Can someone message Sambou to confirm that isn't him?

The fact that Sunderland fans, who are usually sound proper football fans, are gutted about losing him makes me think this is a good signing. Can't say I know much about him much like last week's signing.

Get Mustafi IN

Sunderland fan I work with has been saying that he hasn't seen a worse defender there since Anton Ferdinand.

Spot on, all the words from them are positive, so I'm very pleased with him signing if it comes off. Would rather this guy for £18m than Koulibaly for £40m.

He was a monster aginst us last year.

Looks like Ron has certainly identified the defence has an issue and wants no nonse centre backs.

Good on ye Ron

Goes without saying

I've never seen him play but I'm pretty sure he's the greatest CB of all time.

No thanks. I have a fear of players called "Kone"

I have the same fears about a player called Gueye!

I hope we have employed Walsh to scour the World for an Angell, Spencer, Kroldrup, Baardsen, Thomsen and Keeley.
Imagine if he could find players who turned into absolute world beaters with those surnames. He truly would be a special director of football.

Our conversations in the future would confuse the hell out of our kids over who was great and who was useless from our past.

most of them are saying he was superb like.

their (defensive) form did pick up when they signed him

@Albertini78 could tell you more

How confident are we of this one? The only link I have seen is the Daily Mail and well, it's the Daily Mail.

It sounds like we're going after a few proven premier league players without ludicrous fees which will genuinely improve the squad. Why go for 40m risks who have never played in this league instead? Obviously I'm still hoping for a Mata type signing but three or four solid additions will be more than welcome.

Typical defender that could play for clubs like Sunderland, Boro, Swansea, Watford, Stoke, Palace or Everton... decent but nothing speciel... will never play for a champions League club
