If you lose Sessegnon which I'm hearing is in the offing, then you're back to square one.

EDIT: Well, not quite, you would have added 10 goals from Fletcher, we'll assume that's about 5 extra points, so you'd still have 15 points to make up ;)

But you're losing Ben Arfa and Cabby before the window closes, once again Fat Mike is lining you lot up for a fall.
 
Without Sess....

Fletcher
McLean Seb Catts Colback Johnson

Still looks ok, arguably better balanced.

Larsson would't get much time and space in the middle mind, think he's best used out wide like.

But you're losing Ben Arfa and Cabby before the window closes, once again Fat Mike is lining you lot up for a fall.

If we sell Ben Arfa I think I may top myself, couldn't bear the thought of losing him, favourite player of all time alongside Shearer for me.

Fat Mike never lets us down, he just needs more time to sort out taking over Rangers.
Now there's an idea do you think he will have the bottle to sell him to Rangers?

<laugh> Don't you'll give me nightmares, I can just picture Cisse, Ba, Cabaye, HBA and Colo plying their trade at the home of Brechin or whatever **** Rangers are playing that week <laugh> Also, can't believe you haven't heard, it's actually SLIM Mike now.
 
Ben Arafat is your 2nd fave player - how much game time has he had? I,m sensing a petty fellow with A short, blinkered memory, or just limited short term memory due to being a ******?

is that the other name you're known by?

I look forward to seeing the potential line-ups next weekend

Ooof gloves are off...To be fair, he was a big name before he came to us, despite what Shearer said on MOTD (loved him as a player, but not exactly the most knowledgeable)...I remember being in disbelief when I heard we'd signed him, even more so when journo's were throwing sums as little as £2m around!

You must be brain dead sir, my favourite player isn't measured by how long they've been at the club, but the entertainment they provide and the moments of brilliance that will live long in the memory. I will probably never again see a goal like the one against Blackburn in the FA Cup, being there to witness that live was something I will always remember. He just fills you with excitement every time he gets the ball, that's why I love him. Who's your favourite player, Niall Quinn? <laugh> <doh>

Shearer was right when he said "Who the **** is Ben Arfa? Sounds like one of the Dead End Kids!"

My favourite player ever at Sunderland is Adam Johnson.
 
I couldn't give 2 ****s about Cattermole , frankly.

I was talking about Bally, Bally is beyond comparison to me.

He is too young to know that Chuck Norris came to the UK to make a film and when he asked to meet the hardest man in the country for a showdown.
Bally turned up and Norris pissed off back to the USA the film never got made.
 
Haven't read any of this thread as I've had a few and can't be chewed, but Johnson is a cracking signing. Will
Improve Sunderland considerably. However, we finished top 5 and the only team up In our regions who look weakened are arsenal. Will take some effort to break the top 6. We have a team full of class who have proven can do the job, and we have lost no one of note. Will be interesting to see how things develope.
 
Well we each have a definition of brilliant I suppose. I remember mags gloating years ago just how great dyer would be after his moments of brilliance at Everton. Or was that just the one moment? As for me:

For impudence, Sess. Steady-eddy Schwartz; For guile Hutchison, even Rae. for commitment and die for the cause attitude (my favourite trait) it has to be the right honourable Mr Ball (bardo is getting there, benno already is too) for cumbersome magnificence and a magnanimous attitude it is Quinn; all round striker SKP without a doubt; fun and frolics - Noz, perez...ther's been plenty..even Stan the man Vargas. and Kevin Kyle had a massive cock apparently.

This aside, there's some genuinely great mag players in my opinion (and I hate the lot of you), you've forgotten each with their own moment of shiny magic - and I know you like nice shiny things....but maybe that's the point:

Albert
A spirilla (purposeful spelling there chaps)
Beardsley
Gascoigne
Speed
Poppins
Waddle
Keegan
Cole
Ginola
ferdinand
Waddle
Collymore

Ultimately, I'm a little surprised you go straight to the Ben Arafat is great line. You don't have a tat of him on your back do you?
