I actually think Wilson, Mayenda, Rusyn and possibly Hemir is disappointing but if Wilson is decent the other three have an extra year’s development and acclimatisation so are probably better options than last year. My big worry is absolutely no fullback competition at all.
Once the signings are announced we are stronger as a whole than we were at the end of May for the way we set up to play! Far too much focus on transfer fees, since KLD came in the club never release fees and for good reason! We have tied up some very good young players on longer contracts and signed the experienced players we longed for last season. Front line consists of Wilson, Poveda, Mayenda & Rusyn, an improvement on last season. We have potentially the best midfield and defence outside of the premier league. We will have a very good season.
Genuinely a quality signing. If this happened on any other day it would be lauded as the great signing that it is.
Bit like a striker? We are delighted to welcome Chris to Sunderland. This is an area we wanted to strengthen before the deadline
The 3 seem to be excellent signing, sadly it will be overlooked because of the failure to bring another striker in
They seem to do this on a deadline day don’t they? The late ones get an announcement. But the scarf photos and stuff all get put out in stages the following morning. No idea why! If they’re done just throw them up!
