    They chant “I’m a realist” at their negative twat club meetings.

    I love Ballard he’s nails and just loves getting stuck in.

    Looking like he has signed. Thank **** for that. Am I right in thinking he is more of a forward to play alongside Stewart than a like for like replacement?

    The only place on the front I want to see him is in front of the goal. I'm sure that this one has drained a lot of fans nerves.. Another one (CF) needed in and a CDM

    It's about equal for last season ...

    ... the difference is that Sunderland need a striker and already have wide players.

    Rusyn will be wanting to get stuck in and score before Stewart is fully fit. If he plays alongside Stewart that's possibly Clarke or Roberts going or makes it difficult to include Jobe and Dack at home.

    Sod it, you sort it out Mowbray <laugh>

    Can't see another striker coming in, Rusyn, Stewart, Hemir and Mayenda for the 1 striker position we play, even if we went 2 up top, we have cover

    The good thing is both Mayenda and Rusyn can also play out wide

    Yeah that would be it surely. It'll be interesting to see what we do, you'd think we'd stick with one up top but then again we played Simms and Stewart when they were the only CF at the club so who knows.

    We have options and just as importantly we don't have to rush Stewart back

    Wasn’t it 2 up top under Neil before Mowbray came in? Can’t remember exactly but I’m sure Stewart got injured about a week after TM joined!

    Great window for us once Rusyn is through the door. Only thing that would perfect it for me is a natural CB and CDM through the door who’ve both played a fair bit of football at this level and can lead on the pitch. Hopefully we can get at least one of those sorted via a loan.

    He'll find another thing to moan about when Cannon joins on deadline day

    I thought we played two up top with Mowbray but you're probably right I don't have a great memory for these things.

    Just an experienced CM for me now, I think we're ok in defence.

    I also noted Mowbrays positive sounding words around Mayenda and him being ready to play.

    Like he was making clear he was ready physically.

    This Rusyn looks a coup to be fair. Lots of interest seems he fancied coming here.

    Hopefully he’s more Shevchenko than Rebrov.

    If we are looking to move players on, is it a huge stretch to think of it like this?

    Batth - Seelt and Triantis
    Gooch - Rusyn (can play wing as can Gooch, plus Huggins hopefully fit
    Pritchard - premier league loan (Amad)

    you are presuming Hemir and Stewart are going to come, In Hemirs case good and a full recovery in Stewarts. I wish I had your faith.
