I noticed Leicester are flogging st ledger to Ipswich. I just wonder if they aren't planning one more attempt at getting Chester.

I hope they do. It would be a good laugh to see Nigel Pearson humiliated for a 2nd time in less than a week.

i think the wing back formation has been extremely refreshing. until cairney was savaged on tuesday, we played some great football and donny never had a kick.

bruce certainly isnt the one trick pony that pearson and barmby were.

Nope. Steve Bruce has plans A B and C at least. I likie the 3 - 5 - 2 formation and with Rosie and Dudgeon we can play it. If Dawson plays then it will have to be 4-4-2.

chester's value is now way above what even leicestan can afford. he wil go to the prem or nothing
i hope he is still with us to play on saturday

Dont see anything happening on this as the only clubs with the money are looking at bigger players now.

Seems a bit harsh - what has he done?

Held fully responsible for the 2-4 home cup defeat by Burton Albion.
 
Cheers for the heads up.

Bruce may just play him Right wing and move Aluko over to the left, Bit of competition for the wing places now.

Quite a few Sunderland fans dont rate elmo what are his weaknesses?

He's just not better than what we have tbf to him, still made a fair few appearances last season though, he's got quality and potential and is an international, you've loaned some quality there mate, if you get meyler aswel which is being mooted, then your talking, class player, been very unlucky with a double cruciate injury.
 
Alright lads, safc fan here, elmo will be class in the championship for you, he's quick, can bamboozle defenders, decent crosser and loves to get forward, more of a wb. He will terrorise full backs for you no doubt.

Good luck for the season, keep faith in brucey, if you dont make at least the playoffs i will be very suprised

Nice to have a sensible balanced view at last, thanks for the information. MON will do a good job for you no doubt. Good luck for the coming season.<ok>
 
Is Elmo fit to play on Saturday? If so, can see him fitting in a midfield of:

-----Evans - Koren ------
-Elmo----Aluko----Stewart-

Cheers! All the best! I really hope bruce does well and i'm certain he will, he took us to the next level after keane and i for 1 am very greatfull for what he did.
 
I've heard mention of Nick Powell on loan, but that's about it.

I suspect there's at least one name that hasn't even been mentioned yet.

And it looks like any deal for Meyler won't be completed before the deadline, so would be a three month loan up to Christmas.

what happened to the moussi rumours?
 
He's ****ing ****e, and always has been. I've been vindicated after my attempts to tell their fans as much when they signed him.

If he was brilliant and had all the attributes of a top class winger he wouldn't be at either Hull City in the championship or playing for mid table Sunderland. Players of both clubs will have some floors to their game. Let's give him a chance.
 
I like 3-5-2 and have done for ages (I mentioned it a long time ago).

However, I don't like the idea of losing Rosenior or Dudgeon if we are to play proper wing backs.

So is it:

Amos

Rosenior, Chester, Faye, Dudegeon

Stewart, Koren, Evans Elmo

Simpson Aluko

or

Amos
Bruce Faye Chester
Elmo Oli Koren Evans Aluko
Proschwitz Simpson

??????????

Dudgeon is a classic left wing back. unfortunately rosenior isnt! i fear for rose's longer term future. leicester before saturday anyone?

SB said in the sports bulletin that he prefers Cam on the left so swap those two around and it would be good <ok>
 
Amos

Rosenoir - Chester - Faye - Dudgeon

Elmo Evans Koren Aluko

Simpson McLean

would be my starting XI on saturday.

Elmo and Rosie in tandem on the right with Dudg and Aluko on the left. Perfect.

3-5-2 looks to be an away formation with 4-4-2 at home.

Bruce is hardly likely to let our only right full back leave is he.?
 
As of now my team v Bolton would be:

Amos
Rosenior Chester Faye Dudgeon
Evans Olly
Elmo Koren Aluko
Simpson

Oxley McShane Stewart McLean Prossy Townsend Bruce

Do we actually have any other players with any pro experience?
