Sunderland Transfers: 10 Dream Alternatives To Fabio Borini
9. Aaron Lennon
Sunderland have already been linked with the pacey winger who possess a real threat to any defender this summer, so this may not be a huge surprise. Back then, Giaccherini's future was perhaps in doubt while one or two suitors were eyeing Adam Johnson. In that case, Lennon would have been a perfect replacement for either of those, while as an alternative to Borini, hes an option This move would make sense: unlike club-mate Andros Townsend, Lennon is lightweight and if he could put his pace to good use he could be twice the player hes ever shown to-date. His trouble seems to be something which hampered a young Ryan Giggs, at times. Just like Giggs, Lennon runs at pace, meaning his final ball is not always under control. Though the frustrating thing more than anything can be Lennons decision making, perhaps with the right guidance he could work on that. As one of the quickest players in the league, the sight of him running at people in close proximity scares the hell out of defenders, especially when any little nudge could result in a penalty. But then, in that case, Lennon should try making his darts towards goal, maybe gaining more output.
