I hate to sound so moneyball but we don’t necessarily need to replace jobe’s physicality in an individual player. A big powerful centre half, powerful fast right winger, and a 6 foot centre mid would be class. At left back too given that despite how much I rate cirkin, we’ve never been able to rely upon him for every game in a season. Plus a striker with physical presence to complement mayenda and Isidor.
Think Joe Gomez is a bad one for me. Well beyond our level but too expensive, too injury prone and likely on a downwards trajectory now. It's the sort of signing we would have made years ago and it never used to work out.
Just seen Randy Orton put a picture of Mayenda doing his pose up on Instagram. Sunderland are going to be big amongst American wrestling fans. How weird.
Got a message this morning from someone who gets some info every so often (has been right with a few things in the past) Sounds like Henderson is likely to sign, approx 50k a week. We are after Roony Bardghji, RM, and some 6'6 French lad but no names were given for that one. I've asked about the French lad to see if I can get more, there's a young CB Toure that i watched a couple years ago that is about that size so could be him
Aye that's the one, I actually watched him in a youth game with Ba. The lad Richardson who was mentioned on here isn't far off that so could be him.
Kld has liked a post from skysports on instagram saying fee for jobe is wxpected to be around £25 million so god nars about the fee

Guessing the name of the 6ft 6 French player, I've messaged my mate back to see if he's been given a name or position for that player
Is he any good? I’m sure I remember someone posting a youth game of ba on here and there being a giant at the back so assume that was him, I couldn’t take my eyes off him, like I was watching Godzilla
He was very raw the games I watched, didn't massively stand out ability wise. Not watched him much last couple seasons though so not sure how he's kicked on.
