I never said it was special. I’m just saying we have clearly got better under the current hierarchy. Some on here, know who they are, love to focus on negatives all of the time.

When we get Mundle back we'll have a fair more balanced team.

As long as Wilson stays fit I wouldn't be that bothered if we didn't sign anyone. That would be a risk though.

So you're happy to take a risk when promotion could be there for the taking?

Leaving us with only two strikers till the end of the season (when we're in a great position) would be a huge risk.

The last four years have been positive apart from 6 months.

I see what you're saying, but 2 of those were in Div 1 (as was the year before) so I really don't see anything positive about those. There has been an improvement over how bad it was, but still nowt to write home about in my opinion. So haven't been great, lets see what happens in the next couple of days, could be defining.

The manager said yesterday that le fee is only playing out wide ATM because Watson and mundle are injured. So errrr naa

The chances of both our left wingers being out for over a couple of months at the same time are long but that's just our luck with injuries.

The last calendar year or so we've had 2 ACL's, 2 broken legs and numerous other injuries too. The 4 injuries above are totally random, not linked to training or rehabilitation as no doubt someone will chip in shortly to say our physios are shit :rolleyes:

You've got the right idea, puts you on a right downer.

"Sunderland miss out"

"Sunderland starlet set to leave"

"Sunderland unsure when transfer deadline ends"

I’m pretty chilled about the window tbf.

As it stands we’re on course for playoffs, that’s where we are after half a season. Cutting out the late goals conceded is probably easier than signing a player, integrating them and then increasing the ppg to get into the top 2.

Like everyone there’s a few positions it would be nice for us to strengthen but we could strengthen and still end up in the playoffs.

It's a poor window for me if nobody else comes in. Just smacks of being happy with the playoffs and happy to take a few gambles on positions where we are short.

I think its mental how much we are just sitting on our hands

I’d like to see us sign a RW. I think that’s the area where we’d see the biggest change because the goal output from that side of the pitch is nearly non-existent.

Of course everyone would like a striker but I’m not losing sleep about not getting Cannon or Diaz.

He’s not injured now. He’s building up with the 21s.

Aye but we aren't currently on a situation where if he plays Wilson and mayenda, which happens sometimes, we don't have a forward on the bench.

Can't get my head around it.

Canon and BBD would have been back ups to Wilson. Poor long term signings.

We've took 4 points off Burnley, should have been 6, we'd have been above them if we'd scored a penalty or 2.

We have signed a player who might be able to shine in the Premier League. I'm happy with that.
