Jhon Lucumi - Transfer Rumour

[Pacific]

this club at the minute man

the ambition we're showing is staggering tbh

and i still think we'll end up with another big money striker/winger

 

[Fetch Fletch]

He’ll have been sitting with a git big stott on after Saturday’s performance

Probably explains Shearers silence he knew

Nothing can convince me we’re not after Openda like

 

[Eddie Hitler]

Are we not getting ahead of ourselves? It only says we've submitted another bid

It’s more the ambition of the club mate. It’s f***ing insane

 

[Roker Mackem]

I cant cope

 

[Fetch Fletch]

We need to start a chant of “you paid for their flights” when we play the mags.

 

[woodlebert]

I mentioned how Lucumi and an aerially dominant CB would be a ridiculous pairing. Maybe to @woodlebert ?

our other two certainly bring that

these CB options would be ridiculous if we pull off Lucumi.

I think the fact Fabrizio is tweeting this now saying it’s our first official bid despite conversations all summer and now the player saying he wants the move, this might finally move quickly.

how are we potentially going to have

Ballard
Lucumi
Alderete
Mukiele
Reinildo
O’Nien

as CB options for a newly promoted side. Good lord man.

You did, it was a good shout. All about partnerships, and as you rightly said, Mepham/Ballard with O’Nien was a similar thing. One aerially dominant and ok on the ball with a better passer.

This is a really exciting time to be a Sunderland fan

It can’t keep going on like this, can it?

imagine that, this lad and Openda. That’s a squad that can challenge nearer the top than bottom.

Said it yesterday.
We haven’t made a squad for survival, we’ve made one for Europe

I think that anarl mucka.

 

[Get the Rave On]

Holy shite. Thought this was dead as a door nail. That £20 put on us at 33/1 to finish top half looking good

 

[Antidotes]

Can't help but think the Premier League will be alarmingly worried if we still somehow go down, coz what hope does any team have of bridging the gap if even this level of ambition isn't still enough. We might start getting the PGMOL favourtism

 

[splorty]

Think it’s 16/1 now

 

[Shieldsman]

Hard to believe but having seen plenty of Lucumi I’d say he’d become our best defender. Up there with the best CBs in the division IMO

Stats suggest he’s very weak in the air?

 

[Sunderlandellight]

should allow Zak Johnson to go on loan

He can drive the bus and take about 17 others with him. The squad is bulging now.

 

[YorkMackem]

Holy shite. Thought this was dead as a door nail. That £20 put on us at 33/1 to finish top half looking good

I feel a bit silly now. I don't normally bet, ever, but stuck money on us being top promoted team and to stay up.

 

[Sunderlandellight]

Ballard will lift him up.

 

[Pacific]

genuinely wouldn't be surprised if we submit an offer at some point. whether we can get him or not is another thing

we've signed about 100m worth of midfielders. if we get Lucumi that'll be more than 50m or so worth of defenders including the keeper. don't know exact figures obviously but must be something along those lines

i just don't see them spending all that and then chancing it with not signing a known quantity striker

 

[blackcat]

Holy shite. Thought this was dead as a door nail. That £20 put on us at 33/1 to finish top half looking good

I actually thought this may still be a goer when we didn’t give Mukiele number 6 leaving it empty

Keeping it for Jhon

 

[Dan The Man]

Would mean we wouldn’t have any wingers in the pitch though. Can’t see them paying that much out on wingers not to play them

Gives us plenty options. Personally I hope we never play a back five. I know it was the championship but we looked f***ing shocking everytime we tried to play it

But never under Regis and now with players bought that can play there
