Confirmed hull sign Huddleston

Not open for further replies.

I don't even think we were interested anyway. Journalists probably just putting two and two together to make five because we've dealt with Spurs quite frequently over the last few summers.
 
He seems to split opinion but I genuinely think he's excellent and a player I have always wanted to see at Sunderland. Really good and unexpected signing for them.
 
I might be a lone voice in the wilderness here but I'm disappointed. Think Di Canio had identified Huddlestone as an ideal player to fit the system he wants to play and for whatever reason we have missed out.

I'm hoping its because another player as suitable has become available but fear its a financial decision based on the players fitness history.

Ah well, we move on and if this window proves anything the next link to an unknown player will be along anytime soon ......
 
Stepped aside again.

Insigne, Peruzzi, Orban, Huddlestone - how many more? :neutral:

Get a grip man. I'm not convinced that we were in for Insigne or Huddlestone with any conviction, we may have enquired. Peruzzi we chose not to go for after medical advice and Orban chose to go elsewhere. Shit happens, it's hardly the end of the world. The club are looking to completely overhaul the playing staff, that means bringing in a lot of players, we were never going to be able to get all of our targets (genuine or papertalk!)
 
He isnt shite but I am relieved. He is better than what he have but there are too many question marks over him for me. Our signings this summer have question marks all over them adding another maybe is not what we need. We need someone who we know will be a good player to play next to Cabral who we hope will be one.
