New Head Coach

Hes also been injured for most of the last 18 months

Simms one is the best example, he got slagged non stop by a load of our fans for his lack of workrate etc but now hes on fire they are saying we should have signed him no matter what

 

I think he’s improved an awful lot. Really impressed with him on Sunday. Handful.

 

Me included.

I watched him closely during a couple of games and he really couldn't be bothered.

What's the point of 'bribing' someone to come to Sunderland when their heart's not in it.

Would Mbappe try as hard at Sunderland as he would at Man City ...

... the answer is 'no'.

Besides, not everyone sees the attraction of Roker Beach and Penshaw Hill.

 

Yep was excellent. The improvement from even the start of the season is drastic, Robins being an ex striker probably has something to do with it

 

Think he benefits from Wright being up high close to him, means defenders cant double mark him

I like simms, always have, as hes got the raw attributes youd look for in a CF - still very raw as his link up play isnt great (improving but very sloppy with his passing at times)

 

Idiots.

 

I’m one of them tbh.

 

probs cos he is being used correctly and being coached the way he needs to be coached.
no my cup of tea, but what do i know.
i was 1 of his slaggers, and still stick by it.

OH and if anyone is interested Will Still had a French scout/agent here on Saturday.
However WHU have already spoken to Will, no idea about what, but they defo have.
I was told Still is a big WHU fan.

 

west ham are going for amorim

 

edit dm, just seen it doesn't look likely anymore that

 

Would imagine if West Ham are serious about still he goes there, hard to turn down prem football let along prem football with the team you support

 

Would be typical of our luck if he is our number one target, so we wait for him until the end of the season and he goes to West Ham.

 

I can’t see West Ham going for Still. They’ll want someone with a lot more experience imo. We’ll soon find out I suppose…

 

personally think it could be potter for west ham

Consensus in the French media seems to be that he’s downed tools in preparation for a summer move to England. I think he’ll end up here.

 

Reims certainly struggling of late. 2 wins in 13.

 

Agree there and I reckon he’d do a good job. They’ve got some cracking players already and no doubt have money to spend.

 

Yeah hell of a risk for a prem club, unless they have a gingers only policy there

 

i thought that mate, great fit.

 

Is Moyse definitely away ?
