Another tidbit from my Sunderland ST holder colleague:

Quoted Text
Seemed an excellent prospect and was comfortably L1 standard (first choice lb for us and then Portsmouth), but was very injury prone!

I really liked him to be honest, started 3rd choice in our first league 1 season (behind Oviedo) and he became first choice by the end of the season. Very attacking and pacey, but then injury's hit and he ran down his contract to sign for Portsmouth on a free (we offered him a new one though)

I know injuries have been an issue since, so it's how much they have affected him now I guess


Ultimately, like one of those episodes of “A place in the Sun” where some couple named Brenda and Keith want to buy a four bedroom beachfront villa with a private pool in Cap Ferrat for £95k, there were always going to have to be concessions made, and injury proneness seems to be the theme we’ve got for.

Given where we are, there’s risk with every option open to us. Personally, I’m a lot more comfortable with this than going down the route of fresh but unproven youngsters. A couple more signings in a similar vein to Hume and Thompson and I’ll feel a lot better about things than I did 24 hours ago.

Quoted from Maringer
I can't see Glennon playing in midfield. The chronic lack of pace would be just as much of a liability there as it sometimes is in defence.

Assuming Hume replaces Glennon, does this mean that he is going to be taking all the set pieces now?


At least he moves about whereas Andrew just stands hiding behind a player from the opposition so he doesn’t have to take a pass from our defence!

Hopefully we have someone coming in to improve matters all round.

He is certainly better going forward than defending. But the main issue with him is his horrific injury record which blighted his time at The SOL and prevented him from ever getting a chance to show his merits and defects at Fratton Park.
If he can stay fit for the next three months and Mr Artell gets the best out of him he could be a very good addition.

Probably for the best we’ve only got him on a six month contract ^^

The contract thing - I assume we're just taking over the rest of his contract and doing it like this means we're not using a loan space?

If he's anything on Embleton or the other lad you sent us (the name escapes me  , left footed midfield player?) I will be happy .
