    He has been thus far for sure but I don't think it was a great place for a young player to be. Like I said, we'll see what Pardew can make of him.

    He's got ability but where he falls short he falls too short. He's rubbish, as we'll see.

    Johnny Evans for £8 million is a contender for me ... just hope they don't get drawn against MK Dons in any of the cups <laugh> ...

    Wickham has also looked **** so far for Palace. Borini scored 10 in 40 for us from left wing, happy with that. Happy with paying 7.75m, if it rises to 9.75m then he's obviously been worth it. Don't know why you seem to be against Sunderland so much. Comes across as an inferior complex, in all honesty.

    Jonny's a decent player. Rio, Vidic and the rest made him look better but he's no mug.

    ... is an inferior complex an inferior inferiority complex?

    Something like that presumably. Not sure what there is to be inferior about exactly.

    Just put Borini up as a possible example for the OP. Evans is another decent shout.

    I probably agree with Wickham, never rated him as high as others have n has never done a lot at Sunderland really. Seemed £2/3m too much.

    It is really way to early for this though...

    On paper I think it's probably Borini. Terribly over priced for somebody with a poor goal return.

    Jordan Ayew (the villa one) was over priced too.

    There's nothing in any of those stories that says anything other than Chelsea bid for him, were told he was not for sale then bought Pedro instead.
