Normally teams that come up from the Championship - especially those who scraped through via the play-offs - try to strengthen their team for their season in the PL. Sunderland appear to be selling the family jewels!

Yes, maybe they should. Sanchez got branded as 'Brighton's third choice GK' because he dared to fall out with RDZ when RDZ was a god on NSC, and with Brighton fans as well, probably. Thicko Chelsea fans took up the mantra, 'Brighton's third choice GK' and grizzled abut being fobbed off with another Brighton reject.
Ever since, they have only notices his errors, while being blinded to see the number of points he actually saves (or wins) them with his worldies. Sad, because he's a confidence GK, and ever since RDZ dissed him, he's had his confidence consistently undermined by the ignorant who fell for the 'third choice' label.
Fact is, he's a very aggressive GK, who likes to dominate the penalty area (similar to Beadle). Sometimes he'll come for something he just can't get to, sometimes leading to a goal. It's easy for some to concentrate on those occasions whilst ignoring the occasions when, rather than actually stopping a shot, he prevents one even being taken in the first place.
Beadle could become England's no.1, but if that sort of short-sighted attitude ("he only makes mistakes") catches on - well, that would be a shame.
