    Actually it’s interesting Cannon is going on LOAN to Stoke considering everyone was bidding permanents.

    I’ve got no doubt that Stoke pay better wages than we do.

    I always saw 6 as the CB king and 5 as a kind of capable if less prestigious accomplice.

    6 can be a right back or a CM.

    5 is a CB.

    I wouldn't go that far, I feel like we have a good structure in place for these lads to thrive but it requires two to tango, sometimes failure spurs on success, there are a million stories like that, I just feel maybe we should have persisted a little more.

    How come? We've got the likes of Rigg, Ballard, Jobe, Browne, Roberts etc tied down to decent length contracts - I don't see too many in their ranks of a similar calibre or demand.

    6 was a CB when it was 1-11.

    5 remained so, 6 moves around.

    Best 6 in the world is Joshua Kimmich, prime example. RB/Holding mid

    Closer to his family in the North West is the reason I read he had chosen to go to Stoke.

    5 right sided CB and 6 left sided CB. Number 4 in the Bracewell role. That's how I remember it.

    Stoke is closer to Merseyside

    This is why I'm no longer desperate for Sunderland to chase 'success' because there won't really be any real consistent success.

    Sorry but the best we can hope for is the odd victory at a top four ground, a cup final and a few games in Europe.

    I'm more interested in getting down to a scruffy hole, on the south coast, meeting up with the lads and seeing if we can create history by winning the first four games without conceding ...

    ... if that means I'm accepting mediocrity, and being part of the problem, I really don't give a shiny shyte <laugh>

    Think he wanted a loan and not a full move

    Not sure what the obsession with cannon is, he's another player who hasn't played that many games

    I’m sure their wage bill was almost double ours when the latest accounts were released

    If not, I’m thinking of the year before.
