How sad. Sunderland fans are more optimistic about Newcastle than I am!!! I thought we were going to get humped! Rooney did as expected (whacked him in my ff team and made him captain) but I did not expect us to score!!! I wish I had watched the game now ha. Can see you guys getting something today. I'd prefer a draw but would not be surprised if you won (if Defoe starts)
I thought it had bore draw written all over it. Wasn't expecting a goal feast. Won me some pennies so can't grumble. I fancy us tonight. Think we'll want it more.
Might whack a bit on a Defoe any time to score and you to win. Forgot to ask, are you all moved in now?
I've taken Sunderland win and +2.5 goals @ 17/2 In and getting settled, doing a bit of painting. Apart from this bowel infection it's been ok mate. Was a bit precious in the days after the move. Wore me right down mentally and I wasn't in a great place to start with. But ok yeah ta mate.
Mannone, Jones, O’Shea, Brown, van Aanholt, Cattermole, M’Vila, Johnson, Lens, Borini, Defoe. #SWASUN Substitutes: Pickford, Coates, Yedlin, Rodwell, Watmore, Graham, Fletcher.
Fabianski, Naughton, Fernandez, Williams (C), Taylor, Britton, Ki, Sigurdsson, Routledge, Barrow, Ayew.
I'm worried about the work rate or lack of rather, with Lens and Johnson in the same team... I'm also worried about the pace of Swansea going forward, especially that Barrow. I'm really pleased by how positive the team is that Sam's picked, he's going for it. HAWAY!!!!!
Strongest team from who's available. Always reassuring when you discover ones new manager knows his strongest side.
Agreed. Problem is fella there isn't team available from our squad which doesn't produce some kind of glaring weakness. Nature of the beast when you have such a **** squad init. That's a go down fighting team, trying to score our way out of trouble. Only thing I can ask for when we're as ****ed as we are.
Borini is good at tracking back and is fast, so that should help down the left. AJ and Jones down the right.. depends how motivated AJ is, but he can be good at helping out the RB
