A bit underwhelmed if it happens to be Keane, but 750k doesn't get you very far with strikers and at least we know he can score at this level. Would have made a bit more sense if we hadn't already signed Cole

Cole could be loaned out in January. But it makes sense as he's a different player to Keane and Dike may not be fit until New Year. And probably didn't cost much. 

We would moan if the squad was too thin.

Sold BTA who was a fan favourite but youd have to question his actual goal output and bringing in two solid championship level pros, plus change. More legs and potentially a few more goals. 3 number 9s rather than one!!

Theo Le Bris...

French RB/CM from Lorient. L'Equipe running a rumour that we're looking at him.

We can't get anymore EU players can we? We've filled up the quota (4). His uncle is Sunderland manager.

We can't sign anymore who don't qualify with enough points. Le Bris apparently will with 20 points (15 required) due to league + mins played

He played over a third of Lorient's minutes last season so he might be eligible for a work permit without needing the quota. Can't be bothered to look up the amount of points you get for Ligue 1 though to verify.

Meets criteria by all accounts.

That sounds good. Splash the Dara cash.

Keane has scored more than our top scorers the past 2 seasons so I think it makes sense and is a good bit of business given he can play 9 or 10

Hope this is right and comes off. We will have an excellent squad then. Role on Saturday when we will know who else we’ve bought in and who has gone out.
