I've made some actual progress the past couple of days mate getting people to sign up to the #SaidoCamp, and we're even linked with him in the press too!

Maybe I should start a drive for us to sign Messi?

The #MessiMassive ???

More like massive mess ! Thanks Roberto!

clearly koeman has asked for a target man to play alongside rom (might actually benefit rom a lot having someone else do a bit of the dirty work) and if it's belfoldil who walsh thinks will improve us, i'm all for it.

He's had a lot of clubs, but still young and can still improve. Even if he doesn't score a load of goals, if he can bring others in to play, and make more room for rom to score more goals it'll be worth it just for that.

Don't you think there's a chance he's a massive tit because of what's gone on between him and WBA? Balotelli is also a massive tit, yet for the right team, there he is in Italy banging them in. With a bit of TLC and guidance, he could be really good in my opinion. In his one decent year before his relationship with the gaffer fell off a cliff, he just reminded me of Sturridge, without the fitness issues.

For anything close to 10M, he has to be worth a go. I'm struggling to understand why people are against it for 10M, the same 10M we've put on Niasse whom I'm not even sure is a footballer...

Balotelli is a massive tit because he has a massive ego. Yeah hes doing well over in France but he should be as its a much easier league than the prem

Berahino is worth a gamble, would be an excellent foil for Lukaku with his pace and movement, plus he can score goals. I like him as a player, questionable attitude but apparently WBA broke a promise to him so maybe thats why he's being a horror.

If he doesnt work out, there will always be teams willing to pay money for him.

Welcome to the #SaidoCamp mate!

Good to have you on board

Our numbers continue to grow

Ahh screw it, I may as well join but I still have my reservations

Don't want Sigurdsonn personally.

I'd wait until his contract is up in the summer and get him for free / on a tribunal. Definitely has a questionable attitude so shelling out 20m on him now would be silly imo. Get him on the cheap, give him a 3-year deal and sell him if he causes trouble - there will always be some soft manager willing to throw 10m at us to take him.

Most overrated underrated player in existence.

Do I think he is a good player- yes.

Would he significantly improve us - not in my opinion.

His stats are good for chance creation - but crucially nowhere near as good as Baines who he'd be up against - and from open play Barkley is better.

@Mikey_Fitzgerald what are you going to do when the first picture of him holding a stoke shirt is posted in here? Lol

Welcome mate!

Need to see a bit more about him before we consider PUTTING him down as a definite maybe. Seems a bit ROUGH around the edges and a bit of a journeyman - but all PAR for the COURSE for some!
