I know eff all about him, but we did need cover there, seems a smart no risk move.

Davis has faded away. RHM is an injury waiting to happen so can’t be trusted. Gabby is the same and simply put past it. RM appears to be a lost cause and at best unreliable.

Grabban does things none of our currently healthy strikers do. Having him as an option off the bench and ultimately competing with Hogan for the starting spot makes us a lot deeper and stronger.

I would guess we will have agreed to buy him at the end, they were keen to sell

Aside from the obvious positives of the goals, count the number of kits he wears. As talented as he is you have to wonder why he’s bounced around so much?

We need extra cover up front so makes sense.

It makes a hell of a lot of sense. Smart move if it happens.

Not sure about that as I don't think he is premier league quality.

Thinking positively.

Seems a bit odd.  He's been mostly shit for his career, but then has done well at Sunderland, so much so that he gets recalled to his home club, only for them to then loan him out again a few weeks later?

By all accounts he wasn’t keen on staying at Sunderland and he returned by mutual consent.

Decent signing,we look a bit short upfront if hogan gets another injury. Hopefully he can bag 8-10 goals between now and the end of the season.

Needed a back up forward. Can't say much more than that.
