even though we came fith today im not as said as i thought i would be it has been a great season and if we can keep most of our key players and maybe bring in a cb and a few rotation players i don't see why we can't do this well or even push for the title we have certaily got the willingness and class

I am not worried about losing players.

We have all our key players (with the exception of Ba) on long term deals, 4+ years.

Mike Ashley rejected bids of 27 and 30 million for carroll before accepting 35 so if we do lose anyone the club buying will have to pay top money.

It is natural that all teams, except those at the very top will lose players....it's how the game works now.

The good thing is we don't lose them on the cheap. If the player wants to go and join a bigger side on double wages you can't complain, most people would do the same if they didn't have any affiliation to the club.

Lets just hope we sign well and replace any that leave with better.

Good point, Ashley is a business man and knows the value of players. IF say Tiote was to leave I would expect in the region on 25 - 30 mil. That is to buy the player and becasue he is on a long contract.

25 30m for a thug ha ha

Agree0 Disagree0

25 - 30 million is the value of the Sunderland team. Must break all SMB's how well we are doing.

So it's just what Johnny Hall called the European Losers League for you I see ? Still.....

Slightly better than the Durham and district challenge cup for the mackems

Agree5 Disagree1

I don't get why people insult the Europa league.

It is only english teams that insult it and see it as a distraction.

Look at spain, italy, france....they all value the competition and it is worth playing in.

It gives great experience to the team, gets your known throughout europe and makes it easier to attract players to the club.

Players will want to join a europa league side more than a bottom half prem league side.

Blue Moon Rising - City City City !

Europa is crap.

Look at the teams who have been on the final in recent years.

Middlesbrough,Fulham,Celtic etc
Celtic massive club but poor league,boro very small club as are fulham.

If I'm honest, I would have settled for tenth as long as we beat Sunderland, so to get into the Europa League by finishing fifth is just amazing!! Massive plaudits have to go to Pards, the scouting team, Mike Ashley and the squad.
As long as we don't lose any of our key, key players, I think we could do well in Europe next year!! What do you think Ed?

Actually think tiote and possible ba will go...and simpson due to his new agents advice and release guthrie....rodallega and diame are free they would not be bad signings at all....

Agree2 Disagree3

I think it is obvious where our main transfer targets have to be. Top Class defenders. Top Class ctr half and a Top Class right full back. When we get beat we get stuffed and 90% of the time is because of poor defending.

COME ON BOYS, SHOW SOME DESIRE! I predict 4-3 Newcastle, call me optimistic... Terrible first half, need to get Gutierez, Ba, Cisse and Ben Arfa into the game, what do you think ED?
