He looked out the door last season and took his chance on loan and I felt he should have been given this season at least to prove his worth to us as he seems desperate to make it here. I still believe he's a very talented player and his work rate only adds to that. He seemed to be happy to be a squad player as well and I believe his fresh legs would cause problems in the latter stages of games and he would also be an ideal player to start games when fatigue kicks in around December and January. If things had gone different for him he could have went the same way as Henderson. Only for injury and being played out of position. If he goes I wish him all the best and hope he proves most people wrong by leading the line for Sunderland. All the best fabio

I'm happy that we seem to be becoming a club that no longer undervalues its players. 21 million for Borini and Assaidi? That is superb business.
