    Wigan bid £6m for this lad, where are our people with this one?
    Definitely a risk but no more than Altidore or Borini for that matter.

    Not sure mate they've come out and said he's not for sale as well so looks like he'll be going soon.

    They bought him for £8million, he has 31 goals in 48 games for them, why would they sell to A: a rival and B: for 2 million less than they bought him for.

    I cant even see 8-9 mil securing him, 13-15 million but thats too steep, but only because of what they paid for him in the first place.

    I never thought I'd see the day when Sunderland supporters are seriously saying,

    "Yeah, let's just take a SIX MILLION POUND punt on someone!"

    The next thing will be that the club isn't being run properly ............

    Why not? I was advocating buying this lad 2.5 years ago when we were looking for a Judas replacement. I think he has all the attributes to succeed and has scored goals at whatever level he has so far played at. Alongside the lad Charlie Austin at Burnley I think either of them are worth looking at.
