ed what do you think about the fernandes deal likely unlikely

Believable5 Unbelievable1

{Ed024's Note - He's in his last year of contract so I think we have a decent chance of getting him.}

Quality midfielder worth a bid and I ve heard the player wants to come here!. can't understand the full back situation as other premeier clubs are signing full backs why not us?/. there's plenty out there!

Agree2 Disagree1

Anybody seen the kid striker Whatmore? is he as good as Karlsson?

Agree5 Disagree0

Was told by halifax kitman that this lad has been ripping teams apart everyweek, low level but maybe one for the future

Agree0 Disagree0

Watmore has scored a few goals in pre season for the U21 team I hope he is given a chance at a higher level by PDC!

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed. Marvais was in national papers this morning as close to completion then in Chronicle this evening as being off. why are you so sure it is off?

Believable5 Unbelievable0

{Ed024's Note - I'm hearing PDC think Karlsson is a better option.}

Cheers Ed. He looked ok in his sub appearances so happy with that

Agree3 Disagree0

They have not pulled out of deal. He will sign soon. JC Fulwell.

Agree0 Disagree3

ed what do you think of the moussa sow deal do you think it will happen

Believable4 Unbelievable1

I dont think so - PDC only looking for full backs a creative midfielder, so I'd be surprised if we bid for MS}

Does anyone know why the club pulled out of the greek winger Mavrias deal? strange decision that!

Agree0 Disagree1

12m for sou nd we will get him so I think we will but we do need full backs

Agree1 Disagree1

31 Jul 2013 20:29:41
ed what do you think about cissokho do you think well get him and what do you think the chances of him coming are (thought I would ask after liverpool agreeing deal for other lb)

Believable4 Unbelievable0

{Ed024's Note - Cissokho was keen on Liverpool over Sunderland - dont think PDC will chase him. If he delays like Orban PDC will pull out of deal.}

Agree with that as the search for 2 full backs is getting farciscal now!

Agree1 Disagree0

People keep worrying about full backs, we have signed players who have improved our squad, still got just under 3 weeks before season starts and we are looking good, we should never expect too much improvement is key! 10th to 13th this season and ill be a happy season ticket holder

Agree3 Disagree0

Well clear of the relegation zone all season and ill be happy!

Agree1 Disagree0

ed is it true that we have bid 6.5million for fernandes or is he signing a new contract with beskitas as I have seen both rumours tday

Believable3 Unbelievable0

{Ed024's Note - Its truw we've bid, dont think he's signed a new contract.}

Ed I would be really happy with this would you

Agree4 Disagree0

{Ed024's Note - Fernandes would be agreat addition to the squad.}

If coentrao goes spurs you think we might sign rose

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed024's Note - No I think that one is dead.}

How old is he ed mate?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed024's Note - He's 27}

31 Jul 2013 19:27:25
The players we are looking to sign and have signed means there will be plenty of depth in the squad which are quality, which we have lacked for a while
• (name)=Possible signings

Defence- (New RB) and (LB), Colback, JOS, Brown, Diakite, Roberge

Midfield-AJ, Cabral, Sess, Giaccherini, (Fernandez), Gardner, Karlsson, Ba

Attack-Fletch, Altidore, Ji, Wickham, (Sow)

All will be looking to be in 1st team

Believable8 Unbelievable3

Thats a very strong squad. I think Gardner is happy playing at RB as he's told PDC that he will play "anywhere" so if I was PDC I'd keep Gardner at RB.

Agree1 Disagree0

31 Jul 2013 17:16:47
Were being linked to Kuzmanovic again too. Would we sign both him and Fernandes? If you had to pick one, which one would it be?

Believable2 Unbelievable0

Fernandes all day long

Agree8 Disagree1

31 Jul 2013 19:37:51
Been linked with a move for Mark Noble

I personally think he would be a good buy

Believable2 Unbelievable8

Will he move to the North East from London? I doubt it very much!

Agree2 Disagree0

Hope not. Not good enough for progression

Agree2 Disagree1

31 Jul 2013 15:34:09
Chronicle now reporting the Mavrias deal is off again and not to be resurrected? Any truth?

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Chronicle only ever report on players who are not coming to safc. prob makes them feel better due to lack of activity in their own team. tossers

Agree5 Disagree1

31 Jul 2013 15:07:47
Ed is the Mavarious deal still on?. reports saying it was back on now other reports say its off again?. also we are reported to have bid £6.5 million for Fernandas with wages agreed at 40 grand a week?. I've never known a pre season where one so many players are coming then not! off on off on etc etc. strange confusing days!

Believable3 Unbelievable0

{Ed024's Note - It's off.}

31 Jul 2013 13:35:39
Ed apparently we have dropped the mavrias deal is this true

Believable2 Unbelievable0

{Ed024's Note - Yes}

I wouldn't mourn over the Mavrias deal being pulled if we can get Fernandes. quality midfielder!

Agree1 Disagree0

Disappointed we're not pursuing this one, I thought he looked a good addition.

Agree1 Disagree0

Why? . .

Agree1 Disagree0

Hi ed is there eny truth that Cardiff my be after colback and cattermole?eny1?2.5mill of Celtic for mclean if we get the Greek kid?wotdo you think!

Believable2 Unbelievable0

{Ed024's Note - Cardiff are interested in Colback, not sure about Cattermole. Mavrais deal is off but would still not be surprised if Maclean went to Celtic.}

31 Jul 2013 16:37:15
Just done some working out
The club has only lost under 7m on transfers

Total departures=12m
Total arrivals 19m

Believable4 Unbelievable3

Invested!

Agree5 Disagree0

31 Jul 2013 16:31:15
Paolo Di Canio wants at least 3 more signings, preferably 4

The deal for Cissoko is getting a lot closer since Liverpool pulled out, but is Colback signs a deal he will probably be our LB

Looks as if we are going for Danilo D'Ambrosio for our RB position (3.5m)

Fernandez has told Besiktas that he will not sign a new contract so he can join us for around 6m, (Ronaldinho is his replacement)

Sunderland want Moussa Sow, €12m bid rejected, they want €15m (£12. 5)
He is Fletch and Altidore put together, Strong, powerful, deadly in the box but is extremely quick,
we have turned our attention away from Insigne and opted to target Sow

The revolution is almost complete my friends

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Fenebache to pay 13m for emineke possible replacement for sow who by the way isn't in the starting 11 tonight

Agree5 Disagree0

31 Jul 2013 16:13:34
Don't know how true it is but a transfer page on fb has said we have bid 6.5m for manuel fernandes. Safc93

Believable4 Unbelievable0

6. 5 seems a lot, but he is an exciting player.

Agree3 Disagree0

Apparently he rejected the contact his club gave him so he can join us

Agree4 Disagree0

Worth every euro!. if you want quality the club has to pay up!

Agree1 Disagree0

£6. 5M is a lot for this guy. Was thinking nearer half that.

Agree1 Disagree1

31 Jul 2013 15:37:48
To all the sgb who think we are skint manonne 2m
Altidore 6m
Karlson 1.5m
Giaccherini 6m
Ba 500k
The rest were bosmans so a total of 16m spent. Out have gone mignolet 11m elmohamady 2m. so we have spent 3m. we have also lost the wages of bramble kilgallon graham ndaiye with bardsley catts and mcclean to leave soon. so realisticlaly we haven't spent anything

Believable4 Unbelievable1

You also forgot add the fees SAFC get for the Graham & N'Diaye loans

Agree4 Disagree0

Actually giaccherini was £8. 6

Agree1 Disagree5

Giaccherini 8.6m euros

Agree5 Disagree0

Migs was 9, add ons later to 11

Agree3 Disagree0

31 Jul 2013 14:37:04
latest paper talk
mark noble from west ham 7m
Manuel Fernandes from basiktas 6m
Cissokho deal edging closer
but one newspaper says the mavrias deal is dead
got a feeling the next 3 signings at sunderland could exceed 15 million
bbb

Sunderland have bid 6.5 million for manuel fernandes with us agreeing to match he's 40,000 wage demands reports in portugal say

Believable4 Unbelievable0

£6. 5M transfer plus £40k / week wages; I'm not sure that represents good value.

Agree2 Disagree0

31 Jul 2013 13:40:51
i read that sunderland have been looking at the turkish league and we have bid £6.5 million for Manuel Fernades and offered him 40k a week, and also we may have bid 12 million euros for moussa sow but it has been rejected because fenerbache want 15 million euros as for our full back situations Velez say that peruzzi's deal is not of and they are still working for the transfer and on aly cissokho liverpool have dropped out and agreed a deal for benficas lb so safc have been put to 5/4 odds on signing him it will be a loan deal and permanent after that because if valencia sell him now lyon will get 40% of money where as if they sell him next year they only get 20%
