    Just to emphasise because I feel like a grumpy idiot. My underwhelm of Adingra was more about the make up of our squad than the player himself. I reckon I’m gonna end up loving him.

    Understandable, but never been more relaxed just watching it play out with who we have running the show

    Losing them for a possible 5 games out of 4 seasons does not matter really especially we would probably lose the majority if they were here anyway

    Go with me here, I think AFCON lasts 4-6 games depending how far the specific team goes in the tournament. Someone correct me if that's not right, how many starts do you think someone like Roberts or Mundle gets in a league season with 38 games, I'm just trying to look at the rotation angle and keeping squad players happy, I imagine it's going to be difficult to keep those players happy if they're starting less than 20 games.

    I think if we were an established Premiership side I would be echoing what you're saying here but I almost struggle to believe we've the capacity to hold 5 first team wingers and successfully rotate and use them, and that's with it being a AFCON year.

    Defo like the Guessand link. Get him done and he’s a starter option both through the middle and out wide. Would allow us to concentrate elsewhere and leave it to some deadline day sniping to see if something interesting pops up.

    Can they do that? I thought if called up the expectation was you'd be expected to attend ( injuries aside)

    Surprised if people are underwhelmed with Adingra myself, not sure what profile people were hoping us to sign this summer?

    23 years old, has 60 premier league appearances (most of them starts) for a team who finished 11th and 8th in the prem when he played. 8 games in the Europa League at 22. Man of the match in the AFCON final which his team won less than 2 years ago.

    We're a newly promoted team and this was the kind of signing I was optimistically hoping we'd be trying to get done a month ago. Way better profile than Roberts or Mundle currently. Excited to see how he does, been chasing him since January.

    Fwiw I think our fifth winger will be a loan. Got a feeling we’ll sign two more midfielders, one permanent and then same as above, a loan

    Consensus generally pretty positive. All seem to think he will do well here.

    "Feels like a good deal all round. We get a decent fee and make a solid profit on someone who will always only be a squad player while Mitoma is here, Adingra gets a move to a decent club and the opportunity to play regularly and Sunderland get a decent young player who has premier league experience, has won afcon and was young player of the tournament as well as man of the match in the final."

    Got a sneaking feeling it may be a young lad from Liverpool

    I’ll say this mind.

    These wingers look great but I’ll hang my hat on Mundle making his mark next season.

    Lads a beast if injury all fully cleared. Love watching Mundle play and hope it continues.

    I think it’s 5 games if they go all the way, the 5th being Palace at home. The others include City and Spurs which likely we’ll take nout from anyway. Leeds at home which is massive and Brentford away which is a tricky fixture. If we lose them for 3 games and get them back for Brentford that’s not a bad scenario. They can’t all get to the final they’re from different nations
