Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Isak ACTUALLY getting to wear a proper famous number 9 shirt has tickled me mind.

Now that’s a 9 shirt with some legacy.

 

Want the slightest bit interested in Birmingham. But I'll be looking now, hoping Paddy does his things there.

 

People wont like to admit but bt is a panic buy, shown by only a one year deal

superb window mind

 

STUNNING window.

We were proud all ready after last season but the bar has been raised.

KLD, Speakman, Ghisolfi, and Regis, thank you.

We Are Sunderland.

 

Why does this picture of Wissa look like he's been caught by the police having a piss against a wall??? Are their photographers that hopeless?

 

How’s it a panic buy?

 

As a sentimental old softy I'd loved to have seen Sunderland go bravely into this season with the same players who somehow managed to get us up ...

... the reality is that we'd have probably been decimated already.

I'm looking forward to seeing how Rigg, Hume, Ballard grow into the PL but it's a brutal league and there's no room for misty eyed sentimentality.

 

be a stop gap hoping we can get better if we can stay up

 

I’m very happy with how we finished up!!

 

A cheap buy price, 1 year deal, premier experience, clearly bought for depth. It’s the polar opposite of panic buy. It’s not the X factor winger we wanted but we clearly pivoted and spent the money on the ST instead

 

Traore will be fine as a squad player. £2.5m is **** all in the PL these days

 

So far beyond my expectations as to be other worldly.

How lucky we are to have this owner, these people guiding the ship.

Hello world!! It's us, Sunderland. We're back!

 

If Traore had been the first signing of the window probably would have thought a solid enough addition to the squad, it's just compared to all the others seems a bit anticlimactic. Sure he'll do a job for us.

 

Lets see how many minutes he gets….my guess not many he is and was ay least 8th target

 

Just a smart pivot signing really and he brings a load of experience and off the back of a 18 G/A’s season

 

I think it looks like a “ do a job” last minute gap filler in some respects but pretty much everyone wanted an experienced forward akin to Xhaka and Reinildo. Granted he’s not that quality but could very much be an astute signing and brings big club as well as premier league experience.

 

At that price, and with the fact he nicks a goal or two he could be the best value of the lot!

 

The fact we spoke to BB 5 weeks ago shows we did not pivot

 

We’d have gone down bottom, and badly bottom mate.

The players we’ve retained are likely here a long time, and sold upwards.

We haven’t sold our soul, we’ve bought savvy, at fair prices.

We’ve done brilliantly.

Patto
Trai
Ballard
Cirkin
Mayenda
Mundle
Rigg
Neil
Wilson

These are all getting minutes, some of them will get a LOT of minutes.

I’m gonna call it ‘rapid evolution’. That’s a hefty list of players staying part of the first team squad for a no hoper playoff winner.

We’ve done it different. I wager all of those players retained have PL careers.
