Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Stoke City FC – Saturday 11th January 2025 - KO 15:00

absolutely. Don’t think there’s any indication the club think otherwise. Played regularly lately out of necessity but could easily have been dropped today

 

patchwork side but a well coached squad with a good way of approaching the game

best weve looked in many a year tactically

 

Here is the mythical creature. Only seen once a year.

The SAMED!

 

Samed coming on

 

Here we go

 

I'm predicting a Kirchhoff style debut

 

Hjelde has been decent today, doing alright at left back too.

 

Aleksic is a proper goal threat, gets himself in some great positions.

 

Thought it might be Neil going off for Samed. Not sure I like the idea of Neil playing 120 minutes

 

that said assuming Salis is fit it’s not like we’re short in midfield now

 

Mayendas potential is frightening

 

Plymouth lead at Brentford

 

Players like Mayenda are so exciting because we saw what happened to Jobe after a season of first team football. How good could he be next season?

 

He didnt play much of the first 45

 

Connolly with a good chance
- keeper saves

 

That’s brilliant by AA. Took the game by the scruff of the neck second half

 

Aouchiche running the game now

 

Aouchiche is toying with these

 

Connolly with another chance
