    We`ll get a better idea when we see this new Djelibeybe lad in action.

    Predominately left footed.
    Kone and Kabul both right footed.
    So we realy needed a left side centre half.

    I like CB's being opposing footed, it gives better balance and generally covers your near posts better.

    Yeh that's a good point covering the near post is much easier with the correct footed player

    If your DM is savy enough to drop back when they split you've got yourself a well covered defence.

    Aye, which is why having Kirchhoff as our 'sitter' works really well as he's played CB many a time in any case.

    Sunderland are interested in signing Jeff Hendrick fromDerby County in the summer transfer window, according to The Mirror.

    It has been reported by the British newspaper that thePremier League outfit are monitoring the development on the future of the midfielder.

    According to The Mirror, Burnley are interested in securing the services of Hendrick this summer.

    It has been reported that the Clarets, who got promoted to the Premier League at the end of last season, have offered £7 million to Derby for the midfielder.

    Think it will be just short of that. We need a right back and I reckon we'll step it up this week.

    I'm hearing N'Zogbia and Pienaar have finished training with us. Not sure if that's true though.

    Vida was very, very good in the Euro's so I'm keen on that. Hendrick has been superb for Derby last couple years, and again had a great Euro's.

    Big step up though.

    Zog's been told we won't be signing him. No news on if we're signing Pienaar or not.

    • have not exactly been active in the transfer market so far this summer, only bringing in Papy Djilobodji from Chelsea.

    It is hoped that his signing will be the first of many under David Moyes, however, with reports in the Evening Chronicle suggesting that he could soon be joined at the Stadium of Light by Stefano Okaka.

    STEFANO OKAKA
    The experienced striker, who turns 27 tomorrow, may not be a household name on these shores, but he did have a loan spell at Fulham back in the second half of the 2009/10 campaign.

    Truth be told, he didn’t exactly set the world alight, scoring twice in 11 Premier League appearances for the Cottagers, though only three of these outings came from the start:

    STAKE RETURNED IF FIRST BET LOSES

    Two FA Cup appearances totalling 28 minutes also saw Okaka hit the target once, so a move to English football would not come as a complete culture shock to the Anderlecht man.

    Capped at international level by Italy, the powerful centre-forward would be looking to reproduce the sort of form he showed for Sampdoria in Serie A back in 2013/14 were he to secure a switch to Wearside:

    Nowt worse for morale when all your false hopes are built and shattered. Better in the long run if they're broken before they're built. I can only be pleasantly surprised now. ;)
