His skill set could actually work quite well in a russ team. He’s technically very good, creative and also think he has a eye for an incisive through ball.. In a team that keeps possession should really suit him

Think arribo has done reasonably well in a couple of his sub appearances.. he’s created chances in small amounts of game time .... it always bugs me the grief the bench/squad players get .. it’s very hard for them to come in for 10-15 minutes and impact a match Fraser is a rare exception.

Without trying to nitpick I just wonder why you would put him above Lavia as our best signing for many years ? lavia was under half the price and proved it at premiership level

It’s probably a lot to do with physicality that holds jwp back .. he doesn’t have the powerful physique of a lot of top top midfielders .. yet also doesn’t have skillset of a Maddison or grealish etc who could play much more advanced.. in a way he was very very fortunate that we seemed to persist and persist with him .. he didn’t really start giving us anything unti Ralph was in charge

I’m talking about why do people care if he gets picked for England now .. he deserted us as soon as we dropped.. I fully understand the reasoning but any love towards him is now gone for me

Who cares anyway .. he wanted out he’s gone..not sure why people want to see him rewarded for leaving the sinking ship

We have taken 14 points out of a possible 18 in the last 6 games.. can’t really argue with that form. Also the Preston game we rested sulamana, Alcaraz stuey etc ..I think the line up with those in deserves to continue after such a good run of form don’t you ? no need to rush Ross back in that form

Feel pretty relaxed about the Stewart situation at the moment.. we are playing well and winning most games.. at the moment it’s harsh to drop anyone to accommodate him.. in a way it’s set up perfectly to ease him in slowly and not be pressured into trying to rush him back .

Alcaraz probably the next most likely after stuey for me ..Adams isn’t really first choice 11 anymore. Like others suggest whilst we are winning maybe ross will just be introduced off the bench initially. but I just think maybe the club will see higher ceiling in Alcaraz over stuey especially with the Argentina call up .. stuey is playing better this season though

The trouble is now we have a settled starting like up, to accommodate Stewart someone will have to get dropped, I can’t see it being Arma or smallbone as russ loves both .. most likely to be stuey make way I think and that’s pretty harsh as he’s playing very well at the moment

Tbh I’m alright with this result .. was a pretty weakened side from us .. no sula and Alcatraz .. long away trip to a tricky side like Preston.. 4 wins and two draws in last 6.. is decent form and plenty of improvement still possible.. only slight gripe i guess is that we maybe should of been going full strength in such a tricky fixture ..

Dunno quite a few was claiming he was a 30 m player before last years summer window .. and better then broja apparently 😆.. he has quite a few fans

No he’s just not that good..I think people have seriously overhyped him on here . Mainly for the reason he’s been in the side so much people have gotten to see his other attributes and tried to talk that aspect of his game up., the modern day ormerod or long with slightly differant attributes unfortunately having a striker that couldn’t finish his dinner is about as much good as having a keeper that don’t make saves 😱

Kinda made this point before, but I just think the way we seem to be persisting with this young goalkeeper route is a waste of time.. the goalkeeper market is not that expensive . We could have picked up a decent ready to go keeper instead .. also the chances of us getting huge money/profits on the keeper isn’t that great even if he did turn out good .. don’t mean to be harsh but he was a liability last season and doesn’t seem to be a lot better this,, the team suffers giving him time to learn the ropes and if he does end up reaching the potential most of us are not even seeing he will probably fuck off anyway is it worth it ?

Don’t really agree on this he’s like a hologram and rarely makes saves .. and also has a crappy habit that when does make stops he parries the ball out to opposing player

what’s the point in us letting him make all his mistakes with us would be better off loaning him out if he’s not ready . all this talk of potential with him im not seeing it . Wouldn’t it be great to have a keeper like Niemi again who actually makes crazy stops you wouldn’t expect him to make ?

I think a lot of our opinions on russ are on a knife edge atm me included . But if we look the last 3 fixtures most thought Leeds would hammer us, stoke away also not a given so 7 points from these 3 is acceptable I think.. Too much being made of not beating Rotherham . Let’s guve him another 3 or 4 games and see how he goes

Agree with much of this. We played well vs Rotherham just one of those days. think over the last three games Martin has turned it round a bit can’t really call for the mans head after getting 7 points from the last 9, but it seems. Fragile situation with fans ready to turn after every bad result.

But in that 13 games he scored 10 times, he was killing it,sounds very lambert like In style and clinical Sunderland fans thought he’s premiership quality https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/ross-stewart.1586812/

Not sure why all the hype over piroe.. tbh I think Stewart will be a better signing as long as he retains his abilily after the injury .. he was close to a goal a game last season prior

Still two of the three are proven 20+ goal strikers in this league. Stewart to come in, Mara let’s see .. also we can play with alcaraz false 9 and I’m sure sulamana will chip in some goals. For championship level I think we look quite stocked

Disagree really. I’m not at all a fan of Adams but him and Armstrong have both proven themselves in this league scoring 20 + a season each . Then we have Mara I know a lot of fans think he sucks atm but think it’s a bit unfair to judge him since he’s mainly been a bit part player, he’s getting a load of stick for not impacting a game in the fifteen minutes he gets off the bench but this isn’t easy for any player. Give him a run in the side who knows ? He’s scored goals in the Prem so could step up .

From reading Sunderland’s fans comments on him I get the feeling he could be our new Rickie lambert.. described him as a natural finisher that can score all types of goals decent with both feet and in the air. And also good touch and work rate .. some also thought he was kevin Phillips good . Sounds great

If you tried to look at this debate without the hindsight glasses on though I think you would easily go for our current squad .. The promotion team was basically a mix of players who had stepped up from league one .. even lambert unproven in the championship whilst current squad many have played at prem level some still looking good there like kwp Alcaraz sula .strikers having proven 20 goal seasons like AA and Adams’.. i think it would be hard to argue the promotion team look better on paper if you didn’t already they got promoted and went on to better

Any non vpn type streams ?
