time tomorrow, still looking for another defender and another packet winger (Dennis Praet) would be good.
1.) 29 Jul 2015 13:39:48
Praet's not a winger. But he would be good. We're still stuck with Davis and Ward-Prowse as our midfield playmaker options. Which is a bit meh, IMHO.
2.) 29 Jul 2015 14:30:24
Praet is very versatile.
3.) 29 Jul 2015 21:59:36
And Tadic is very much a playmaker.
4.) 29 Jul 2015 22:40:24
ward-prowse is a very very good talent I rate him right up there he needs game time and for me he's better than Ramirez also Davis is very underrated he's always solid and confident on the ball let's just hope we bring in another CDM and possibly another CB not sure on VVDscottish football is always 1 way Celtic don't really have to defend so a more solid CB for me but in Koeman we trust!
5.) 30 Jul 2015 00:35:29
I personally don't think we need another CDM, as we have one already in Harrison Reed. Reed, in my humble opinion is going to become a formidable player, but he does need game-time. JWP will go on to become a top player, as could Targett.
My one worry this season is what happens when Jose Fonte (Baby) gets injured. It seems to me that our captain fantastic has become the one player that you can't leave out of the team.
As for Ramirez, I guess we'll look to move him on due to his high wages, and lack of results. He's just not worth it
6.) 30 Jul 2015 05:31:49
In our situation we need 4 rotating DMs. A player who is both physically strong and can use the ball is what we need in case Clasie or Wanyama don't play and the team is unbalanced.
7.) 30 Jul 2015 11:27:13
We need a big strong CDM wanyama looked lost last season against Leicester he was all Over the place but reed looked good in that game I think we need 1 more CDM keep reed there with clasie and wanyama and bring in 1 more to push them for a starting place and that should be midfield sorted and I'm liking our attacking options pelle jrod mane tadic Mayuka long Davis ward prowse possibly Ramirez although I think he's on his way and our youth players look decent isgrove McQueen hesketh we are set maybe 1 out and out striker maybe king lambert coming home??

@teejaysaint very funny!
30 Jul 2015 11:21:33
Looking good so far, if I was RK I'd line up like this.
Stekelenburg
Martina (Bertrand when he's fit)
Fonte
Caulker
Soares
Ward-Prowse
Wanyama
Clasie
Mane
Pelle
Rodriguez
Come On You Saints!
1.) 30 Jul 2015 12:19:08
Agree specs, but I'd have targett instead of martina
2.) 30 Jul 2015 18:23:30
Martina is a RB?
3.) 30 Jul 2015 18:53:05
Martina can play all across the back 4, looks best at right back though
