AKCJ Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 Southampton have had an awesome summer. The sort we used to have. 1
StarkFox Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 (edited) Southampton having a decent transfer window and are linked to some good players. Gakpo being one. At least we’re taking their head of recruitment, hopefully most of these players are coming from him and we can steal some of these deals later down the line. Edited 1 September 2022 by StarkFox
CrispinLA in Texas Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 Southampton fans started talking about him right now....while we've been banging on about him for over a week. Looks like their recruitment board have been looking at foxestalk!
Danny280995 Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 Just now, StanSP said: Clubs making signings is wrecking our club ? We won't sign everyone we're linked with. People perhaps need to get a bit more reality around the situation. We're not going to be like Forest and sign 20 players. We don't have the wage flexibility to do so because of who's currently at the club. This won't be the first 'target' we miss out on, and won't be the last. People moaning cause they want Leicester player's to have good rating in fifa 23, so signing like him would make them happy for fifa 23😂😂 1

No, "club making signings" is not what I am referring to Rodgers, the financial issue ( whatever that is) our current league position,and so on and on.

Read the room. We haven’t got a huge amount to buy this player or anyone, don’t get upset by something that was never happening anyway that’s your personal issue if you truly believed we would when for months we had jack. Expect huge losses in next years annual report. Come to terms half way during pre season that something wasn’t quite right. Edited 1 September 2022 by Lesta Legend 1
LCCFox96 Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 If Southampton punt Stephens and Bednarek today and bring in Caleta-Car and Lacroix as replacements, on top of the Bella-Kotchap deal earlier in the window they've had a monstrous summer for beefing up at CB. 1
Guest itude Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 (edited) We don't have the money ?, or is it an FFP issue, is it our wage bill, or someone wanting their debt paying back ?? Seems like different folks believe different things, it all goes back to bad management, and not just that of Rodgers. Edited 1 September 2022 by itude
South Shire Fox Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 Really dont think hes as good as some on here make out
st albans fox Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 Perhaps a lot of agents want things like release clauses in contracts and they know we won’t entertain them

Oh dear, no chance of them wanting Vesty back then
Steve Earle Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 This has been the most baffling window for us I can remember. The silence from Top and Susan is deafening and whatever you feel about Rodgers and his future here. he's been badly let down by the club. In time I guess we'll find out why. But I've said it before and got pelters for it, we as a club are shockingly bad communicators. Strap in for a relegations battle and the loss of more players in January! 2

You can’t lose a chunk of targets on principle. Either keep the no release clause policy or pay them more.

Bit too early to judge, it is usually best to judge a window after at least a year. I was pretty pleased with ours last year but we were 0 for 5 in reality.
Tuna Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 We've got their head of recruitment signed up so I guess it bodes well for LCFC?

Silebyfox_89 Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 Scummers clearing out Glovers little black book as he finishes then.

21st Century Fox Posted 1 September 2022 Posted 1 September 2022 Are these actually Glover's recommendations?! Surely he's on gardening leave. They've just got Man City's Head of Academy and Recruitment and they've signed a load of Man City academy players. Why would a new Head of Recruitment want to sign all his predecessors targets, it doesn't exactly boost his reputation.

Most of the time when players sign, they have been longer term targets. eg we have been tracking Faes for a while.
