Not in my life time I will add as an addendum. It is time for the ultimate poll... Mitro vs Luque vs Soiled rag
You've not seen a worse Prem striker than Mitro?! We've currently got far worse - Riviere!!! And that's before we get on to Andreas Andersson, Jon Dahl Tomasson, Daniel Cordone, Xisco, Paul Robinson and Luque!!I And I haven't even mentioned the ultimate monstrocity STEPHANE BLOODY GUIVARC'H!!!! And what about some of the dross at other clubs - Ade Akinbiyi, Alfonso Alves, Thomas Brolin, Jason Lee, Gerald Sibon, Steve Marlet, Dong Gook-Lee, Roberto Soldado....etc. Oh and let's not forget ALI DIA, i.e. some guy who was probably a painter and decorator or taxi driver in real life who managed to blag his way into playing up front for Southampton in the Prem!! Leave Mitro alone, he's a good lad.
Anyway back on topic, I'm very worried about this one tbh - we NEED to win, but whether I THINK we'll win is a different matter. Our players probably shade it in terms of quality, but Sunderland have got there act together recently and are playing like a cohesive team and have something resembling a spine now with the likes of Kirshoff and Kone. We on the other hand seem disjointed and messy with too many players uninterested. Yes they were much better at Leicester, but the Leicester fans themselves were saying their team had an off day, but they still got a comfortable win. If Rafa gets a proper spine in there and his bromance with Sissoko actually results in him playing well for once, then we have a chance. otherwise hmmmm....
Mbemba is back in training and could be declared fit or the Derby as well as Colo. Would be a massive bonus to have both of them back as at the end of the day they are our best CB's. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/spor...s/newcastle-united-news-live-benitez-11059212
My head says defeat 1-0, my heart says 2-1 because we simply must win or we're down. Going with the heart. I'll be lashed either way as got Monday off
i'm actually getting quite nervous to be fair. Gonna get loads of burn in today and then hit the cans about 4pm to speed up the evening. Down the town for 9am for a breakfast of champions with a guinness and then on the swallie from 10am.
