    I didnt realise Blackpool had him. Its no wonder they got promoted with him, Embleton, Simms, Yates and Garbutt in their team.
    It makes our team back then look bang average.

    'We wish Daniel all the best for his future with Sunderland, he will always be a valued part of the Arsenal family.'

    We're recruiting from Man City, Spurs, Arsenal, etc.

    This is something we didn't often manage in the PL.

    KLD is making massive changes to the core of this club.

    Cannot recollect seeing him play, but age size and experience augurs well.

    James Young has been a very good appointment too and worth his salary.

    from Mark Douglas

    Fabio Borini keen on Sunderland return
    Former Sunderland striker Fabio Borini is interested in a surprise Black Cats return, i understands.

    Borini, who can play anywhere across the front three, is currently with Turkish Super Lig club Fatih Karagumuruk and scored three times in 21 appearances last season. But the 31-year-old is keen to return to England and the player has been offered to Sunderland as they look to add to their squad ahead of their return to the Championship next season.

    Borini played close to 100 games on Wearside across a loan spell which was converted to a permanent move in 2015. He returned to Milan in 2017 after Sunderland’s relegation but has always retained an affection for the club and any move would add experience and know-how to a relatively young Sunderland side.

    Sunderland have favoured youth in their recruitment drive and it remains to be seen how far – if at all – the move goes. Last season’s reunion with Jermaine Defoe was disastrous but Borini has been playing regularly and at 31 still believes he has many good years ahead of him.

    Alex Neil has funds available to strengthen after Sunderland’s much-needed promotion via the play-offs.

    The Black Cats have agreed a deal with Arsenal for promising defender Daniel Ballard, who spent last season on loan at Millwall. He can play either as a centre-back or defensive midfielder.

    Neymar to Newcastle move a non-starter, Brentford make £16m Lewis-Potter bid, Borini keen on Sunderland return (inews.co.uk)

    pure fantasy surely

    Over the moon with Ballard, shows our intent for me. A couple more of that ilk and we have real cause to be optimistic!

    Looks a cracking acquisition. Missed the announcement, been in Alton Towers with the kids all day. A nice bit of news to round off the day.

    Over the moon with this. Really sets the tone for what will hopefully be the best summer we’ve had in years. Not to get ahead of myself or anything…
