    Ellis's signature is missing from the bottom I think mate.....?

    :)

    On a serious note though, he rejected SAFC several times I think and even expressed his delight at rejecting the move last time. Are all the fans behind him?

    People change their minds though and he will be judged at the end of the season now that he is a formal player. You guys needed firepower and at the end of the day he knows your club.

    Serious question, forget current allegiances, which forward line optiobs wojld fsns prefer to have out of:

    Defoe, Borini, Toivonen, Fletcher
    OR
    Cisse, Mitro, Riviere, Toney

    Personally, for the sake of goals I would swap in a flash.

    Poor Perez and SDJ, you've sold them already :emoticon-0106-cryin Once you add in those two I'd take ours

    Essentially there is not much between Cisse and Defoe. SDJ is a better version of Toivonen. Mitrovic a better version of Fletcher. Perez a better version of Borini. Ok Riviere drags us back to them a bit.

    Fair point. Forgot about DeJong whdn I posted that (easily done <whistle>) and due to his work rate, I tend to think of Perez as midfield as he seem to be.everyehere and a bit if a utility player. But yes, if if were Cisse, Mitro, Perez, DeJong then I would stick. Riviere can go and join Shola for free, wherever hed is now.

    I've update my reasoning. I think that is fair on what I've seen. Sunderland look ok up front. M'Vila looks a proper player on what I'd seen before he went to Russia. I'm not sure they have that Cabaye type to run the game from midfield (M'Vila is basically a better version of Cattermole). Same problem as us. Then they have defensive issues - Van Aarholt looks a major problem. My mackem mates think he is absolutely terrible. They look average at best on the other side and centre half wise are sat with 3 injury prone centre backs who are prone to a gaffe and John O'Shea.

    We have similar issues if you ask me. I think perhaps we are just a little better in quality due to the likes of Mbemba, Gini, Janmaat, maybe Thauvin

    I like Gouffran, had a long chat with him after a Swans game a couple of seasons ago, really nice guy. Will be doing cartwheels around works car park if Willo ****s off!

    Just read that, it might be a better sale than Torres to Chelsea for £50mil. Just to get rid of Enrique and MAKE A PROFIT on him (cost £6mil)! At least Torres was a half decent striker.

    Can't see us selling Dummett, that leaves us with one Left back. Plus I'm sure he'd be one of our home grown allocated players (Require 8 players that have trained in England for more than 3 years before the age of 21). We don't have that many "home grown" players as it is, I can think of the following;

    Krul, Darlow, Taylor, Colback, Dummett, Willo, Vuckic, Elliott. Not included Aarons or Toney as they are under 21 and don't need to be registered to play in the EPL.


    In other news Jonas has signed with Deportivo La Coruna pending a medical, glad he's landed back on his feet.

    Expecting an upbeat post from Panthro shortly. Would also find it even more amusing if Pardew came in for Haidara - I dont think Thirty/Thirty would be able to deal with that!
