    Come on lads positive thinking only please we've been waiting weeks,for this.
    Just be happy we've got one in, he's at a good age can play in two positions so he's good for cover.
    Let's,hope this is,the first of a few.

    Has anybody seen his interview?

    He doesn't seem to know much about the club or why he's signed <laugh>

    Just watched it or at least the first half which was as much as I could manage. I hope he gets his frontal lobotomy reversed before he gets on the pitch.

    A lot of people are saying this but when he signed for Chelsea he was in the last year of his contract so they got the most they could at the time

    Aye that's true enough. He might barely remember the name of the club he's signed for now but he'll know what we're all about soon enough.

    Moyes mentioned in an interview a few days ago about talks with someone. I wonder if this was the lad he was on about.

    He`s a big bugger mind.

    He is and that physicality is something we've been missing for years. I often thought when looking at both teams that all our players look about a foot smaller than theirs, and if they are tall like O'Shea then they're slow and weak. Seems we're moving on from that.

    See Santon failed a medical at West Ham. Pleased we pulled out of that transfer at an earlier stage! Saved us money on a medical anyway.

    Steven Pienaar remains on trial at Sunderland - but the club won't be signing Charles N'Zogbia. N'Zogbia has been on trial since the start of pre-season but David Moyes won't be adding him to his squad on a permanent basis. The midfielder made just two appearances for relegated Aston Villa last season as he wound down the final months of his estimated £50,000-a-week wages at Villa Park. He failed to do enough during his pre-season friendly appearances to win a deal at the Stadium of Light. Assistant manager Paul Bracewell confirmed N'Zogbia won't be joining Sunderland but said former Everton midfielder Pienaar remains on trial.
