Summer window

I know mate but i think he needs 3pm starts instead of being on a bench to take him to the next level. I cant see him doing that for us anytime soon.

 

He’s too busy cruising down the street in his 6.4 though.

 

I got the away kit that year and remember me old mam going mad cos she had to sew the badge on for me

 

We do need a cm with experience in the mould of Evans. I don’t think he’ll play more than a handful of games for us and Michut has gone. Although a few could play there only really Ekwah and Neil that are conventional CM’s other than Evans. Pritchard, Ba and probably Bellingham more advanced/no 10’s.

 

Made me sing "rollin, in my 5.0" outloud that did, badly

 

I am with you mate. We are going to need a seriously good experienced CM to replace either of those. I reckon evans is a sub at best now. I think we have seen the future in those 2, and Neil clearly has stepped into a more senior role on the pitch. Wouldnt be keen on some 28 year old coming in and stalling their progress at all.

 

"The current rumor is that David Martinez of Club Deportivo Monagas has been noticed by scouts from England's Sunderland AFC. The seventeen year old has burst onto the world scene playing on the right flank or attacking midfield CRACK!"

 

The capitalised CRACK! convinced me he's a player. In the past this would be nothing more than a fun rumour but nowadays we're sending our scouts far and wide and some obscure Venezuelan teenager might well be on the cards.

Left-footed. Mainly plays right wing but can also play left wing and as a second striker.

Canny start to the season (in whatever the hell those competitions are):

 

Libertadores is the champions league of South America. I guess Liga FUTVE must be the name of the Venezuelan league?

 

Leicester poster on here saying they’re heavily linked with Chair. He wouldn’t get his game at Sunderland. They’re welcome to him.

 

Nectar and Jobe already in.

Semedo possibly on his way.

What else do we need? Thankfully I don't think we need large numbers. Definitely another striker and winger.

 

Experienced CM for me in case things get sticky. I think we should basically pretend Evans doesn't exist in terms of recruitment, he might not be back for ages.

 

I'd add a number 10 to that.

 

Here's a link to a lad who knows his stuff on South American talent. Quite interesting read and a few we've now been linked with

 

A Ten, an upgrade on evans, another striker option and a better back up to Patto is all we need for me (provided we lose none of our better players)

 

This but 2 strikers please

 

One plus semedo I was meaning haha be criminal to go into another season without 3 strikers

 

We need an experienced goalkeeper that will push patto, an experienced CDM and 3 strikers one of which can play anywhere across a front 3 imo.
