Care to name these full backs that you would have signed, just so we know what your quality threshold is? if there are players that we could have signed that we "don't know about", ergo we couldn't sign them, "known unknowns" I think is the phrase. And I don't think anyone has said we will "def get them before deadline" about any player.
And that's the problem ned. he's been asked 3 or 4 times to name the fullbacks we should have been in for but never does.

It's like a broken friggin record
 
Well done to the club for holding their nerve ...

... and shutting up those claiming we're skint, inactive and failing to sign players.

We could've easily signed a dozen left backs, before now, but we held out for a PL player and won a difficult game in the meantime.

"The left-footed teenager was hailed as a rising star with “a lot of quality” by Jose Mourinho when he took over as manager in November 2019."

Get him on the bus for the Potteries <laugh>
I’m first to admit I’ve been horrifically impatient but this deal has completely made me trust the process. This is signs of a completely new Sunderland. He was the man we wanted and we’ve got him. Didn’t look likely at one point so moved on. Easy thing to do would have just settled for Gallacher despite the better target being available. Stuck to our guns and got him. Very impressed, I’ll now retire from sharing my doubts hahaha

To be fair half the board have been saying well get what we need without a shred of evidence. I hope they are right as I want promotion.

Dennis… been a decent name for us in the past (Tueart, Smith)

Don’t believe it though. Why would we sign a left back. The people have all said it’s stupid how the club aren’t signing a left back. So we mustn’t be
Smith was Denis rather than Dennis if we're being picky ;)
 
I'll continue to reply as long as people quote me as is my right on a message board. We've no idea why they haven't gotten players in but as you agree they'd have wanted this earlier somethings not gone to plan and they need to chance tact or risk promotion. It's unlikely we'll get 6 or 7 quality players the rate were going.
This is obviously deliberate from you now and it's incredibly boring. Any chance you can give it a rest?

It's been explained to you by many posters on here and even Lee Johnson himself. Yet, you keep repeating it to try and wind people up.

If you are going to WUM try and mix it up a bit and keep it original. You've overplayed this tune, now <ok>

We've got him, definitely? I hope you're right.
