    Fair play, deserved, though, tbh, our midfield line-up looked like a protest at the board by Potter.

    Wow didn't know this!

    That performance was class and was a statement if we aren't here to be whipping boys!

    ****ing class! Early days but the performance was very very good to watch we didn't nick a win there.

    What a game, what a crowd, what a table! Sunderland have somehow become a team of entertainers and it was the Reidy 7th place era when we were last so competitive!

    I will - I am curious as to how they will find a way to still criticise or warn of dark days ahead .

    Yep i can't mind exactly when it was but it was a while

    Our CM 3 is just ridiculous for a newly promoted side - they have a bit of everything

    So hard to pick a motm but I'd of gone Diarra, thought he was class but then Sadiki and Ballard def ran him close. Xhaka just strolled it and Hume impressed me throughout.

    I think I'm in love with Alderete already

    Alderete supposed to not be up to speed? **** me he might aswell.have brought a deck chair!

    Everything you said is spot on just add Roefs looks excellent and Reinildo was very good aswell!

    Overall that was a ridiculous performance for a newly promoted side!

    BBC Radio 5 said highlights available for each prem game from 8pm on iPlayer. However can’t wait to see how Shearer reacts.

    these players new and old were absolutely brilliant but theres no better sight than seeing a player of zhaka's statue and history wearing a sunderland strip, a grin on his his face as big as the width of the wear itself and pumping his arms up into the stands. take a bow the players, staff and everyone whos connected to this beautiful team

    That was superb. Everyone was excellent, fans were class, RLB set us up perfectly and the subs were exactly what we needed at the time.

    Need to get looking for my passport:emoticon-0140-rofl:
