Skeletor Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 At least they are prepared to invest money into the squad. They have bought some shite, but they may well get it right one day. Not likely. The reason they have to spend that much money (fees and wages) is because they're an unattractive prospect for players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Tor-Kristian Karlsen @karlsentk 42m42 minutes ago Read in Gazzetta this morning that Sunderland obliged to exercise £9M buy-option for Ricky Alvarez in case of staying up. Oh dear, if true Barely played has he? That's true. Was reported in most places in the summer, that if they stay up they are contractually obliged to pay the money not an option. He's a half decent albeit lightweight 10, couldn't have been more unsuited to the way the play from the off given he doesn't have the fitness or graft to play in their back 9. Aye I saw him in Italy quite a lot, very talented although tended to be inconsistent but tbf most players of that type are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stray Mackem Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Mental how much money they spunk up the wall. Most of my sunderland supporting mates say they'd rather have Gardner back than £10 million Rodwell. I was there on Saturday and Rodwell was appalling. His only meaningful contribution was being sent off, which actually resulted in us playing better football. If we don't beat Burnley on Saturday we are seriously in the shite. Defoe must be wondering what the fuck he has let himself in for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Funny how they've got two quite decent attacking midfielders with good pedigree in Giacc and Alvarez yet I'd be willing to bet they've never been on the pitch at the same time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiesteve710 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Literally no-one is still alive from then. All football is history marra. 9-1ftm is history, just as the 5-1 is now marra. The only difference whatsoever between those 2 games is 4 more goals were scored. All football is just history- apart from the Fairs Cup. Doesn't count as history cos sunderlandNETD weren't in it marra Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
