Confirmed Signing Cuco Martina

[Khalekan]

I don't think he's the only Southampton fan who thinks or has said he's crap mate.

If he's going to play as little as everyone says he is, what actually is the point in signing him?

Simple logic, Mike.

And a simple truth

Kenny with any luck.

I admire your optimism but history (Davies being the recent exception) doesn't fill me with hope.

We've played more teenagers this season than any other Prem club and given more minutes to teenagers than any other prem club by 600 minutes total.

I dunno mate. I kind of get the feeling if these kids are good enough then they'll get in. But there's a big difference playing in the u23 league to top flight proper footie.

It's unlikely all the kids from the title winning team will make it with us. Even though they won. That's just football sadly.

Still, I wouldn't sign Martina. But Koeman knows him, clearly likes him so you just have to trust and hope for the best.

Off the internet now please Neil

You do realise the window has barely opened and you're convincing yourself that a player that some obscure website has linked us with will be our No.1 RB already?

If he signs (and I agree that is far from certain) he will play, otherwise what's the point in signing a 27 year old. If the plan is for him to be backup only then why not stick with Kenny and Holgate?

When you sign a 27 year old, you plan on playing him and if not then why sign him?

The window hasn't barely opened, it's over a month away from doing so.

Not just an obscure website, both Joyce and Hunter have reported we want him, so as good as done.

What the hell is a Curaçao anyway?!

Another possibility is if Stek does leave, that Koeman wants another in who he's worked at mulltiple clubs with before. *cough...spy...cough*

That. That's what worries me, we clearly have plans to play him semi-regularly at least. After shifting so many turds out already I'm against the idea of adding more.
