I can’t see Arsenal paying 100m for another midfielder when they need to spend that type of fee on a striker. City though are a different kettle of fish 

yeah, such a shame his injury has meant us only seeing this in the final stages.. looks sharp as fuck

what would people make of us  just bringing in maybe only one new player for a fee if it meant keeping 39 and 14?

I would be. We’ve got a good team if we can have them all fit at same time to choose from.. the question that’s been raised this season is strength in depth though.. keeper, centre back, and centre forward because wilson is never fit.. i suppose midfield needed cover this season at times but tonali was signed to address that

Why are they even thinking of getting rid of Poch, man? He's a very good coach, trying to work it out with a disjointed mish mash of young players. Just let him get on with it. 

 

They always want the latest shiny thing man, such a joke club. 

similar to some that were wanting rid of eddie because we had a dip in form alongside an unprecedented injury crisis ?

like someone said earlier, he was looking sharp pre season. let’s hope this is him picking up where he left off. got good feet and vision this lad 

pay him whatever he wants. irreplaceable for us atm 

double that fee to even get a reply saying no 

this is class news. he would cost a fortune to replace, not many that boss the midfield like joelinton available 

we need him for after match photos

weirdly there seems to be some kind of police base above darras hall off of Ashcroft road, so you'd think that would put people off the area.

it looks like a normal housing estate but has some big police building in there and the entrance has a security checkpoint.

 

I always thought it was one of those private gated communities where the rich people live, but I guess not.


Some of the houses in darras hall are proper nice, wonder who lives here with a huge garden and lake
 

 

 

 

be the police training centre. used to be up there years back. 

feywer fucking nil mara

bloody hope so 

hahaha.. he’s like herpes isn’t he. cant get rid of him ..

loved Jonas. wasn’t exactly top drawer quality but you always got 100% shift from him, and he cared. A born fighter

probably the best midfielder we’ve ever had in terms of skill.

Forget who posted it end of last season, but it was his last season stats from a website, other than goals everything was world class level. Hes so good. Missing link between midfield and our attack 

Well, everyone wanted Burn dropped and he did. Now we’re blaming other things. Fact is we had a weak midfield, and other players not playing their best against a very very strong team. Onwards we go.. 

Just now, pubteam said:

They go to two at the back at times our attack if offering so little threat then we get overrun.

yup 

Yeah everyone can see it. We need to shore up that midfield .. too strong for us. 

the gift of sunderland 

never let it go 

schar is a warrior. he will play. I’ve never seen a bloke get smashed in the head as much as him and still cracks on .. dodgy wrist, meh.. nowt to him 

in a couple years this lad will be the upgrade to Longstaff we need without having to buy anyone. for now we just need Tonali playing, and Joelinton and Willock fit 

it would be interesting to see how he’d get on with Joelinton and Bruno around him .. as opposed to Longstaff .. or with Tonali. Defo one for our future this lad
