Hull fans seem to think he's on his way back here http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/184670-Sunderland-ready-to-recall-Meyler ... hope so
I agree talc - although have a little hope that he pushes on if recalled and makes the 2nd centre mid spot his own - fingers crossed eh?
Up to those really bad injuries, he was more than a match and sometimes even surpassing the likes of Cana and Cattermole. Good passing, tackling and a fantastic physical presence. However, it still remains to be seen if those injuries they have taken that out of his game and although I would welcome him back to get a run of games here, I have my doubts. Would be delighted to be completely wrong though, as I really like this lads whole attitude and commitment to SAFC.
Delighted if true. Get him in whilst Catts is out. Will do a job until the summer when we will/can probably recruit another CM for a more sensible price. Any club looking at us at the mo will see us as desperate to remain in the EPL and inflate the price.
If he could regain his past form he would be exactly the player we need. Tall, good in the air strong and a good tackler. He can also pass too. Could and I say could make a real difference. Depends if MON plays him. He is a better option than Colback and has been better than Catts in the past.
has he been playing for hull?? and has he been playing well?? if yes get him back and give him a go if not leave him there to get some game time.
Yeah he's playing and playing well, by all accounts. He has scored in each of his last 2 games as well.
Started rusty, as you aspect after injuries. Great physical presence and is enjoying his time here with 2 in 2 (should of been 3) Wouldn't be a huge loss for us if he did return however.
This thing with Hull could have huge benefits for both clubs.. We loan them players to help them get promoted and good luck to them.. How ever if they don't do it this season, hopefully the clubs can work together again next season (if we stay up) maybe's they can help the like of Noble, Ji, or even Wickham if he gets frozen out again due to us signing a new striker.. But they could help us out by buying Campbell first...................please.
Campbell isnt willing to drop down to the champ If we do get promoted we could loan you a player or two to help you bounce back to the prem
