There’s probably some context to that, struggling teams rarely gamble on young lads unless they are superstars
Speculation we were in for this guy £1.5m. He's not with his team mates at the moment. He's back next week from duty.

I really think he has a great future.
Amad did nothing at Utd then came to Sunderland and did nothing ...
... then it all changed.
Hemir needs to find a nasty streak and I'm not sure it's there.

Wow, we’d have a heart attack if Sunderland done that all of a sudden!You must log in or register to see media

I don't think Kenwynne (spelling) Jones had a nasty streak but did ok for us. I agree he needs to use his strength but as others have said I believe Mayenda is the better option
Well I've defended Speakman, with his emphasis on signing young players ...
,,, but I think he's gone too far this time.
Here's the official video introducing him to the fans.

Wants to stop pissing about with the guitar and get it fed
Quite right mate, he's just stringing it along ....
... but don't fret about it too much.
Seems to be just a question of who's paying the most ...
... it's no one's dream to play for Chris Wilder.
They’re fully with the first team as of latest yesterday.
It's not much to go on, but I remember the footage of Hemir from before he signed and the two things that stood out were that he knew how to use his physique to his advantage and he has an absolute rocket of a shot.
I don't think he's a stranger to the physical side of the game he's probably just had a bit of a weird and unsettled first season. Not the only one either.
It's hard to imagine what kind of life the kid has had ...
... if he was your son you'd be hoping the supporters of his club were all behind him and hoping he succeeds ...
... sadly I'm not sure that's always the case.
You could take ten kids, move them to another country at the age of 19 and they'll all have a completely different experience. Being good at football has nothing to do with it, if you're not happy you're not happy.
I'm looking forward to seeing what Reggie does with the young foreign lads, I think they're in really good hands.
Too long a story to explain but, when I first went to work in the south of France, I was at my peak and learnt the language double quick because I had a mean streak and never wanted to have to back down to anyone French who was speaking English.
But I welcomed a stream of British Uni graduates coming down to work as holiday reps so they could finish off their language skills. I was an ex-bouncer from a Durham pit village and they were considerably better educated and more intelligent than me. But some really couldn't cope with being away from home, dealing with awkward situations and handling people who meant them harm.
I'd step in to help them but would sometimes end up calling their parents and asking them to plan a 'surprise holiday' so they could comfort and guide their kids.
I always try to help young adults, out of their comfort zones, even though they're reluctant to accept that's the case.
I'm confident our club is looking after these kids and hope the supporters actually support them as if they were their own.

I think people are a little naive as to what it takes to move abroad, especially at such a young age. You are not going to be giving it 100% if you are down and depressed for whatever reason.
I moved to Brazil when I was 13 with the parents and it was a huge shock. I was alright at school here in the UK but bloody awful in the private educated system with the offspring of millionaires. I didn't really connect with anyone in school enough to socialise outside of school, nobody of my age in our apartment block. I ended up moving back at 16 having lost all connection to my old mates and having to resit my GCSE's.
