Mexal Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Starting to feel left out that we haven't bought a Southampton player Ornstein just tweeted that Tottenham is in talks with Southampton for Rodriguez and Schneiderlin. I'm going to be very upset if we miss out on Schneiderlin unless we bring in Carvalho instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Eric Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I can't remember such a massive exodus of players from a single club under normal circumstances. The fans must be gutted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Antony Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I remember Portsmouth selling like their entire team a few years back but don't recall the circumstances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Eric Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Portsmouth were close to dissolving as a club after 'Arry fucked them up with his spending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljkeane Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 The circumstances with Portsmouth were financial mismanagement on a massive scale. There was some talk that Southampton needed some money to come in but I'm doubtful they're in anything like the situation Portsmouth were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercenaryChef Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 this is insane! 11 out and only 2 in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Could be worse. Could be Blackpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexal Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 this is insane! 11 out and only 2 in! 5 of the starting XI with 2 more likely on their way out. Pretty crazy for a team that didn't really need that much money and were competing last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon AS Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 As Germany's U-19 is currently strolling into the Euro final (4-0 up against Austria at the moment; Werder's Davie Selke has scored six in the tournament so far, dare I hope this heralds good things for the first team? Probably not) the commentator mentioned that the senior side will be the first to wear the new jerseys with four stars. Which will happen in a friendly against Argentina. How fitting.

Raja Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Starting to feel left out that we haven't bought a Southampton player Apparently Soton and the management feel that any player who wants to leave should be sold. They'll surely get players in but it's been brutal for them so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I wonder what Koeman makes of all of this. Seems like blatant asset-stripping by the owner. When Katherine Liebharr took over from her father, I recall her saying that she doesn't even like football and I guess this player exodus proves it. Going to be a tough season for the Saints. ETA. wouldn't mind seeing Schneiderlin in a United jersey. Doesn't look like we've expressed an interest though and that is a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iskaral Pust Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Pity about Remy. And then of course 'onest 'Arry tries to talk back up the player's value. Liverpool need to sign another top quality striker.Polish - thanks for the correction on Schneiderlin. I thought I had read he was a recent buy, e.g. a year prior to Wanyama.Liverpool played here on Sunday evening but I did not go. I was expecting a team of mostly kids so soon after the WC, and my wife and son wouldn't enjoy the game enough. There were quite a few Liverpool shirts around the city but no scouse accents that I heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercenaryChef Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 in amazing football news i just secured tickets to see newcastle at home to crystal palace! this is going to be amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Have fun Chef. Nothing quite beats the first game one catches at the stadium ( if indeed it is your first game), hope you got good tickets. In other news, it seems West Ham will likely sign Jenkinson on loan. Though the folks are arseblog report that he has to show that his game has improved or he will likely be sold off. Regular playing time *should* help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercenaryChef Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 We saw the toon a few years ago against mls side Columbus. The toon army was well represented. This will be our first trip to England. The tickets are pretty solid...upper level mid pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I'd imagine the atmosphere will be a new experience. Though yes, those are good tickets. Makes me wish I was going to a few games later this year, but college gets in the way of that. Arsenal have also recruited new fitness coach, Shad Forsythe, he's been with Germany for the last decade and has joined up with the club recently. I suppose the club have looked into the injury concerns with the squad. Hopefully he makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexal Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Awesome news MC. I had tickets for Arsenal in a similar spot and the view was excellent. Arsenal have also recruited new fitness coach, Shad Forsythe, he's been with Germany for the last decade and has joined up with the club recently. I suppose the club have looked into the injury concerns with the squad. Hopefully he makes a difference. This is going to be huge. He's well respected and uses sports science to track fitness/rehab. I think that'll be a big part of knowing when players are at a point where they cannot train/play and are properly rotated to keep them fit. Probably our most important signing this year.

Grand Moff Mithrandir Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 Happened to stumble upon this gem in the comments section over on Daily MailHappy Tuesday everyone, just to remind you that Man U will NOT be in the Champions League this season. Have a nice day.Also, since Remy conspired to fail his medical we now find ourselves back on square one in our search for a striker to support Dan Sturridge. I honestly don't know who we could go for at this point, that is a quality striker who will not act as if Liverpool is not good enough for them.
