Sunderland<\/a><\/abbr> boss Steve Bruce is convinced they\u2019ve pulled off a coup in signing former Ipswich Town<\/a><\/abbr> striker Connor Wickham.<\/p>\n

Bruce is clearly excited at the prospect of the England under-21 man \u2013 one of the last of the old-fashioned British-style centre forwards \u2013 lining up in red and white.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s vitally important that we don\u2019t expect too much of him too soon, but we do believe that we\u2019ve got a really exciting talent on our hands who can excel for us for years to come,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat old-fashioned style British centre-forward is exactly what we\u2019ve been looking for all along and there aren\u2019t that many of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve paid a lot of money \u2013 possibly a bit too much \u2013 but we\u2019re very confident in his ability and he\u2019ll only get better.\u201d<\/p>\n
