    Big earner? Maybe he wants to go as Sunderland have shown absolutely no ambition this summer? Who knows? Their fans seem gutted so that tells you something. Cathcart, Britos, Prodl, Kabasele, Kaboul and Hoban is a very decent and experienced set of centre backs.

    As opposed to a rather unglamorous low/midtable premier league side like us?

    My Sunderland friend told me that they love Kaboul, but are in debt due to spending too much £ on average players.

    Still think we could do with another CB myself.

    I remember him playing for Spurs against us in an FA Cup game under Dyche, he was the best player on the pitch by a mile that day

    Very, very solid signing. What a week.

    Think he would be a decent signing IF he can stay fit

    Read on a Sunderland forum that some of them will go and support Newcastle if he leaves.

    He's THAT ****ing good.

    I see what you're doing here, but $ and visibility are the difference, besides the fact that I obv wasn't comparing to us, just to his exalted ambitions in terms of PSG.

    Same here. It seems he was yet another decent player to fall foul of the Tottenham curse that turns good players sh1te.

    Like Capoue and Gomes he proved he his a quality player when he left for someone else.

    Ok well it seems the weight of evidence is against me. Whenever I've seen him he has been awful and reports admittedly 6m or longer ago were poor but if the Sunderland fans are genuinely that gutted....are you sure they're not hiding the bunting and balloons under their desks until the ink is dry ??

    Suck my b*lls Sunderland! Even if he doesn't play for us, it's good to weaken a rival.

    Ps I also moaned about our signing of McClelland after watching him live when he put in an embarrassingly awful game for rangers at Aberdeen. Turned out to be the best centre half we've ever had.

    We need another top-flight class, experienced CB.

    Kabul's looked very good in every game I've seen him in since the New Year, including at City on Saturday when they were unlucky to lose.

    Gomes & Capoue love him.

    Sunderland fans love him.

    Affordable & he wants to come here.

    What's not to like?

    Rumour has it they're handing back their season tickets in droves and trying to get at the owners!

    He counts as homegrown right? Top signing if so in my opinion.

    Is that a joke?

    According to Wikipedia, he's been in the UK since 2007, so yes, he comfortably qualifies.
     
  21. The Whoosh Magnet

    The Whoosh Magnet Academy Graduate

    But he was 21 then so doesn't qualify
     
  22. wfcSinatra

    wfcSinatra Predictor Choker 14/15

    Don't confused bad ball playing ability for bad defending.

    I can see why someone who watches MOTD would think he's not good because he does look awfully uncomfortable with the ball at his feet but if you look at the defending alone he's great, good tackling, great in the air, aerial threat defending and attacking corners, deceptively quick, strong and been in a relegation battle or two. Vocal in the back line as well. Great asset.

    Only drawback for me is that he's not HG and that probably means bye-bye Vydra :( unless Paredes, Arlauskis & Suarez get moved on.

    Wrap this up for £4-5 million and announce Perereya and I will be thoroughly delighted.

    So how come Anya qualifies, even though he didn't come to the UK until 4 years ago?

    Just noticed moog and The Whoosh Magnet are logged on at the same time, so he must be someone else's troll, or just a troll.

    Was at Wycombe Wanderers and Northampton (I think) for 3 years before he was 21.

    You mean when he came back to the UK - he was previously here and is Scottish by nationality.

    This is brilliant, we have so many players to boo about this season!

    With Suarez going that only really leaves Iggy & Nyom for the boo boys. Once Iggy starts scoring again that's him ruled out too.

    Poor old Nyom

    You don't even need to do that.

    Have two different browsers open (e.g. Chrome and Firefox), log into one on your main account and log into the other on the troll account.
