The price we let him go for was ridiculous. Out and out goalscorer - good ones are hard to come by.

I remember towards the end of the season under Pellers, Dzeko was on fire! And people go on about Aguero's goal at QPR, and rightly so, but Dzeko dragged us back in to that match.

Sorry Mase, loved Kola, but running is essential to play football.

I liked Edin, sometimes he looked a perfect number nine, but when he was off form he could be dire. He didn’t deserve the Dzonkey nickname some on here called him though.

He was frustrating. But he saved us a hell of a lot. He was a good "Plan B".

I respect Dzeko, as well as Kola, as they came here as mercenaries and felt in love with the club and left, but still celebrated and had fantastic words to go by.

He will be forever a legend here.

Paddy Roberts has had his loan spell at Norwich cut short and gone up to Middlesbrough instead

Rodwell signs for the blades. Cannot see Wilder letting him fuck them around. Great chance for him to rebuild his reputation after a wasted few years. Are you reading Stones

After watching that show ”Sunderland Ti'll I Die", I would rather buy a wooden scarecrow that Rodwell.
That fella is rotten to the bone.

Didn't he screwed with someone's missues from the forum? Or my mind playing tricks on me? :lol:

No way, he was not at fault for anything at Sunderland. Sunderland are a shambles. Poison club.They gave him a contract and wanted him to forgo his wages so they could save money. Fuck that, he was dead right just as any of us would do the same if our employers tried that. They tried to emotionally blackmail him into ripping up his contract and why would he do that? Its a short career and as shown since he likely wasnt set up for life.

I like what there doing here, if hes fit hes a decent player. Worth a gamble from them. Big Sam did this kind of deal and revitalized a load of finished players when he was bolton manager. Id love to see rodwell get fit and prove everyone wrong.
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apparently we’ve offered 38 million for soyuncu (Leicester cb) which they have apparently rejected and asked for 60 mil - I’d say offer a 100 for him and chilwell - maybe bung Angelino in to sweeten the deal
Offer 45 for Jiminez while we’re at it

Not sure Angelino would sweeten it much to be honest.

Funny - in August I was critised by some because my eyes told me he's a crap defender. They said he was young and that was fine, he did a good cross in minute 47.

Now it has become obvious even to the habitual Etuhu and Tosin supporting die hards :D

Both were awful against us. I'd like to buy some top class players rather than ones from Leicester. Chilwell is the new Luke Shaw.

I like soyuncu. Has impressed me all season. Chilwell is gash, best to be avoided. No better than what we have.

I’d rather Digne personally.

There aren't any more top class defenders worldwide only shit overpriced players. In these day and age, Dunnie would cost 60 mil.
I would rather give it a go with Laporte and Garcia until the end of the season (when Laporte is fit), with Otter as a back up and sign another one who is decent. I liked Soyuncu also.

Hope we fuck off Stones.

Soyuncu got skinned by Kev multiple times. Kev isn't known for his pace.
