    I mean yeh - people in the transfer thread want to see transfers. Massive shock. Quite bored of the patronising.

    yep would give us 2 left backs that can cover centre back (3 if Hjelde stays) and then also have O’Nien, Seelt, Ballard and the other new centre back. Plus Huggins covering right back.

    only requires net one new addition (Cirkin out and 2 cbs in) but gives plenty of cover across the board

    this is all if Cirkin wants to leave. I’d like him to stay but I’m a bit discouraged by his total absence from any pre season media

    Would probably probably want a proper left back if Cirkin left, Igor is very average in both roles.

    Igor julio and Singo would be a pair of great additions.Two centre halves that can each cover a full back flank, particularly when we want to be more defensive.

    Lucumi > igor julio. If igor julio is the best defender we bring in, I think we will go down tbh. Wouldn’t mind him as a second best addition.

    I don't mind Igor, as long as he's partnered with a Diakite level CB. Nothing special, just solid.

    We were linked to him a few weeks ago, not surprising with the clicks for cash journalists and agents drumming up price and interest

    It might be someone we enquired about a while back, who knows, I’m not expecting any genuine interest

    It also tells us something about the increasingly high stakes for Sunderland as they return to the top transfer markets following promotion. With figures of this level involved, the risks are significant and it is telling that they have ultimately opted to walk away. Everything has to be right given the potential liabilities and on this occasion, it wasn't. For what it's worth, sources at both ends of the deal have indicated that there is no lingering bad feeling as Laurienté returns to Italy. Time will tell, but there are also no suggestions that this is brinkmanship and that a deal could be revisited. Everyone seems to be moving on quickly.

    As far as I’m concerned each player, coming back from injury like Alese, is fit until further notice …

    … Hume had a hip injury that stopped him playing for his country but now looks bulletproof.

    Sometimes players can have a bad run then never suffer a bad injury again.

    I don’t concern myself and prefer to leave those judgments to the club.

    Jayden Danns sprung to mind as soon as I saw it.

    Absolutely mate, heaps of cases of this.

    Pinning a lot on Huggins. Just such a Tory little player.

    Alese build is a concern as that bulk can cause injuries, but plenty tanks played plenty games.
