    I can see it happening but I can also see this leak being used to hurry Sheff Wed up.

    Speakman and co will be deservedly shot with **** if we end up with no one again

    My point exactly. Showed no interest in will still etc despite how far along it was. Then mentioned RLB. So to me I reckon club are confident this gets done

    Of course it’s not easy I’ve been banging that drum for a while but there’s a reason we can never get one over the line

    Also of note scrolling down his feed. Can’t see the last time he reported on a transfer? Seems to me something has hit the press

    It’s madness but no surprise at all. Our striker situation has been a shambles for a long time now.

    It’s funny the same journalist get the leaks, I just hope it’s a positive one and not one to hurry Sheff Wed along.

    Said it before that there's a very fine line between waiting for the right option and allowing something to disrupt your season. I feel like we are right on the line now. Still time though.

    We wont be weighing up our options, we will have bids in for players but theres lots of factors involved in deals not coming off or taking ages to be done

    We would have had our list of targets in place for a while and we will be working our way through it

    no I reckon they are working hard but I also think the parameters they are deciding to work within are making it hard (price, age etc).

    not saying they shouldn’t have parameters but maybe they need to have a bit more flex in them than it seems they have from the outside looking in.

    Oh and I reckon speakman would say ‘cheeky’ nandos

    Hopefully it’s a Sunderland leak and not a Wednesday one

    but I’d say that tweet is a Sunderland focussed one.

    Not easy at all. Especially when you are only willing to spend 30bob

    quite possibly, or maybe we are using interest in ugbo to put a bit pressure on the mendy deal.

    transfer shenanigans will no doubt be going on

    Without a doubt. Someone is trying to get one done quickly whether it’s us pushing Ugbo out there so caen panic and give in

    or whether it’s us pushing ugbo and showing him interest

    something will happen very soon imo

    Nobody is spending without selling. We seem to have made the choice to keep our better players but remain in the lower priced market over selling big and having more money to spend.

    Mason Cotcher on the verge of going to Villa. Wild speculation of a £1m fee. What did we get for Okoronkwo again?

    There’s been about 15 strikers who’ve moved to championship clubs this summer already

    If we were to get Ugbo and Mendy for less than £5m total, but keep hold of Clarke, I'd be pretty pleased I must say.

    Mags in for Marc Guehi. Hope it doesn’t come off - would be a top signing

    Quality strikers was the question tbf. A lot of poor options, whom I’d be disappointed if we signed
