Fabio Borini: Celebrates scoring against Newcastle during his first spell

Fabio Borini: Celebrates scoring against Newcastle during his first spell

Fabio Borini admitted he was "emotional" upon sealing his return to Sunderland from Liverpool in a deal thought to be worth around £7million.

The Italian international, who enjoyed a fruitful loan spell at the Stadium of Light during the 2013/14 season, has signed a four-year deal with Dick Advocaat's side.

Borini became a fan favourite during his initial temporary stay on Wearside, and will link up with fellow new signings Sebastian Coates, Jeremain Lens, Younes Kaboul and Ola Toivonen, with the fee for Borini understood to rise to around £10million with clauses.

Talking to the Black Cats' website on his return, the 24-year-old said: "I am delighted to be back at Sunderland. It is a club I know really well from my time here previously.

"It will be emotional for me to play at the Stadium of Light again and I can't wait to get back on the pitch as a Sunderland player."

Head coach Advocaat added: "Fabio is a great addition to the squad who will make our front line stronger. He can play in a number of attacking positions which is a huge benefit to the team."

The club's sporting director, Lee Congerton, also praised the deal, saying: "Fabio is a player who I've known since he was 15 years old and I was fortunate enough to help recruit him to Chelsea.

"He has developed into a Barclays Premier League striker which we have already seen from his previous loan spell at the club, and we are delighted to have him here on a permanent basis."

Fabio Borini: In line to return to Sunderland

Fabio Borini: In line to return to Sunderland

Sunderland have agreed a fee of around £7million for Liverpool striker Fabio Borini, with the Italian set to sign a four-year deal, according to reports.

It is understood that the 24-year-old Italian was due to head for Wearside to undergo a medical ahead of a move before Tuesday's transfer deadline.

A successful completion would end the lengthy pursuit of a man who played a key role in the Black Cats' run to the 2014 Capital One Cup final, in which he scored the opening goal, and their remarkable escape from Premier League relegation at the end of the same season.

Former head coach Gus Poyet made Borini his number one target last summer, but was unable to persuade him to swap Merseyside for the north-east as he sought to establish himself at Anfield.

However, he has been unable to force his way into Brendan Rodgers' plans - he made just 18 appearances last season and is yet to figure this - and has been linked with a series of clubs this summer, several of them in his native Italy.

Speculation has mounted in recent days that Watford could tempt Borini to Vicarage Road, but Sunderland, who collected their second league point of a testing start to the new season in a 2-2 draw at Aston Villa on Saturday, hope to beat them to the punch with a lucrative deal which is understood to be worth around £60,000-a-week to him.

Borini's capture would further appease Poyet's successor Dick Advocaat, who has spent recent weeks urging owner Ellis Short and sporting director Lee Congerton to deliver the five or six "quality" summer signings he believes are vital if the club is to avoid yet another scrap for top-flight survival.

Significantly, new boys Yann M'Vila and Jeremain Lens both scored at Villa Park, where there was a seat on the bench for Sweden international Ola Toivonen, Advocaat's latest recruit.

Chelsea: Joint bottom of the Power Rankings after home defeat

Chelsea: Joint bottom of the Power Rankings after home defeat

West Ham and Crystal Palace are the week's Power Rankings winners after beating Liverpool and Chelsea, who are joint bottom overall with Spurs.

In Power Rankings, we award points from 0.5 up to 10 decided by an algorithm based on bookmaker odds and winning margins.

It helps, particularly in the early stages of the season, before every team has played all the others, to highlight the real value of the points won and lost.

Manchester United, for example, have got seven points in the actual Premier League table, but they were odds-on favourites to beat Tottenham and Aston Villa yet won by only a goal - and were odds-on against Newcastle, when they were held. It earned them a point in reality, but the Power Rankings highlight the fact that Louis van Gaal's side will actually rue two dropped points.

At the other end of the scale, despite West Ham being top, the Power Rankings can be used to highlight their dropped points - they have claimed two wins that few other teams will manage yet are only in mid-table after slipping up in games they were expected to win. For them, it's a case of 'if only'.

Week 4

Crystal Palace - 10: Near 10/1 shots to win at Stamford Bridge, Palace did exactly that as the Premier League champions suffered another early-season blow.

West Ham - 10: They weren't quite so unfancied going into their game at Liverpool, but a three-goal winning margin also sees West Ham also claim maximum points. After winning at Arsenal on the opening day, they have claimed two of the three 10-point hauls awarded so far.

Southampton - 4: They were odds-on favourites to beat Norwich, but Steven Whittaker's sending-off aided Saints as they racked up bonus points in a 3-0 win.

Swansea - 4: It may appear harsh, but Swansea also only claim four points having edged their way past Manchester United at just short of 3/1 with the bookies.

West Brom - 4: Claiming four points earlier in the weekend were West Brom after two red cards helped Tony Pulis' side to what was deemed an unlikely win at Stoke.

Manchester City - 3: A comfortable home win over Watford earned City another three points, but the exploits of West Ham and Palace sees Manuel Pellegrini's side surrender top spot - for now, at least.

Arsenal - 2: Odds-on favourites to win at Newcastle, Arsenal failed to claim any bonus points having scraped only a 1-0 win in the North East.

Everton - 2: Roberto Martinez's Everton, however, gain a point courtesy of a draw against the odds at well-fancied Tottenham.

Sunderland - 2: Another team gaining a point were Sunderland, who were 19/5 outsiders going into their game at Aston Villa.

Bournemouth - 1: A draw against Leicester at Dean Court earns Bournemouth a point, exactly as it did in reality.

Leicester - 1: The visitors also claim a point to stay just ahead of their actual tally for the season.

Tottenham - 1: Everton gained an extra point for the draw at White Hart Lane, but Spurs were favourites and so have to make do with one.

Aston Villa - 0.5: Villa, meanwhile, claim only half a point having been strong favourites to see off Sunderland at Villa Park.

Fabio Borini: Unable to find a buyer

Fabio Borini: Unable to find a buyer

Lazio have ruled out signing Liverpool striker Fabio Borini, with the Reds struggling to offload the forward before transfer deadline day.

Borini, the first signing made under Brendan Rodgers tenure in the summer of 2012, has failed to make an impact at Liverpool over his three years, with a loan spell at Sunderland his biggest success during the period.

The Italian international finds himself behind Christian Benteke, Daniel Sturridge, Danny Ings and Divock Origi in the pecking order at Anfield, and a handful of clubs have been linked to the striker.

Bologna, Inter Milan and Lazio are all targeting the striker according to reports, but the latter appear to have ruled themselves out of the running with transfer deadline day looming.

When asked about the potential of signing Borini and a list of other players, Lazio chief Igli Tare responded: "None of those players will come to Lazio, we will be sending players out.

"In terms of incomings, we'll see if there are some players leaving and then there might be something happening on incomings", he added.

Dejan Lovren: Struggled to contain the West Ham attack

Dejan Lovren: Struggled to contain the West Ham attack

Dejan Lovren has vowed to recover from his nightmare in Liverpool's 3-0 loss to West Ham - and has "already forgotten" about his mistakes.

The Croatia international's errors, twice being dispossessed in the lead-up to West Ham's crucial second goal, were immediately leapt upon by his critics.

Lovren's first season at Anfield after his £20m move from Southampton in July 2014 was far from the success it was expected to be, and he lost his spot last November after a string of shaky performances.

He recovered his place after injury to Mamadou Sakho later in the campaign, and this summer was re-installed as the preferred partner for Martin Skrtel.

Three straight clean sheets suggested manager Brendan Rodgers had made the right choice, but whether he's selected for their next match at Manchester United after the international break is another question.

"The game is finished and I have forgotten about it already. What can I do?" Lovren said.

"The first minute after the second goal I wanted to go under the table, but in these moments you need to keep your head up. I tried everything but it was a bad decision. Mistakes happen.

"Things like that happen but I don't think it will shake myself and the team. I am the first one disappointed with myself but now we have to go away with the national teams and in two weeks we have Manchester United.

"We need to now keep our heads up in the tough moments but you see other clubs losing at home and we wish we could have taken 10 points from the four games but we didn't.

"We need to forget this and I know we will be better. We need to do it because of us and the fans. We didn't deserve this."
