It is £1m less than a shite Irish striker that we bought. That turned out alright.

Looks like it is on for Redmond.
Sorry CB, missed this yday.
He looks like a bargain now. Ah, the meltdown when he signed. Good times.
Only £8 million now.
This is quite some decline given that he’s still only 31. Then again, 1 goal in 31 matches for Crawley suggests his best days are behind him.

Like the sound of Arnautovic + Redmond if we get Rudi Garcia #saintsfc

Chris reaches the conclusion that Mane will leave if someone offers enough, oh, and he also ends the article with the word “asshat”.
Which is only to be expected of a loyal member of the Dubai Saints Krew
that’ll be Duncan Norvelle then.
Wanyama off to Spurs by the looks of it.
Yep £11 million. Seems cheap!
It does seem cheap.
I’d have gone for £11m and Daniel Levy must wear a hat with ‘Twat’ written on it for both Saints fixtures against them.

We all know Big Vic is famine and feast. Eleven mil doesn’t sound like that much, but that’s what happens when you let contracts run down. We had an occasionally amazing player for a time. I wonder whether he’ll cope with the pressure at Spurs. They’re a Champions League team, and while Vic has done the biz at that level, I’d argue it’s easier to sparkle in a Celtic side not expected to win than a Spurs side which everyone is running the rule over.
True papster, but he leaves us a much better player than the one that arrived from Celtic.
His touch was horrific in his first 3-4 matches for us…

His disciplinary record was record equalling in his last season, and not in a good way. Bit of a loose cannon. Totally appreciate his “A Game”. We didn’t get to see it for various reasons, lack of discipline and self control being two of them.

I reckon that Oriol has got some red cards in him as well.
