Dont like the sound of this much, sounds like an arsenal come and get me plea http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...-says-face-season-struggle.html#ixzz2V98yaHkI Simon Mignolet has increased the likelihood of a £6.5m move to Anfield by admitting he would not relish another season of struggle at Sunderland. Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is on the lookout for a new number one, amid growing uncertainty over Pepe Reina’s future, and has identified Mignolet as his first choice. While Sunderland may be reluctant to sell, after the way he helped stave off relegation last season, it would appear the 24-year old might take little persuading, after opening up on his frustrations at the Stadium of Light. Summer move: Sunderland goalkeeper Simon Mignolet, seen here in action for Belgium against the USA last week, has admitted he would like a move, potentially to Liverpool A double player-of-the-year winner, the Belgium keeper was a key figure in ensuring Sunderland remained in the Barclays Premier League but is in no hurry to repeat the experience next season. Speaking on international duty, he was quizzed about growing rumours he could be on his way this summer, with Liverpool now ahead of Arsenal in the race to sign him. ‘I am ambitious, and I read the press as you do,’ he replied. ‘It has been a difficult season with Sunderland. It’s not much fun to play bottom of the League, and I think Sunderland will know they have to change something to prevent another season like that. Dogfight: Mignolet admitted he doesn't relish another season of struggle against relegation at Sunderland ‘The manager (Paolo Di Canio) wants to change the team for the better. Let's hope he can do that next season. 'I am happy with my season. I played 38 matches. Few players can say they did that in a Premier League season. I also managed 11 clean sheets, which is not bad if you're playing at the bottom of the division. To do that, you have to be mentally strong, and I think it shows I have progressed a lot as a goalkeeper. Top class: Mignolet pulls off a save against Reading last season 'Apart from the two club awards, I was voted north-east player of the year, and that is not a bad achievement, considering Newcastle were playing in European competition and had players like Demba Ba and Ben Arfa in their ranks. I have had a good season, so it's logical your name is linked with one or two teams. ‘I have read about it, but I haven’t heard anything. I know there has been talk about Arsenal, but I haven’t heard anything or received a phone call from Arsene Wenger. I will stay calm and focused on the Belgium games, and after that, go on holiday with my girlfriend. We will see what happens.' More... Sunderland looking to wing it! Fenerbache's Krasic says Black Cats want to sign him Sunderland ready to move for former Newcastle keeper Forster if Arsenal follow up Mignolet interest
I think they've been very selective in their use of what Mig said mate. They're trying to make out like he's actively looking, when all he's saying is, "we'll see what happens". Journos trying to put two and two together to get thirty six.
Theres a link kicking about (cant find it) that says the mig is about to sign a new deal with a buyout clause, its been negotiated for months apparently
Bugger, hope it's not true. Would like another year out of him at least. I'd hope he wants to see what PDC can do before he makes up his mind. Was this clause in his contract from the beginning, or when renegotiated and what triggers it?
http://www.tribalfootball.com/artic...ause-new-sunderland-deal-3961189#.UayMpdJJ6tN A new deal for Sunderland goalkeeper Simon Mignolet could depend on a buyout clause. The Journal says Sunderland are hopeful that Mignolet will commit to the club over the summer and have been impressed by his level-headed approach to the very real interest that is emanating from Liverpool and Arsenal. His agents have flown over to England in recent months to begin negotiations on a contract extension, but nothing is signed yet – and it may even hinge on a release clause that would allow him to talk to Champions League clubs in future transfer windows.
He want's to **** off the Northern Irish twart. ****ing ****er. And no Nags, I'm not pissed so nag rep me as much as you like Sammy tit sucker.
Has the Mig been seen in a handbag lately? Only reason the dippers would want to snatch him for that amount of money. Cheeky twats...
if we were not in the bottom half dozen all season , his statement makes it clear he does not want that again, only one reason for that ,,,oneil, so i conclude its his fault.
