January Transfer Window Rumours

[Pure River Slut]

A dominant centre back with leadership qualities who has played most of his career above this level AND has experience of getting out of this division.

What is this witchcraft ?

And we’ve made space for a loan by signing him permanently

 

[Nads]

Great signing this. Done rapid as well. Love to see it.

 

[Dorset]

Where does this leave Arben?

He must be still struggling for match fitness. Understandable considering how long he was out.

 

[Oliver's Army]

Where does this leave Arben?

Probably cover for Doyle as the left side CB

He was at the driving range yesterday must be getting there.

Saying all the right things already

Danny Batth said: “I’m very happy that this deal is done because this is a juggernaut of a football club and I’m delighted to be a part of its journey. This is the perfect set-up for me. I’m really looking forward to playing in front of the home supporters and I’ve already spoken to the Head Coach, who has tried to sign me in the past. When the opportunity arose, I thought it would be the perfect option to crack on and do well.”

Interesting Johnson tried for him before. Good sign. All Johnson can ask is to be backed and this is the club doing that.

Got wind that we were going after an ambitious centre back previously. Think I put it on here that the centre situation would "change soon". Wanted to resolve alves who was a waste.

Can not say for certain if it's flint mind.

It wasn't flint

 

[Late goal Scorer]

Where does this leave Arben?

Currently competing with Doyle for LCB. Flanagan competing with Batth and Younger with Wright.

It’s a stellar signing in a position we desperately needed, done early. Great work.

 

[Essayyeffcee]

I hope he puts him straight in rather than getting him adjusted to the football philosophy at the club as Johnson has done with other new signings

 

[JammySAFC]

If you want to go up, I am a firm believer you need to sign players who have played in the division above. Pritchard has been great for us once he got up and running and I’m certain this lad will be too. Great signing

 

[Pure River Slut]

Currently competing with Doyle for LCB. Flanagan competing with Batth and Younger with Wright.

I’d get Younger out for some regular first team games now get him tested.

Football League World have deleted their article saying Roberts is going to Wigan instead of us.

Tells you more about the truth than the original article itself did...

Just what we need! I think Flan needs a rest, certainly not the player he had been earlier in the season.

Roberts, a big **** off CM and a striker (hopefully Defoe) and we’re laughing.

Looks a mean motherfucker....

Sounds like EXACTLY what we need from the RR interview.

Sounds like him and Doyle might be a lovely ‘Pound Shop Vidic & Ferdinand’

 

[Nacho]

"RR: Finally, for Sunderland fans that are unsure on this signing, what would you say to them?

Mark: If you see Batth from the outset as a no-nonsense centre-back who’ll help you keep clean sheets, you’ll be happy. Just don’t expect Beckenbauer."

That's exactly what we need, cut out a chunk of the daft goals we concede and we'll be flying. Beckenbauer can wait until next season

 

[Southern A]

I know its just twitter but its pretty refreshing to sign a player from the league above whose fans seem to either wish well knowing that his time is up, or some even wishing he'd stayed.
