Kidding yourself. He has failed his medical.
Agree0

No he hasn't, keep up to date mate!
He went to go see a specialist after the problem was found, he is regarded as one of the best doctors in Europe, he said he was completely 100% fine, he can start playing immediately
He will sign after tournament

Man City have given Abdisalam Ibrahim a free transfer, he has been touted as the next viera, anyone think he's worth a punt
Believable0
Unbelievable0
How many players have been hailed as the "next Vierra"? If he's black, leggy and plays in midfield that seems to be all the resemblance needed!
Notwithstanding that though, he might be worth a look!

Sunderland have had talks with aly cissokho's representatives and matched he's wage demands, hopefully that's a lb sorted

He doesn't want to come here he wants to go to liverpool
Agree0
Disagree0
Not sure where he wants to go but I would think we would have a better chance than Liverpool as they only want him for cover where as he will be more or less guaranteed a start with us
Agree0
Disagree0
Mag alert saying he wants to go to liverpool
Agree0

Why always say its a mag when you like what you read? Even Ed has told you Liverpool wants him.

So does Ben Arfa.
Lol.

sunderland have began negotiations with cissokhos representatives and are thought to be willing to match his wage demands. its thought the deal is more advanced as has been reported. di canio stated "at the moment" we won't be signing Peruzzi. he is due for a further final medical examination when we return from honk kong and if all is well will still be signing. also expect a further two signings one of which will be a striker. apparently di canio has ordered the powers above to get insigne at all costs. don't shoot the messenger on insigne. it may not happen but I've a feeling di canio will get his man

ed do you know if there is any truth in the Peruzzi rumour mate as this statement allegedly made by pdc was made to the sunderland echo have read skys report on the issue and they are saying the same that the report came from the sunderland echo seems strange to me that pdc would release a statement to the echo and no one else

{Ed052's Note - Not really, its a local paper, so it makes sense. If that's what PDC has said, then that's what he's said}
23 Jul 2013 15:07:29
So, in true Championship Manager style, PDC appears to be willing to sell pretty much anyone in the squad. Looking at who has been mentioned as possible out-goings: Bardsley, Brown (retire if not able to make it), Colback, Vaughan, Cuellar, Cattermole, Larsson, N'Diaye, Gardner, Sessegnon, Ji, Wickham, McLean. have I forgotten anyone?
Obviously if any of these go, they will need replacing otherwise we are undoing the good work from early in the window in terms of bolstering our numbers.
If we can help reduce our wage bill by removing some of the high earners and replacing them with better and cheaper alternatives, then that sounds sensible. Assuming that to be the case, I wouldn't mind a few of these names leaving.
Agree with all of those crying out for full backs; I think we need three. I would prefer another out and out striker rather than a Sessegnon or Giaccherini filling in, although I suspect PDC has these in mind playing just behind the front man when away from home. I would like another defensive midfielder; maybe two if Cattermole and /or N'Diaye are on their way.
Thoughts?

Who could we target for a RB

Typical sunderland for the last 3 years we haven't had a proper l back andour righ back has been suspect now we have neither. CLASS EH!!!

I don't mind if we keep Bardsley, stupid thing he did in the Casino and had a poor season, but we all know what a player he can be for us

Does anyone think we could play James McClean at Left back? he has an awful right foot but its not as important back there and he has great stamina and can make a tackle. I'll be honest I slated him last year but I really feel he could do a good job for us further back the pitch
Believable0
Unbelievable0
Problem is if the attacking player cuts inside he has no chance because as you say his right foot is useless. Safc93
Agree0

With Giaccherini playing on the left and cutting in he wouldn't have to though, he could just play really direct and overlap going straight down the line

PDC says the Peruzzi deal is off?. other sources say its on . so what's going on!. its not an ideal situation. we are in Hong Kong with one fit striker no full backs! still. and how far is Fletcher away from a recall or even being fit for the start of the season?. loaning out Graham was premature!. we need a full squad up and running for the new season or we are going to struggle. a good measure of what we are about will be against Spurs on wednesday who played us off the park at the end of last season!

Unbelievable0
Things aren't so bonnie looking once you put the euphoria aside and look at the squad size and weaknesses at fullback and up front with ji joining fletch injured, my opinion is that dicanio may be a great coach still not sure tactically yet but he seems hell bent on surrounding himself with yes men only to feed his hungry ego
im still very unsure on how things will turn out

See what happens when they get back from Hong kong, sounds as though he could be coming to sign when the lads get back from hong kong but Paulo has been mis-quoted, I think he meant he won't be right this second but who knows

Di Canio has said we will not be signing Peruzzi due to fitness. He wants players who are ready to play not recovering from an injury. Also looks like we are in advanced talks with cissoko and are willing to meet his wage demands and the player is keen on a move to England. Liverpool are also intrested but have not yet made a deal with the club unlike Sunderland. Expect him to sign this week on loan with an Option to buy. The Greek lad will also sign this week leaving us the RB position to fill and maby another forward.

Funny then that all reports yesterday said he was signing. The injury was an old one from last season, which has'nt stopped him playing. Clarification on the injury was sought, and given the ok.
Agree0
Disagree0
Weird how the Greek lad is actually recovering from an injury at the moment and is not fully fit. Peruzzi played at the end of last season yet he is recovering from an injury

{Ed024's Note - Hearing PDC is saying he will not take a risk on Peruzzi - deal could be dead.}
