Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

He's some player still FT. It will help everyone. As did Waddle, who came a bit too late to save us.

To me he resembles an old fashioned midfielder. A lot is said now about holding guys, ones who attack, this one doing a bit in the middle and so on.

But as you know, not that long ago, midfields had two players in there, and they had to do a bit ( actually a lot!) of everything.

He isn't Keane, or Robson or Bell , but I've always seen him as that type. He always seems to be there when you need him, defending, passing, making, even sometimes scoring.

I wouldn't know where to start looking, but I'd bet those coloured charts they have now show this!

 

Has he signed yet? Like a kid at Christmas.

 

Never known so much positivity on here about a signing. Hopefully any other players we're looking at will be busting a gut to want to be a part of what KLD et al have planned. West Ham game can't come quick enough!

 

im going to say 4pm today

 

i go 6pm

 

Is this the most impressive signing we’ve made in living memory? I’m struggling to think of a better one.

 

It’s my super power (jinxing)

 

I’ll say 17:00!

 

Only Gyan I can think of that’s even close, but we were already a PL team when that happened.

I’d say yes given his stature in game, where he’s come from and where we’ve been.

 

It will be around tea time to get maximum coverage

 

I'm saying 14.34 lol

 

was being scouted as a Lucumi replacement

 

Dave's been getting the credit for those pies for fecking years . . . . the lying bastard

#SAFC owner Kyril Louis Dreyfus collected his compatriot Xhaka on his luxury plane and brought him to the North East.

Dreyfus told by Leverkusen they wanted another £8m for the deal to happen, so he wrote the cheque.

Anyone know if he's any good?

While many clubs, including West Ham United, Aston Villa, and RB Leipzig, are closely monitoring Barış Alper Yılmaz, the most serious interest has come from Premier League club Sunderland. (HT Spor)

 

I don't think Keith understands how KLD works, there's no way we just throw money at things now. I think he's been covering the mags for too long.

 

'So, what experience do you have at air traffic controlling, what makes me want to hire you?'

'I spend the entire transfer window on FlightRadar'

'Your hired!'

 

Xhaka really wanted to come to Sunderland didn't he ...

... his presence will persuade at least one more top player to come here.

It's funny that you get a totally different answer if you search a dozen 'journalists' for the fee and add-ons, etc.

Happily I couldn't care less, not my money.

 

You would think so

 

I certainly hope so
