Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Hope we get some actual news this week, devil is seemingly making work for idle thumbs without it here.

im feeling positive RLBs comments about experience needed has me thinking we get Xhaka done, with some movement this week. Think the GK and CB links will firm up as well.

I can see attacking reinforcements going towards the end of the window, probably with some loan spots but would be happy with that if it means we get a wildcard

 

I kept away when I seen it all going off, I thought the pile on CR7 was OTT and unnecessary. I thought the comments to Adam were shocking about not wanting to hear about his feelings were after the guy has been so open about his MH. That come from a poster that two of the mods tried to make a mod earlier in the year. Speaks volumes.

 

Pleased I was on the drink yesterday and missed it all,for gods sake it’s a football forum no need to be piling into folk

 

Owt happened today?

 

And now Adam has left the forum

I almost went but have just whacked people on ignore now

 

More will follow soon too. Then this place can go back to being slow whilst the ‘everything is great’ remain!

 

I’m glad you haven’t left. I appreciate your posts and think you add to the discussion.
Same with Southern Adam to be fair.

 

Just Nixon saying we want a £12m deal for Riznyk

“Mackem news” understand we’ve made an approach for Ortega

Regis le Bris confirmed we want a goalkeeper, said the team is working hard behind the scenes for signings and after the hearts game he can see we are quite some way off where we need to be

Sunderland ownership have been trying everything to get Xhaka done but no agreement with Leverkusen still

RLB doesn’t know what to do with triantis, Abdullahi and Aleksic yet

 

Easiest way, tbh. That’s what I done a while ago.

Hopefully Adam just takes a break and comes back refreshed. He done a lot to generate debate on this board, he’ll be a miss if he stays away.

 

On a football topic just read a supercomputer article which predicts us to be bottom

May as well give up then, sign no-one and bank the money and run

Everyone live in harmony as we accept our fate.

 

I do read into his comments and it does kinda feel like we might be struggling to land signings atm comments and tone wise.

“I think we probably still need to sign a goalkeeper,” said the Sunderland boss. “The market is still open, although the market is unpredictable and it is always like that.

“At the minute, we are focused on the squad we have – that is always the case – but obviously we will also be trying to reinforce the squad. We don’t know when, and we don’t know how exactly, but we are working hard behind the scenes.”

Probably just RLB being his usual can’t give much away self like but it does feel like we’ve stagnated last couple of weeks

 

You’re all doing stellar work, gents. Please don’t kill each other.

This thread being so regularly updated keeps me away from the cesspit of Twitter to get my transfer fix. You’ve saved my eternal soul from Musks corruption.

 

Look at the current PL squads and that’s no surprise. We’d be doing extremely well to stay up, so much more work to be done in the transfer window

Hopefully GK and CB in asap.

 

We need to reinforce the back line massively imo for us to stand a chance

 

Yep, current squad goes down but most of us already know that. Huge few weeks ahead

 

Aye, if your wearing Wellies..

 

On a serious point, football journalism has been getting worse for years, but any "super computer prediction" articles are probably the worst and most lazy articles out there. They only exist as click bait at best and are an insult to peoples intelligence, so pointless they might as well have not been written.

 

Last seasons predictions from the super computer…

Leeds 7th
Sunderland 14th

 

Your predictions are usually wrong though
