Tough for RS… really feel for the lad. Quality finisher and the move to Southampton made perfect “ financial “ sense. good player for us, however, can’t see him featuring in Premier League ever again
hope he gets fit and gets his chance, the lad did very well for us i think he earned his chance to prove himself in the premier.
Putting myself in his shoes, I’d like to think I would be very proud to have made it to the Premier League & have that memory of scoring at Wembley. And having the financial security for my family. But there would always be that feeling of “what if?”. If not for the injuries, how far could he have gone?
Agreed. I bear no ill will towards him for taking the opportunity to play at a higher level (or Clarke for that matter). This is the model and Sunderland 100% got the better end of the deal. As for Roscoe, I sincerely hope he gets back and smashes it for Southampton (not against us like)
Agreed. He was magnificent for us when fully fit and playing week in, week out. Could’ve scored goals at any level
The horrible thing is, if he'd not played and been injured then, with his injury record in hindsight, it might have just delayed it and it could have happened any time after that.
Yep - Middlesbrough, Sheff United and Derby. He’d played quite a bit recently (by his standards) please log in to view this image
I think that will be Ross done down there. His contract is up in '26 and if the "months" are more than three or four, by the time he gets ready again it'll be almost all over.
