Just a wee update on Aouchiche. He is playing central midfield uo here last few games and has been absolutely superb - skill, vision, link uo play and attacking - finally the player which I was so excited about getting in at the start of the season. Anyway, best of luck today in the big one..

Thanks, no offence taken. There can be some outbreaks of technically decent football at times though Encouraging that you rate him in what I would say is a pretty tidy Sunderland squad. It’s players such as this we need to properly compete against Celtic and to a lesser extent, rangers up here...

Cheers, aye he’ll acclimatise soon enough I’m sure to the bracing breeze from the North Sea. Pittodrie can be the coldest place on earth and our first game of the year believe it or not, after playing 20 minutes in a blizzard, the orange ball made an appearance - hadn’t seen that in years...

Thanks really appreciate the analysis, sounds really encouraging and a real professional when others may have thrown their toys out the pram at not getting gametime. We have the makings of something special at Pittodrie atm, last season was a transitional season and finished of course with a...

Cheers, all sounds really encouraging. Sometimes there’s no doubt as to ability but there’s perhaps an attitude problem or something going one behind the scenes, definitely not the case here. Good luck next season, great to see you guys back in the top flight and looking forward to seeing how...

Aye just a wee trip up the road for you then! That’s good, you’ll have a unique perspective on him. We’ve signed 7 players and counting so far this summer and to be honest AA (much easier just to go with initials) is the one which excites me the most, I think he will fit in no probs. Just need...

That’s great to hear cheers. Yeah the Scottish game can take time for some players to adapt to but he sounds like just what we need and there is definitely a vacancy here for a central attacking midfielder!

Thanks for that, exactly what I was hoping to hear, absolutely my kind of player. I did get a sense from what I was reading that he just didn’t quite fit into the system at Sunderland and just wasn’t getting a run of chances. A ball carrier in the middle is something we lack just now. The...

Alright guys Dons fan here. I’ve read generally nice things from Sunderland fans about this player which is usually quite telling, on paper he could I think do well for us up here. Is that fair comment?
