I think he wouldn't have taken the job knowing that Sunderland's owner would bail before the season midpoint.
January Transfer Window 2017 - General Transfers
- Thread starter THFCSPURS19
- Start date
They'd still be an improvement on what they've got
I'd be a fucking improvement and couldn't last five minutes... But those five mins would be wonderful stuff from me.

If Les Reed's quotes are true and Fonte was offered, and turned down, improved new contract offers, you have to question the logic of him wanting to go and play for the wankers at the running track.
They must be offering him a wheelbarrow of money.

Wasn't it more to do with length of contract, think they were only offering a year extension or something like that?

Bournemouth are after begovic. Although a cone in goal would be better than boruc. Some of his performances are a bit suspect.

Apparently Payet is willing to take a pay cut to get away..
But generally you are right of course, and there's nothing wrong with that either.

Thought he would've fitted in quiet well with our squad being young, and he would have the next half of the season to show his worth (Adama Traore is a good example of underrated talent having a decent run in the EPL). But I guess if he is anything special in the EPL then we will buy him at a later stage for 3 times the price.

We need to look at his old club - they churn out a decent number of players. Next in line is Yann Karamoh - Ousmane Dembele-lite. Get Steed in his ear.

Van Aanholt gone
"Sunderland have given Patrick van Aanholt permission to speak to Crystal Palace, after the defender advised officials that he no longer wanted to play for the club and submitted a transfer request.
"Chief executive, Martin Bain said: If a player openly states he does not want to play for our club, then it is clear that we have a decision to make. In this instance and in regard to this particular player, we have done what we feel is right for Sunderland, which will always be our priority.
"The club has accepted a bid for the defender, who has been given permission to travel to London for talks."

Good player, I wouldn't say cracking. The sort of signing we would have made 5-10 years ago.
Not gonna replace Payet.
