We are apparently 'desperate' to sign Seb Larsson

[Jim Van Winkle]

Too old, too slow and too much in wages.

Better value to be had elsewhere.

Not sure why we are 'desperate' to sign this player.

Are you Glenn Hoddle in disguise?

I don't think Larson is good enough but I'd happily have anyone of Le Tissier's qualities.

Sometimes right, sometimes wrong but ALWAYS certain

I didn't say Le Tissier was crap I said he was slow late in his career when I watched him live. He was indeed a great player who for 95%+ of his career I'd have loved to have on my team then or now. What I did say is that Seb is the only player I remember seeing who was slower and less mobile. I would also say that the game is a bit different these days than in the early 90's (but yes would still take Le Tissier). We are talking though about in 2017 taking the CRAP AND SLOW Seb Larsson. The 2 factors together mean I'd not rush to take him given what we have already and what we should be able to realistically attract. He might suit some teams but my opinion is I don't think he fits us.

Far too early in the transfer window to be 'desperate' to sign any player, particularly a free agent.

I know a couple of Sunderland fans, season ticket holders, who think Larsson is total shite.

Barely moves but can shout loudly and point a lot.

Sounds like my game !
