🗞️ Sunderland 'ready to make bid' for £15m Premier League attacker, Leeds United already 'holding talks' - report

Pope says we've had talks but he's not sure if Southampton want him to go. Player keen.

Batts, you can add Piroe to the slower than me club.

Target…straight no.
Archer…loan only. I doubt Boro are going to stump up £15m of the Lathe money on him.
If we are talking to the Saints about loan with obligation, let’s get Ramsdale.

Don, I often think how you'd fare against Joel.
Reckon it'd be close.

I'm at that point in the window where I'd wish it was
60 second countdown to it shutting. Frustrating.

Morning all🌞.

My take on this … if (and that’s a ferrucking huge ‘IF’, all grown up, shaving in the morning and eating a double-full-english with 3 mugs of builders) … if we do sign anybody in this window … why the ferruckk do we always have to wait until the closing bell has been rung?

Isn't Targett a left back? In which case, we've got a surplus of left backs (after 10 years of not having a decent one!) so why is he even being considered? What we need is a keeper and a top-class 9 or 10.

I’m hearing Firpo want to go to Spain and not just for footy. Family too.

Not sure if it’s true but it would make sense of us looking at another left back.

If it’s rubbish, then like you, I think we have no need.

Firpo is out of contract in the summer, surely makes sense for us to see it out...he'll be in Spain early May if it all pans out!
