recall me dad buyong papers when we were in south of France in 2005 to find out news. crazy what we have now at our fignertips
That’s how I found out we lost 3-1 at home to Charlton first game of our return under mick McCarthy should have known then it was a miserable season ahead
I’m 28 and for years when my family would go to Spain, I used to go to this place we called “the office “ served alcohol for my dad had sports on the tv but had theses computers that you put €1 in for like half an hour on it would spend my time on it trying to get the latest Sunderland transfer news. I’ve been in Spain 10 days and haven’t been I kinda miss when that’s what you had to do
Would suit Zak. As you know I am quite sweet on him. Doesn't mean I think he is our next CB in the making. But we owe him the best possible loan to help him find his best level.
it's so funny listening to their delusions about isak out loud and he's getting torn down so bad haha
it’s funny. It’s almost like he doesn’t know what his argument is and is just annoyed about everything. that said I find this video horrendous to watch. Gobby lads just shouting over each other.
The facts speak for themselves: A bid to BL must have been made that was acceptable or nearly acceptable to allow us to speak to the lad. The BL must then have granted permission to speak with lad and his agent. Both parties agreed personal terms in fairly short order. The Lads agent then puts out the press release stating he will only sign for Sunderland and that everything is agreed personally. All other interested Clubs have then backed off Both Clubs are negotiating the final fee. ETH is immaterial to the proceedings
Remember sitting on the beach in Greece reading yesterdays papers and seeing Don Hutchinson had gone....proper spoilt me holiday that did.
Granit Xhaka has agreed terms to join Sunderland, with the Premier League side now locked in talks to agree a fee with Bayer Leverkusen. The German club have been pushing for a fee of about £15million for the 32-year-old former Arsenal midfielder. Sunderland are thought to have had a lower offer already turned down. Newly promoted Sunderland are prepared to give Xhaka a three-year deal if he returns to England. The Saudi Pro League side Neom SC and Turkey’s Fenerbahce have also been keen on signing the player, who has instead decided he wants to return to the Premier League and play for Régis Le Bris. - The Athletic
Look on the bright side mate. At least the accuracy of the media, and quality of journalism is so much better. Oh, hang on a minute there...
The thing is, it says a lower fee rejected? How much lower? 2 million? 5 million? We don’t have a clue how close we really are to agreeing a fee.
I’ve not see anything on Xhaka that changes the situation beyond what Ornstein reported yesterday. Everything else seems like guesswork, extrapolation and repetition.
Sacha reckoned it was a 10m deal, I think £10-15m is quite reasonable me for his quality, I wouldn't be shocked to see us agree a fee sooner rather than later after KLD has spent weeks just trying to convince Xhaka to come
