Sunderland v FC Chiasso today

It's the last day at the Italian boot camp today and we have a friendly arranged with a second division Swiss side FC Chiasso. I must admit I've never heard of them before last week so something of an unknown to most of us. Rumours are that the are better than the select XI that we beat 13-1 last week. Most of the squad had a run out last time and even Danny Graham scored.
Possible starting 11:
Mannone, Roberge, O'Shea, Brown, Gardner, Johnson, Cabral, Ba, Larsson, Sessegnon, Altidore.

So how do you think we will line up and what are your predictions for final score?

 

Think it will be quite similar to how we set up against the select XI

Manonne
Gardner O'Shea Brown Colback
Johnson Cabral N'Diaye DMK
Sessegnon
Altidore

This isnt my ideal 11, just how I think they'll start.

 

If Westwood isn't starting I'm going to be concerned.

 

Kicks off at 5pm our time.
Like to start with

Westwood
Gardner O'Shea Roberge Colback
Johnson Cabral N'Daiye Giaccherini
Altidore Sessegnon

and hope Wickham gets a chance this time.

Closer game this one I reckon 6-0. Ha'way the lads

I'm not sure if safc are covering this one but these are:

Would prefer Danny Rose but given current options for LB I think Jack will still give his all for the club even if he doesn't sign a new contract. Anyway is only a practice game

 

Mannone; Gardner,O'Shea, Brown, Roberge; Johnson, Cabral, Ba, Larsson; Sessegnon; Altidore.

FC Chiasso: Capelletti; Quaresima, Adailton, Djuric, Felitti; Adao, R.Riva; Mihajlovic, Berisha, Yerly; Gaston.

Edit : these line ups are not confirmed

 

If it is Mannone, then I can see Westwood rightly handing his notice in.

 

Mannone is a PDC boy. He will probs be number 1.

 

Last RT: The game has not yet begun and Di Canio has already fallen out with six fans of Chiasso.

 

Boooooooooooooo!
