Looks like Adam Johnson is about to join Sunderland for £10m, which could mean we will be hearing news about sinclairs departure soon to "citey" http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11679/8003494/Black-Cats-in-Johnson-talks Cheers Mabon
Respect to SS for doing a job off the bench yesterday. He could have easily done a Modric/Dempsey et al and refuse to play. Part of me is thinking perhaps yesterday may have changed his mind, but if he goes, great (if we get the money being touted and Hernandez as replacement). I definately don't want him staying and not extending the contract. It will all come down to wether he wants first team footy or risk another Chelsea type situation and can stand up to the soapstar missus. You could easily replace Adam Johnson's name in Mancini's quote from the article and see Scott's name instead in a 1 years time .... ...Mancini said: "Adam deserves to play because he is a good player, but it is not easy for me because I can only have 11 in my team. Every player who doesn't play is frustrated. I can understand that. "I will talk to him about what will happen now, but it is difficult to let him go because I need to have all my players at this moment. "When we start the Champions League, we hope to be playing a game every three days for 10 months, so it is not easy to decide about Adam." Bottom line is, the kid deserves better than the boos he got yesterday.... how fickle some fans are.
I would never boo a Swans player, let alone one who was so instrumental in our promotion. Anyone who did so is a cock. That said, Hernandez is a far better player so I hope we land him.
The fans that booed Scott should be ashamed of themselves. Think he may reconsider his future after yesterday.
If sinclair has doubts about leaving then being booed would probably make up his mind, like the guy above says fickle fans are detriment to every club, and you can literally swap johnsons name with sinclairs on what mancini has been quoted as saying because it will be the situation he will find himself in if he leaves, class win yesterday btw, was a good watch on MOTD.
