Isn’t he playing every game for Frankfurt more or less?

French so may as well get the scarf out…
He’s featured 9 times with only 1 start and recently joined from angers

me and scout both liked him but I said I thought he was out of reach but after le fee I take that back

Pal of mine reckons we ‘in for a Bundesliga winger’

Vague I know but of interest.

Me and him been speculating (and it really is speculation…) and we have landed on….

Le Fee in
Jobe to Dortmund
Duranville to Sunderland.

I repeat; we have speculated this but he reckons the winger bit is solid.

The speculated part is incredibly well thought out we reckon <laugh>

Gio Reyna :huh:
 
Genuinely thought Gio Reyna signed for Forest last January, can’t be arsed to look but guessing that was a loan with obligation that they didn’t take up?

he was supposed to be the next big thing, hasn’t really kicked on and as we are the European home for wonderkid refugees then I say bring him home.
 
Slightly different for me, mate. I've met and know quite a few who are ok most of the time, but periodically the mask slips when they forget. Generally it happens on social media, but sometimes face to face, mostly playing up to other mags. I often think it's because deep down inside they're very insecure and jealous, they're terrified that they'll get shunned (or walloped) if they show their true colours that they hide behind a mask of civility until they think they're safe to drop it (online or with a crowd of them).

The best example I can give is several years ago I used to know, very slightly through work, Mick Martin of True Faith fanzine. Face to face he was polite and came across as a mag but ok about us and you'd genuinely think he was ok as a mag. But, once you saw his twitter stuff and the ****e he'd come out with you saw the real bloke. At first I thought he was just playing to the crowd, but I worked out that that's really him and what I'd seen before was an act. Once he didn't have to put on an act he dropped into showing us what a twat he really is.
I work with plenty of mags, the south Tyneside ones are generally not too bad, almost to a man the rest are absolute weapons.
 
2 jump out for me for different reasons

Was buzzing when we signed Ballard, been a huge fan of his for a few yrs before joining us

The other one is Sessegnon, I remember seeing him for PSG vs Arsenal in a preseason friendly and thought wow what a talent. Couldn't believe it when we signed him, loved watching him play
Sessengnon definitely didn’t disappoint

some of my favourite flair players were

sessengnon
Amad
Steed Malbranque

hopefully be adding Le Fee to this list !

This ELF signing has really annoyed me btw.

I've spent all season thinking playoffs will do. Which has massively softened the emotional blows when we've lost or drawn games we should be winning. It's been great for keeping me on an equilibrium.

Now I want us to do it so bad. This ELF signing has tipped me over an edge I didn't want to cross :D
Exactly the same here!

By Dominic Shaw

REGIS Le Bris has outlined why he believes Enzo Le Fee is an ideal fit for Sunderland, as the midfielder puts the finishing touches to his sensational move from Roma….

He said: "I can't say anything right now because it's not done.

"This market in particular we spoke a lot about opportunities we could have and the targets are still the same.

"We would like to have a player who knows the system and used to play in this model and are connected with this specific identity. This player could fit with that. But I repeat it's not done.

"It's a market with many opportunities, some are possible, some are not."

Versatile Le Fee is comfortable playing in several midfield roles.

"He used to play as a 10, eight, sometimes as a six in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3," said Le Bris, who insisted he "didn't know" whether the deal would be finalised in time for Le Fee to potentially feature against Stoke City in the FA Cup on Saturday afternoon.

The capture of Le Fee is a major coup for the Black Cats. Le Fee joined Roma in the summer in deal reportedly worth €23m having previously impressed in France.

Le Fee has struggled to establish himself in Italy and didn't feature in the plans of Roma boss Claudio Ranieri.

You could see his face light up when Le Fee was mentioned, feels very similar to Amad and Mowbray, hopefully we reap the same rewards, really excited about this one
 
I feel Rigg needs help and Fee will play in that position. Rigg has been the weakest of our midfielders and I think a bit rotation is needed.
100% mate we can’t expect a 17 year old to play every minute every week, midfields so key to how we play buzzing we have quality options to rotate now samed is back, liked the little bits I’ve seen of aleksic too but not sure he’s a starter just yet

From what I've been told he is available but it would be a loan move, not sure it is him mind. I just mentioned him to @MadMackem77 as I had been scouting him recently

Will we need to be wary on loans now? Only 5 in a matchday squad isn’t it? Mepham, Wilson, samed and le fee on loan already unless ive missed one

Yep only 5, I don't want another loan but I reckon we will bring 1 more loan in

I don't really like more than 3, as if we don't go up you have to then replace them all

Hull had many issues in the summer but the biggest was they lost 5 quality loan players who went back to their parent clubs

The flip of course is if you get promoted you have space to sign better players than you have contracted to you
