My all time Sunderland team (4-3-3)

Monty (The best !)


Malone (great in defence, athletic, and good at getting forward, to relieve the pressure)

Scott (Decent, reliable defender, and usually, reliable from the penalty spot)

Watson (brilliant and dependable centre back. Nothing got past him)

Bould (Experienced, dependable,, centre back, and like Watson, an excellent reader of the game)




Rae (A great engine, box to box player. Could break up play, and was creative too. Scored goals from midfield)

Ball (Inspirational, no nonsense, midfielder, and leader of men. Hard as ****ing nails, would run through brick walls, for the team.)

Summerbee (reliable right winger, lacked pace and tricks, but could deliver the perfect cross for Quinny)





Hughes (The most skillful player I've ever seen, playing for the Lads.
Had pace, trickery and goals)

Quinn (Not just a great target man, but very good on the deck, and a perfect foil for SKP)

SKP (Lethal in front of goal, scored headers, tap ins, and screamer's, from distance)



Subs - Sorensen, Bolton, Hutchison, Rowell, Defoe,

 

Hero worship
You either loved him or you didn't, I did,

Brian Howard Clough, was an English football player and manager. He played as a striker and remains one of the Football League's highest goalscorers, but his career was shortened by a serious injury. As a manager, Clough's name is closely associated with that of Peter Taylor, who served as his assistant manager at various clubs in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. They achieved great successes with Derby County and Nottingham Forest. Clough is also remembered for doing frequent radio and television interviews in which he made controversial remarks about players, other managers, and the overall state of the game.

During his playing career with Middlesbrough and Sunderland, Clough scored 251 league goals from 274 starts, making him the third most prolific scorer in the league, with a conversion rate of 91.61%. He also won two England caps, both in 1959. Clough retired from playing at the age of 29, after sustaining anterior cruciate ligament damage.
Cough died in 2004 and a statue in his memory that was paid for by local people was unveiled in the town's Albert Park in 2007.
