I would be keen on the McAteer deal personally. I have seen him a lot at youth level at Leicester. He had a really big reputation with them. I always liked his pace and his decision making as a young lad.

He has a lot of attributes I think Regis will love. He is quick for starters. He often appears into play from nowhere and defenders have simply not read it. He always has his head up. He will always look for that pass when he has it, keeping the thing moving really well. He would relish playing in the triangles Regis encourages. Defensively he grafts well. He is half decent in the air and takes some knocking about, he is a strong lad. He isnt a bad finisher either. He could be better in that sense, but he isnt a snatcher of chances by any means.

I get he hasnt set the premier league alight. But I dont think it is true he isnt good enough for the level. Leicester have been a basket case on the pitch this season, particularly since Van Nistelrooy landed.

Decent cover for Cirkin/Hume as well? Seen he was used as a fullback a few times in their U21's and Cup comps.
 
I reckon most winger links have been on basis of Watson leaving. McAteer possibly the exception as he seems right sided and that’s an area we’ve lacked depth previously as far as out and out wingers go at least. Danns looks a good deal.
wouldn’t be surprised to see a couple out of the blue though. We’re short at fullback and we often dip into the youngsters market for a development player.

Why? We’ve said all along ST and RW

Watson going just meant we needed an extra

one more
We’ve seen zero right wing leaks bar McAteer tbf and that article sounds like it was supposed to be a Watson replacement. Hope you’re right though

How long have you supported Sunderland mate to worry about media links

I don’t think we sign many that don’t come out in the media mate. Only ones with no links was Alese and Seelt

that said we could get a link soon and then sign them.
