Adam Johnson

Joined Sunderland.

Mancini has been bitching about their lack of transfer activity again as well hasn't he?

Can see them signing a couple next week.

Could do well for them, tbh.

Ha, city's empire crumbles. This is the beginning of the end, nqat.

Decent player, did he turn down the vermin then?

Could do with shitneck leaving now.

What a signing that is. I think they made a mistake there.

Who??

Johnson out and Sinclair in weakens City.

Rodwell in and De Jong out the same. They would have been better off doing £#%&! all this summer.

Loving Mancini's incessant whining about lack of players signed. I hope Swansea £#%&! them off for Sinclair (No idea why he would want that move anyway) and De Rossi maintains his stance and they sign £#%&! all. What is it, about £150m a year for 3 years and now they're bitching after 1 quiet window :shakehead:

thats what i thought when i first heard about Sinclair going there

but i guess in Mancini's defence his relationship with Johnson isn't the best. so i getting in someone else that can do the same job for you but actually wants to play for you was too good to resist

i just have my doubts as to whether Sinclair has the character to hold his own in that squad full of egos

Sky Sports understands that Man City and Swansea have been unable to agree a fee for Scott Sinclair.

Shame, tbh. He's shite.

saw mancini crying about the lack of transfers and the need to strengthen...

£#%&! me, is he stupid?

the amount of money he's £#%&!ed on that team, only for them to beat froggleson's shit @#%&!s by GD is insane and then the next season he says he needs more....

he is to football managers what gordon the gopher is to formula 1.... the £#%&!ing @#%&!.

Thought they'd slow down with their transfers a bit this summer, but didn't expect this really

Rodwell and struggling to got Scott Sinclair, who'd have thunk it.

Not sure how many injuries they have besides Ageuro and Clichy being unavailable for the match, but their squad looked shit against the scousers, alot of average players in there,
I never thought we'd see them do next to nothing and arguably reduce the quality of their squad. Are they afraid of FFP?

Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Toure, Kolarov, Toure, De Jong, Milner, Tevez, Nasri, Balotelli.

Subs: Pantilimon, Lescott, Dzeko, Savic, Rodwell, Silva, Razak.

Last year Sunderland were pretty decent defensively, but were a bit toothless going forward. Bringing in Johnson, Fletcher, Saha and probably now Dempsey, while retaining Sessignon and McClean certainly goes some way to addressing that weakness.

If the name of the game for mid table teams in post season is to upgrade the quality of your squad while not losing your better players, then I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out that Sunderland have done the best business of anyone in the Prem during this window.

They had a midfield of Kolaraov-Yaya Toure-Rodwell-De Jong and Milner in the second half against Liverpool, almost the complete stylistic opposite to Utd in that it was populated entirely by athletes and workhorses.

Very reliant on Silva and Aguero to give that little bit of flair. Nasri flatters to deceive the vast majority of the time, not a player that Utd should be worried about missing out on.
