To al you na sayers calling oneil worse than rubbish because we haven't signed messi let me remind you sunderland is a stepping stone for players that are not happy were they are they come have a good season then go mon will bring players who want to play for him not sunderland he will get the player at the right price and the right time it don't matter who plays sat are you expecting a win wait till next month when he's got his player and got rid of clare baldwins ( steve bruces) crap then judge him most of rumours on here are kids on ther holidays with nothing better to do I agree commons would be a good player also if saha is signed why not bring lord quinn back as target man . Keep the faith its all good mon knows what he's doing

What on earth is all that about!! cripes.have a word with yourself. nobody is asking for messi. you forget it was oniell who PROMISED "QUALITY NOT QUANTITY" still waiting with 2 weeks of window left

So I just going to come out and say it ...... Oneil I'm not impressed at all mr short you wanted Europe well mate that means spending cash not freebies , to the Sunderland scouts you need to be sacked ,Saha is not the answer or even usefull back up he is injury prone and pants . We put all our eggs in one basket with fletcher why , all safc fans know we need strikers that are gunna score at least 15 goals so what the f(? K is going on

Saha is injury prone, but hardly pants.
Give the club a chance, there is still two weeks to go.
Most deals are completed in the last few days of the transfer window.
Stop being so negative,
If we dont sign anyone else before the window closes I will apologise, will you?
I somewhat doubt it.

Jeez.

Can anyone confirm saha has signed also would any one not fancey kris commons from on the wrong side of glasgow

Commons??? not even impressive in terrible league. if you cant get noticed up scotland then you really are pants

Agreed, Anthony Stokes is on fire up there and we all know how good he was when he was at the SOL.

15 Aug 2012 21:42:16
Saha looks pretty certain, now on SSN. Ya can't complain when he's on a free, would prefer another striker with Saha used as cover though !

Can complain mate this is crazy

Good signing saha will help the young lads at the club ie. Ji noble campbell wickham and oneill did say he wanted an experienced forward at the club for that reason.he will also give us another option against arsenal and another week to get other players in.

About the most sensible post on here mate we need someone with experiance to bring the young lads on dont think fletcher could offer much advice to noble ji or wickham

15 Aug 2012 21:08:48
We should go for el shawwary, welbeck, miccoli!

15 Aug 2012 20:49:52
sunderland should sign Jordon Rhodes scored tonight for scotland. 6 mill thats all huddersfield want and he only 22.

I'd do a swap him for wickham

Worth a punt better than wasting 15m on fletcher. rhodes will only get better

Id swap my gran for wickham

Blackburn only offered 2mill

Saha has finally left the hospice after struggling on his zimmer frame to come to the sol. Quality Mr. O'neil? Why make pathetic statements if you knew all along it was anyone and numbers you were after. Not happy. safc1973

Will you plz take the safc out of your name cos ppl mite think ur a sunderland supporter !!!!

Stop your moaning man and get behind them all

This lads an embarresment to sunderland all he does is twist and his rumours are crap just glad i dont have a season ticket next to him

Ya rite there mate im sick of hearing his whinging ! sess is a 1 season wonder . he doesnt rate mcgeady , fletcher . saha etc etc . i think hes dyslectic nd gets his letters mixed up i think his real name is nufc1973 !

Dyslexic ! sorry lol

15 Aug 2012 18:14:12
We should get Mario gotze on loan the german kid he's 19 yrs old he's class

Yeah why don't we get that young argentinian lad from barce too, messi I think he's called. Get a grip son

Some people are just so negative it's you that needs to get a grip mate

No its people like you who lose managers their jobs, O'Neill stands no chance what so ever if he is expected to be bringing in world class players that the top European clubs are after. I am Sunderland through and through but even I know players are gonna pick lots of clubs before us, so before you spout your mouth off take a step back into the real world pal. We are Sunderland, win or lose, love us or hate us.

Sunderland are signing louis Saha to take the pressure of the Steven fletcher saga and our striker problem (prin£y)

Wow. Is that the top signing. What happened to Llorente......

He will be arriving tomorrow for talks Saha and Lozza up front on Saturday get in

15 Aug 2012 14:27:00
Martin O'Neill talking with potential signing at the SOL said to be Louis Saha.

Hope so any truth in this ed? {Ed001's Note - I don't know mate sorry.}

15 Aug 2012 13:42:16
Mate at SOL for meeting says he has seen Martin O'Neill showing Louis Saha around.

15 Aug 2012 12:42:51
Sunderland will not buy any players this week. All press talk at present. And all speculations.

Is that why Saha is having a medical right now? Hmmm

my predictions foe next season
out of both cups in the first games we play in them and 15 in prem league. this being because we finished 13 last year and we have a WEAKER squad now while all teams around and below are getting STRONGER. thats a fact by the way not an opinion

Give us a list of the players signed by clubs around us last season everton stoke fulham norwich swansea aston villa to name a few i am curious to see how they have strengthened their squads mate and then i might get worried

15 Aug 2012 08:55:29
We have known for 18 months that we need a striker and the best weve got is paying 7 m over the odds for fletcher? Time tomsack the scouts and bring in new ones. What the hell have they been doing for a YEAR AND A HALF

Same opinion mate

14 Aug 2012 22:46:03
If we do sign fletcher i will be at the sol on the 25th august cheering him on! If mon believes hes the man to do the job the who the hell are any of us to argue? People saying he is clueless are so far from the truth! He is no mug thats why we havent signed anyone for money yet unlike keane who wasted loads. Remember tore andre flo and marcus stewart? Panic buys! Mon knows who he wants and if he cant get him then im happy he isnt going to waste the money just for the sake of it. It may take years but i believe in mon and ellis short and a few fickle fans should remember what there saying now when we are pushing for europe in 5 years time max! Keep the faith lads! Would love to see us sign emilio izzaguire from celtic please mon go and sign him! Also heard a rumour from my mate who is in the development squad that we have approached micheal owen and he is considering us aswell as other offers! He wouldnt lie about it so thought i would share it with fellow mackems. How would fans feel about him?

Cheers ed

Dave the mackem

I dont think Owen would put the effort in

Owen will always score goals. I'd have him on a pay as you play deal.

Marcus stewart did well for us you cant compare him to flo

Owen has been overpaid and crap since he was 20 was a one trick pony doesn't even have that now

What a load of old codswallop mate. Wont offer stupid money? 15m for average striker is stupid my friend.how can we be in europe in 5 years if we cant sign decent players? Please think about what you are saying. Wow michael owen he will get us 5 goals next season while spending most of it on injury table and training horses. One MASSIVE struggle ahead

I would like Owen at the club any chance he gets he will put it away

He wud be reading the racing post during training,so no do not want him at all.tk73

Yes he has a good goalscoring record when he's not on the treament table. Also he's more interested in his horses now.
