to be fair to styles he's player over 100 games in the championship and was loved by barnsley and millwall aswell
Whether people agree with the strategy or not is irrelevant - we have one and we're sticking to it. Speakman and KLD are playing long term games. Loads of Sunderland fans seem to have a "weekend millionaire" attitude. If we go for a "proven" striker who doesn't do great and we're in this league again, there will be plenty just asking for another striker again. No thought to squad building, no thought to development, no thought to financial security. All things considered, this transfer window is one of our least important in a long time in my opinion.
Conversion rate is the whole team tho not just strikers, look at the goal scoring charts in the championship this season n think theres only 2 out n out strikers in the top 10. Wingers seem to be the main threats these days The names you mentioned as signings are hardly goal scorers, Gallagher has scored in double figures once n that was yrs ago. Connolly wasnt a proven striker before this yr, hes having his best season so far (8 goals). Shankland is playing in a shocking league so hard to tell how he would adapt the pace n quality of the championship. Moore better, had 3 or 4 really good yrs n would have been a handful but sounds like his wages are massive
another year and still no striker signed, this will be the end for these owners will they ever learn ? should have took a chance on the Preston striker or Langstaff, so Rigg needs to be our choice striker then.
Exactly, Monts. It was better before KLD and Speakman turned up with their model and sustainability nonsense, and we were in League 1! Oh, hang on...
Who do they bring in? Everybody is looking for a striker lol We are about spending wisely, not spending on any ****er like we did under Quinn, Short and Madrox.
Happens to every club unfortunately. Always liked the look of this lad n ashame he didnt want to stay here but weve still got some cracking talent in the youth set up Shame he left tho
Bob give over man! You weren’t complementing the club when Matty young signing his long term contract when loads of prem clubs wanted him, or rigg etc. you love sticking the boot in!
There again we bought a proven striker before, and it did not end well for Sir William Grigg. So stay with what we've got, or bring Benson the winger in and play him up front.
Well I think on Saturday I fell out with me m8 who’s in with them cos there was only there view none other existed
No I don't I'm happy if any of our young guns stay it means we are doing something right. It's when the parents and agents get involved the £ sign wins
Let's be honest, we have no idea if the lad will make it or not. We have kept plenty of young lads aswell, we will lose some that's football
