We need a quick fix up front until the end of the season rather than try and get a long term solution in this window. Prices are inflated plus there just aren't the long term solutions available.

I'd rather we go for a 30+ year old striker with a proven record who can put some of the chances we are making away.
We've got pace in and around the box already so a decent target man with experience is what we are after.

Leonardo Ulloa?

Trying to think of other players in this bracket that would be let go on loan mid-season. It's Tough!

{Ed002's Note - Sevilla and Swansea are both keen on him.}

Anthony Modeste 28 years: Fc Köln.

Ibisevic 32 years: Hertha Berlin

Okazaki 30 years: Liecester


The two first are tanks and Okazaki is well known. Not sure they are saints material but they would most likley go here for some big wages and not too hefty transfer sum.

There are more but the quality is falling as you look further into what's around.

It would be a non-Saint transfer if any of them were to join as they are not avalible on the market to my knowledge and they are also not in a developing phase.

They are just a few examples of what is out there.

Unsure about Okazakis playtime this year, but perhaps Leicester want room for a better striker and will let him go?

Dzecko perhaps on loan so as to subsidize his wages

Okazki would be a great shout but he is probably too crucial to Leicester unless they buy another striker. Ulloa too, but with interest elsewhere he will cost more than he's really worth. we should buy chicarito for 25 million

Pretty sure we tried to buy Hernandez before he went to Germany and he didn't think we were a big enough club and turned us down.

Drogba on a free?!

Does any one else think that we should go for fernando Llorente of Swansea? now that it looks like Chelsea don't have any more interest in him with costa looking to be staying put. Personally think he's class player and would fit straight in

I'm not sure what happened with Sebastian Haller but it was reported that he was a target, at one point. He's scored 10 goals and assisted 5 times this season and is only 22 years old.

As for a Fonte replacement Martin Caceres is still without a contract, I could see him at Southampton for a few seasons, but it'd be unlikely.
Do the eds know of transfer news related to these two players?

Dos Bast was keen to come here before his move to Sporting CP in Portugal where he has scored 11 goals in 13 games so far. At 6' 5" he might be a good Pelle replacement.

robbie keane would do a good job for the season.

SaintSmithy. you beat me to it. Robbie Keane finds the net, always has! A Quick fix?

What about Jordan Rhodes? Available for about £10 m always scored goals and never been given a chance in the prem, we'd also almost certainly get our money back if it didn't work out
