Not just that - Another striker to shoe-horn onto the wing.... I'm kidding -- Looks really promising. Bags of pace. Something we've really lacked. Now, if we can get a play-maker who can pick out a pass to put him through on goal....

Yup, the only way you can play that formation is with 2 VERY attacking full backs. Not Ramirez. It's more the old German-style 5-3-2

Christ, that's a good one! - I barely remember that!

You've just named another 'gazumpee' I can remember that. He went to Sheff Weds, and Norway were playing a day or 2 later on Eurosport, so I settled down to watch it to see what we missed out on and he scored a damn 40 yard thunder-bolt volley!

I loved TeamTALK. Remember the Vialli rumours? Used to phone it all the time!

Maynard wanted a £1,000,000 signing on fee. Fact.

Spot on. It was when Souness came in and we had about 11 foreign lads on trial. Can remember watching it on South Today.

DaMarcus Beasley. Sturrock actually used the term too to describe it.

If he was 7 million then yes. But they ain't never going to take a hit like that on the transfer fee.

Think that ended when we opted for Steve Davis.

Whilst we aren't desperate for centre-mids, I'd still understand it if we moved for Biglia. I wouldn't really understand it if we made a move for Spearing. (Good player, don't get me wrong, but Biglia's in a different league -- Literally).

Good thread, supersonic. Always like reading up to see how ex players are getting on.

Ah, OK. Shame, 2 million sounds a relative bargain.

When did Nige say that? I missed that.

Someone else mentioned this kid a week or so ago, I can't remember who it was. Looks promising. Shame the Phillips deal seems to have gone cold. He'd have been quality.

I know! That's why there's no way we could've got him. I'm jealous - I quite like Friday eve transfers.

Quality move for them (And for him). Glad he's gone somewhere where he'll finally play week in & week out.

Sky Sports understands Sunderland in talks with Manchester City winger Adam Johnson.

Nothing new.... http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11661/8014033/Yoshida-attracting-interest

So much for wanting European football!

I know. & to think Goodwillie & Heskey were mentioned!

Sweepstake on how long it will take MLG to tell you anyone in the world can update wiki?
