Comment | Reed Says Squad Needs One More ! But There Is Room For More At The Right Price !

Saying Austin and Ings are proven premier league quality after 1 season is stretching it. Don't get me wrong I would love to get Austin but he's not proven and this level....yet. Reed has still said we are in the market for the right quality players if the market is right. We have completed, bar CB, all the key signings Koeman wanted. Koeman is seeing these players in training maybe he feels the likes of Turnbull, Mccarthy and Stephens are ready for the first team, Sam Gallagher is back from injury and was being raved about. Koeman has a history of bringing through young players into the first team when there ready. And the Europa league can do just that. Look at Harry Kane wasn't playing in the premier league at the beginning of the season but forced his way in with some good performances in the Europa league.
Our situation now is completely different to when we were relegated as we have the chance to bring the youth players in gradually rather than having to play them as we had nobody else!! |

I'm not sure I agree with the comment about the club being dishonest. How do you measure that our squad/ team is stronger? Surely the best way to measure is by league performance? Total points etc? Last season despite a large number of expensive sales and cheaper (dare I say better or more realistically valued) replacements we finished in out highest premier league finish with a record points total. OK we may not be reinvesting all the money into the first team but we have also invested in a world class training facility that will help to attract the best youth players and enable the production line to continue. I'm really excited about the coming season and seeing more youth players being integrated into the first team. I would rather this than the big money flops Ramirez and Osvaldo we were all excited about a few years ago. Saints have always been about the team so signing young hungry players who will integrate with the current team is an excellent strategy. Fingers crossed we get the new CB in asap to allow time in preseason to get used to playing with Font and we can look forward to another great season. COYR! |
