Gus after Ulloa?

Zebedee · Jan 23, 2014

It seems that out esteemed ex-manager may now be setting his sights on signing Ulloa as well:

I really wish Poyet would just fish elsewhere and leave our squad alone. He is beginning to piss me off big-time.

I'm pretty sure he would go if Gus came knocking. Almost without hesitation. Certainly doesn't appear to have fallen in love with our club.

No chance

Zebedee · Jan 23, 2014

The final sentence of the news article made me laugh; viz:

"Question marks remain, however, as to whether Poyet and Brighton would be willing to put their differences aside for the sake of Sunderland’s survival bid"

As if.......... I really don't give a toss about Sunderland or their battle against relegation.

I like the way they call Ulloa a low cost alternative to Steven Fletcher, Dream on.

It crossed my mind that he may already have turned his head given the allegedly lacklustre recent performances.

A Wickham switch might then be possible !

Beginning? He did that for me in May.

No chance Tony will sell our only fit, non-loan striker to him unless for very, very silly money.

I thnk we all know that any of our players would jump at the chance to join them if offered.

So it boils down, obviously, if anyone will offer an irresisable offer.

Even for silly money we shouldn't sell him. The thought of having no fit permanent strikers in the squad fills me with horror.

Would not surprise me if he was interested.

Would surprise me a lot if Tony Bloom sold Ulloa unless it was for a ridiculous bid. By that I mean £7million upwards.

That's another 7 days worth of pointless drivel from Naylor in The Argus then claiming it as an exclusive

I would HAPPILY consider swapping Leo for Connor Wickham.

There, I've said it.

Wickham is much younger, quicker, and more clinical.

If there was a modest cash adjustment, in our favour, to cover Wickham's higher wages, I'm IN.

If you were stuck with Altidore you'd want Ulloa.

If you were stuck with Altidore Barn Door Billy would be better.

£5 million should do it.

Bring back Barnes for a million?

Isn't it more likely that he's just finding his way back after a long term injury?

Which are these? The operative word is allegedly.
I saw him against Charlton, when he scored two goals, and looked extremely committed.
I also saw him against Birmingham and Bournemouth, neither of which were his greatest games. But this happens to all players.
I watched him on a stream against Derby and, although he was isolated and seemed frustrated at the lack of support he was receiving, he seemed pretty committed, and even got booked because he didn't feel he was getting sufficient protection from the referee, which suggests both passion and commitment. An uncommitted player would have shrugged his shoulders.

This has also crossed my mind but I've resisted the thought on the basis that he'll need a few games to get up to speed. If true however he'd be after the job lot of Ulloa, Buckley and Bridcutt which would be absolutely taking the piss.

Explains why he has been horse shit since he came back from injury, and a right miserable sod.
