David Healy joins Sunderland

[Denn Forever]

Just heard that David Healy has joined Sunderland.  Roy Keane hasn't been too hot on signing strikers.  Will Healy do the business for Sunderland?

Frig yer man who wrote that article on OWC about Ireland's 2002 World Cup isn't going to be too happy. What was it he called Keane?

Probably Healy's last chance in Premier League. Is Kenwyne Jones injured? His purchase probably got Keane's transfer record out of jail last year.  This may well push Stokes down the pecking order as well.

In fairness Healy is probably an upgrade on Stokes, who is absolutely pish.

Roy Keane must have a loan out of the credit union with the dummies he buys - expect Sunderland to go down this year.

He stayed up last season with mostly championship players and this season he has bought mostly all players that play in the premiership, personally I believe they'll finish in the top 15.

Cisse and Jones when they play together will be some handful.

Why is he derided so much here?  I reckon it will be his last stop in Britain.  He would be more suited to a slower game on the continent.

I bet OWC are confused now that Healy is managed by Keane in a team owned by ex hurler Niall Quinn. A lot of them started supported Fulham, but could they stomach supporting Keano?

Healy has an incredible international goals record but his stats at club level are poor. He got ten for Leeds in 06/07 but at least half of those were penalties. Last season, he managed four for Fulham. He never really convinced the Leeds fans and Roy Hodgson dropped him as soon as he took over Fulham. He is a natural finisher when he gets a bit of space for NI, but the evidence is that he lacks the pace and strength for club football. It is very difficult to see him starting if Keane has everyone available.

Dunphy had a right go at Woy in the Star on Monday and these two signings have me agreeing with Dunph for a change.

If Healy cant cut it at Fulham, id be surprised if he will do the business for Sunderland, who are at a similar level of averageness as Fulham.
Any word on how much he forked out on the pair of em?

I think Cisse's a good signing for Sunderland. Low risk really being a loan and a cut above what they already have. Healy on the other hand just can't do it in the premier league!!

Aye, it's all terribly confusing right enough.

Did they?
