Don’t panic just yet – Sunderland’s striker crisis could be solved by genius £2.5m signing
The Black Cats have endured a fairly slow start to the new season, but could be about to make a breakthrough for Ukrainian forward Nazariy Rusyn.
At this present moment in time, Tony Mowbray’s cherubic Sunderland squad is reminisce of a child’s laser tag birthday party; there is plenty of youthful energy, somebody seems to be picking up a minor bump or scrape every five minutes, and the weapons – despite looking the part – are seriously lacking in live ammunition. You would also assume that there is an abundance of sugar-adjacent treats kicking about somewhere, but that’s probably more to do with the manager than his playing staff.
On December 30th last year, a desperate Everton recalled striker Ellis Simms from his loan stint at the Stadium of Light. Twenty-nine days later, Ross Stewart’s Achilles fell off during an FA Cup clash with Fulham. It was a fitting timeframe given that to most Sunderland fans, this felt like a zombie apocalypse, but just a little bit worse.
