Seems like Sandro is off 
I find it funny how some people see players as so one dimensional: We already have a player in that position who his good so why would we get another in that position. Football teams don't work like that, there are many facets to most players, strengths and weaknesses that impact whether a player fits with the others around him, with the club, the manager, etc. not just his overal FIFA or FM rating.
I rate Sandro, and Paulinho and Dembelle, and the other central midfielders we have too, but Schnederlin offers different things and perhaps that all fits better with where we need to be this coming season as a team.

Schneiderlin is far better than Sandro. The latter is put on a ridiculous pedestal by Spurs fans, he is nowhere near as good as a lot of us think he is. Schneiderlin can tackle just as well as Sandro, his distribution and ball retention is far superior and he is much more likely to create a chance than "Beast" (cringe). He would be a superb signing for anything between £12 million and £20 million.
Exactly. Why they're being choads to this guy over any of the others, especially Lovren, makes absolutely no sense. Very unfair of them to permit so many to depart, and then close the gate right as one of their most loyal players for years was on the verge of leaving. I do wish he wouldn't have done the tweet, but I do feel his anger is certainly justified.

OOOpsI hope they do sign him.
He's exactly what they need, another central midfielder that can't score and assist.
Then sell them for a profit.
That is it. Everyone is loyal until the bigger teams with more money come calling.
Dawson doesn't get that though as he is shit.
Let's just tell Gibbsy that his name is really Schneiderlinho and then he won't be able to wait for him to come to Spurs.
I love the fact that Southampton are SUDDENLY playing keep ball with their players as soon as WE'RE interested in what's left of their squad!
They've sold every player right left and centre since the Summer began, but NOW they're deciding they're NOT a selling club after all...
So Spursy!!
Only WE could hire a Prostitute the day she decides to become a Nun!

Overrated and overpriced. Couldn't agree more.
Have we signed this Wesley Schneiderlin fellow yet?
What I find strange about Southamptons decision to single out Schneiderlin, is that they are making life difficult for one of their most loyal players. He's been with them through several promotions and now he has the chance for a bigger move. I understand his outrage, especially since the club's long term plans seem to have changed drastically when Cortese left.

I swear to god I didn't plagiarize you in the other thread. But thank you for your detail, and yes this is spot on. Really interesting history about this region.
This is Johnathan Schmid, a winger for SC Freiburg from the same region. If he looks even remotely French to anyone, my guess is this is the first day you ever found a computer:
He looks like he gets off on shitting on women. Yup, very Germanic.
I see no problem with trying to get players that Pochettino knows, trusts and wants to continue working with.
