That's what I'm hoping we see. I have some bitter memories of matches in which we defended really well,only to concede late on. At some point in the ebb and flow of the match we have to score.
We will come onto it eventually but RLB has said he wants the next two weeks to see if Ahmed can step up to a good level. I assume we will start working on it again after that
 
It could just be my impression,which is probably wrong,that,on here, we seem to be focussing on defenders,goalies and combative midfielders. Have we lost the striker desire, and suggesting,with the support we've added, Wilson,Elizer and Ahmed are enough?
I wonder if we have loan options in mind. They may only become realistic later in the window when other teams have settled their squads? Whilst judging players in early pre-season games is never sensible I did think Abdullahi showed some promising signs. He made some lovely runs off the shoulder, really well timed. He looked to get into good positions and on one or two occasions he and Mayenda rotated well I thought. It will be interesting to see how he gets on against better opposition as pre-season progresses and most likely a loan out will be on the cards, but he may well earn a squad place.
 
Winning a league title in your own country is significant.

That’s just plain facts.

And why disregard the 2 FA Cup, Bundesliga and Pokal?

He won them later in his career, sure. While Jordan was in Saudi then Holland winning nowt.

Really odd arguments these as I’ll repeat for the 312th time.

‘we want to sign the one that is most valuable to us now’

Because domestic trophies aren’t really all that? I’m sure JH won a few of those, nowhere near comparable to winning the PL or CL though. If we’re just going off numbers alone Scott Carson has won 14 trophies without kicking a ball so he’s had a better career than Salah.. not the best example mind he’s got 4 premier league titles and a CL :emoticon-0102-bigsm

the translation of the article does say it expects Sunderland to return with a higher offer

although I’m not sure how much a Roma fan site would know. Feels a bit Turkish media-y to me
Yeah I agree

I don’t believe they’d have the details of our bid.

I also don’t think we’d seriously low ball

Reactions: Robertson
Their fans lost their minds over Jobe and saying Jack was better thus worth more

I think Coventry are in for a massive shock this season. They had a decent run at a time when teams like Boro, West Brom, Norwich, Blackburn, etc, all had meltdowns. The 3-0 win, over Sunderland, completely fooled them into believing they were bound for the Premier League. They still clearly believe they were somehow cheated out of the playoffs despite barely having a decent shot.

One said yesterday that Sunderland only have one decent player and need 10 new starters to avoid the lowest ever points total ...

... they're even blasé about their lack of signings because they believe the team is already good enough!

They're a club I hate with a passion and I really hope it goes tits up for them this season.
