    Why do commentators keep saying 'he just about dealt with this' or 'just about kept the ball in' ...

    ... when they actually did deal with it or kept the ball in' <doh>

    It's very obvious what we do as well with Roberts and Clarke cutting in almost exclusively. I'd like to see them swap now and again

    Cirkin looks a bit off the pace to me, they have got in down his side a few times. Hopefully he just needs minutes after his injury last season.

    Watson has twice gone close to pulling one back at Hartlepool.

    Final ball has been atrocious. A few similarities to last season…

    Sunderland playing like England here ...

    ... too many passes sjdewards or back and no one taking risks playing through the lines.

    Get Ba and Aouchiche on for some energy and pace.
