Sunderland will sign Danny Rose for £5 million, if any higher it is too much

He's the best left back in England IMO

Id pay up to £10 million for him ..worth every penny

Rose and Leighton Baines i would say

Its been said in the press he is not for sale . I hope we can get him though. He's young and he could be in the team/squad for many years to come .Hopefully we can get him but it will cost us.

Best left back?!?!
Cole and Baines are well ahead!

Rose is as good , younger and faster and is still learning the game with years /seasons in front of him!

Rose would be a class signing but players like downing evans and wellbeck come to mind lads

Rose is too good for a small team like the Mackems.

Not as good as Santon though, Italy international and a Champions league winner at his young age.

The best you can hope for is picking up a few cheap signings of Aston Villa when they go down.

If you got Albright you lot would probably think all your birthdays had came at once, and he is rubbish.

Only seen the highlights on tv but santon has been poor in your last 4 or 5 games not one to rely on looked lost without jonas covering him the other day

Santon has been torn apart last few games

After watching that tripe today, we need to seriously strengthen all over the pitch. Rose will stay till end of season but then back to Spurs. Confirmed.

We could still sign rose at the end of the season but we have him until then at least, we need a cb, cm, fw and left back hopefully rose!

Definatly ! the side needs major overhauling ! ....im worried than MON doesnt know what he best line up is ! he certainly doesnt like 2 up front which not only is boring for the fans but we cant score enough goals !

MON has shown no capacity to mould a team- he is clueless. he sends out sides that are set up to get behind the ball and don't know what to do with it when they have it. The style of play he favours- to call the pathetic organisation evidenced on the pitch 'tactics' is an exaggeration- is dull at best and generally shambolic. McClean was woeful again, Johnson very ordinary, Fletcher rendered irrelevant by the lack of a plan and anyone who can get the ball to him. The defence performed at their usual low level of competence, and we have the worst centre back pairing in the league which ever combination is used. Headless chickens managed by a spent force who would do us a kindness if he gave up now, but will probably waste more of the clubs resources in January. I would not give him a penny to spend, because he has no plan, does not seem to recognise even basic requirements and is a very poor judge of of both players and performances- as is clear from the personic explanations he offers after the miserable performances his team churn out. I am beginning to wish we had not beaten City, because it could well keep him in job he patently cannot do.

Who do you want for goodness sake Mark Hughes is available. Is that who you want, would you want Pardew, get a grip, you will be ok.

Pardew. Is on 8 years so we wont have him haha

The fact that there are worse managers than O'Neill does not make him any better. He had a good spell with Celtic- which is not saying much- but has been ordinary every where else, and very very ordinary here. If your yardstick is the even less successful managers in the premier league- and this is a short list- fair enough, but some of us think a club as big as ours that spends as much money as we have can and should perform much better than it does. The clear fact is that after flattering early on O'Neill has not met expectations, and has given no indication that he understands why this is or has any sensible plan that might improve things.

Normal service resumed- clueless defending, no tactics, MON without any idea of what to do to influence game. McClean awful, all three centre backs on show too slow and looking like they have not previously met. Absolutely no evidence of organisation or coaching. This is not good enough, the players are not good enough, the manager is not good enough. If this is the best we can manage at home, and after two wins, then MON has to go- he does not have enough ambition and this is reflected in his ten-men-behind-the-ball formation that is as ineffective as it is dull to watch. Shapeless, no attacking intent- Fletcher might as well not be there the support he gets, and why Wickham can't get on when the likes of McClean is giving the ball away every time he gets it is beyond reason.

Poor again, should of went more attacking from the start, got 6 points out of 9 the past 3 games where everyone thought we would maybe get 1 point at most can't complain, 7 points above relegation zone. HA'WAY THE LADS!!

Ha Ha the Toon love it.. keep it coming.

Agree cant see what MON sees in cuellar and bramble we need 2 top defenders and another left back as looks like spurs gonna keep Rose !..and why is MON keep playing one up front is sucidal !..4-4-2 is the only option at home paticullay when we are behind !

Bet Shearer will be in toon tears on MOTD tonite lol

Well.we had a good laugh yesterday with Fergies comments.It went through them like a virus, a bout of diarrhea and the winter vomiting bug rolled into one.They just could not keep anything down, spewing bile in all directions.They could try kaoline and morphine but may only last till kick off time at the Emirates.Any way good luck to the lads today, its a tough game, but it is a game we should get at least a point from.Hope we can get Danny Rose in talks today.Chris-S.

MON said he was hoping of a "conversation " with spurs when they came up north !. over Danny Rose !! ...we should be starting negoitiation NOW as there will be big interest in Rose ! ...there seems to be a lack of push !..make spurs an ofer Martin !
