basically I was saying last night we arguably had too many left wingers and not enough players who can play right wing.

Not saying we’ve pulled out but with Talbi looking more like a left winger than a right winger, Lauriente was arguably the wrong profile
I’m with you now mate haha, you are probably right tbf, although I am convinced this is the player / agent making last minute demands and the club have told them to do one

Shouldn’t be flying him out until everything is properly secured and agreed imo
It happens though mate, anyway the national press haven’t broke anything so I’m wondering if this deal can still be sorted out, I’m convinced it’s the players camp moving goalposts last minute
 
Maybe we’ve got news from the surgeon that Mundle’s hamstring was in pretty goor nick and should make a quick recovery, and we’ve decided the money can be better spent meeting the Diakite asking price and on a right winger
Big risk to hedge your bets on Mundle coming back fine mind.

unless the club really realised Talbi is a left winger at his best and not a right winger <laugh>
 
The Echo understands that the club have opted not to pursue a deal for the 26-year-old after being unable to finalise an agreement with all parties. Laurienté had been a key attacking target for the Black Cats and after agreeing an initial £17.5 million fee with Sassuolo, the player had travelled to Portugal to undergo a medical and finalise a five-year deal. The Echounderstand that a decision has subsequently been made not to conclude a deal and that the club will now look to pursue other targets.
 
Be interesting to see how this gets spun by Romano given he had the plane pics. Who’s he gonna want to keep sweet? The agent or Sunderland? Might be a bit of a bumpy one for us in the short term. The fella is a paid shill but his reach is unmatched.
