Flint to Sunderland

[tforturton]

There seem to be a couple of rumours floating around, linking Aden Flint to Sunderland. What's the verdict?
Do we hold on to for now, and see him leave on a free in the summer?
Sell him for a small fee, and free up some cash and wages for team strengthening?
Give him a new deal, and build the defence around him?

Does anyone know how Sean Morrison is? Is he likely to be fit any time soon?
If Flint went, could we go to a back four, bearing in mind the players who are available?

I would keep until the summer, unless they have a good replacement they want to bring in.

The only thing Tan is interested in is hard cash.
What they paying!

Re: Flint to Sunderland

Even without a fee I would let him go, get the wages off the bill and bring in someone else who can play the ball out from the back. We certainly don’t need him and Morrison.

And Morrison is not in great form at the moment.

Flint has a goal or two in him so i'd keep him till the end of the season unless we are getting a decent fee

No he isn’t but I still think he is the better player. As long as only one of them left then I wouldn’t be to concerned intact if we would replace with a player who would fit into how we play on the left of the back 3 I think it would really help us.

Re: Flint to Sunderland

He would have been managed by Lee Johnson at Bristol City, so would make sense

Re: Flint to Sunderland

I'd be happy for him to leave. Let's go back to a defensive partnership of Morrison and Nelson, as it has worked well in the past.

Re: Flint to Sunderland

His wages would easily cover a loanee with plenty to spare. Cash in now.

Re: Flint to Sunderland

Get Rid he was shit against Blackburn just lobbing it up field most of the time.

Re: Flint to Sunderland

He’s one of the few to come out of this season with any credit. Unless we are bringing in a replacement, I’m not sure on the logic here, especially as he’s a goal threat. And yes, we are that rubbish we need to consider that.

Re: Flint to Sunderland

He's off for a free in the summer, if we can con someone into paying for him then that's great business

He's not scored for us since August!
