Which could point to Vint. But I doubt he has any contact with the club anymore.
Hope someone bids for him soon or there's a chance he'll be at stamford bridge doing an Odemwingie on 31st of August
That would be funny though. Play havoc with our rebuilding plans but very funny nonetheless.
Didn't know Mariner was from Chorley. If Walshy has spoken to him I guarantee he won't be best pleased at being quoted on national TV.
Guess he hasn't kicked on mate. Only bit I've seen of him was on the last day of the 15/16 away to Watford and he did ok maybe Grayson will see more in him than Moyes did
That was pretty much the same time as he played against us. He'd just won the P2 player of the month award IIRC. Maybe it was just a purple patch he was going through at the time that he hasn't been able to replicate.
We should be looking down our nose at these clubs. Put together they haven't won half as many league titles as Everton have. The media and the monopoly the sh1te have over it have done a wonderful job in forgetting Everton's importance in English football. Everton had more title's then Manchester utd when football was invented in 1993.Do you not think as a fan base we are pretty arrogant though. Almost snobbish. I sometimes liken us to the old aristocracy from the 17/1800s, turning our noses up at the "new money" clubs like Chelsea and City, whilst at times being downright condescending to wannabees like West Ham, Stoke, Newcastle and Southampton. Begrudgingly allowing parity with the likes of Spurs, Arsenal, United and the RS.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with this by the way. if I'm honest I probably think that way myself. I just think it's amazing that, as a group, we are still able to hold onto this sense of superiority given that the majority of our fans haven't even tasted any sustained success over the last 30 years or so. Obviously our young fans are being well groomed in the old traditions.
As regards loans though, it is arrogant of us I agree, but the fact is Sunderland are now in the second tier, do have big finance issues by all accounts, and in all likelihood, will be looking to take on loan high quality young players. We have two or three that fit the bill so why not?
Muriel.... 13 goals nine assists SWERVE. lol
good player in that league, though not prolific, probably averages 10 goals a season, im not sure about the premier league though, its a bit more physical and not everyone can adapt. His release clause is rumored to be 28m euros (or £24.65m) which is OK money in the current crazy transfer fee world. Sevilla are also interested and finished 4th in la liga last year, so can offer champions league, but we can offer more in wages surely.
