237 Quotes by Graeme Souness

We have had a week where we have tried to sign a couple of quality players and it has not happened but we have still a bit of time left in the transfer window,

We had our chances but didn't take them. We don't have enough goal-getters in our team,

We are not going to risk Michael for the game at Grimsby but we fully expect him to be back in action for the league game at West Bromwich Albion on Sunday,

To say I am suicidal about the current state of affairs is not far off the mark,

We have shown an interest in him; we have made an inquiry. He has the most incredible scoring record in Dutch football. Many people have described him as a young Alan Shearer, but whether that's true or not I don't know.

When you have got a name like that, it's a massive burden to carry around with you, but I am told he is a good player, so we'll have to wait and see.

We've got the international break coming up, though, so hopefully all but Luque will be ready after that. I'll look forward to that because as a manager you want to have tough decisions to make. The team has been picking itself this season but with a fully fit squad then I'll be confident we can push up the table and get to an area in the table where we want to be.

We know all about Michael's situation - he is a target. But we also have other targets,

We're hoping we can get him through to November. We have the international break coming up, and that is two weeks, so there is a window there which would be a possibility. Given his track record, and given the way he plays football, I would imagine he would be out for about three weeks.
