Sylvin Distin?
He must be nearly 40..... If we are going for has-been's would prefer Toure.
Yeh I know, I find myself thinking the same - but he is still really fit. Reads the game brilliantly and makes brilliant angles when playing the ball out of defence. Strides forward with the ball confidently when teams sit back against you which leaves you extra body numbers in midfield. That's why he is still playing at that age quite simply because he still has a lot of attributes.
Sure but the Championship is different to the prem, and the limited space behind defences in the prem, means you can disguise a lack of pace, and as you say his reading of the game is good.
The championship involves longer sprints and IMO he'd be found out.

Maybe but the Championship does not have the cutting edge strikers that the Premiership has, so he could cope in that league easily for at least a year and to have someone like him alongside Connor Goldson. Goldson would learn from one of the best

Not for me.....now had you said "Kayal" i would agree.
Could've kept Greer on that basis [emoji6]
Current international.

Yes. Was discussing Stephens possible exit last night, and we all agreed the one player we would not want to lose would be Kayal.

Especially after we got him for what £650,000? not sure what we paid,but was a snip.

Kolo Toure is yerserday's man. He hardly set the world alight whilst he was with Liverpool.
As things stand I think l'd rather have Dunk and Goldson.

Why all this talk about Dale Stephens leaving?, what do other people know that I dont?, l mean, does he actually want to leave?

Is the correct answer, was going to write something similar myself Borini is quality at what he does however Fletch could do a job in the championship if you can afford he Lamborghini wages

Hated by the Sunderland fans for being lazy and having a generally lousy attitude, allegedly. No thanks.

This is a ridiculously simplistic comment. We have two quality centre backs other than Dunk. I'm not advocating selling him because, like you, I think he's quality, but there's no way it's him that's pivotal to promotion. If we can get a ridiculous sum of money for him and invest that in quality up-front, this wouldn't be the worst option in our situation.

Not hated by any means but frustrated at times, just not quite there for the Premier League but would do well in the Championship

Nick Powell has been released by Manchester United...
Maybe worth getting in, spent time on loan at Hull last season.

Really
Dunk is replaceable. Kayal definitely isn't. Stephens probably isn't. As a pair they aren't. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

I'd have a look at Tika Musonda from Chelsea, if I remember right he was on loan at betis last season, and is a bit flair. Jack Barmby might be another interesting shout?
