Match Day Thread Sunderland v Rochdale - Saturday 6th March - KO 15:00

Peterborough's next two games are Hull and Portsmouth, their last two are Lincoln and Doncaster ...

... there's everything to play for.

 

yes top 2 definitely on mate and hopefully break our Wembley hoodoo next Sunday

and well done to Charlie Wyke on 20 league goals hopefully he keep proving us wrong this season as i like many wrote him off

 

With onien and at times power at centre back and mcfadzean at left back. Johnson’s doing well, its as simple as that.

 

He's done well given the injury situation, but he's gotten lucky with results. I'm not convinced by him, I find the management speak and coaching manual jargon extremely wearing. That said, give him his due, he's got us winning games and he's getting the best out of Wyke and McGeady.

Wyke 17 goals in 19 games under Johnson
Wyke 12 goals in 48 games under Parkinson
Wyke 7 goals in 75 games under Ross
(Not taking into account games where he wasn't available)

Marked difference

"Ollie Younger has had his say after earning his first league start for Sunderland, helping the Lads to a 2-0 win over Rochdale."

He (Wyke) must be the most improved player at the club.
His movement, first touch and overall game is so much better now.
Under Parkinson he looked like he was playing with lead boots on, he hardly ever got on the end of a cross and when he did it would bounce off his head in the wrong direction.
It's amazing what some good coaching can do.

 

Sounds like a fairly level headed lad. I hope he continues to progress in the way he has, and becomes a good asset for the club. Has to be a candidate for the Left Back slot on todays performance. He looks much more solid than McFadzean or Vokins, and hopefully will help to nullify the weakness in our team that the opposition will currently feel they can exploit.

 

Is he a left footer (don’t men RC either). ?

 

Who is Ollie Younger?
Ollie Younger is 21-years-old, born on 14th November 1999, and is a right-footed professional football player from England. Ollie Younger is currently playing for Sunderland in League One as a Defender (Left)

 

It really is mate, Johnson deserves a lot of credit for what he's done with the lads. We could potentially go a long way with an intelligent bloke like him in charge and a similarly intelligent owner. Good times.

 

Are you really saying that LJ has got the team playing better through luck?

 

Unlucky with injuries. Not sure how we've been lucky with results like. Some people just never happy or satisfied.

 

Can't see them asking that, unless they get him to sign an extension in the summer. His contract ends in one year, I reckon they'd snap our hands off for £3mil

 

oh dear me what a pity never mind. What goes round comes round eat **** twat

 

mate have you got anything positive to say about Jock Mc FAZZ I honestly think he **** and so have not heard one fan saying he has done something right or given him praise, I get what your saying about getting behind the guys but come on he's a ****ing liability, and against better opposition we will get gutted playing him. I await your comments on why you think he's is good enough to have a starting shirt

 

Unlucky with injuries, unlucky with Covid, unlucky with some results, unlucky with some referees, unlucky with the imposition of the salary cap and the issues it caused in the transfer window.

 

Don't think I said that

 

I like him a lot, great player, talks well on and off the pitch, bubbly personality. I bet he's a great influence on the team with all that.
Hope we sign him and make him captain.
Great hair too

 

Was listening to absolute radio yesterday whilst bottling home brew pre match.
The presenters were constantly banging on about Sunderland. How well we are doing and their top pick for a win of the day.
It was really refreshing to hear.
So was my home brew Mexican cerveza during the match

 

Double post ffs.
