Southampton After Knockaert?

[warmleyseagull]

It wasn't a throwaway comment though, was it.......it was an enquiry about whether he'd heard the rumour, and from the Stains' fan's point of view, a query about how he rated Knocky.



You have a mate?

Yup plenty. You have a view, I have a view shared by several on this thread. Let's leave it at that.

Everyone has their price...

That's true

However, Newcastle would have met it last year but the player himself would also need to be open to offers and AK made it clear that he himself WAS NOT open to offers.

 

[Rod Marsh]

Yes he does. If someone comes in with a silly bid then why not sell.

If we take off the blue and white tinted specs for a minute, he is unproven in the top flight and was not totally consistent in the Championship.

I don't want to see him go but every player has his price and you have to remember that he is not even an international winger. The recruitment team will have a list of replacements as a contingency if needed.

I think if any player was consistent it was him. You don't score that many goals as a winger and win championship player of the season not being consistent.

You are right though, every player has a price.

I can't see Knockaert going now or for a while - unless it was to a top-five club, or PSG. He has a real bond with Brighton. That doesn't mean unbreakable, relegation would threaten it, but he he's not leaving for the likes of Southampton. United/Arsenal/Spurs maybe, but I don't think that's likely, those clubs want players proven at top level.

Southampton don't buy good players, they only sell them!

An extra £20k a week might be tempting though......

Next summer will be the acid test. If we go down then you have to think he'll want premier league football. If we stay up and he looks decent the bigger clubs might just come calling.

 

[Langley]

Maidstone interested too apparently

I also have it on good authority that Burgess Hill want to loan him for the season.
And you can rest assured that that came from a staff member. I think her name is Lilly.

 

[Stat Brother]

Should have solid him when we had the chance.

 

[skipper734]

Crocked now. Worth nothing.

 

[wigman]

I reckon Arry at Brum will turn his head.
3 year deal on 120k a week will do the trick.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Sell him quick.. he is injured
