    David Moyes: Sunderland boss paints downbeat picture for transfer window

    Despite sitting 19th, Sunderland have won four of their last 11 matches
    Sunderland manager David Moyes says any new signings will struggle to make a significant impact on his team's fortunes after admitting his transfer budget is "limited with a big L".

    The Black Cats currently sit second from bottom in the Premier League.

    "I'd be kidding if I said the players we're going to bring will massively make a big difference," said Moyes, 53.

    "We probably couldn't get that level of player and probably wouldn't have the finances."

    He added: "To suggest the players we bring in would be making a big difference, I think, wouldn't be correct."

    Moyes refused to confirm any truth in a reported £10m move for Norwich midfielder Robbie Brady.

    The Scottish manager has also been linked with a move for Phil Jagielka - who he worked with at Everton - and Leicester striker Leonardo Ulloa.

    "I think we have been linked with about four of five players this week and I can tell you that of the players we're in for, it's none of them," added the former Manchester United boss.

    At the same stage of last season, Sunderland were 18th with three more points than they have acquired in the current campaign.

    Then-manager Sam Allardyce signed midfielder Jan Kirchoff, defender Lamine Kone and winger Wahbi Khazri, with all three helping the north-east club to claim 21 points from their last 17 matches of the season to survive.

    Despite their lowly position, Sunderland are just a point from safety and have four wins from their last 11 league games.


    interesting comment, we are in for the Moroccan.

    Can't say we weren't warned but it doesn't make it any more palletable, we Defo need a miracle this season bigger than anything else we've seen in recent years.

    With a week to go, you're looking at free transfers.

    Lescott being the level.

    So...

    Robbie Keane.

    Sylvain Distin.

    Wilson Palacios.

    Leon Osman.

    Another possibility is Darron Gibson - Everton would probably release him for free.

    With regards to loans, you're limited to two SEASON LONG domestic loans, so I'm not sure if you're in for any others for the last 4 months of the season.

    Fosu Mensah would be a good one, he'll be on low wages and he's a really energetic and enthusiastic player.

    Is Hemel heskey still playing hehe, get the legendary Danny graham back let's have a laugh. Ulloa would be great, But Snodgrass would be better than Brady for about the same price, looks like Hull will cop it now. We should have kept Craig gardner, Phil bardsley, Giacci, Mvilla, Alonso etc, and that list is huge.

    Is he really telling everyone (including the players he`s trying to bring in) that they won`t make much difference because they`re not very good?

    Don`t see how that`s a good idea,

    Me neither
    Negativity just breeds negativity. I'm all for him saying it as it is but what kind of message is that for potential signings...

    Yes , he should be telling them how he looks forward to the benefits to the team their efforts will make- big them up- give them confidence and a purpose.
