    1 striker who hasn't even played for us yet.

    To be fair, we should have had contingencies in place based on the fact that Stewart has already missed a significant portion of the season. I’m a big fan of Speakman and he’s signed good players, but taking us into the back half of the season with one striker who we have on loan and is untested in a Sunderland shirt is poor planning.

    Agree 100%, and it's also completely different from the Kaboul situation years ago when the lad was allowed to go for personal reason and he was the absolute linchpin of our defence.

    I know - he's got a shocking goalscoring record as well.................. I've heard it all recently

    The recruitment team we have is class and they will be doing everything to ensure we make the right signings

    Do you think there are a swathe of players ready to jump at the chance to play for us at a moment's notice?

    If I was an Everton fan I'd rather keep Simms

    Looking at some of these posts, anyone might think we’re struggling to survive!
    We’re far from it and playing marvellous football, if we don’t get anyone in, let’s just keep faith with our players and let them enjoy their games, I’m certainly enjoying being a Sunderland fan more than I can remember.

    Surely they aren't gonna sanction Simms to go and sign Ayew?

    I think he'll be a great signing for them. Don't worry Ellis I'm on my way - just need to get some diesel first!

    Hundreds of players move on deadline day alone, never mind the full window which we’ve had, so this is a bit of a strange comment.
