Dr Jinx Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Must be awful being an existing centre back for the club right now, we’re literally being linked with players in that position 90% of the window so far. We should try and swap Lascelles if we’re doing business with any other PL club. It would be good for him not being in a side where he has responsibilities, his goose is cooked here anyway.

There's definitely work going on to find clubs for quite a few of our existing players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 What's clear is that we are signing a new centre back, we just don't know which one yet. I think we are just seeing which one we can get a better deal on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 We wouldn't go and sign two 30m defenders would we? Absolutely mental if that happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emotic Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 How many staff do you all reckon we have with all these irons in the fire. Watching that Sunderland Netflix documentary makes me imagine two blokes in cubicles just sitting around working the phones, sweating and caving in to outrageous demands on deadline day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Tripper Carlos Botman Ritchie Sounds legit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually might, given that Botman and Carlos have drastically different styles of play. We might not sign both, but a “cultured” defender (with a left foot), like Botman, alongside an “all-action” player like Carlos, would be transformative. We’ve been linked with tons of CBs, I’d be surprised if we end the window with just one incoming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Diop alongside Botman with Trippier & another left-back and we'll stay up comfortably. Good defender, Premier League experience, would help Botman hugely. Could see us selling Schar if we get both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Yeah, if we get Diop Schar leaving makes a lot of sense. Lascelles won't leave because he's captain and we won't want to rock the boat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might get £6-10m for Schar still, plus I can't see him staying being two further down the pecking order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A club that has just made an offer of 30 mil for a centre back won’t be going into the next half season with Dwight Gayle upfront Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
