aussiemag Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 He's probably just enough for them to do the double over us Pardew again this season. This is a given. However, they tend to lose against every other relegation/bottom side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuy_O Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Still think 10 mill is to much. Hardly played for ages and an absolute crock. Decent player of course but the definition of damaged goods. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabella, too. There's goals in our team now if we set up to score them. Rodwell is a good signing if he stays fit, but how often do people say that about players and they continue to be injury prone?

loki679 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 So £24m for Borini and Rodwell? Big risk for them really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 They really could do with another forward and apart from Borini they don't seem to be linked to anyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Fairly large transfer fee and a 5 year deal for a player who's had about 10 hours of football in the last 2 years is canny mental. Hell of a risk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really think De Jong will score goals the way Nolan did. He's more of a goal scorer than Cabaye was in that number 10 position IMO. Also think Cabella will score goals too, along with Riviere. Think once we get them all in the same team, it will be a lot more apparent. Really like the potential of those three, think they've looked good.

KaKa Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 To be fair to Sunderland they do have Fletcher who even managed to score under O'Neill. Wickham will stay too, and Jozy might get better under Poyet. Johnson will score some. They'll be okay this season tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell of a risk. It's not like he's got a massive body of work before his Man City days either. He looked promising for Everton, but I can't say I've ever been blown away by him. Saying that, he could turn out to be a very good player, and I suppose it's a risk/reward situation. If he had met his potential and been performing well, he wouldn't be going to Sunderland in the first place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Played 109 minutes last season. There's potentially a good player in there, or at least there was. I'd say £10m's at least double what he's worth though, City only paid £2m more when we was the 'next big thing' out of Everton. Since then he's achieved/contributed about as much as I have as a Premier League player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Campbell(ex sprinter) was working with him last season just said he thinks getting him fit will be a massive challenge. Doesnt sound like he has much faith in him playing regular football at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Goalkeeper probably equal Best defender us Best midfielder us now Rodwell has signed Best forward us once Borini is confirmed Carry on bigging up their team of players you've never heard of though.

ExiledGeordie Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Rodwell probably needed a move like this as he just hasnt feature at all in the last two years. He's a great box to box midfielder from memory and a terrific finisher. But.....the lad just seems to be one of those players who is ridiculously injury prone. If they can keep him fit it's a very good signing but it's a lot of money shelled out if he spends most of or a lot of the time on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Whose the midfielder Kinnear tried to sign from ManCity for us, when he was manager, the nutter. Michael Johnson was it?
