Big, big gamble this. He’s not proven by any means & red flags with injuries. I think Southampton have probably done us a favour in the long run…

He will score goals but I thought this window we were putting that kind of deal behind us. Not all of our transfers will work but so far in Vidigal and Burger I think we have 2 gems for half of what they want for him.

If Demba Ba had signed and his knee blown up the club would've been slated but we know what he went on to do but hindsight is a great thing.

We go all in and sign him for silly money and he breaks down 5 minutes into his debut never to be seen again. We don't take the risk and walk away and he bags 30 goals and propels Southampton back to the promised land. Fortunately this time the price tag is taking the decision out of our hands.

I don't think for one second Stewart won't recover from his injury in time.
But even without the injury the figure Southampton are paying is way over the top.
They could get him for peanuts in January. Or free in the summer.
I find it hard to believe they couldn't get a better player for that price.

If he’s failed a medical do you think we’re even going to pay £5m for him let alone £8-10m?

I'd change our offer to £2million now. Even if we didn't want him, just to piss them off.
I'd send that email/fax giggling like a little schoolgirl.
