Possible Sunderland team at the start of the season.
GK - Westwood
RB - Peruzzi
CB - Diakite
CB - Oshea / Roberge
LB - Orban / Rose ( if we get him )
CM - Duncan
CM - N'Diaye / Cabral
RM - Johnson
LM - Mavrias / Giaccherini
ST - Alitdore
ST - Matri
I havnt put fletcher in as it's doubtful he will be starting the season probs out the first 4 to 6 games recovering.
Believable1
Unbelievable3
Matri is a bit unrealistic
Agree3
Disagree2
I thought Giaccherini was unrealistic, now look how close the deal is
Agree4
Disagree0
Just because juve accept the bid doesn't mean the player will come. I very much doubt he will come to sunderland other bigger clubs will be watching the situation
Agree1
Disagree3
Does any Sunderland supporters think McClean is any good? he is never in any of your teams

FUC*FUC*FUC*FUC*FUC*
*multiple orgasms
SUNDERLAND, YES, US
are targeting
Alessandro Matri, Leanardo Damio, and Pablo Osvaldo
If we get any of these, top 8 here we come!
I am not lying, I'm hearing it everywhere, not going to sleep tonight {Ed024's Note - Hot milk usually works}
Believable3
Unbelievable3
Won't get Damio or Osvsldo there Romas two starting forwards. Matri on the other had is not used that much so might be open to a move. One thing is for certain italian player are not on huge wages. Matri is on around 10k a week something SAFC can easy double if he moved and money does talk. {Ed024's Note - Matri will be on more than 10k methinks}
Agree1
Disagree0
It would be nice to get one of them but to be linked with 3 strikers after we just signed one i'm guess its just talk as Jozy Altidore confirmation was delayed don't get me wrong I would love to see it but I don't think it will what do you think Ed ? {Ed024's Note - I don't think we'll sign any of those 3. Would love to be wrong - but no.}
Agree1
Disagree0
Na, we won't get Damiao or Osvaldo, that will cost too much and CL clubs are in for them
Matri on the other hand is a possibility
He is 4th placed striker behind,
Tevez
Quagrillela (spelling)
Vukinik
Giovinco
And is probably in low wages, Juventus can't have that many strikers, would be wanting rid of 1 or 2
Agree1
Disagree0
Damiao doesn't play for Roma, he plays for A Brazilian team, on low wages!
Agree2
Disagree0
Haven't juve signed llorente aswell. That puts matri further down the order. Looks like he will leave but I can't see his next club being us
Agree0

09 Jul 2013 23:18:51
The journalist who has released the story about SAFC bidding on Matri is the same one who said we have bid for Giaccherini. He has close links with new Sunderland scout Massimo Mirabelli. I think these two story's are worth keeping an eye on. don't think Di Canio and his staff are in Italy just for pre season training. {Ed024's Note -Matri would be a major surprise, Arsenal were sniffing around him March/April and he repeatedly stated he wanted to stay with Juve. He would also be turning his back on Euro football. I cant see it}
Believable1
Unbelievable0
Only turning his back on euro football for one season though ED we will win the league next season. {Ed024's Note - Now that kind of talk will gets the Mags posting - behave}
Agree0
Disagree3
Juve have signed tevez so he's going to get less game time. Fingers crossed
Agree2
Disagree0
I totally forgot Tevez has signed for them. That pushes Matri right down the pecking order. And if selling him brings in 8mil then they havnt payed much for Tevez good business for both teams. I didn't believe it but now think its a good bet he will join us.
Agree0
Disagree0
09 Jul 2013 22:55:34
Italian papers are saying we have made a 8mil euro bid for Alessandro Matri. If this is true and we somehow do get him this would be SAFC best signing of the season. He got bags of pace and is clinical in the box. I liked all our signings so far but this had made me wet myself.
Believable7
Unbelievable0
Oh yes, yes, yes
TOTAL WIN!
Agree4
Disagree0
If this is true I think the board will be aiming for us to be challenging for Europe if we get all are other singings in as well think Ellis shorts sick of relegation battles and he's going s*** or bust here just my opinion craigsafc
Agree1
Disagree1
Di Canio better know how to get all these new players playing as a team. He could be deemed as the next top manager in the world if this works or a failure I don't think there's an in between.
Agree1
Disagree0
09 Jul 2013 22:34:03
Giaccherini could be signed as soon as tomorrow
LETS GET ROSE, NOW, i'm GETTING PI$$ED OFF NOW, 7. 5M IS FUC*IN WORTH IT {Ed024's Note - If your dealing with Spurs you need patience.}
Believable3
Unbelievable0
Ed hits the nail right on the head again

09 Jul 2013 22:27:24
ed if giaccherini signs do you think sess will leave {Ed024's Note - Yes I think he would replace Sess.}
Believable1
Unbelievable0
Ed do you think giaccherini is as good as/better than sess + I hope both are playing for us next season {Ed024's Note - Giaccherini scores more goals per game but Sess has better assist stats so they have different profiles - lets be greedy and have them both - but that is unlikely. I have only seen Giaccherini play in the Confeds cup and he was outstanding}
Agree0

09 Jul 2013 21:44:45
I'm glad that we are getting our business done early and we have signed a lot of players already however, I'm getting a bit worries that the plays won't gel if a whole new team is brought in. Ed what are the latests rumours? And do you share my slight worry? {Ed024's Note - Rumours wise Peruzzi seems to be making conciliatory noises so I wouldn't discount that one, Orban seems more likely than Rose currently, it would also not surprise me if we renegotiate with Colback - he hasn't said he wants to go - just that he is not happy with the contract - could still be in the squad for Fulham game. regarding your second question - I know what you mean but I'd be more worried if we were not bringing players in}

Love to get Giaccherini, class player and was born on 5th May. Haway Sunderland! {Ed024's Note - As long as it wasn't 5th May 1973 - that would make him 40 year old !}

No Ed, 5th May 1985. Still a class Birthday though.

Two more young Italians to come in & peruzzi can't wait to see some decent footy for a change.
Last season it was liking watching men against boys.

Peruzzi to join later on this week as long as we slightly increase our offer also hadji Ba and Altidore deals to be completed sounds as though chavaris will also join before the weekend and PDC interesting in loaning Matej Vydra from Udinese to complete our forward line and bringing in Luis Cavanda from Lazio as cover at the back also a possibility that he may look at another midfielder possibly Huddlestone now with Colback, Cattermole and Vaughan all set to leave before the deadline still praying we get Ros� from Tottenham
Team come 17th August
Westwood
Peruzzi
O'Shea
Diakite
Rose ( hopefully)
Johnson
N'Diaye
Huddlestone (possibly)
Chavaris
Fletcher
Altidore
Subs
Mannone
Roberge
Cavanda
Cabral
Larsson
Graham
Vydra
El hadji Ba and Moberg Karlsson to join development squad at the start to gain experience

Giaccherini, Altidore, and peruzzi on the verge of Sunderland switch
Rose and Huddlestone probably going to be signed {Ed024's Note - Alkmar saying the Altidore deal is done.}
Believable8
Unbelievable1
09 Jul 2013 16:38:29
The Peruzzi deal is still very likely to happen
Both clubs are desperate for the deal to be done, and he said that he wants to play for a top club where he can play constantly (with World Cup in mind)
He wishes Velez the best for the future but he wants to continue to negotiate a deal with Sunderland
Believable4
Unbelievable2
Hope so he is a great player

Really suprised by that! either he doesn't like the PDC regime or Steve Bruce is after him!. Ed or anyone know why Alidore hasn't signed yet! {Ed024's Note - I am told just a matter of time.}

Wish he was staying he's one of he only players that deserves to stay after last season diabolical displays craigsafc

What money do fans think well get or should get for Coleback!

Ffs it's colback

6m-7m
Still young and versatile
Agree5

Must be worth 3-4 mill brilliant player if a bit negative but solid
Agree4
Disagree0
We won't get £7 million for Colback!. don't be silly!
Agree4
Disagree1
Ming, Sess and now Colback have had enough. Is there any more of the exodus of players who we would prefer to stay?
Agree1
Disagree0
Were not going to get 6-7m for a player with 1 year on contract and isn't proven in his favoured position. the very reason he wants to leave. We'll get 2m but can see him staying anyway.
Agree2
Disagree1
I can see him staying, he is a future England defender. Can you think of a young English defender in the prem last season as good as him and could hold his own in that position.
Agree0
Disagree0
Last year of his contract so not big money.
Wish him well, again he was messed about.
Agree1
Disagree0
I assure you he'll never get capped for England, very good squad player with 100% commitment but doesn't score goals and isn't strong enough but not to say he's not a good player because he is. The very reason he wants to leave is because he doesn't want to play defence.
Agree1
Disagree1
Young England defender get a grip, until he played a couple of games at right back people on here were saying he is crap. although I am a big believer in bringing players through and keeping them but if they don't want to stay its bye and I think we would be lucky to get 3t4 mill
Agree1

09 Jul 2013 12:43:15
any news on that big lad from inter? was he called duncan? CC
Believable2
Unbelievable2
You are not getting Altidore.
You're not getting Peruzzi.
You're not getting Duncan.
You're not getting Rose!
I will apologise and eat my words if I am wrong.
They are just using Sunderland to engineer interest from other clubs and get better contracts. 100% true.
Agree2
Disagree16
Has anyone heard that Jack Colback has handed in a transfer request? Would he be a big miss and where would he go? My bet is he'll go to Hull.
Agree7
Disagree1
We will definetly get altidore
we will hopefully get pezzuri
we will get rose if we bid atleast 7.5mill
Agree8
Disagree3
Don't think he has handed in a transfer request ( I could be wrong mind ) He just refused to extend his contract. But either way he will probably be gone this summer because don't think we will wanna lose him on a free next summer.
Agree1
Disagree1
Got to laugh at the Skunks saying that we are signing "nobody's". Cabral has won 5 league titles and 3 cups with Basel. Last 16 Champs league. He's won more silverware than all of Wongaland's team put together. Just a thought like.
Agree9
Disagree2
I like jack but he's not going to fire us to where we want to be same story with several players we still have sorry jack but I wish you all the best in your next team
Agree2
Disagree1
And who are you lot getting? Two mercenarys? And that's if your lucky.
Agree0
Disagree0
Those skunks are bricking it because we're getting our business done early. Green doesn't go well with black and white! They say our new signings are nobody's but that's just them trying sound not bothered but the more they do it the more desperate they come across!
Agree3
Disagree1
Errrr
Altidore is going to be announced in the next few hours
We still can get Peruzzi, just his Agent causing problems
Duncan said he was flattered by Sunderland interest
Pay the right money for Rose and he's ours
Agree4
Disagree0
Skunks say we are signing "nobody's". Diakite has won 2 cups with Lazio. That's 2 cups more than Wongaland have won in the last 44 years. Just a thought like!
Agree3
Disagree0
Well said, but I must pick you up on a point of fact because it is important. As you may be aware, UEFA did not organise the Fairs Cup and so, UEFA do not consider clubs' records in the Fairs Cup to be part of their European record. In other words, it's actually 58 years since Newcastle won anything.
Agree2
Disagree0
Nice one mate! That's the best correction I've ever had. 58 years, love it!
Agree1
Disagree0
Sorry SGB but Altidore has just signed, Peruzzi is close, Duncan probs not but could be getting that lad from Juventus and Rose could go either way
Agree1
Disagree1
There's Altidor signed, where's that mag with his apology?
Agree1
Disagree0
To the 2nd poster. PILLOCK! :-) {Ed024's Note - Has he munched his words yet ???}
Agree1
Disagree0
Tmro, will be Peruzzi, followed by Rose {Ed024's Note - Still think its too early for Rose - we're dealing with Spurs you know - negotiations could take till Christmas.}
Agree1
Disagree0
09 Jul 2013 01:42:48
Whats going on it seems all our targets are not signing or going else were, Gino Peruzzi rejected our offer, Benjamin Mendy has signed for Marseille, El Hadji Ba no news at all, Jozy Altidore had a medical and then silence I just hope they thought they could announce 3 players and are just waiting for Gino Peruzzi to accept before they announce it what do you think Edward aka ED? {Ed024's Note - Mendy was always keen to stay in France so i wouldn't read to much into that,Peruzzi is an agent issue, and if Alts has passed his medical he will be announced soon.}

New Palermo coach Gennaro Gattuso has admitted that the young star striker Abel Hernandez could be sold if a large enough offer comes in. The �4million rated Gooo sign him up

So to the second - very negative poster. Would like some salt and pepper on your words?

09 Jul 2013 00:50:08
ED if we make a offer for a player and its accepted and we agree terms with player and he passes medical and he signs and is wearing a safc top and its on the safc website, will you confirm it. and is a player fit if he is not match fit? {Ed024's Note - It wouldn't need confirming you'd already know, but if you were still unsure I could confirm it for you. Regarding fitness - of course a player can be fit but not match fit - why do think the term match fit is used ?}
Believable2

Seems like a lot of fans are getting fed up with all the waiting for signings. not suprised {Ed024's Note - I am - we've been more active than any other EPL club !!
