Never heard of Baradji until 10 minutes ago. Quick YouTube and he looks like he's got the exact attributes we need. Pace and power. Massive step up in quality but if we bring him in to fill out the squad, ie replace Browne and Samed, that's fine by me.
A star of the U21 Euro’s so far, Quentin Merlin (23, please log in to view this image ) has been linked to many clubs, most notably Sunderland. #SAFC He’s 18 months into his time with Marseille having signed from Nantes in January 2024. #OM please log in to view this image
Sunderland are in talks with Sassuolo over Armand Lauriente. Journalist followed by Romano Lauriente used to play for Lorient B under RLB Right footed left winger. Very quick. 26 years old
Be massive this, 18G 6A's last season, played in the top flights of italy and france his whole career bar last season. Rated at €15m on transfermarkt, Marseille and Roma want him too
Adama Traoré fast a foock, no end product most of the time. Nicky Summerbee, beat players with skill and pin point delivery.
Pace and power is required in the PL Adama Traore would also walk into our side with absolute ease, poor example.
Virtually impossible to stop despite having only one move. Not interested in going past two defenders or cutting inside for a shot … … just the same predictable cross almost every time. Defenders knew exactly what he’d do but couldn’t stop him
Sunderland #SAFC looking for reinforcements for the outside lanes. Among the options being considered is also that linked to #Angelino of #Roma
Why would he? Does he fit our style of play? No. He's played for Barcelona with some of the best players in the world and his fantastic pace and strength didn't set the world alight. Poor example, No. Some of the best players in world never had pace and strength. Zidane, Figo, Messi, Valdarama, Pirlo, Beckham, Best, Gascoigne, Keane, Viera, Cantona, Toure, Quinn, O'Shea, Vidic, Campbell, Shearer, Rooney, Petite. The list goes on.
Like steed played at walking football pace but was so hard to take the ball off, still remember his double nutmeg against Man City, played with a cigar in his mouth, loved watching him
He’s better than what we’ve got, for starters. You’re naive if you believe pace and power isn’t required in the PL these days.
