    It makes me cringe when we sing songs about Newcastle in games like this, and any other game for that matter ,which is completely irrelevant to our rivalry with them

    Mayenda looks good. Wish Jobe would use his physicality more. Goes down too easy.

    Pretty good half that against a decent side. Holding a good shape when Forest have the ball and look to press at the right time. Had some nice possession ourselves as well. Enjoying Mayenda, right handful.

    I think as he progresses and develops every year he will be.

    It reminds me of Adam Sandler in the Water Boy, everyone is putting younger and younger players into their squads.
    It started off with Rooney.
    Then:

    Lamine Yamal
    Güler
    Bellingham
    Rigg
    Endrick
    And many more

    Mendy to Sunderland

    "When Sunderland arrived, there was no more debate. I could have gone into exile in Saudi Arabia with the idea of a golden retirement but I still have things to do in football and when Yace (his advisor Yacine Ayad, editor's note) called me to tell me Sunderland, it was as if I had blinkers on. It's a sporting choice and I'm really looking forward to starting this new adventure. I know the club well, he told me about the president Kyril Louis-Dreyfus, his values and his convictions which are those that / share. There's also the coach Régis Le Bris, a very strong tactical coach, who can help me move up a level. He exudes serenity and natural strength. I also watched the three seasons of the documentary

    "Sunderland 'Til I Die". I know that it's a club that can bring me a lot. I'm really looking forward to my medical to go to England with my wife and children and to discover this stadium, these fans and this magnificent atmosphere," the interested party told us. Under contract with SM Caen until June 2026, the 30-year-old striker is now waiting for the two clubs to find common ground. As a reminder, Sunderland recently sent an offer to the Normandy management

    1-1. Not a great goal to concede, no need for Hume to vacate his area like that
