Stephane Sessegnon (31) has nearly always impressed when played for WBA - now Tony Pulis has let him go. Although age is not on his side, still a very mobile, hardworking midfielder with an eye for a goal. Would not mind seeing him with the Eagles!

No thank you. If he's not considered good enough for WBA then why would we need him.

The heart of our team includes players who weren't deemed to be good enough for teams that everyone considered to be beneath us including Bolasie at Bristol City and Delaney at Ipswich

Generally I wouldn't take Pulis releasing an attacking player as a mark of that player's value. If he had the chance he'd play eight centre backs hoofing it up to two Peter Crouch's up front.

That being said apparently Sessegnon is on quite hefty wages and is on the verge of turning 32. Would probably rather we chased Andros Townsend or someone like that.

 


We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

Not a terrible shout on a free with maybe a 2 year deal. Again though I'm not too sure he improves us that much, he's at about the same level as Puncheon I'd say, we need to sign players that are actually going to make us better now rather than carrying on with signing squad players.

I do also think we have a bit of an ageing squad so I would imagine we'll be looking at younger targets predominantly.

No,not for us.
Don't need this sort of player.

We are looking at 'Central defence' but as ever we are up against competition from other clubs !

He's one of their best players. Gladly take him, huge improvement on Lee and Mutch. We already have Punch, Wilf and Bolasie in those positions so we don't need a superstar, just extra competition, Sessengon fits that bill.

Apparently his attitude stinks

Tidy player though, isn't he getting on a bit?

He is 32 next month.

It was Steve Bruce who signed him for Sunderland from PSG for £6 Mill, then Steve Clarke signed him for WBA.
Bruce thinks his best position is off the front man and the player has been criticised in the past for his lack of composure in front of goal.

I've not heard of any interest in him from our club.

If he plays like he has this season (whenever I've seen him) SS is an improvement!
