Only stat that matters is goals.

That's what we were told about Stoke and Middlesbrough.

Itll be interesting to see how things pan out when we have Alese and Cirkin back.

Like Alese Hjelde is meant to be a LCB but both play an unbelievable role as a LB

Three at the back, two wing backs and thirty million in the bank for Clarke is where we're headed.

You're just guessing

 

[Young Ted]

And that's what the vast majority were doing - questioning the tactics.

Not really m8 they were slagging the bloke before a ball was kicked and then the personal stuffed kicked typical half wits

 

[Young Ted]

I make that 3 games in a row where changes from the gaffer have heavily impacted a positive result.

If we take Hull out, when we were awful, the we are certainly doing alright.

Still the same **** being spouted on Facey groups, I couldn’t resist a gander.

Some bloke posting mid game saying ‘if we lose this I won’t go back until Beale has gone’

Clearly not there already. We can all see a change in the tide with the bloke l, and we can all see a change in the fellas public persona and confidence.

Genuinely delighted with what I’m seeing. Even the Boro game, to effectively no show and his changes essentially steal us a great point, that’s what he’s there for.

Bloke behind me said at half time a decent manager would sort this but Beale won’t well at 3-1 when I turned and looked at him the response was silence

Just seen Beale’s post-match and it is top class. I’ve been one of his toughest critics, admittedly. However, watched his press conference the other day and he came across much better. Today, in his post-match interview, he was absolutely brilliant. We all want the same thing, and that’s a winning Sunderland side. I hope he can do that for us.

Seems to be very focused on constant improvement and taking nothing for granted. He clearly knows how to motivate players because he obviously gave them a rocket up the arse at halftime and they responded.

He seems like someone who's going to win things to me. Can't really pinpoint why but that's what I think.

 

[Nig]

Amazing how quiet some posters go when we are winning compared to losing

I've been quiet.
I remember someone saying to me years ago. You never know what people are going through.
I think about that sometimes when people are being dicks.
Of course, some are just dicks anyway

 

[Disco down under]

Now that the absolutely unwarranted and incredibly toxic criticism of our young manager seems to be dying down a little, I am excited to see what he can get out of what looks to be a very exciting young squad.

Hoping this could be the start of a beautiful friendship.

Did Jobe shush the crowd yesterday after he scored?

Did Jobe shush the crowd yesterday after he scored?

He thougt about it but not many noticed as they were fuming at Beale for not having 4 at that time.

Oh, and it was O'niens fault

 

[Chunksafc]

Just watched the goals back and Jobe and Clarkes get better the more I see them.

As I have said before if this all clicks for a full 90 minutes someone is going to get an absolute battering

 

[The Legendary Tongue]

Pretty good first half but Rusyn made some great runs and we didn’t pick him out which is disappointing. I’m sure MB will point this out to them. Excellent second half and good substitutions, picked up the pace a bit more and 3 great goals.

Seen that Rigg got a good 25 mins. How did he do ?

Barely touched the ball to be honest.

Surprised we left Clarke on for 90 mins mind I mentioned this when we signed Mundle.. he never gets subbed so is Mundle going to be getting used on the right unless Clarkes not available?

 

[Whittylad]

Cracking win. Poor 1st half but a cracker of a 2nd half. 3 good goals cracking substitutions at the right time to keep momentum and some cracking performances. Clarke is awesome but Dan Neil when he plays like that is a rolls Royce of a player. Heldje looks solid onien impressive again. Lots of positives to take take to Huddersfield on Wednesday night and Birmingham saturday. We'll done to all including the coach.
