Sunderland have completed the signing of Kyle Lafferty, with the experienced striker joining the Black Cats until the end of the season.

The Northern Ireland international has had a successful career that has taken him across the world, with his most notable contributions coming in Scotland with Hearts and Rangers, although he last featured for Norwegian outfit Sarbsborg.

However, he left the Scandinavian outfit after their season finished at the start of December and has now signed a deal with the Wearside outfit.

Lafferty will hope to play a big role for Phil Parkinson's side as they look to close the gap on the top two, with Sunderland one point away from the play-offs and six from the automatic places ahead of today's game against leaders Wycombe.

It's fair to say the arrival of the target man prompted a mixed response from the fans who wanted the club to be active in the market this month.

Here we look at some of the comments to Lafferty's signing from Twitter...
