Any reliable rumours going around Tobes? Been very quiet in the media. Seems you're getting the staff sorted first, wise tbf.
Certainly one player we don't want to lose, struck up a good pairing with Kaboul at the end of the season. Moyes must have someone ready to bring in if there is any truth in this one?
Not seen much of him, but I liked what I saw when watching you lads back end of last season. Moyes knows a CB though mate, so you can be assured that he'll bring in a quality replacement.
That he might, but still cant get my head round selling a quality centre back that we already have unless of course its to make a quick profit.
Has the wool been pulled over Koeman's eyes?....just where is this supposed £100m + Stones fee warchest?....being linked with defenders from average clubs and yet to meet asking fees, all seems a bit odd...
Ha!, no offence meant VG and you could include Saints in that statement as they were linked to Fonte as well. What I meant is that IF they had £150m burning a hole then surely they could get a top defender in for £30m+
Why do we have to spend £30m+ to get a quality CB? Williams is better than anything we've got and he'll end up costing less than half that. The Mackems are gutted about potentially losing Kone even at £18m.
I said we'd get more than £10m £12m is a great deal for a 32 year old. Hopefully we'll use that on a quality defender now and get the Borja Baston deal tied up today.
No lol, we don't do things like that at Sunderland. he is on a 4 year contract and believe he is getting paid a pittance. Sam was going to give him a new improved contract but that hasn't materialised as of yet and looks like its too late to do one now. Certainly buy out clauses are a must now for the future, everyone else seems to be putting them in place.
