    Defoe to Ipswich 😳😳
    He’s 38 which makes him the wrong type 😉😉
    I have already bet my mortgage that he will score against us when we play them

    He scored 4 in 15 for rangers last season, he is 38! I doubt he is the 20 goal + striker needed for promotion

    Max Power has suffered some horrific abuse from some Sunderland supporters.

    Talented player for this level, would quite like him here that’s for sure.

    I don’t really rate Power. Was very good when younger but despite his age he’s declined quite rapidly

    Just the fact of Ipswich signing Defoe, if he goes, you know he still has the ability for this level. He might not get 20 goals but if he comes off the bench most games, there is nothing to say he couldn’t replicate what Aneke done for us this season.

    Exactly, that's why I am so keen to get Aneke resigned.  You need stricker on the bench, better having one that's highly likley to score........

    Max Power a decent player ...
    Only 27 years old as well.
    The type of player we should be targeting. 
    Player being released by Sunderland? No thanks.

    Unless he's been released for reasons other than the fact they dont want him?

    Not signing, too expensive for them.

    Genuinely thought max power was about 35.  He’s a crab midfielder, could probably do a good job for us but wouldn’t get over excited that’s for sure.

    What the captain of a team that finished 4th in the league we are trying to get out off? 
    Max Power would be a good signing for us at this level.

    They offered Rhodes about 3 million quid for 3 years, no idea how it was structured, but it's a lot of money either way.  They are either offering the world to people they know they can't get or are very serious. 
  • Can I have a few more greens please @Dazzler21

    There you go 
  • Would love to get Piggott back, but as others have said Luton seems obvious with Nathan Jones there whom rated him so highly in our youth teams.

    From what I've seen their fans seem happy he's gone.

    O'Nien is being linked with Portsmouth apparently.

    Few years ago now but did well alongside Alex Gilbey when they won League One with Wigan

    Also played for Tranmere so even a link to Nigel Adkins ;)
    Adkins and Power were both born in Birkenhead.

    That is mainly because he took a shot from about 40 yards out in the playoff semi-final (which was very stupid) and wasted one of their last chances. 
    Him going off injured in the playoff final against them was a big moment in the game. He would be a good player here.

    But then again, I was also confident Maddison was going to smash it for us so what do I actually know

    Yes, a player released by a team that didn't get past the Play off's semi's.

    Not sure if anything's been mentioned on here but according to Cawley Pigott and Mullin from Cambridge won't be signing... Not even heard Mullin linked

    He's horribly unpopular with Sunderland fans... any idea why? From what i've seen he's bits and pieces midfield player.

    Wait til you hear about the players Curbishley used to sign from relegated teams, or the players Powell signed from League One relegated sides and non-league

    Power might be unpopular with the Sunderland fans but Yann hardly came with the endorsement of the Leicester lot - obviously Powell knew better but it's not always about fan opinion.*

    * Except mine obviously as I am right about everything always.

    Wiggins and Hollands both missed out in the play-offs with Bournemouth before joining us, didn’t work out here with them either... 🙃

    Read and liked as tongue in cheek which I think the upside down head emoji indicates, but 🥴 if not.

    Yes, 100% sarcasm. They were fantastic for us.

    I always assumed the upside down head emoji to mean being silly, sarcasm or joking.
