sigurdsson to sign from spurs 6.3m but not in time to face fulham, rose an option but spurs need a new lb first, sunderland not prepared to wait much longer and have 2 other targets lined up

Yes i'd take Siggs but would love Rose here. even if it meant selling Sess to finiance it!. we don't need Hudds. Siggursson is far better!

Huddlestone is a totally different type of player to siggurdson

Siggs is a LOT more skillful and not injury prone!

But not a holding midfielder who can turn defence into attack quicky. I think flamini former arsenal midfielder would be a good fit pretty sure he is still at ac milan

At Swansea Sigs played as their playmaker and excelled.

Yeah I agree sigs is a brilliant playmaker but he has no defensive attributes we need someone in the midfield to protect the back four and be able to pick the pass to change us from defending to attacking as quickly as possible now in terms of British players who fit that mould the list is very short and the two best that would fitted our budget have pretty much gone in Huddleston and parker

{Ed024's Note - Parker is past it, Huddlestone can do a job but was way over priced.}

Which part of ENGLISH playmaker don't you get?

Will Hughes looks like he would be a good addition and his wages can't be high

Totally agree ed but pdc has said English and I'm struggling to think of any I like will Hughes but don't know if he's ready to make the jump up yet

Hudds can't move quickly from defence to attack!. my granny can run faster than him!

good to see josy bang in a hatrick tonight, just what he needs for sat

Bet that shuts up the knockers!

I reckon sebs behind big jozy for freekicks after that cracker, and the barcodes will still knock him either saying they were flukes and look at the opposition, well I think he's worth a tenner for first goal on saturday, haway the lads. tk73

Seen the video of the goals all crackers paticullay the curling free kick with the 2nd. yes think we have another option at free kicks along with Johnno Gatts and Larsson!

Well Bosnia had Dzeko playing up front for them!

Bosnia are also ranked 13th in the world, 1 ABOVE England and the USA are only ranked number 19. So they are obviously a very strong team.

And there goaly Bezovic is a excellent keeper!

Great hatrick from Altidore for the U. S. A , same thing again on Saturday Josie!

I hope all these fans on here with all the talk have actually got there ticket for the game saturday. If not then you got 2 days, can't pretend to breath Red and White and not show the commitment. We're one of the cheapest season tickets in the league, no excuses if your local to the area. I live in Kent and I've got mine.

Personally I find your post a little "up your own ar$e" lots of people are unemployed and can't afford it! I live abroad and certainly can't afford to come home every week, that does'nt mean I don't support them

What if you breathe red and white but you can not afford 1 game, never mind a season ticket, stupid post, thousands can not afford it, but you say they pretend to love Sunderland, think again. Chris-s.

Got mine, can't wait.

I'm there Saturday, but this is a really silly post.

Pffft buzzn coz yav got a tiket

Probably a kid buzzin because he gets to got his first game
Think before you say things next time pal

I'm 15, quite difficult to make money to buy a season ticket. I would if I could but I can't so I go to the odd game I can afford.

Huddlestone off to hull, who's next for the rumour mill any idea's.

Fatem Ben Arfa

I think we should try and get Will Hughes from derby

Fatem ben arfa lol, and pratdiou said they have trained harder, aye jogging to burger king. tk73

Go on call him all you want, he's still got more skill than all your second rate signings put together. let's just wait and see what happens shall we. You lot are so deluded.

ed any truth in the Osvaldo rumours and cissoko move close

{Ed024's Note - Not hearing anything on the Osvaldo rumours, but Cissoko is a an option - not sure what put Liverpool off ????}

I hope the clubs medical team got the Peruzzi knee injury assessed correctly!

Now confirmed on tv that he has signed for Serie A Team Calcio Catania for 3 Million Euro

Really hope this does not come back to bite us as Celustka is 3 year older and only on loan!

Spare a thought for Sheffield united, they nearly signed Maradona in 1978, agreed a fee for 200k, he agreed to join, manager wanted him, board wouldn't stump up more than 160k. Oooops.

So I wouldn't worry too much about peruzzi.

Mike ocksmall.

Ive heard peruzzi will be out for a while with injury so well donr di canio

Agree with that as I thought we should have taken a risk!. this has happened before. Austen failed a medical with Hull yet he's still playing regular football with his club!? explain that!

Mind this Chech is a good player!and more use dto playing in the european theetre. remember. Angelini?

Sheffield utd Maradona?. wasnt Madonna was it? lol

Ed see on sky Huddleston is due a medical at hull, heard anything, if so who do think we'll get or are we relying on cattermole?

{Ed024's Note - I'm hearing we are making a late bid for Huddlestone - hope the info is incorrect - over £5m !!!!!!!!!! Surely not Paulo}

Peruzzi has played in both opening games with his former team 2 from 2

Mr Ocksmall, funny how your surname has changed spelling since you were talking about Jerry Atrics the otha day. It was spelt Ocsmall then. Dear dear, can't even spell your own name!!.

Without the system we have now on attitude, fitness and well being we might've started our first game with Peruzzi, Huddlestone, Cattermole, and Wes brown, just one hard game and we could've had four players crocked why take chances when we can sign the right player to do the job?

My name is Mike Ocksmall but actually mike ocksbig if you know what I mean, but I wrote Mike Ocsmall as a typo? It happens especially on this very expensive I pad that I used which I paid for in cash, I actually bought 16 one for every room in my house can't be bothered to carry one around.

{Ed024's Note - I understand the initail explanation but the bit about the rooms in the house has lost me ???}

Simples darling, I was accused of spelling my name wrong I was also accused of cottaging with an mp but that's a different story not linked to this one, anyway I didn't spell my name wrong it was a typo, a typo because I have an expensive Ipad and they can be awkward. I own 16 of them I have one in every room in my house because I don't want to be carrying one around with me my hands are occupied.

Mike OCKSMALL

{Ed024's Note - Darling.............????..........Ok............can you wash your hands and lets get back to the football banter ?}

Wash my hands? Yes please let's get back to Football.

Original point. don't worry about Peruzzi, or anyone else that slips the net. Paolo will get the left back, midfielder, possible winger and /or striker that we need.

We have an unlucky history with injuries, I haven't got time for peruzzi.

Calutska seem an interesting personality, he tweeted me asking me to renew my season ticket, he's seem good craic and a bit of a Nutter, passionate and showing general interest in the club, city, people. He will be a fan favourite.

Mike Ocksmall

{Ed024's Note - HE seemed a bit of a nutter ?????}

15 Aug 2013 09:07:34
He does seem a nutter, he's following me on twitter we have a lot in common. Me him and dicanio would get on great like marra.

Mike Ocksmall.

Is it true cissohko has agreed terms with us and it's just upto the clubs to strike a deal? Safc93

Yes, it's true

Other clubs are looking at him though Bekistas one of then. he won't sign till the fat lady sings!

apparently stoke have tabled a £3mill bid for connor whickam, do we or don't we?. tk73

Scored a class goal tnite

He isn't getting a chance, either play him and let him show his worth or send him on Loan

Ridiculous £3million. i'd keep him but if selling at least £6 million plus a sell on fee!

He hasn't been given a fair chance, surely we need to send him out on loan so he can develop instead of cutting our ties and taking a huge loss on him.

Cant jump off the ground and no pace can't break out of a jog

Let them have him for 3 million. And if he keeps them in the Premier we want another 6 mill

Totally agree with last comments, plus for a big lad. He is easily shoved of the ball.

For me, we don't sell but we do get him out on loan to play some football all season.

After that, he'll be nearly 21 and we make a call on what we do with him.

I still think he has the making of a very good player but he's not going to fulfil his potential sitting on the bench for the next 10 months.

How long has he got left on contract

As bad a buy as torre andre flo would take 3mill with a sell on clause but that won't amount to much I would reckon he would have been on more than mclean and he took a wage cut to go to wigan so I would be glad to see wickham off the wage bill.

Think he signed a four year deal so if he goes out on loan he'll no doubt be sold next summer.

Wtf you all talking about selling Wickham for, how much game time has he had for us, not enough ten minutes here and five minutes there, he needs to play regular, he knocks them in for fun for the under 21's hope he gets the chance this season for us and prove the doubters wrong.

Offered 9m for Pablo Osvaldo!
Class!

Fulham have we havent. tk73

I heard that Roma wanted around double that for him about €18 mill

Southampton offering 8mill

Think that's Southampton you're thinking of
