I think we could do a lot worse than this guy. Before I get bombard with 'overpaying for English talent' and 'not worth it', I really rate this guy, and Sky Sports reckons Sunderland have held talks with Manchester City over an initial £10million deal for him.

We need to jump in on this - he could be the answer to our RW issues, he can score, pass and has some wicked pace.
Thoughts?
