Aye terrifying news, hopefully he recovers

Trippiers clobber is fucking rancid like but I’ll let him off, Gordon has a lot to do to make up the deficit on his shocking wardrobe to performance ratio

ASM catching strays while he runs up hills in France.

Every man can dream

Ah well, not happening

The article shows it’s a lot further away from being a certainty than the headline. It basically says they expect us to bid and the bid will be within a negotiable range and acceptance would be likely. It’s possible that it was leaked from the Leicester side, or of course that it’s a load of bollocks like you say. I think they were the first to report the Botman bid even though that one was more of a beat other reporters to the punch than a true exclusive.

Good, it’s about time people stopped paying so much attention to a player who averages 3 goals and 4 assists a season. The amount of discussion and support he gets far outweighs his worth to the team. If we could get money for him and Almiron and replaced them with Diaby and Barnes that would be a phenomenal window.

Aye, tbf I’m not meaning I expect Lascelles to be there just that it’s a good gesture by Trippier. I’d just like Trippier to be officially our captain really, he deserves a mountain of credit for the turn around of the club.

Seems like we’ve signed another two highly rated youth players

It’s time we took the captaincy off Lascelles properly and give it to this bloke. Stopped by on his time off to greet the new player and introduce himself as a resource for him to settle.

It was a valiant effort given I don’t watch that pile of shite

Looking at the England U21 squad and it’s really surprising there’s no Sunderland players in there, given we’re constantly told how immense their players are I’d have thought Clarke or that goalkeeper they bang on about would get a call up? It’s almost as if they overrate the fuck out of them.

He did recently kill his uncle Han Solo mind

He scored more goals last season than ASM has managed in his entire NUFC career. It seems a bit steep to me but the market is hard to gauge so maybe he is. Maddison only had 12 months left on his contract too iirc.

What a weird way to go on about one of our players… Think the run of games and confidence will help him going into next season rather than be a possible detriment like The Fish mentioned. He didn’t start loads and had a bit of a brutal start to the season with the way Everton fans targeted him. Look forward to seeing what he can do next season, I like his directness and pace along with how he fits into the press so hopefully he fits in with our lot and proves to be a useful squad member.

I rate Barnes tbf, left wing is less of a priority than right wing for us but I think he’s class. Good rate of goals and assists from him the last 4 seasons. Steep price mind. Saying all that these links rarely amount to anything.

Fucking hell they really are desperate cunts. The funniest part is that by doing this they’re clearly stating that places that anyone would classify as Geordie or part of the Newcastle area are miles better.

I didn’t say he found his level at Leeds, I just see him as a bottom half-mid table average CM. Can’t say I’m impressed he was the best player for a very poor Leeds side Todd Cantwell was for Norwich not long ago, it’s also very debatable to say he was Leeds best since Harrison directly contributed in 25% of their PL goals, we’re in the CL and getting average midfield runners like him doesn’t improve us. I also don’t get where people are getting that he’d be cheap he cost them £20m last summer and is one year into a 5 year deal, that money would be far better spend elsewhere.
