Tommy Watson ( ...off to Brighton)


From BBC Sport.

Brighton and Hove Albion agree a deal worth £10m to sign Sunderland winger Tom Watson this summer.

 
Looking at your posts, it doesn’t appear to have registered that he doesn’t want to play for Sunderland.

& to say if he hadn’t got injured he would have kept Mundle out of the team seems far fetched. Mundle is head & shoulders right now. How they develop as players is to be seen, but the fact that Watson didn’t want to sign a contract is point to all of this.

Mundle wants to play for Sunderland & is a better player.
Nah i'm questioning why (in numerous posts) he dosnt want to play for us and have already listed possible reasons.
Yes mundell wants to play and is a decent enough player, i'm not knocking him. But i dont know of scouts swarming all over mundell like they have Watson. Scouts seem to be swarming all over Watson so hes obviously got something special.
I thought we were meant to be on a path to success and had moved on from shipping out hot prospects. Obviously we dont rate him as highly or we just desperate for the coin.
 
Watson is the first of several who will leave in the summer if we don't go up.

Strap yourselves in.
Been saying it for awhile, this really is a make or break few months for the model and this group. This is the first of four or five that will leave if we don’t go up. I full expect rigg, jobe, cerkin and Neil if they won’t sign a new deal as well as loan players like mepham and le fee to go should we not go up and think that’s being conservative. Huge few months.
