HoldenBall Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 He might be told from the higher ups straight away the players he will be working with. Hopefully Matthews isn't in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citywest30 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Yeah quite conceivable that Allardyce, with his football knowledge was keeping him there as cover till a first choice rb was brought in but now he's gone and there are people with no football knowledge running the club and making the decisions, they may just see him as a way of getting a few million into the club.

Do you have the numbers wanting to change their mind. That was just the press reacting to the first few days of shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthews main concern is with all the jonny-foreigner footballers taking his job. Sunderland are concerned that they may not get into Europe if Matthews leaves. In a bizarre twist, the lead remainer has now resigned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tears in rain Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 This move will depend on who comes in as next manager and if they feel the need for a replacement still. If it is the same situation as before and they want him out then City should surely pursue this transfer further. It's just a waiting game currently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Yep, read he's been left behind. You'd think a new manager would want to look at all the players he's inherited, must be some staff members telling Moyes to get rid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think a new manager would want to look at all the players he's inherited, must be some staff members telling Moyes to get rid? This is the problem with having a new manger appointed in the close season. He hasn't got time to personally assess players, so has to make buy and sell decisions based on limited knowledge of the players. Added to the fact that you might get the sacked mid season due to lack of instant mid season results, why would anyone want to be a Premier League manager?

Silvio Dante Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 This is a strange one, and with Matthews being left behind it pretty much confirms that the whole "need a replacement before selling" line was knackers - they don't have one, and he's still not in plans. Says to me one of two things: - We know he's not in plans and as such are making low offers - AM knows Sunderland want rid, and they're trying to ease him out. However, he has various bonuses he'll lose if he asks for a move so is waiting to be sold rather than ask to go Pure guesswork here, but possible that if AM asked for a move Sunderland would have accepted a lower bid, and right now it seems it's all three parties waiting for someone to blink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
