A few rumours in Scotland that my man/boy, Lennon Miller, wants to go to Italy Como we're showing an interest in him and Udinese have had a big rejected this summer (and in Jan). Appartently he's really to fellow the path of some of the other Scottish lads that have gone out there
As a sitter who cuts passing lanes and when at his best, moves it quickly he does. That said, there are plenty of upgrades on Neil.
Whilst I wanted to us to get Hendo - More for what he would bring off the pitch than anything It was more of a case of us accommodating him rather than him fitting in with the clubs way of playing - feel he still can have an impact at Brentford But.. lets relegate him, they are one of the clubs that may find it difficult this year, new inexperienced head coach, Mbuemo away, Wissa wants away & Norgaard already gone
Not keen on Ramsdale given he is telling a relegated club he wants to leave and weakening their hand at the negotiation table. That kind of behaviour could work out poorly for us in 12 months time.
If Hendo hadn’t played or came from Sunderland how many people would want a 35 year old midfielder on a free who’s legs were going a couple years ago at Liverpool never mind now we were all critical of the Kyle Walker transfer (well most of us)
Reassuring that everyone needs to align on a signing. No favourites bought, RLB wants them,and if it doesn’t work out for a signing should be no acrimony. Sensible stuff from KLD. “Especially since Sunderland's recruitment process involves two Frenchmen, football director Florent Ghisolfi and coach Régis Le Bris, a Franco-Swiss (owner Kyril Louis-Dreyfus) and an English sports director Kristjaan Speakman. "We have to be all four aligned to validate an arrival," says Ghisolfi, whoseappointment was formalised last week.”
Will have to wait and see who we recruit in midfield before deciding whether we should have signed Henderson. The glass half full view is that we are targeting someone better. I’ve watched so many highlight reels of supposed Safc target players but one about Dan Neil popped up and wow. What a player. I think we forget how good he is. Will be warmly remembered in years to come.
