Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Let’s wait until the mags make their best offer for the player they are desperate for , then outbid them .

 

Honestly I read Keith's tweet and thought it was positive. The 4-5 means quality editions not total. We've already signed one as it is. And Keith always underestimates. Last year I think he said 2-3 and we signed like 8.

He's said we're looking to break our transfer record. Great.

I don't think people need to over-react to it.

 

Phillip billing a realistic target? Just said on sky napoli arent signing him permanently, he didnt really play much

 

None of us know who/how many we're going to sign and neither do the journo's.
We'll all find out once the scarf pictures emerge at the AOL.
Doesn't stop everyone guessing mind.

 

Signing Henderson could be a positive mind, just to show that Keef knows nowt. Clown of the highest order.

 

I reckon upto 10 overall, including longer term prospects. How mad is it seeing our names linked with some quality players with multi million pound bids after the last 5 year

 

He had Roko Simic as signed i'm pretty sure haha

 

Here he is!

 

Yes but it wouldn’t be very “Sunderland fan” if nobody overreacted, would it? Not like anyone has overreacted over the last couple of months is it?

 

That’ll be miles off. When was the last time we only signed that many in summer?
Think it was 10 last summer. 14 the season before. 10 first season promoted. 9 in the promotion year. 4 or 5 guaranteed starters might be close but I reckon we’ll sign more than 10 in total.

 

Been so much he's got wrong over the years. He must be furious now that he has to properly report on us.

 

How many times you going to reply?

Nobody has been wrote off. Criticised at times? Absolutely.

I think the below players have the right / expectation to be given a chance to start games:

Patto ; Ballard ; Hume ; Cirkin ; Neil ; Le Fee ; Mundle ; Mayenda

That's 8 players. So 5 quality additions before pre-season to supplement them. Then you still have Rigg, Isidor, Huggins, Seelt, Alese, O'Nien, Roberts.

I never thought we'd go out and buy 8-10 new starters.

 

I am not worrying about what any journo has to say especially this early on in the window, the recruitment team have earned every right for me to trust them, I’m backing them to make the right calls

 

I trust Magnus more than Keef the Saudi scumbag

 

Nah not starters but I want us to sign sufficient depth

 

Centre back, centre mid, right wing are my immediate priorities.

 

I'm pretty confident we'll sign fewer than you want us to but more than Keith says. Compromise?

 

The one thing history has shown us Sunderland fans since KLD and KS took over, Players coming in are rarely called long before they sign... Can't think of a signing we have made that was called by journalists weeks before he came. The ownership keeps cards very close to their chest... For me, thats the way it should be.
