Our squad is frustratingly close to being very decent. In my humble opinion a couple of additions (especially up front) could make our season a much more exciting one. I read that people are "quite happy" with our business in this window. Not sure where they get that confidence. For me any transfer for a club like Sunderland should improve our squad..Browne apart...I think we are just plugging gaps. Jury out on Poveda as he seems injury prone. In an ideal world we would make a statement signing and the others sit up and think we mean business this season...doubt it will happen tho.
He would look better playing off a bigger forward. He is strong for his size and is direct with an eye for goal. Not effective on his own though. We and the modern game though seem to want to have isolated forwards!
I'd take Joffy over Rusyn everytime. I don't see how Rusyn contributes too much. Joffy links play, can hold the ball a bit and can press. Rusyn is a willing runner but that's it for me.
I'd sell Rusyn personally, don't think it's worked. He's behind Mayenda in the pecking order.
Spurs are after solanke which will push lankshear further down the pecking order and make them more likely to loan him out, searched his name on twitter just now and apparently he’s had a canny pre season with spurs
Definitely wouldn’t want him ahead of one of these but I think he will become a good player.
He has, I hope we can get him he is a special talent along with Mikey Moore.
They were a class above in the U23 game in the end of last season play-off.

Big talent, seen him play 4 times I think and he's always impressed. 6ft2 and is built so I think he'd handle the physicality of the league well.
Wouldn't go down well in the fanbase if he was the only striker signed but I also think Spurs would want him playing 25+ games so doubt they'd loan him here to be 2nd or 3rd choice.
Best news we could have this week is a PL club want Ekwah and make a good offer. Our striker search would go into a completely different level. If the club are as organised as they say they are, we should have striker targets at that price bracket ready to go as soon as we have a sale.
I know we had our fingers burnt with Burstow, but this lad looks the business.
I wouldn’t be too disappointed to see him come in alongside Mendy.
Looks a good prospect but hell of a lot of pressure on him to be the main man here, we really can’t afford a prospect up top right now, granted there’s no guarantee a mendy works out either mind
If it’s mendy him Rusyn and mayenda I’m content I think, dunno why but I get a feeling a name will appear from no where though I don’t know how much longer we will wait on mendy
Less of that please.
We need a bit of both I think. We may get better quality through a loan like this than we can afford, but they will have off days and we need a mix of options.
Agreed mate, don’t envy speakman trying to strike the balance mind haha, I’d love stansfield to be the loan if we can’t get him perm
