Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Any opinions on Sam Surridge?

 

Sounds like Altidore.
TBF if they were to swap this lad in a years time for an equivalent of the Defoe/Altidore greatest Safc swap deal in history I'd be all for it.

 

Maybe 5 years ago

 

Will get far far better for the money they will want

 

26 years old and has 18 in 22 this season, ahead of Messi and everyone else in the scoring charts. Out of contract in the winter, not even worth a look?

 

Saddest thing I heard was Mowbray trying to learn Tim Buck Two or something

 

I was all for getting him a few years ago - think we were in League One then or maybe newly promoted. Not a PL player though. Didn't even know he was still about - just found he's in the MLS.

 

Arokodare has shades of Onuachu about him both in the positives and the negatives

It would be good to have that type of profile striker so we can play direct if needs be, the big weakness for our current forwards is aerially

Still crossing everything for Guessand but it seems like it wont happen

 

Think there's been a few different rumours, I heard from someone who said its because he wanted a new challenge. I don't think any of us or the ITKs will know the exact reason

Contract negotiations can be really difficult, especially ones that will likely have a big wage increase involved

I really hope he stays though, as a Sunderland fan I'm always so proud seeing academy boys develop into 1st team regulars and he has the added of developing in to our captain

 

Nope not at all

If we were in the championship then maybe but he is not a PL striker at all

 

100% mate. Captaining us in the PL is a huge,new challenge for him I would have thought.

 

No not in a million years

 

Can he triple back flip then im in

 

Huge risk like, but I just think he's got something special. Time will tell though, can fully understand why fans would rather have someone with a relative proven record.

Isidor has to show a bit more this season. Thought his all round play was frustrating last year but got the goals to make amends, he wont get that many chances in front of goal this season. Other worry for me is, I dont think he looked that comfortable on the left (even though that was meant to be his position), hoping he can do a job if needed there especially during AFCON.

 

Isidor could well be more suited to PL.

He will be a valuable player I’ve no doubt.

 

I'm more than confident that Isidor and Mayenda, feeding off a central ELF and Diarra, are going to both surprise a lot of people this season.

 

Mayenda won’t surprise any of us. We know what we’ve got.

An absolute beast.
