[Nymzee]

I know it's right to worry a little we've lost 25 goals from Lukaku but the 3rd top scorer in our team was own goals IIRC. So taking him and Ross from the team we need to get 31 goals from Rooney, Sandro, Klaassen, Sigurdsson and potentially Giroud.

I think we'll be just fine.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

Raul Jimenez on TV at the minute in that Emirates Cup.

How does he look? He's big, but I just never pictured him as a hold the line type of number 9.

If Grioud or Benteke aren't available, Willan Jose is definitely an interesting choice who brings a bit of what Giroud does to the table and I think is better than Jimenez.

 

[toffeejack]

that's samir nasri with 4 goals and 8 assists in the last 3 seasons combined at 30 years of age, better than gylfi siggurdsson? okay.

 

[flibbyflob]

Makes sense that. Keep forgetting they arnt in the CL.

Add in that he dithers like Moyes used to in over transfers and getting one done will be hard never mind two.

yeah, i like him as a player, but you don't replace a centre back who's out for the year with someone ... who can't be relied upon to stay fit for the majority of the time. It's the same issue we have with trusting besic to be schneiderlin's backup.

James collins on the other hand?

 

[everton2004]

I actually pity the guy......clearly got an issue with alcohol and needs help. The petrol station incident should have been the "rock bottom" point but it seems not.

 

[Petit]

Bring in Giroud and Sig and our squad is far superior than last season. Even with the losses of Rom and Ross.

Add a quality CB and its a dream land.

I agree with that 100 %. If we get Giroud and Sig in yes it`s superior. Rooney, Sandro, Giroud and Sig easily get 10 goals each. Klaassen I would expect another 5, as would I from Mirallas. Davies, Baines, Coleman, Bolasie; Keane are probably good for 2 each.

 

[MikeH72]

He regularly finishes matches as having completed the most aerial duels in the match

Shame they're never won in our penalty area when defending set pieces.

Horrid footballer.

A great watch.
Sunderland in all sorts of problems.
Just what the new gaffer needs on the build up to the season

 

[Bob Latchford]

Rather Nasri than Sigurdsson.

I'd love both

 

[Exeter Gently]

Thomas Vermaelen anyone? He's getting linked with West Brom.

May as well for a loan. No idea what his fitness record is like now though.

Prefer him to either West Ham plank though.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Madness.

Nasri is one bad ted also.

Yeah, good point.
I was looking at it from pure ability when I chatted about wanting them both. He does have a certain unsavoury rep
