Guest Bert Shaft Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I, for one, am in total meltdown. Me too, am jealous as f*ck that they've signed Borsalini . I'll never be able to get over this. It's a tragedy for NUFC, the consigns us to losing the next 34 derby games 3-0, oh the anguish, the pain, the total and utter despair...

If it paints NUFC and its fans in a bad light, it is automatically a fact! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Their fans are so small-time... Borini? And we're jealous? We have ample players who can play in his position who are arguably miles better. They're a bit like Fulham in London - nobody gives a toss about them apart from themselves.

SEMTEX Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I'd take Borini but I can't say I'm raging about it. I don't think we have ample players for any position. Maybe other than AMC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeloEmre Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Borini would be behind Sissoko, Perez, Thauvin, Wijnaldum and probably de Jong. No way i would take him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Why not? We can have depth you know. We'll have plenty injuries I'm sure, especially with shitlungs on the list. Plus we've got none at CM, so I'd personally be looking to utilize Wijnaldum back there. I wouldn't be looking to play Borini as the central guy behind the striker anyway, probably shove him on the wing or upfront, depending upon what's happening with the squad. Gabriel Obertan has started multiple games for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Wouldn't have went anywhere near Borini if he was available for £2m never mind £10m, personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeloEmre Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Why not? Because we could get so much more for that kind of money. £10m for Borini ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AY Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 How on earth are they happy with their window? Lots of posts on RTG about how "congers did well" etc. They have Championship standard left back, horrible centrehalves apart from O'Shea, totally useless Cattermole still in midfield.. Pantilimon is a good keeper and M'Vila looks like a good player. Defoe might not be interested being on the wing the whole season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Re boring: I Personally think it's about the best they can do (and vice versa) in this state and at this time of the window. Saying that he'll have had them over a barrel, it'll be somewhere north of what Wickham was getting and maybe even to match Defoe. He'll have daft clauses as well, as soon as he can he will be off. Make no mistake about it, he's only there because playing for Sunderland is (arguably) better than playing for Liverpool reserves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bada Bing Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I reckon they'll score more than us this year. Lens, Borini, M'vila and Defoe is alright tbh. Terrible defence though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind Borini and I don't give a shit about the money. If I had a choice of our current squad with Borini, or our current squad without Borini, I'd take the former.

AY Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Defoe might not be interested being on the wing the whole season. He won't play on the wing now. Yea, Borini of course on the left, Lens (who looks good I admit) right, but Defoe as only CF really doesn't seem like Advocaat's system. Johnson will surely start when fit, so Johnson right, Lens left and Borini up top? They have good players but Toivonen is the only one who gives different option. If as it seems Fletcher and Graham are not good enough for Dick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I reckon they'll score more than us this year. Lens, Borini, M'vila and Defoe is alright tbh. Terrible defence though. Except only one of those has ever been anything like a real goal scorer (Defoe, and he's on the way out). Lens is decent for a winger but isn't going to get double figures, neither is Borini. Meanwhile M'Vila has 3 goals in 194 games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhoywhonder Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Christ, how could he have made it more obvious they are his second (and that's generous) choice?! Imagine if this was an ex-lass who had made it very public she wasn't interested in you despite you doing everything to get her back. Instead, she clung onto her current (disinterested) lad until he literally kicked her out the door, and then turned up saying - "one more chance?" and spouted some billy bullsh*t about you being the best lad in town. You have a choice - if you had anything about you, you'd slam the door. Alternatively you might take her back, but on your own terms so she doesn't shaft you again and she has to actually work at the relationship. However, if you had no dignity at all you'd chuck a bunch of money her way, drop to your knees, cry tears of joy and get your tongue to work on her chocolate starfish so hard, her dentist has to work around it at her next cleaning. This more or less describes the situation on wearside right now. "He loves scorin against the mags marra, 10 million well spent!" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
