Foluwashola Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Starting to out a squad together mind. Progress. We need a couple of marquee signings like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deckard 13 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Hardly inspiring but you spend your money upgrading your weaknesses, not your strengths. Yedlin is clear 1st choice so 4mil back up is fine. Rather this than 12mil spaffed on Jenkinson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Why are we signing a shit right back when we have so many other priorities I doubt the two things are exclusive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Two players in a day. Mercy. Two transfer baths thankfully. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 At very least if Rafa is happy with these underwhelming signings then at least he will stay on and hopefully get a lot out of them for a comfortable first season back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Murphy is underwhelming, I think he's exciting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 - Will provide competition - Has likely cost us very little. (Original report states nominal or free) - Has played either side but RB is his natural, preferred position - Was highly rated but hasn't settled. Hopefully Rafa can improve him. If not he is another lazaar at worst and will push Yedlin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Mackem friend says he has a bit of pace, but thats it. Can't defend, can't produce a final ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenige Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Mackem friend says he has a bit of pace, but thats it. Can't defend, can't produce a final ball. Are we signing Danny Simpson? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Not gonna slate any signings we make this summer. I trust Rafa 100%. If he wants him in then go for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Mackem friend says he has a bit of pace, but thats it. Can't defend, can't produce a final ball. Again though, defending is all about the collective and Sunderland where utterly rank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 He was awful for the Mackems, they were saying they should have signed Yedlin and not this bloke. Not sure about this deal, backing up Yedlin I hope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I think it would be unfair to read too much into his time at Sunderland, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Trust Rafa as per. Hope he is just cover like. Same here, I trust Rafa knows why he wants him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Trust Rafa as per. Hope he is just cover like. Basically Gamez -10 years, quite shrewd if he's even capable because he can cover either side. Not sure Jesus was ever up to it in the Championship, never mind the Premiership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 If he's that bad I will just hope that he turns out like Clark did for us in the Championship. I mean in a bad side many players look bad. Time will tell. Hopa Rafa is saving the big cash for CM and #10 (I wish lol) He's looked bad in good sides. He can play on either side, so I assume we've bought him to not only fill Anita's boots but provide backup to Dummett too. Can only assume he'll be backup like. No need to assume. Rafa said that he was looking for someone to cover FB positions. He's got his wide man & CB. Now all that's left is the striker and CM he wanted which I dare say will be late in the window as the demand and fee's will be currently very high so it will be a case of us getting in the queue and see what comes our way.

mattypnufc Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I'd be interested to look at the Ciaran Clark thread when we signed and compare and contrast. I'd imagine it'll make for similar viewing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Signing someone better than Yedlin would've been almost impossible given the amount of players we need. The right level of signing, just hope he does the business and can improve under the Gafa. The same might apply to striker, so brace yourselves.
