Fonte on the bench for Saints today, wonder if that's due to the contract situation? If so, we might well swoop in, we could use him. Fonte/Williams is very steady for a couple of seasons.
 
I don't think we are purely sell to buy.... What if though we are sell to buy everything Koeman wants?

If say we sold Barkley, but brought in Depay, Schneiderlin, Dzagoev and Van Dijk....would that be considered a gain or a loss?

That is probably a net of 55m(ish) spend and I can't see us going higher than that (if that high). Have to think we need to free up some cash if VVD is on the shopping list.

Then potential sales of McCarthy and dregs (if they come off) to free up other purchases (stuff like Lookman, Avari or the like).

Don't really think we will sell Ross, but then again I think if Koeman thought it meant VVD he just might....

Koeman doesnt play a number 10 normally, I can totally see him moving Ross on if an offer was made.

Then again Ross isn't really a number10 anyway IMO.

part of a 3 man midfield then yeah can see that being his position now, guess tomorrow will show us if the arsenal game with him was just a blip or a sign of soemthing more
 

He is not slow will improve, no better than some youngsters we have already at this moment in time.

that injury must have done him in then as he was top notch for villa and france u21s...very highly rated and would have been villas best player when he was there last season--including gueye in that.

unless he just had an off game.
 
Oh Zach, behave lad, you thought Galloway would replace Baines this season, yanno Galloway who can't even get a game for West Brom when they have a couple of injuries amongst the back 4

Galloway looked better than baines last season. Baines has been nothing like he was 3+ years ago...game vs arsenal he was good but lets see if he keeps up and improves that level.

lots were saying he was finished before the arsenal game...

No mate, Galloway didn't look better than Baines last year, he looked much better than we thought he would do - but thats completely different.

The stats back me up on it btw, Baines per 90 created more, did more defensive actions, and made less errors. and the team conceded goals at a much reduced rate when he was playing (if you remember i gave you those stats at the time)

Is Baines as good as he was - obviously not, is he far better than the majority of left backs in this league still - then yes, people really saying that Baines was finished before the Arsenal game, then there daft or just doing the typical picking out a player to suit there agenda against that player.
