Tommy Watson

Just though; Watson could be a £40/50m player in the future. Could be totally worthless aswell mind, but I don't know, think there's potential in him in the future.

To be fair so could adringa, if he kicks on ligue 1 who is to say psg won't splash 40 million on him

True true, mind I think the club will just be happy with the money back right now. Be good business really, get the amortisiation off the books and use the £4/5m per year on someone else.

Agreed

So are you saying you expected him to play less as he is 19.

To be fair that is the case, especially a loan player in a run in. Surely its to be expected that playing the seasoned pros will play more in these crucial games?

Possibly right at this point, but who knows in year or twos time. Chris Rigg looked way off until a few weeks ago, based on his last two games he might look like a £50M player this time next season. Plenty time for Watson to develop even if it looks like we've mugged Brighton right now.

Hope so. We will have a sell on clause.

Just a shame we gave them the money back on Adingra tbh. Honestly think I'd rather have Watson, he has potential.

I agree. However we would easily make money back on adingra.

That’s fine.

You compared him to have the same impact as Clarke in his last season with us

At the same age Clarke was being rubbish on loan at QPR

Clarke was great at QPR

Why would that be offensive? Because I think a loan player who is 19 will play less in a run in?

We probably would have done the same, but instead we’ve put £10m in our bank account.

His goal was worth that and so much more to us. For that, he’ll forever be fondly remembered by Sunderland fans. In fact, should he not be in the Sunderland Hall of Fame along with the rest of team who secured our Premiership promotion?
