A story from Spain says due to poch's connection with martino, the barca manager. We might be signing Christian tello on loan untill the season with a view to permanent if we get Europe
This season Europe is not going to happen, we will not loan unless a permanent deal is with all the cards in our hand and we can guarantee it if we want it.
If we start playing a strong side in the fa cup then Europe could happen! With our current league position why not go for a cup run?! Tello would be awesome but I'll believe it when I see it!
Do you think that Cortese is the kind to hinge the signing of a great player on a cup run which can end very suddenly? He wants more security in his signings I'm pretty sure of that.
I wasn't suggesting sign him on the idea of a cup run. I was suggesting we go for it since we won't make Europe through the league. why not go for silverware and a back door in to Europa cup. Wheter that means making signings or not. I merely stated that tello would be a great signing on loan, with or without winning thd the fa cup. In my opinion we need to strengthen at centre bqck, anything else is a bonus. Who wouldn't want a trip to Wembley and a trophy in the cabinet??
Connection with martino in that case we will take pique and messi as we'll!!
I do not want saints to qualify for europe this season, we just don't have the depth or numbers to cope. May sound stupid but i'd rather we try settle into the top 10 this year and maybe even next aswell then see where we are.
Qualification to Europe could be a double edged sword, but if we added another 3 quality players in the summer I'd argue that we could probably cope with it reasonably well. Added to that the players coming through our academy, it would be a great learning experience for the Saints players.
Yes it may affect our league performances, but overall it would be a benefit for Saints overall stature.
