    Liverpool fan here.

    Very good deal for you guys - Borini is a very, very intelligent player. His movement in the box can be sensational at times, with the game time he'll be a huge asset for you guys. Can hit an amazing free kick too.

    Good for us too as he should get regular football. As currently Suarez, Sturridge and Aspas are ahead of him in the pecking order, he was never going to get a look in this season.


    All round good business <ok>

    Good to know mate reckon he'll get a fair bit of game time with us bleeding Fletcher back in and Altidore crocked sounds better the more I hear about him.

    Hello mate

    Its hard to say at the moment. Last year he was largely poor, with his first touch and finishing particularly off key.

    However, he never got a real chance with us because he was injured/ was recovering/ getting constantly slated by us and the media which affected his confidence.

    End of last he came back, looked good, scored against Newcastle <ok> <ok> <ok> and then over the summer he has played well and scored a few for Italy's under 21s and he is very highly rated by them and they're not stupid.

    I have my doubts with his for us but I would have like us to let his have a chance to prove himself.

    He might well get that with you.

    Basically he might be a really good team player and score 10-13, or he will shrink into his shell if he gets slated for a mistake.

    Definitely worth a punt on loan <ok>

    He's young with bags of potential - played at every level upto the u21's for the Italian international team. I think he may of played (or been in the squad) for the first team also.

    I think you'll all be quite surprised how good he could be with regular football. His start at Liverpool was hampered by a serious injury, but I'm happy we have only leant him to you, due to him having the potential to be a very good player.

    He could do with bulking up a bit though and working on the physical side of the game.

    Your boss and his public way of dealing with his players.

    Borini is a 'arm round him' sort of player not shouting, especially not in public.

    But you're just guessing ...... you've actually no idea how he is with players in private.

    He may be 'putting his arm around the players' non stop.

    Perhaps. But we do know (not guessing) is he does slate his players publically and i'm not sure how Borini will react to that if he's in the firing line.

    Slate them ......... did you read that in the Sun?

    He pointed out that O'Shea made a bad error, the player said he made a bad error and everyone on the planet knew it was a bad error.

    Slating????????????

    I believe after reading these columns is what Sunderland are lacking is supporters I have never come across such a bunch of negative winging no all's in my life Manchester united would struggle with this kind of support OK bring on all of your pathetic excuses I will not be reading them suggest you move a few miles north where you will fit in very well
