Berno Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Great performance, good work out...even though it was 0-0 it was too easy & Nani seems to have bulked up, just like ronnie did 2 seasons ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bull Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 If Joe has a hollow interest in football and would like some so-called "glory" then I agree with your choice of club. They don't even have to be a great team per se . It could be a good team, an average team or even a below average team that draws their courage from a 5'0 player with a lot of courage or something . I might actually choose a bad team with potential. That way, when they become awesome, I can say I was there all along . Follow the premiership for a few months and pick a team that you think are involved in enjoyable matches. A team around the UEFA Cup qualifying positions would probably be a good choice. I really don't mean to shamelessly plug Spurs - honest. :| It's really rather refreshing that you chose not to just hop straight on to the "Big 4" bandwagon.

John Bull Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 After seemingly changing his mind about a switch to Sunderland, Kaboul has now decided not to join the Black Cats after Harry Redknapp took him to a casino until 4 in the morning. :| Harry. If somebody had told me two weeks ago that we'd manage to get three of the 'Spurs four' I'd have thought they were mad. Malbranque in particular is a player that I've always rated highly and never thought we'd have a chance of attracting. It goes without saying that we still need a few more additions, but I think we can live without Kaboul for now. So instead of just being Ireland and Man Utd reserves, we're now Ireland, Man Utd and Spurs reserves I hear that Pascal Chimbonda has already annoyed Roy Keane by accidentally pinching his car parking space on his first day at training. Steed is a good player and will prove really useful for Sunderland, I think. He pleayed virtually every match for Spurs last season and is a solid little player. Chimbonda has little loyalty but is a good fullback, while Tainio will really give everything for the cause - although he's not the best technically. All in all I think that it's a good bit of business for Sunderland. By the way, Kaboul has just signed for Portsmouth for £6 million.

Michael* Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 From what I've seen in a few of the friendly matches I don't think any of the new signings will disappoint. Tainio should offer some protection to the back four which is something we were really lacking last season, especially away from home. Diouf, Malbranque and Chimbonda will be a huge cut above what we already have at the club. We're still crying out for another striker and a central defender but overall it should be an exciting season for us. What do you make of the new-look Spurs, John?

We're still crying out for another striker and a central defender but overall it should be an exciting season for us. Sunderland did very well against Liverpool, but when Tainio injured (again) Liverpool did get more chances and their midfield did get more passes to Torres and Keane... And you know what then happened... Without Tainio's injure, game was going to be 0-0... Tainio, Diouf, Malbranque and Chimbonda all played well and if Benny and Anton will come to Sunderland, the team will be in 6-10 place in end of the season... Let's hope that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael* Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Maybe Silvestre as well, if today's reports are true. Fingers crossed! (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael* Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 ^Maybe forget that last part, it looks like he's heading to Arsenal. Oh well, it shows that we're moving up in the world - we're now getting our target signings stolen by a better class of club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
