One things for sure, it’s incredible business by Sunderland from start to finish

I reckon the professional scouts at Dortmund may have watched him a little bit more than you have. There’s a chance they might be in a better position than you are to judge his talent and potential

I haven’t watched nearly enough Sunderland games to know whether he has or hasn’t, neither has any Coventry city fan. The fact he’s played 40 games in a promotion winning side would suggest to me he has been influential. the fact dortmund are willing to pay what they’ve paid suggests they may...

Any comparisons to Rudoni in terms of value are just a lazy narrative, He’s 19 and has already played 109 championship games and been influential in promotion to the premier league. has all the potential to be a very good player, doetmund will make a profit on him.

Does he still have a release clause, I thought 65m? So itll be a % of 65 no matter where he goes

A lot of what we have been able to do with King at the helm has happened because of MR's legacy of work before he arrived. There is no Haji Wright, Ellis Simms, MVE, Rudoni.... without MR's past work. He has more credit in the bank with DK than Lowe had with Ridsdale. That was the comparison...

Bury famously went bust because they weren't working on a shoestring budget, when he won promotion there

His record does not have 2 promotions in 7 years on a shoestring budget, an FA cup semi-final and a playoff final on it

He was, and he's been injured for the majority of the time he's been there, wonder if boro reckon they have got their moneys worth. If we'd have wasted more than we can afford on a loan who went on to start 4 games in 5 months I'd suggest that goes against what we are trying to build here

But the deal wasn't received/agreed until very late, we probably did try to get perms done but the didn't come off. I'm glad we didn't get desperate and throw money at something just to get someone in. They clearly thought Ayari was going to be better than he was.

I cut the body off my plastic pig and threw the head on, Robins saw it, he only speaks facts

It's not just his work between the sticks, the whole defensive unit is just more organised and working better with him as a part of it

And it stays as a nice pocket of space as their defenders become more concerned about putting their hands in the air

A bellend next to me screamed "You're offside Wright" as Collins was taking a goal kick

As did the MIllwall comms on Saturday
