RE: 2015/16 Football Season - MurdnunoC - 31 Aug 2015
(31 Aug 2015, 6:49 pm)MrFozz I remember you the same this time last year, I am of the same opinion these days, given Borini hardly played last season, I reckon a few Sunderland supporters struggle to see past the goals he scored against Newcastle and the League Cup Final...
You never know, it might turn out good, I a certain striker signing back in 1997 who became a prolific goal scorer in his fee seasons...
At the a lot of a people said 'Kevin Who'
I think there's a world of difference between Kevin Phillips and Fabio Borini.
Phillips was moving onwards and upwards with his move to Sunderland; it was largely recognised as career advancement. Borini, on the other hand, has a few decent outings at Sunderland while being on loan from Liverpool, snubbed Sunderland for whatever reason, then lingered on the subs bench for most of last season. He may well undergo a career resurgence, who knows? But I don't think it's possible to draw comparisons between a progressive Phillips and a stagnant Borini.

Good point mate...maybe Kevin Phillips is a poor comparison
I think we can at least agree with each other on, his value.
I must say he did grab some valuable goals, which without them, may have Sunderland relegated in 2014...But as you have said last year, he needs to be doing that every week as that is what he is employed to do
2015/16 Football Season - MrFozz - 31 Aug 2015
I think what I was trying to say about Kevin Phillips was the fact a lot of my friends did not expect much of him as he was unknown, and although Borini is well known, people may not expect much from onlt to be surprised later, he may prove people wrong.
Borini is not the worst forward, but I rate him over Fletcher and anyone else Sunderland recenty had, Altidore and Whickham.
One thing I would like to see at Sunderland this season is Duncan Watmore getting more playing as he seems to have turned games around when he comes on

REMINDER, ITS A 6PM DEADLINE THIS YEAR!
We need to sign a defender...
RE: 2015/16 Football Season - MrFozz - 01 Sep 2015
Why 6pm I thought it was 5 normally?
I see Adnan Januzaj has to Germany on Loan, despite Sunderland being interested in taking hin on loan

Normally midnight but this year because its landed a day after bank holiday or something its 6pm.... also another reason is because UEFA or whoever want the teams euro squads.... -.-

RE: 2015/16 Football Season - Michael - 01 Sep 2015
Sunderland AFC have completed the signing of defender DeAndre Yedlin on a season-long loan deal from Tottenham Hotspur.
RE: 2015/16 Football Season - MrFozz - 01 Sep 2015
They were also trying for Jonathan De Guzman who turned down Sunderland and some Colombian who, despite a.supposed fee of £16m, Sunderland apparantly tried to drop the fee to £12m
