You don't know what you're missing. It was a cracking season. I'm not kidding on here, it was, and I'd wager there's plenty of lads on here would agree with me.

I class myself as a sensible poster but the more I think of this you can't dress this window up any other way than disappointing.
Baffling how we haven't signed a striker, serious head scratching stuff.
Extremely disappointed with M'Vila especially after how the day started and we all thought he was coming. Spending £5 million on Paddy McNair and £13.5 on an unproven lad when a proven player is available is what's going to stick in people's throats and quite rightly so.
We may have a pre contractual agreement. But for me the buzz that it would have given the club/fans etc on securing a top class player who obviously loves it here would have been worth more than spunking it on a 'one for the future' from Man Utd FFS
Wonder if we hear anything from Moyse on it?

Maybe, just maybe, M'Vila wasn't prepared to leave Rubin without his contract being paid up by them? That would explain why Rubin wanted a fee from Sunderland and why we werent prepared to pay it.

Essentially they would rather pay someone a reported 100k a week for the next 3 or 4 months to do nothing than accept anything less than, again, a reported 7mil.

Wasn't aware of keeper no fair play. Borini out for months? Sorry but if watmore or asoro have to start as our main striker for more than 1 or 2 games I will be very worried mate!

There's nothing wrong with having faith in Asoro but we needed some extra experience in there - Ulloa would have been ideal.
2-3 months without Borini, any injury to Defoe and we're knackered.

We get £100m for staying here. Do we fuck man, the players and agents do. Has that not been demonstrated over the past few weeks?

I dont think we should pay 7 mil to release someone from there final 3 or 4 months of contract

Very very strange if true like, this whole deal has been bizarre like

One of them nine could have been a striker though is what I'm saying and that isn't short's call. Fully agree we absolutely needed one and that is the biggest crime of the window.
Also, going back to Mvilla. ...people on here need to FUCK OFF saying 'done deal ' when a transfer fee hasn't even been agreed. We must have the worst itk's in the country. It's been f***ing shite on here with the Mvilla threads. I could tag and name names but I can't even be arsed. You know who are you f***ing thundercunts.

Why do people keep saying this? We'd not be paying 7m to sign him on a 6 month deal, it'd be 7m for 4/5 years

Imagine if Sunderland had done what Rubin seem to have done according to the information and reports available to us. There would be hell on on here

After signing N'Dong I actually agree.
If we didn't then we'd probably have had to because of the desperate situation we would have been in.
Hopefully he signs in January though

Relax man marra i've had 44 years of this man,this is Sunderland and i've sort of accepted who and what we are,we get the players none of the big boys are interested in,every now and then we get a bargain i.e Phillips or Kone but we don't compete with Man Utd or City in the transfer market,this season was the most optimistic i've been in years then bang Big Sam left and for me personally the whole feel of the club changed for the worse,a decent cup run and a 14th place finish would be great to me personally but you've just got to be realistic.
