Liverpool want 14mil for Borini been link to loads of players Daniele Dessena and Giannis Maniatis. plus Banega not sure if its old news
1.) Banega is a very good playmaker, we were linked in January as well. Apparently Poyet will be watching him in the WC as he is one of the pundits so he'll see if if he's a good fit
2.) IS Borini worth £14 million? not so sure for a player Liverpool obviously don't want!. we should then ask the same money for both Johnson and Fletcher!
3.) It'll be 10m
29 May 2014 10:14:15
looks like we are in for Jordi Gomez from wigan
1.) Signed him, I wonder who we'll go for next.
12 Jan 2014 12:08:47
we looking at Jack Baldwin Hartlepool central defender, is any good?
1.) One for the future
12 Jan 2014 08:47:03
Think Mr Fletcher might be on he's way looking like a man whos got no fight seen this before with Mr BENT
1.) Dunno how people can say he's worth up to 10m
Lucky to get 6!
2.) Fletcher-Bent-Phillips-Gabbardini all hoyed the towel in when they wanted off
03 Jan 2014 08:07:20
Here we go again Sunderland are lining up a swoop for Argentine striker Ignacio Scocco lol
{Ed002's Note - The story about Ignacio Scocco is correct.}
1.) Can't see it happening. Not in form, club doesn't want to let him go. Couldn't see what he could add that we don't already have. Some of these development players need a chance like mavrias and karlsson playing on the wings to add some serious pace with Johnson or giaccherini on the other side depending on formation.
2.) Thats all nice and everything saying give mavrias and karlsson a chance and everything but think about it we're bottom of the league we can't afford to gamble on young ones at the minuite. a decent striker and experience will get us out of this

ED why do you think Moyes sticks with this 3 3 5 formation?
{Ed001's Note - maybe because there is no keeper to choose without Pickford? Sorry couldn't resist. Moyes is a very stubborn man which can be a good thing. If he can find a way to make it work he will. Problem is that I am not sure you have time to wait for it to start picking up results.}
1.) 23 Jan 2017 19:27:33
Just think the players we have even if rubbish, play to there strengths. 3-3-5 does not work, too many gaps on the field. no body likes to play 4-4 2,-but don't like losing every week.
2.) 24 Jan 2017 23:32:51
id Gamble on 4-4-2 at least against the teams around us . at least wed go down fighting . Moyes is a frightened over cautious man!
30 Oct 2016 11:39:08
Hi what a game we showed Arsenal lol nothing to say about the game I have seen 10 games this season all the same nothing will change over the season can't see Moyes getting the sack can't see us winning a game can't see the fans turning up every week for that . love this club but can't keep on paying to watch that and that's a lot of can't so that's it for me until Moyes is gone or the board we need to look at Wigan that's us how much will he's club be worth then?
1.) 30 Oct 2016 15:31:34
Im just amazed how patient the fans are in all this no protests against Short or Moyes? even the M. O. T. D pundits and Nial Quinn were scathing about the negative style of play Moyes has introduced into to our team. i'd rather put Stockdale and Welsh in charge at least well start to shoot and if you don't shoot you won't score goals! surely Short isn't going to allow Moyes to waste more money on hapless players in Janurary? Something HAS to change!
16 Oct 2016 14:52:58
Well lads think this is worst ever Premier League team I have seen MOYES is clueless this is the man who could not motorvate a Manchester United team, comes here and says this team is grap and will be relegated what a team talk lol well MR MOYES you will not get 10pts this season, we will be relegated and if you are the manager in the championship we will be relegated again we can all say he needs time and money and to bring he's own players in WELL he's bought Papy Djilobodji, Victor Anichebe, Donald Love and Paddy McNair. Steven Pienaar, Adnan Januzaj, Michael Simões, Javier Manquillo think these were good signings? who signed them? well that's all folks soon I hope.
{Ed001's Note - how has Manquillo got on? I know a few of you were critical of my assessment of him from when he played at Liverpool, I was wondering if he had proven me wrong?}
1.) 16 Oct 2016 19:25:39
Agree MR MACKEM, it looks as though the appointment of Moyes is going to be a very expensive mistake. The signings are shocking and he insists on playing his love child from Everton Rodwell, who would not get a game at most clubs. We are probably paying this man £2.5 million a year to embarrass us, and while I am on what the hell do we pay Bracewell for? Of course the players should take some of the blame, they are nearly all overpaid flops. Can anyone see us actually winning a game? Sorry to sound so down, but we must face the truth.
2.) 19 Oct 2016 11:52:41
The Moyes in/ out camp is probably 50/ 50 from what I've heard . my main problem with Moyes is his tactics! you play the top six! yes play one up front and crowd the midfield but playing the bottom teams at home we should play 4-4-2 and go for it! there's plenty of players who could fill the other strikers role like Khasri and Watmore (who plays there for England) WE are SO negative at times . and then there's Rodwell! because he's played with him he's obssesed with sticking with him when he should be thrown in the reserves . and left there! . and like lots of people WHY doesn't he play PVA in midfield as he can't defend! his signings have been poor! its going to be academic about Moyes anyway as if we continue to be so negative then we will lose games and he will be gone by Christmas .!
27 Sep 2016 07:47:12
Poor big Sam had 1 game and in trouble with FA well if you get sacked haha haha grass not always greener and that stuff lol.
1.) 28 Sep 2016 23:48:11
Its like the keystone cops with our team this season and the Big Sam England sacking just tops the lot! it so surreal! I just wonder what's going to happen next? I feel he was so niave to do what he did but he's not the first and won't be the last to be drawn by the gutter press! all that to get a story that will probably get the journalists an award! how sick is that!
2.) 29 Sep 2016 16:44:09
Sorry Bob, I don't point the finger at the "gutter press", but what I find sick is the sheer greed of these people like Allardice. How much money do they want for heavens sake? In my opinion we would never find out about these greedy sods without the press. These people have no shame, living the good life when some fans can't afford a ticket to a game, hope the press name the whole lot of them.
3.) 29 Sep 2016 20:05:52
Well Chris-s you could add half the sunderland team to that as they need to get down to earth and graft and start defending properly!
4.) 29 Sep 2016 23:08:14
Agree Bob, I have always thought that something is going on at this club and the players never seem to give 100%. I was meaning the pocketing of brown envelopes in general, by untrustworthy dishonest people whose greed is spoiling the game.
24 Sep 2016 17:10:59
Where are the back 4? Moyes you don't know what you are doing 2 up get beat 2/ 3 back 4 all. Over the place we are rubbish, we get rubbish refs we have a rubbish back 4 that's a hole lot of shit.
1.) 24 Sep 2016 18:23:24
Well here we go again! can't understand Moyes playing Papa! well yes I can he signed him and that's a weak manager persevering with a bad player HE signed! it was so so negative, I don't know what the answer is but Moyes HAS to take some responsibility for this negative display against a poor Palace side and as usual he's NOT!
2.) 25 Sep 2016 00:02:29
In regards to Moyes I do believe he is commitesd to the cause and I do believe papy has potential! The problem is Moyes makes to many managerial mistakes. Taking catts off instead of Jan! Jan was spent looked out on his feet. Januzaj looks like a lost boy who only plays when it suits him. Borinis work rate has been badly missed for us this season. I am a big supporter of staying positive and not making rash decisions. If we get rid of Moyes there is literally no one I can see doing a job for us. We can't continue the shortermism we have at this club as it is the root of the problem. I am despairing at this club but will support them never the less. FTM!
3.) 25 Sep 2016 20:19:46
I agree with you on Moyes as who would replace him? again as I stated his main fault is he won't drop players who are not in form paticully the ones who he signed as he would lose face to explain why he signed these players in the first place! its misplaced loyalty and this is causing us to lose points! mind I can't see him changing his mind over this and I think we are running out of lives! Short needs to come out and explain a few things!
4.) 27 Sep 2016 16:52:17
No body wants Moyes sacked! What we want is Moyes to watch a couple of videos and fix what's wrong with the back 4, Patrick van Aanhold is not a left back or a very bad 1 going forward great lacking in defence last 2 goals down to him.
23 Aug 2016 18:31:20
lol this must be a joke Yedlin , he's in newcastle now having a med that just tells us all we are penny pinching club its the same every season paper talk nothing else we never sign the players we link with the best is still to come yet lens sold on thursday, kone next then we sign some bloke from championship for a mil roll on this season top 10 lol.
12 Aug 2016 22:56:38
No mate player power is a FACT you look at all the players who try this it's all ways the same force a move me I would let him see he's contract out on the bench but that won't happen players will always win any way why would you want him? 16 games and he's the best player that's been here really lol.
09 Aug 2016 16:40:05
Like a lot of fans can't belive what we are doing kone off after 6 mths can't blame the big man for juming ship must think not worth sticking around for a season to end up like the mags well here we go again.
02 Jan 2016 09:50:24
But expected to stop in EPL? but the rate we are going the championship might be too much for us any way in the transfer window we don't compete.
{Ed002's Note - I don't understand your obsession of competing with Manchester United.}
01 Jan 2016 16:01:57
Ed its not about the rules the point I was trying to make was how do you compete? With the so called big clubs if they can spent that kind of money with the amount of income which they seem to generate so Ed how do you Compete?
{Ed002's Note - Sunderland are not expected to compete with Manchester United in the spending.}

No m8 we can't get the best because where we are in the world nothing to do about EPL place if we were in London players would be falling over them self's to play for us 43 plus crowds ever week that's why we need a good youth team try and get the best players while they are young only chance we have
That's hope Paul bracewell pushes for the kids to play that's the only way we will stop up anyway that's all get behind dick lol could be worse it could have been Denise wise
Think it will be a temp job so that's get behind the team now and the bloke who comes in 2 wins and a couple of draws should do it
