Sunderland fans are having a great time feeling the players are choosing them over us, they might be, more likely we have several options and we’re not willing to pay over the odds.
I wasn’t convinced about Sidiki and I wasn’t totally sold on Habib either, I had to Google/Wiki each
The danger is you slowly get beaten to all the targets and waste an entire transfer window or end up with 3rd and 4th choices
Sunderland are doing what I thought we’d do, get the bigger fee players in swiftly before others start sniffing
The only annoying aspect is we’ve had long enough to know what the fees would be, if we disagreed with it the interest should have stopped there and then and not waste any further time
