Sunderland and Di Canio aren't big enough to be able to get away with shit like this. Any player with any pedigree they go in for this summer would tell their agent to make sure they got more than the going rate anyway since they're naturally quite reticent to moving to the NE. When you consider they've got a right wing nutter who will cancel their holidays and fine them huge sums for any perceived indiscretion then they're going to have to chuck obscene sums at players to convince them to consider SAFC.

 

Throw into the mix a few players who might now decide to take a cut in pay to get away from the manager & they could be in for a very painful summer.

It'll all be sweetness and light over the intervening months but once the season starts if they struggle there'll be hell on.

Johnson has looked much better for Di Canio's methods unfortunately, we'll see how long that lasts though. Be interesting to see what happens if they end up with a well disciplined organised squad, but that's going to take a massive overhaul, and a lot of their players have no sale value

Isn't Johnson one of those notorious for his drinking? Can't see him staying in the good books for long.

Fuck me, he never shuts up, does he?

 

This is going to backfire spectacularly, you cant fine someone two weeks wages for being twenty minutes late ffs.  Who is going to go to a club where such a militant authority from a man who has achieved nothing in management is in existence?

 

If anything, the only players they are going to get in are mercenaries who will move for the increased pay packet that Sunderland will have to pay making it a vicious circle.

I can see him going before we get rid of Pardew. :lol:

 

 

:okay:

 

They would be better off sacking him now tbh.  As far as SAFC are concerned, mission has been accomplished i.e. they stayed in the PL to get the riches on offer next season.  They can now afford to get rid of PDC - paying up his contract in the process - and move on to a more 'stable' manager before the sideshow/debacle gets any worse.

I think Di Canio might be surprised by the lack of takers for his squad.  I think he'll need to downsize the squad before being able to spend.

He will need players who are desperate to play in the PL, because you'd have to be mad to (a) join Sunderland and (b) join a team managed by Paulo Di Canio.

 

Waving a big contract might convince a few mind.

True, that always helps.

 

Ironically people like Bardsley are the sort of player you would usually expect to do OK in a Di Canio dressing room.
