igsey Posted 13 April, 2017 Share Posted 13 April, 2017 Sigurdsson will go to a team bigger than us, as great as he would be here. Pickford will also be in demand, though his choices may be more limited if he wants to be a guaranteed starter every week. Depends on what our plans are for Fraser. I don't think there's anyone I'd take from Middlesbrough apart from Valdez, but again that depends on Fraser.

Mattio Posted 13 April, 2017 Share Posted 13 April, 2017 I have it on good authority that Pickford (and Keane) are off to Everton, annoyingly my two first choice signings for this window. I'd definitely be happy with Siggurdson and Maguire though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adkins' Bus Posted 13 April, 2017 Share Posted 13 April, 2017 Lots of people suggesting Pickford. I am still not totally convinced by him. He makes some good looking saves but does tend to parry quite a few back in to the danger area. And many a keeper has looked good when playing for the worst team in the league - lots of shots against them. Sigurdsson would obviously be great, but out of our reach I'd have thought. I like the look of Maguire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the saint in winchester Posted 13 April, 2017 Share Posted 13 April, 2017 Sunderland - Pickford. Last time we took the goalkeeper off a relegated Sunderland team, it looks madness....but he turned out to be quality. Happily do that again. Middlesborough - Traore. Swansea - a lot of them eg Cork, Siggo, Ki, Mawson, Llorente, Montero. On paper, they are too good to go down but I can't see them turning it around now.

I like the look of Maguire. Its the same every year with relegated clubs - keeper looks good as they have loads of shots to save. Remember when we just had to sign David Marshall as he was top class when Cardiff were relaged - think he conceded like 70+ league gaols but he did make some impressive one off saves. was Júlio César a few years ago too when QPR went down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But otherwise yes I agree, i'm always suspect when a keeper down the bottom end is being lauded. Heaton and Pickford are this season's choices. Have wanted us to sign Sigurdsson for years now, I wouldn't be so sure that he'd want to go to a 'big' club having already been burned once.

SKD Posted 13 April, 2017 Share Posted 13 April, 2017 Seriously? No way I'd have him back, he's not good enough. Exactly. Wasn't good enough then, isn't good enough now. I'd have sigurdsson, traore, Pickford (as back up which I doubt he'd come for) and Defo. Lorente a good player, but wouldn't suit our style IMO. Would swap him for Austin given the chance however.

whelk Posted 14 April, 2017 Share Posted 14 April, 2017 Yeah don't get the fuss about Traore. Spoke to Boro fans before our game and mentioned I thought he their star. They laughed and said all he is is lightning fast and cannot use ball. Think he had an impressive TV game so many think he is a star but often not even in the team heading for relegation. Sigurdsson would be brilliant but too highly rated now for us to have a look in,. Same for McGuire maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest of them don't really think are good enough or could find better for cheaper elsewhere. I really don't think we will get any of these players, the likes of Spurs and Liverpool will offer them far more money than we will. Also I really don't get the desperation to offload FF and replace him with Pickford. It's easy (relatively) to look good pulling off the Hollywood saves behind a sh*t defence, like theirs. Much harder to command your area and orchestrate an organised defence. Just look at Kelvin. I'm not saying Pickford has the same flaws but Sunderland haven't exactly been air tight at the back.
