    Verona have apparantly made contact and the deal is very possible.

    Still adapting to the league and although he looks nervy at times has done a good job against the physical strikers like Lukaku and Benteke.

    If we get an offer of a few million he will surely be off though as we got him for free.

    Sunderland has been contacted by Verona to sell Diakitè. Deal very possible


    Would be surprised to see him leave given Cuellar's contract nearly expired

    Plus see him as a better prospect than Roberge, therefore cant see it happening unless its for a good price

    Both bring something completely different for me like. Diakete brings strength and pace, Roberge brings composure and the ability to play the ball out. Both offer something different. Options are good. Good squad players.

    With Wes Browns injury record and O'Shea's not much better I'd be inclined to keep him, he probably just needs a run of games to settle down and get some confidence.

    Jake La Motta? Might give us a bit punch up front.
