Hornso Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Welcome Lewis. Got some depth for Hogan & Davis now. Does this now allow McCormack to go to the MLS/whoever in the world wants him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post VILLAMARV Posted January 31, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) What a difference a few weeks make and last night's result wouldn't have done us any harm. When the window opened we were behind Cardiff and Bristol City as well as Derby. If he's chasing another promotion on his CV then we look a good bet right now. In a way we could have just made Cardiff spend £6m on Gary Madine. Edited February 1, 2018 by VILLAMARV wordwang 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick76 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I love this signing, not because I know much about this guy but hopefully it has a couple of effects on the team 1) We all knew we needed another striker and so did our rivals, we are on a roll now in the league and now having that extra striker confidence should be higher 2) If he actually comes in and fits in and scores goals that should be enough to get us 2nd spot because our defence is solid, our midfield while not perfect looks good enough for what we need and now we have more goals 3) Other teams around us might be slightly deflated because they knew how strong we were, we are on a roll and now we've added the one thing we needed.....a goal scoring striker. Sometimes seeing your opposition get stronger weakens yourself 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said it in the match thread too TRO On 11/22/2017 at 12:36, TRO said: Just as an observation......I thought Lewis Grabban aquitted himself well playing on the shoulder of our back four. I thought he had a goal in him all game. not to be critical, but in contrast our 2 played much deeper and in my view made it harder for themselves. if its a striker, we are looking for now, in Jan.....i would consider him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Quote @KJT123 Posted November 21, 2017 Grabban looks like trouble, which is surprising, because I thought he was shite. Edited February 1, 2018 by VILLAMARV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Sunderland can stay up if they get someone to feed Grabban chances. Problem is Sunderland won't buy anyone new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcRigo82 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Nice bit of additional fire power just as the door nears closure. Good move by the club. A quick Grabban go. Edited February 1, 2018 by AvfcRigo82 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Not his biggest fan to be honest. I think he behaved a bit poorly at Sunderland and if Coleman's comments about him are anything to go by he maybe a bit of a poor influence in the dressing room. That and I am not sure his work rate is going to fit into this high tempo team. Still he is here and will hopefully make my concerns look ridiculous, so welcome.

Would you want to stay at Sunderland with players that don't give a shit? I don't blame him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
