11-8-10: Sunderland have landed Nedum Onuoha on a season-long loan from Manchester City. "Nedum is a modern-day defender," the Black Cats boss told the club's official website. "He's big, quick and powerful - a really good defender, who, despite his age, has already played over 100 games. He has all the attributes a modern defender needs. "Nedum is someone I've tracked for a long time so it's great to get the deal done to bring him here. He can play anywhere across the back line, too, so it's great to have added that flexibility and some strong competition for places."
