Nathan Tella

[jedi_master]

If he’s not coming here (and I doubt he is now personally) then all you can do is wish him all the best. Hope he gets them up so that he can get a crack at this league, like he has already earned.

[Boss Hogg]

Think we’ve probably moved onto other targets but it does make that twitter post seem very strange and unprofessional if so. Makes you wonder what they were asking when we’ve signed other players for vast sums who are unproven at PL level. Be interesting to see how he gets on.

[dermotdermot]

He doesn't look happy. He's coming home.

[Longsider]

Could be a good January signing

[randomclaret2]

[jedi_master]

And that right there is why we should have bought him.

[DCWat]

Didn’t take long

[CryerBFC]

[Herts Clarets]

Just done a Benson

[4midable]

What a goal

[Quickenthetempo]

They're singing our song.

[Guller Bull]

Nathan - what have you done !!!

[DAVETHEVICAR]

Great finish

[RVclaret]

And that right there is why we should have bought him.

A deflected goal against a team likely relegated from the Championship is why we should spend 20 million British pounds?

Thats why we will

[PenfoldClaret]

Just got more expensive!

[jos]

His price is rising minute by minute

[Clovius Boofus]

I'm now in 'this bird has flown' camp.

[jrgbfc]

Tella is smiling, won't impress those who think he's crying himself to sleep every night because he can't sign for us.

[alwaysaclaret]

Bensonesque

[ksrclaret]

Anyone heard from GetIntoEm?

Tella was supposed to be with us for the Mainz game according to him, after saying he was due for a medical at the end of last week

[Walkerpool]

Still can't understand why we didn't buy him but on the upside I'm in the money.

[Conroysleftfoot]

looks pretty happy to me. Wish he was here, but hope he does really well whereever he plays.

[Casper2]

Didn’t someone post the deal was already done

[jedi_master]

A deflected goal against a team likely relegated from the Championship is why we should spend 20 million British pounds?

£15m isn’t it?

It’s what he did last season and the fact he’s bagged (however you wish to term the goal) within 10 again, not specifically ‘that’ moment. Not sure how anyone who went to Turf Moor last season could question why we wouldn’t want him!

[claretburns]

According to Southampton fans online that goal has just made it 30 million British pounds to sign him, nothing like fans exaggerating.

[CoolClaret]

Are we gonna get this everytime he may or may not score this season?

[kentonclaret]

Nathan Tella will be scoring goals again this season in the Championship for Southampton. Tella didn’t look too unhappy with life after he scored embracing his manager and celebrating with his teammates.

[arise_sir_charge]

It’s not even his goal!

[jedi_master]

Are we gonna get this everytime he may or may not score this season?

I hope not because it would be a long thread.

The minute the window slams it all needs to cease. It should already because there’s no way he’s coming here by the looks. That big hug of Martin when he scored shows he’s up for it with them and knuckled down IMO. You can only be happy for him and hope we’ve got better alternatives coming.

[FCBurnley]

He is young and and very good. Another good season in the Champs and his value will just keep rising. Think we will need to look elsewhere now

Yeah,

I only see him coming if Southampton aren’t in contention in January or fail to get promotion - but we will probably be far passed that and other targets.

It’s over guys. He was great for us but it just wasn’t meant to be

[Hedontplayforyou]

Perhaps he’s just a good professional? He’s playing for the club that pays his wages and who have done since a young age . Showcasing why we should indeed sign him up

[AlargeClaret]

I think it’s more the fact he was instrumental in our promotion , top scorer and a class above the champ . Would have thought the board could have coughed up 15m as opposed to shipping in assorted unproven low end euro “ maybes” which increases the squad rebuilding but at a much higher level .

[dandeclaret]

What a goal

Reckon it will get given to Adam Armstrong....

[Spiral]

Think the Daramy bid and Odobert deal over the last few days is all the evidence we need that we've moved on past trying to bring Tella back. That free Tella video was seriously idiotic.

Tella is a completely unproven maybe according to your logic then?

[Blyclaret]

Ye he’s definitely coming to us

[elwaclaret]

Several of that Southampton team will have left in the next month, possibly Tella amongst them.

I certainly wouldn’t be getting giddy as a Saint until September at the earliest.

[Gp8419]

Great assist by tella

[4midable]

Its changed on 365 already to armstrong
I have him in another tho

Aye, and if they want to play at a higher level, they will play out of their skins.

[BurnleyFC]

Yes, he’s not coming now which makes the actions of our chairman’s daughter a bit weird.

[CoolClaret]

Beyond weird and rightly scrutinised bar the serial happy clappers that can see people affiliated to the club do no wrong.

They even mentioned it on the Beehole end podcast that a few that worked in PR were asked about it and said it’s basically a non starter. Stupid and unnecessary.

[Clovius Boofus]

I thought we'd done the video thing to death.

[123EasyasBFC]

Literally Armstrongs goal, if Armstrong doesn’t touch it keeper is saving it

[boatshed bill]

That video hasn't altered the fact that Tella was never coming back to Burnley.

[4midable]

That was the other

[Robbie_painter]

Think we should all just move on now.No guarantee he’d do it in the prem anyway.

[jos]

Lots of people stating their version of fact, when actually have no clue as to what’s going on behind the scenes.
