ED are we actually interested or made a bid for Abameyang {Ed024's Note - No i havent heard this and its not being reported in the media - I think we have rejected him on the silly name rule - that name sounds crazy when you say it out loud.}

Anzi have bid 25 million for him.

Not a hope

Lucas piazon said he would love a loan move to a premier league. I would take him he's a fantastic player

Sunderlands latest reported bids in euros:

Cavanda - �7mil
Orban - �4mil
Guliavogui - �7mil
Aubameyang - �13mil
Duncan - �7mil

If Sunderland want two of Saint-Etienne's best players expect to pay closer to �25mil as they will demand more money. If we acutaly get these players the Only thing now is a LM. But who? And only 2 British players

GK - Mignolet
RB - Cavanda
CB - Diakite
CB - Roberge
LB - Orban
RM - Johnson
CM - Cabal
CM - Guliavogui
LM -?
ST - Fletcher
ST - Aubameyang

Instead of Roberge, O'Shea
Instead of Cabral, N'Daiye or Catts
Instead of Orban, Rose

Need a very creative LM with pace, I'm tempted to say insigne. {Ed024's Note - Please don't be tempted.}

Cavanda won't cost 7m only 1 year left on his contract {Ed024's Note - £3-4M }

Would love that team

LM McClean give the lad a chance he has promissed to be an easier person to work with and he has vowed to become better

Abumanayang hasn't been linked so that tells me the rest isn't true

Give your head a shake!

We don't have money for any of those players.

Catch yourself on! {Ed024's Note - Mag in disguise alert - there must be none on their site they are all on here !!!!!!}

If you take into account it's in euros it's only around 25mil.

Deluded man aubameyang get real

We have been priced out of the Paulinho race

And we have stepped up our interest in Inter's Joel Obi and Wolfsburg's
Bas Dost

I am happy with Joel Obi but Fletcher and Bas Dost are too similar, we need a player with loads of pace to get behind the defence

Id rather guilavogui than obi

If we've dropped out there better be a good reason, otherwise we know we still have no true ambition.

Joel obi is more attacking whilst guilavogui is more defensive
I would have them both!

Try getting Spanish u21 striker morata he looks the part, wld luv isco but no that wld never happen

Don't say isco, just don't

We can't afford to pay 35m on ONE player and compete with R. Madrid, M. City and Chelsea

12 Jun 2013 19:31:34
ED is it true that our representitives are in italy today to agree a fee for cavanda {Ed024's Note - Talks are ongoing.}

Will Roberge, Cabral or Ba be in the fist team fold
Or are they backup players

Think roberge and cabral will push for first team whereas ba is seen as more one for the future

This goes back to a response I put out a couple of weeks ago on here. Its important to have 16 or 17 players of equalish standard who all are first team players, gone are the days where you buy players for 'back up'. So the answer is yes and no, they will have to earn there place but will have as much chance as anyone else.

I assume cabral + roberge will play a few then miss a few and I reckon ba will either go on loan go with our development squad or go out on loan

Cabral defo will. Roberge maybe and Ba will be development!

Add cavanda to that now he has tweeted he's signed for us

I assume under pdc everyone will start off as squad players and you will get picked on fitness and merit.

Think roberge and cabral will push for first team whereas ba is seen as more one for the future

I can see Roberge getting in the first team, as I think he will impress more than Diakite.

Cabral will be behind the likes of Cattermole and N'Diaye, and defiantly behind Joshua Guilavogui if we can get him.

Ba will probably go into the Under 21 squad.

A few disagreements with the above. obviously diakite is first choice because he's bigger and more highly rated. What more could you ask for?

12 Jun 2013 15:54:33
Ed apparently we have bidded 7m for josh guilavougi

Is he worth 7m

His name makes him sound good so he's worth every penny. Its all in the name!

Shut up
Is he actually decent

Just capped by france?

Any need to tell someone to shut up for making a joke? {Ed024's Note - I think it was Stacey Solomom shut up !!}

Very highly rated and young looks interesting especially if he was with n'diaye what a beast pair that would be

Yes ed, it was a Stacey Solomon shut up

That'll be interesting
Catts, Alfie and josh in Midfeild

Opposing teams scared by their presence, not by their names

Played twice for france, last against brazil.

4 in, De fanti in talks with 4 more. Nice to see things rolling. The sad sorry mags are gutted!

Not really, newcastle can do a lot better than diakite, roberge, cabral. Your making free transfers that's why you are doing it quickly, if they weren't out of contract then you'd be doing all this in july.

So tell me who are newcastle going to sign that is better than diakite not rumours but firm interest

No he's saying you lot are jealous because there is going to be a whole load of activity at the SOL this summer and there isn't at newcastle

Diakite, Roberge, Cabral & Ba?

We are not gutted that you have signed a bunch of mediocre players.

Diakite is probably the only one good enough for the Premier League and he will be injured all the time.

You are padding your squad out with more players that are not good enough, these players won't make any difference.

Di Canio will start tinkering with the team all the time, picking players out for bullying and causing disharmony.

You lot are in big trouble.

Pardew will come good for us next season, the stability and faith put into him will pay dividends, he can only get better.

He can't do any worse or you will be playing in the Championship and not the Champions League.

For some reason we have a manager who realised we have a poor squad that needs improving having finished 4th bottom last season, hence the signings which have come and the others that are in the pipeline. these can only improve the balance of the squad for next season. also no sunderland fan has come on deluded and said we are going to get in the top 10 or challenge for Europe next season like something we read on another teams page. Now I would be a worried fan if I followed the side who finished 5th bottom and have a chairman and manager who insist they only need 2 players to improve their team and could end up losing their best player to Manchester United or Monaco as quoted in the media.

Lots of activity in the 2007/08 Season as well, 16 signings to be exact that didn't go to well did it? {Ed024's Note - Black & White alert - but he knows his Sunderland history}

He can't do any worse or you will be playing in the Championship and not the Champions League.

Hope pardews still with you in the championship

Come good? stability and faith he will be the 1st manager to go, cabaye off, ben arfa off, cisse and colo gone better get real g0rdi3 and plus sounds like your being bitter because you have heard nothing at your shambles of a club in the transfer market

I will certainly hold you to that comment ^^^ PARDEW WILL COME GOOD NEXT SEASON. Remember this mackems once Newcastle begin to struggle. Enjoy signing the likes of. uuum. ? And to that muppet who said "we're only making free transfers that's why you are doing it quickly. it was free agent's window you nonce! It's not even July yet. Atleast we're doing something early in the window. And now I hear you're attempting to bring and ex mackem to the Wonga brigade? Does he speak French? Go and enjoy the dullness of your own sight mate. Quick! before you miss the tumbleweed!

Everyone and his dogs uncle knows Bent is a good Striker, If we could get him for the 6 mill they are saying that is good business. We don't expect to hear any Transfer Rumors after getting Gazzumped on the Remy deal (cheers Harry). and as for the Ex Mackem bit how many of you think Millner will go to your Team {Ed024's Note - For £6M - Bent would be a decent signing for Newcastle, but you'll face competition from Fulham and Palace - will he move back north or will he prefer London? As for Millner - I doubt we'll see him at Sunderland.}

Couldn't pretend that we wouldn't want Milner (no chance though), its bad of Bent if he goes to a former rival but a good bit of business from the mags unfortunately. Still think ed makes a good point Bent loves London/ hates it up here

The problem with the fool army is that all the current transfers are happening at the sol and not sid james park hence they look on our site a good sunderland fan is an eternal optmist ie based on what we've seen we hope for a better team: new faces: and a change in the culture at the sol paulo is that man love him or loathe him he will do what he feels is right for the team the club and fans : is pardew that sort of man?no.
So any new faces can only add new dimensions to what was a lazy predictable team that was easily read by the opposition (except the mags).
These bosmans are adding meat to the bones of what was a thin squad and can only be better than what we had and will show any purchases where our ambition wants to take us.
Any mags viewing this site might not value the bosmans we got but pray tell who are you looking at two possibly three signings is not going to improve a squad that went from 5th top to 5th bottom and that is before your players might leave the club and remember how you sang when the french players came in and what a let down they were.
So grow up ladies what's really getting you horse is the slow canter at which youve started the race but its a furlong season and if paddock can saddle up early and keep you team from going hay-wire we might get a better derby.
Sorry gents all puns intended.

This evenings papers are reporting we're close to signing cavanda. Safc93

12 Jun 2013 13:01:13
Why don't we just go out and get Guidetti. Seems a perfect fit to me

Why the disagrees out of interest?

Looks a very good prospect, but the fact he was out all last season could be a potential stumbling block.

If he's fit now, I see no problem, might even bring his price down, or why not a loan deal?

12 Jun 2013 10:24:12
We are looking at Bas Dost a striker, looked at him on youtube. buy him. can score from distance as well as in the box, good in the air and takes a hell of a penalty. said his price is 8million don't know if its £ or euros.
Have a look and see what you think.

Only problem is he's slow! We need pace up front, last season showed that without a forward that can run in behind defenders teams can push up against us.

Looks in the same mould as Fletcher.

You definitely need some strikers after last season. You probably need a few defenders after those 6 we put past you.

SitDownDiCanio {Ed024's Note - A Villa fan I assume}

Aye, because Villa were great last season.

Probably still smarting over what they paid for Bent against what they will get for him now.

No, generally we were rubbish for quite a lot of the season but the 2nd half of the season we were the 6th most inform team in the EPL.

Jeez. , he saved us from relegation, the cost we paid for him has been justified.

Its not what they paid for bent its what they still owe

Its not what they paid for bent its what they still owe

Thank's for that £24m mate, how did that work out for you's?

Its £18m actually as we haven't had to pay the extra £6m, its worked out well as we have Benteke, Gabby & Weimann all on form with the new Ibrahimovic coming in to replace Darren Ben (t)ched {Ed024's Note - I believe Sunderland may get some of the sell on fee also}

12 Jun 2013 09:33:34
sunderland two swap sess for sidwell +3m {Ed024's Note - So....Sess to Fulham ....cant see that.}

Fulham bigger than sunderland {Ed024's Note - Black and White Alert !!!}

Fulham bigger than Sunderland?. Must make them bigger than newcastle then. We are by far the greatest and most famous team in the North East

Are they? Really? But I suppose they're not as big as Newcastle though because they are one of the top 5 clubs in world football eh? what a bunch of muppets you lot are over the dark side.

12 Jun 2013 08:08:11
Sunderland and newcastle are interested in inter milans nigerian Joel Obi. Not sure what position he plays. he's 22 and rated highly at inter and his agent has said there is definate interest from the premier league in him. {Ed024's Note - He plays in central midfield .... and has a brilliant middle name - Chukwuma.}
