    With Speakman and Dodds here I’m confident he’ll be convinced that here is a best place for him.

    “Jude Bellingham’s brother Jobe has travelled to the Stadium of Light ahead of a potential move to Sunderland.

    Jobe, 17, is the younger brother of Jude, the Borussia Dortmund midfielder who is one of the most coveted players in Europe. Jobe currently plays for Birmingham Cityin the Championship but is on the cusp of a summer move to Sunderland.”

    Honestly, that would be a potential big statement. There's plenty of clubs sniffing around him, he's got all the makings of a potential star.

    Whilst I hope he comes and apparently there's a lot of clubs after him, I just hope it's not a case of him instead of michut. I think michut is going to be a hell of a player. Imagine having Neil, Ekwah, Michut and Bellingham to choose from. Unbelievable really the recruitment and investment in youth

    Can we add Henderson and Evans to that. It would be the best midfield we’d have had in decades.

    Only seen what I've seen when he played against us. Looked pretty good at their place before tiring, and IRRC, came on late up here.

    But, if others are looking too he must be a good lad, and if he was there last night he must want to play in front of that.

    It's worth pointing out that the lad is just 17. He's closer in age to Chris Rigg and Tommy Watson than he is to Michut and Ekwah.

    To have played 22 times at Championship level at his age is a remarkable achievement in itself. Even if he didn't stand out, the fact that he doesn't look out of place either shows the potential this kid has.

    It would be an exciting signing, but I wouldn't be expecting a match winner next season. He's not his brother (which is not a criticism).

    He was definitely there there’s a video goi g around of him on pitch after the game.

    I’ll try find that but think was on Tik-Tok so could be anywhere.

    Seen a social post with a load of Brum fans saying ‘he’d never go there’ few days ago, stunned me that they seem to think they are par or bigger than us. Really? Ha.

    He isn’t Jude 2.0 but Phil Neville had a great career. I’m sure there’s a better example. Jacky v Bobby Charlton?

    Thorgan Hazard?

    It's probably not that Birmingham are comparing themselves to us, but more likely that they've seen him linked with Liverpool etc. and we seem a very sideways step in comparison.

    I didnt realise he was so tall. This could be a major coup if we manage to get him in. I wonder if our interest in keeping Michut drops if we do?

    Forget the name attached to him. I’d be excited signing anyone who has as much Match time and talent as he has at such a young age.

    I’d be buzzing with this but I also know the Bellingham family are close friends with Dodds. Weren’t Jude and Jobe at our play off games, last season?

    Thorgen>Eden has nailed it.

    Thorgen has had a great career and gone for massive fees himself, never quite a prime Eden.

    Thorgen Bellingham would be a great signing. Ha.
