cp40 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 So I'm guessing the world class signings of Muntari and Sessegthing haven't quite lived up to the hype then? what do you think happens when you drop a couple of Diamonds in a bucket of s****? Muntari a diamond? Really? More like dropping some s*** in more s***. He's the piece of sweetcorn in the shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wearside Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I do wonder whether Henderson has burnt himself out or isn't quite as good as people were making him out to be. Has played every game this season but his performances have been poor recently mainly due to the reason that he is being asked to play the defensive midfield role and that is not his game at all.

Optimistic Nut Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 A Sunderland win against Liverpool would boost any chance of us sneaking a top 6 spot immensely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I do wonder whether Henderson has burnt himself out or isn't quite as good as people were making him out to be. Whenever I've seen him play he appears to be lacking in something, I'm not sure if it's in his personality or character, there's just something missing from his game to take him to the next level. He's froze in both games against us as well. Ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 He seems a bit like Jenas imo, decent enough technically, but doesn't seem to actually have a function (is he a holding midfielder? Playmaker?). Will be a tidy enough mid table standard player who might win the odd England call up when there's injuries, but nowt more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 They don't seem impressed by him. Shock. They seem to stumble along and keep a team together, but they really have bought a lot of overpriced duffers during the the Quinn/Keane/Bruce era. I know to attract players to Wearside they're always going to have to pay through the nose, but for the huge investment they've put into transfers and salaries I'd be expecting a bit more progress and consistency by now.

BlueStar Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Might not be hanging around long anyway Sulley Muntari is glad to be back in England, but he admits he is unsure if he will still be at Sunderland Football Club by the time next season begins. The former Portsmouth midfielder joined the Black Cats from Internazionale on loan in the New Year, and he has already had a big impact at the Stadium of Light. Steve Bruce is sure to try and sign Muntari on a permanent basis in the summer, but as much as the player is enjoying being back in England, he is unsure where he will be next season. "I do not know whether I will be here next season,” he told the Mirror. “I am on loan but I am just concentrating on the rest of this season. I am not thinking about what will happen.” The high Greggs concentration in the area might seal the deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I hope he stays. Bruce will see his name as a massive capture and is likely to offer crazy wages to keep him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which "overpriced duffer" has Bruce bought out of interest? Off the top of my head the only failures he has paid cash for were Kilgallon and Angeleri who cost £2m and £1.5m so hardly much wasted in the grand scheme of things.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I thought Bruce had done alright signings-wise, the only question is whether the club can really afford them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Bruce is pretty decent in the transfer market to be fair. Although I think he was robbed £13m for Gyan. £8m player max at the time. The overpricings of Bent and Carroll don't make it look so bad though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiled in Texas Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 The Keeper Gordon seems over priced, and has been benched a lot recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Can't argue with Bruce in the market, he's got some good players in for them. The only issue will be whether the board can really afford the amount they're paying out. That's not Bruce's fault tbf. Same opinion of twitchy when he was at Pompey. It's not his fault if the board are stupid enough to pay out what they can't afford (not saying that's what the mackems are doing, I've not really kept up with the whole finances debate earlier in this thread).
