FWIW the way Evans played on Saturday I wouldn't be guaranteeing anybody any game time. Any loan or transfer that requires that can move on to the next one. Everyone should be fighting for their place.

No harm in players or clubs insisting on it. its their careers. but we shouldn't be guaranteeing it unless we can.

It’s not evans that’s the issue…
 
I asked that Brad Jones lad who he writes or reports for 4 times on Twitter and then he blocked me. Surprisingly he never answered. Probably reading this as he makes up his next rumour. State of Twitter sadly

I’ve just had a quick look through his tweets there and I’d be surprised if he’s just getting info from the forums, he mentioned Sissako from Liege turning us down and a few Sunderland pages retweeted it. Can’t remember seeing anything about that on here or over the road other than after he’d posted. Probably does pick stuff up from hearsay but I think he knows more than the average joe. He posted 2 weeks ago about Churlinev to Burnley who flew in for a medical yesterday iirc and Strand-Larsen going to Boro which is close now.
 
I disagree that you can blame any of the goals or passages of play on Evans. He was motm in a lot of people's eyes. Others faded and made poor decisions in the final stages
I didn't blame hime for anything. Just commented that we need someone to give him a rest as he and a few others are clearly struggling with the pace of this league for 90mins. He was excellent on Saturday but tired. I'd not hold that against him but we certainly need to do something about it
The problem is depth more than personnel

Good to hear, I misunderstood your comment and I agree we need cover or improvement for Evans

He’s a professional footballer, I’m sure he can see out 90 minutes of football.. having a better, more energetic midfielder alongside him when we’re only playing with 2 in the middle would resolve that issue.
 
That Jewison Bennette is randomly following Max Thompson from our under 21s.

Could mean nowt like.

The news about Churlinov to Burnley broke at the end of July. He's obviously picked it up then. Strand-Larsen to Middlesbrough has also been doing the rounds since July.

There's only him that's mentioned Sissako. He could have made that up himself.

I'm not convinced. He's no Prehab.

The very first mention of Churlinov to Burnley was only a day before he posted something about it, he must be sh*t hot with hunches… :emoticon-0102-bigsm I’m taking him with a pinch of salt but judging off the tweets he’s got right and how early they’re posted he knars more than most of the wallies on Twitter and the boards
