If this comes off, all that Baines business is forgotten and he becomes a legend. I see this as he felt guilty that he didn't sign a new contract before utd got him on the cheap. By buying Gibson and Oviedo that's just giving us what we should have had in compo.

Not sure how he thinks assembling the old Everton team that never really hit any heights is going to save Sunderland when they are all many years older now though... :Blink:

If 3 or 4 of them can produce half what they did for Everton then they have a small chance, which is a gaping chasm better than he has without them. After all, they just need to get enough points to stay up for now.
I think Oviedo is the only signing of note so far though.

He inherited a mess, but he's not really doing much by way of cleaning it up currently, but I still think he will keep them up.

Agreed Oviedo would be the one to buy if you were trying to improve the squad, he is the right age, good attacking full back. But the rest i'm not so sure about Lescott went down with Villa and didn't seem too bothered, Pienaar was past it the 2nd time we bought him, Gibson I think is just collecting the money having seen his career slide from man utd to Sunderland and Victor is nothing more than a back up option. It's fair to say if we put out a team containing those players we wouldn't be happy, I don't think Sunderland supporters will be either.

Agreed, he has had to buy terrible players, who else would go there tbf?
But after he did something really weird to Anichebe and made him start playing, and adding Oviedo, Janzzuaj to Defoe, if Gibson can last a few games they may have enough between them to actually stay up... That would make them happy I am sure....

Whatever happens, it's really not going to be pretty football is it?
 

He has actually spent more money on buying these old crocks than he did buying them whilst they were in the prime.

Moyes has got to be one of these people who dreams of seeing a Friends reunion, the man can't find any answers for the present and so clings unflinchingly to the past.
