Still scarred off that ****er

I'm being serious though! Even teams like Palace are capable of totally humping a relegation rival! I know for a fact we wont be doing that today! We might pick something up from todays game, but i'd be flabbergasted if we play well and pick up 3 well deserved points!

My feelings exactly, i hope for something good but fear for the worst, we are sunderland, we rarely do things the easy way

Bastards!

Poyet names his side to face Villa.

Gus Poyet has made three changes to the side that drew with Hull City earlier this month.

Patrick van Aanholt starts ahead of Santiago Vergini, with Steven Fletcher and Ricky Alvarez also being handed a start.

Danny Graham drops to the bench, whilst Alvarez comes in for Lee Cattermole, who is serving the first game of his two match ban, after picking up his 10th yellow card of the season against the Tigers.

Sunderland: Pantilimon, Reveillere, van Aanholt, Brown, O'Shea (c), Bridcutt, Larsson, Rodwell, Alvarez, Defoe, Fletcher.

Subs: Jones, Wickham, Gomez, Graham, Coates, Vergini, Mannone.

Aston Villa: Guzan, Lowton, Okore, Clark, Bacuna, Delph (c), Cleverley, Sinclair, N’Zogbia, Benteke, Agbonlahor.

Subs: Given, Gil, Sanchez, Kinsella, Weimann, Westwood, Hepburn-Murphy.
 
Muahaha. This is beautiful. Agent Poyets team can really play. Massive game this. You cant really lose this or youre right in it from now till the end of the season.
 
Well it is a pathetic showing but I disagree Travelsick. From what I have seen of QPR and Leicester I don't see either of them getting over 30 points this season and Burnley (who have looked decent at times) have got a horrific run in. Sunderland are 4 point above the relegation zone and possibly only need 4-6 more points for the rest of the season. 31-32 points for safety this season is my guess and Sunderland will get that.
