I Don't believe Shanks works in an office, he is more of the labourer type....
12 years in IT fella ;-)
But most people think I'm a labourer until they see my fairy liquid hands.

anyone that wants to argue Crouch's case v Llorente should be sectioned, Llorente is a Top notch and would score for fun in our team, as much as I respect Crouch for what he's done for us and the effort he's put in I must be honest and say that im excited by the prospect of him joining Sunderland if it leads to us getting the ball down and passing out of defense more with him not on the field

I would absolutely love us to sign Llorente, brilliant player.
Is it coincidence we just happen to have a friendly against Bilbao or could it be possible that a deal was agreed in principle and this was the date decided to finalise everything?
could Llorente be the blue POTL is referring to? his eyes are extremely blue !
Is Samba the replacement for Crouch
He got the same amount of league goals last year, he might as well be! :grin:
Lots of ITKs...As i said, i'll stick to my sigs
How many times does it have to be repeated for some people to wake up to the reality: We Will Not Sign Fernando Llorente!
We did not pay Roma their quote for Vucinic, yet we are ready to shell out 2-3 times as much on Llorente, who isn't even for sale? Please, stop deluding yourselves.
Again, Bilbao has no use for Daniel Levy's money because they cannot directly reinvest it in their first team. Their new president will not sell one of the greatest players in their club's history for whatever (likely) low-ball offer we present. Furthermore, if they did make him available, numerous other teams of greater stature than us would offer the same transfer fee and offer him triple the wages.
It's a pipe dream, even more so than signing Kun Aguero.
We had two legitimate chances to sign quality strikers are semi-reasonable fees given the market rate: Luis Suarez in January and Mirko Vucinic in June. We lost out on both. Now, we will simply have to deal with going through the league with what we have. The only question remaining is, what incentive do Bale, Modric, and Van der Vaart have to stay in 2012-2013 when we likely don't offer Champions League Football, nor the wages that their future suitors will present.
You might be wright or wrong, but no need to come across as a know all.

Now, we will simply have to deal with going through the league with what we have, or a marginal upgrade like Odemwingie. The only question remaining is, what incentive do Bale, Modric, and Van der Vaart have to stay in 2012-2013 when we likely don't offer Champions League Football, nor the wages that their future suitors will present. Will Levy block moves for all of them, like he did for Modric this summer?
