Che Adams £11.2m

[Bristol Blade]

Kerrr-ching! What a Monday this is turning out to be!

Anyone know what Southampton's previous record transfer purchase was?

I read it as being a record sale for Birmingham, rather than a record purchase for Southampton.

So bad it’s almost funny.

For the love of MOAR!!!!

The wheels don't even move for fucks sake, I've only been using After Effects (likely the program used) for a week but I could do better than that shite and I bet the person/company who made that got a reyt wedge.

 

[Tom Bott]

Wedge or wedgie.

In that case prepare the Bladeacoaster, let’s see what it looks like!?

I'll get it ready for our first signing.

How exciting. We wait with baited breath....

How could Che Adams ever be considered a marquee signing? he's a decent Championship striker, not worth any more wages than the rest of our squad of good Championship players.

He's a great championship player , same as Billy , premiership is a different matter, I'd go after Dwight Gayle and keep Madine

Granted they’re different types of forward but if Madine is a PL player then Adams is Maradonna.

 

[Kev Gee]

How much do we get from the sell on clause?

 

[Dkc]

He wasn't an academy product, we got him from Ilkeston, not sure if that makes a difference

 

[dynamoblade]

Looking at who we've signed since this thread began, who is thanking Christ that this cauliflower eared ego wasnt our 'marquee signing'?

[Wards]

Scored fewer than McBurnie...

 

[Woodwardfan]

I wouldnt be averse to picking him up for £3m this January.

I wouldnt be averse to picking him up for £3m this January.

The first thing Wilder did when he joined the club was to sell him.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I really rate Che Adams as a player personally. I still think he has the tools, & age on his side, to push for an England spot one day. It's way too premature to say, but if there's an opportunity at the end of the season I'd like to see us go for him. He'd bring much more than I've seen so far from Robinson & their roles are very similar.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

He's looked well off the pace this season, which really surprises. Hasn't looked threatening at all.

 

[hidesbehindapseudonym]

Glad we got shot to be fair. Always a bit hot and cold and often slow and fat

 

[true99blade]

Misconception that Wilder was the one who wanted the transfer to happen.

 

[sufcboy95]

He’s still a quality player and when we paid £20m for Mcburnie, £11m for him is a snip

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Bumping this as he's one I'd still love for us to go in for. He'd provide great competition up front.

 

[BladeTillIDie]

Naaaa were onto better things.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

McBurnie 502 mins of action 2 goals (should be 3), hounded by the large majority of fans.
Che Adams 470 mins, 0 goals.

Pre-season I'd have taken him gladly, however not now.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Agree, he's not started life well with Southampton. But he's as close to a Mousset as you're going to get. Fast, powerful, direct, decent feet. He was excellent against us at the Lane. He's a good age & will develop more as a player.

Both good players can’t really judge either on starting a handful of games Adams is a quality player and so is mcburnie.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

We aren't going to spend 20m+ on another striker unless we get rid of one (and it won't be McG or Sharp as they wouldn't recoup anything).

In The summer I would have snapped your hand off at the thought of Adams over mousset.

Hard to judge him so far But that’s forgetting that wilder has seen che close at hands and let him go without too much of a fight.

Having seen both it’s obvious Lys is a far superior player.

 

[Ricky]

I'd take him but I think he's on about 60k p/w at Southampton.
