Transfer Rumours The Sunderland Links/Transfer Rumours Thread - Summer 2025

Are you including me in that, if so I've honestly no idea what I've said that's out of order.

 

Heard Motherwell have a couple bids in for Miller, fairly reliable person told me (an agent who has done work with Motherwell recently) - said he's heard its a British team and a team from Italy

 

I wish there was a fingers crossed emoji on here

 

And here's me thinking RTG was down!

 

He's the Scottish Rigg in my opinion ...

... has the brain to operate in different systems and positions plus he's willing to learn.

I said last year we need to get in quick or forget him.

 

Yeah I am mate. It takes two to make an argument. A few people came on this thread to disagree that it was needed which was fair enough. Discussions happened and opinion seemed to be that the thread was indeed a good idea.

 

Hope it's Sunderland...and Sunderlandina.

 

Everyone at my work raves about him, they support different clubs and every single one of them rave about him

Might be the best young CM I've seen come through in Scotland for last 20 years

 

They seem to be quoting an article from sport.ua (not sure how reliable)


23-year-old Dynamo and Ukrainian national football team striker Vladislav Vanat may soon leave the Kiev club.

According to the source, the main favorite to sign the Ukrainian was English Sunderland, which beat other Premier League clubs in the fight for the Ukrainian. Dynamo set a price tag for the Ukrainian - 25 million euros, and the "black cats" agreed to pay this amount for Vanat.

This season, Vanat played 45 matches, scored 21 goals and made nine assists. Vladislav became the top scorer of the 2024/25 UPL.

It was previously reported that Leeds and Everton are interested in Vladislav Vanat .

 

People came on specifically to have a pop at me, I didn't have a go at anyone at all ...

... aren't I allowed to respond when what they're saying is nonsense on a thread they claim they don't want to be on?

Surely you're not telling me what I can and can't say.

Why should people come on this thread and tell other posters what they can and can't say?

If people don't like this thread wtf are they doing on here at all?

 

Can't this fairly reliable person be taken into the stationery cupboard and persuaded to reveal the full extent of his knowledge!?

 

It's just discussion, it's allowed.

I can't say it appeared that people came on here to have a pop at you. Maybe that's how you wanted to perceive it and so have an argument.

 

No, that's precisely what happened ..

... but maybe that's not how you wanted to perceive it.

Look back and tell me where I'm wrong, if I am I'll happily apologise.

In fact, I'll do it for you.

Here's the first, to whom I hadn't spoken to,

"Who gives a flying monkeys if it’s a few posters or a lot of posters joining in with the none Sunderland talk?

it’s a discussion forum if ONE person wants to talk about it they can

can people not see the hypocrisy in saying you can’t talk about that because I don’t want to so you must follow what I want to talk about."

"Just look who you’re replying to, the boards leader."

Only issue with having two threads is that it fragments the discussion a bit. Get why people wanted somewhere to discuss solid links but most of the discussion on the other thread is Sunderland related just about people who could only be described as 'linked' in the sense that they live in Europe.

 

Expected better than that from you pal... our new Dof has pounced

 

My worry with Miller would be Serie A. Plenty of young Scots have followed that pathway and have done well.

 

Im scared of missing out if someone cocks up and only posts on the transfers thread

 

It's all subjective but I feel that the thread turned into an argument at about this point:

You made a fair enough point but in an inflammatory way imo. Factually OK but with a bit of needle in it.

 

In all honesty mate, it's all totally irrelevant.

99.9% of posts are just rumours and guesswork.

If you want actual news you won't find it on forums like this.

 

Ah, so it was me who was inflammatory and not the people who came on specifically to have a go at me or call people backward ..

... seriously mate you're better than that.
