He's being looked at along with Suarez and Dzeko, don't know who else atm. Italian Sky said that Harry was at the Palmero game last night, presumably for Kjaer.

Ladies and Gentlemen. I give you... Browney's guide to Sunderland's transfers!

Here's the acceptable areas of our squad.
Gordon
?* - Turner - ?* - ?
? - Cana - Cattermole - ?**
Bent - Jones
* - Hutton and Mensah, if they sign on a permanent.
** - We've just signed a new winger, but I haven't seen him play yet.
I'm going to do two sets of lists. One realistic, one... not. See if you can guess which.
In: Hutton, Mensah, Figueroa, N'Zogbia/Pederson
Out: Murphy, Healy, McCartney, Nosworthy
In: Rafael, Upson, Gibbs, Bentley, Joe Cole
Out: Half the squad.
Ok, the second set of lists was done tongue in cheek, but not too outlandish. Rafael might want loan time if United nab a RB, Upson is surplus to requirements at Upton Park, Gibbs may want loan time, Bentley could come here for game time and Joe Cole might want to work for charity..? In reality I would be delighted with the first list. However, sounds like we may be being priced out of moves for Mensah and Hutton. I'm not sure what to think. I never thought we needed to get stronger on the RB role anyway, I think our LB is dire. If we get forced out of the running for Hutton, Bruce should throw all of his considerable weight into a deal for Figueroa.
Although, there's talk of other options for the right back role. Guy demel from Hamburg is wanted away by fans, and Onouha wants away from the manager at City. He may also be handy in CB. Birmingham have had an 8 million bid for N'Zogbia knocked back. I reckon we can match or better that. Not to say Brum can't up their offer, they're minted. Plus, N'Zogbia knows the area well. Another creative midfielder option may be Ireland. He's not in the manager's plans, but I'm sure better clubs are in for him. Also, I'd hate to play him on the wing and butcher his style of play. We'd have to play:
Ireland
Riveros - Cattermole
Cana
Which doesn't suit Cattermole at all. And I'd hate to leave Catts out for Richardson or someone...
Basically, we need to tighten up at full-back, then add a creative midfielder. Too often Bent has poor service. Is Cristian Riveros that midfielder? Who knows. All I know is, I can't wait for transfer fever to kick off.

Hutton is toilet, if I were Sunderland I'd cash in on Jones. He's good, but not really been the same player this season. Even you have to admit that he is terribly over-priced.
Harry was probably looking at Miccoli or Lavezzi, from Palermo, they're AMAZING for them.
Well, used to be at Palermo? :S
On my UT he's still classed as Palermo :S
EDIT - sorry I should have read the quote correctly, yeah I messed up with Lavezzi :P
did you mean Cavani?
