Alexandre Mendy (transfer rumour)

[Dodgy]

And knowing macanthony he'd probably want 2 or 3m for him. I'd sooner spend that on someone who knows where the net is. Who's to say the young lads we already have on our books won't get better with league game time.

Previous evidence suggests they won't get that much better. They probably will improve but I just don't think any of them look like they'll improve anywhere near enough to be what we're looking for.

had a very good pre-season, his pressing created a good few of the goals

Ha'way Cam lad..Mayenda was ok in pre season.

I think the squad is a lot better than some think also, Beale and Dodds' tactics really affected how we played, playing a negative style when the squad is full of attacking talent is never gonna work. Yes we need a couple strikers 100% but we didn't need a whole rebuild I still only think we need 3-4 players including 2 strikers...

This, people can't see how those two held us back

That in itself puts him miles ahead of the other two.

So he's not signing then?

No news either way.

Hope there are other irons in the fire; this deal is dead.

It isn’t dead and I really hope I’m wrong but I don’t think there is

He was canny mate but it's completely unfair on him to be our main man going into the new season. Le Bris said as much as the weekend.

If we don't sign at least two proven strikers before the window ends Speakmans, already untenable position, has got to be ended.

Imagine if we don't sign even one man! He needs hoisted up the flag poll outside the main entrance by his grease little kegs!

Really really really can’t see us signing 2 proven strikers.

Don’t hold your breath.

 

[CARLOS CLASS]

This isn't great - feels like (again) there was some growing positive vibes around the club and (again) they have been strangled and extinguished by a lack of urgency and failure to create momentum

Ffs!!!!!!

 

[Vauxie]

Hows about Rossco on loan if he passes a medical like.

We need two CF's anyway, I know he knocked us back last time but how about Jay Stansfield on loan at least in addition to Mendy or a n other if this deal is goosed.

There can't be anyone in our fan base that can defend Speakman or KLD on the 1st September if that's the case. Honestly they are taking the piss out of each and every one of us. 583 days man

 

[Di Canios Knees]

Are we going to see a bigger public meltdown by a player if this doesn’t go through than we did with M’Vila’s “I called Sunderland but they didn’t answer ” instagram?

 

[Vauxie]

Think we must have other irons in the fire, this one has gone cauld.

Some will still defend him, but,but,but we tried

Listen mate, everyone hangs on your word, so this type of post doesn’t help, just stick with the positive stuff or cam will implode

That would be idea for me like, but can’t see it happening.

A striker who is semi-proven at this level on loan would be alright, an U21 PL striker
