Same source that broke to me that AJ signed hours before it was announced just send me a message. Sunderland are to make a really big stellar signing this week. No names were given but apparently its big enough to have been part of what swayed AJ into signing. Now, I'm not saying this is 100% but from where it came from I'd say I'm already having sleepless nights with excitement. We will just have to wait and see I guess.
WE might not be spending a lot of money Vince? I'm trawling the websites now to see if there are any free transfers still to be snapped up? Lol That said, who knows what Ellis is prepared to invest and he obviously trusts MoN totally and has decided to throw a little bit of caution to the wind. Maybe he sees this as a major season where we can break into the top 6 and get the ball well and truly rolling. Its got me bloody excited i can tell you. Good source too.
Dawson ......Mandy Carroll.......Berb........Strinic........Owen........Bent.......... Olsson...........there are quite a few out there
Yeah sick of hearing this one mate as well, would he improve us or hold us back? How you are right Cest probably Strinic though a LB by all accounts, radical stuff from a Sunderland manager.
A "Stellar signing" would mean a world class player to me - and I have to confess to being sceptical ! That said I was hugely excited and impressed when we got Johnson so who knows ?! Still think we need at least one full back and another striker. Here's hoping !
now you got me thinking maybe we will get some big name and if it's equally good as Adam Johnson I will be happy
Not sure about Messi mesel like. Has anyone checked if he would get into the mag team or not. Surely this is the benchmark for every manager before he signs anyone. Lol
hope more than anything its a central midfielder If we got a 10m centre mid with vision and some class about there game we would be absolutely fantastic! If not a CM then a RB would do me
There was that journo the other week said he had inside info that Ellis had said he 'expected to spend close to £50 million'. If that's the case, we have near to £28million left, Strinic will likely cost £4-6million. Let's see, but after the AJ deal, anything can happen.
If its true and its a name that swayed AJ, it wont be anything less than a huge signing surely. I'm gonna need sleeping tablets by Wednesday at this rate. Lol
around 50m eh as you say around 28m left, pretty sure Strinic is going to sign and as you say thats 4-6 say 22m left would love us to bring in Gudetti (loan) 10m CM Dawson 9m RB for around 5m sell Richardson, Campbell, Bramble, Killa, Elmo and Vaughan to add a few more million to the kitty for the players above and create room on the wage list loan out Wickham would give us a squad of GK - Mignolet, Westwood RB - New RB, Bardsley LB - Strinic CB - Dawson, O'Shea, Brown, Cuellar, Laing CM - New CM, Cattermole, Colback, Gardner, Meyler W - Larsson, McClean, Johnson AM - Sessegnon CF - Fletcher, Saha, Guidetti, Ji maybe loan another winger if u cud
just read about the rumour is gathering on twitter that we are after Anderson!!! Would absolutely love him in our midfield, been unlucky with injuries at united, Sir Alex has limited him abit by not allowing him to get forward as much as he can would be absolutely brilliant in our CM I hope he is the player that is coming in
