KaKa Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Seems more and more like we are the ones that really want him, and QPR are being morons and leaking fake interest from other clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I just don't know why Southampton would want him, having already got Pelle, Long, Rodriguez and Juanmi. That's all I'm pinning my hopes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggs Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 reckon chelski would have him now if they wanted him unless they are waiting for another target Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC_Chris Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I honestly can't see why Chelsea would want him either tbh, unless they're buying up English players to boost their 'home grown' quota. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I think I heard he lives in Wiltshire so Southampton would be the obvious choice for him if they are interested. If we do get him, it will be because no-one else wants him. I'm not sure I want him either. If he and his WAG are more interested in living down south then they sound like a pair of cunts anyway.

Juanmi is a wide player like Rodriguez is he not? They can play there, but they also have Tadic and Mane out wide, Ward-Prowse can too. Was Elia just on loan?

Guess they want a more like for like replacement for Pelle when he stops scoring. That, and squads being useful to have these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The sound ran a story yesterday about how Pardew was after him. Anyway the headline ran "Al's Aust cause". I find it a pretty sick joke for a newspaper. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/6510156/Als-Aust-cause.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 If it wasn't us and I wasn't totally convinced by our incompetence, I'd think QPR are trying to create a bidding war. Who's been linked? Us, Palace, Liverpool, Southampton, West ham, Chelsea, Bournemouth. I've probably missed half a dozen too. The only ones with clear interest are us. Either Austin is whoring himself around or QPR are trying to pressure us into a big bid. I suspect an unnamed club will come in an make us look like mugs. Everton sounds about right. They don't piss about and put actual bids in. If that doesn't happen, QPR will have to accept our 20 pence offer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 QPR are definitely trying to create false interest from all over. No question. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Taking about area, this bloke used to play for Burnley FFS. This is just boring, sign for Southampton and be done with it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho Time Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I wouldn't mind if Southampton signed him in one sense. That then gives them Pelle, Juanmi, Long and Rodriguez (also Dani Osvaldo who will most likely leave) but if it was true and they signed Austin it's a possibility Shane Long could be let go and getting him for about £8m could be a sweet deal.

Teasy Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Not a chance would we go for Long for £8m, to be honest I don't think he's worth that either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Every time I watch Long I feel like he looks really good, and should produce more than he does. He never seems to be trusted with consistent appearances upfront as the main man though. Strange one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 @SimonPeach I am told #SaintsFC are not interested in signing Charlie Austin from #QPR. Koeman is not actively looking for a striker right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I'm quite surprised at that mind, not the Austin bit so much but that they are not looking for striker. Thought it might be the no 1 thing they look for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The more sides that say they aren't interested, the more you have to question the source of these rumours. Surely we must be clear front runners now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Any normal club in this situation would be, yes. But that's not how we roll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
