Geertruida

[BoshItLikeBardo]

I’ve got a big tub of bisto, a paint brush and some bedsheets ready to go here.

Not at all but remember were we are in the pecking order FFS. I'm not saying we kiss their arse but it doesn't look well on us, which is why he'll go.

We have zero obligation to Liverpool, the last player we had off them had a broken back ffs

Get Chiesa.

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Would you be happy in his situation? (Taking out your bias towards Sunderland).

Again I'm not the player, and again you don't have a clue what the player is thinking

 

[safcj1973]

Absolutely staggering the way this has been handled. Would not suprise me if he has been unhappy for a while. Club have truly fucked this one up

You literally have no idea how this has been handled

 

[Geras]

Get Chiesa.

Wages .

 

[craigypants]

Just bend over and take it dry according to some on here. Fuck that. We're not in League One anymore lads ffs

Gotta be some AI wizards who can show Le Bris getting ridden by Slot on this one with Geertruida laughing in the background, about to be smacked by Xhaka!

I'm not disputing this? Now answer my point... If Sunderland want to sign a player from either club in the future is it better for Sunderland to have a good rapport or a rapport? Playing hard ball with a squad player who's had his head turned isn't helpful in any way, shape or form.

As I've said I don't accept your point because I don't see any favours from Chelsea or Liverpool. We are now a PL club so I doubt both these clubs want to send us anyone that could kick us on. Losing Geertuida weakens us and I don't see Liverpool giving a fuck.

This place at times !

I'm asking YOU. If you were in his shoes. The fact you've avoided my question numerous times speaks volumes. Have a good day you deluded c*nt.

PS - you're still one of my favourite posters.

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

@Grumpy Old Man If we did go down the road of making his loan permanent at say £18m and then selling on to Liverpool at £30m, how does this affect PSR, I gather it gives us more headroom?

Gives us a £12m profit, as it's all in the same season. If we're signing players of 4/5 year contracts that's £48-60m headroom.

Should have been the first signing through the door. Neither do you mate

Mate lets just agree to disagree

Should have been the first one signed. Through the door as soon as January window opened

 

[Major]

two loans being terminated in a season must be a first. Can’t blame him for going when he’s watching Hume stink it up in midfield from the bench

Or we're palying Hume in Midfield as his head has been turned and he;s pushing for the move.

What have they done to truly f**k it up?

 

[Bears Beets]

The conspiracy theorists and club haters out in force as always.

Just f***ing relax man and see what happens, there will be a plan in place there always is

Absolute horse shite. The player shouldn't be negotiating with anyone, he has an obligation to see out the season with us.

It's not necessarily about favours. It's about having a seat at the negotiation tables when the next time Sunderland want a player from these clubs. If you make their life more difficult (when I don't see what gain Sunderland would get by keeping him when he clearly would jump at the opportunity) then when it comes to bargaining in the future Sunderland won't have a leg to stand on. As the saying goes: choose your battles wisely. This only impacts Sunderland positively or negatively.
