Cant wait till Saturday for this, its a joy to go to the matches at the moment and long may it continue, games cant come quick enough and the players are also giving that impression. They are loving it and enjoying themselves on the pitch, full of confidence and as motivated as I have seen a Sunderland side in many years. Cant see anything other than a win but I would like to see us give someone a good hiding and get the place bouncing, 4-0 to the lads. Thanks again RTB another cracker
I’d take any win, as long as we do win. I’ve watched the Boro game again and whilst we had many plusses, the game really could’ve gone either way. I still think we’re to open at the back and a team on a good day will make us pay. (Eg Plymouth) Id love a comfy win and I fancy 3-1, but I fear another close nailbiter. Just win lads, no more slip ups when we least expect it, and we’ll gan up. Bart
I'd think they'd want him in training for a couple of weeks first? Think it might be end of Feb or even early March?
Said I wouldn't but cannot help myself. 8-0. I want revenge. Personally I think the only thing that can beat us is our complacency. Get at them from the kick off and get an early goal. Hopefully their heads drop and we play with confidence and a swagger. The lads will still be buzzing after Boro so let's put it all together boys, do the business and let us fans relax for the 2nd half and just marvel at how lucky we are to be watching yourselves.
What I really enjoy is that the Sunderland manager clearly knows more than us, although I know some supporters would disagree. 'Why on earth isn't Le Fée playing in the middle?' ... 'Because I know him and he's only at 70%'. 'Why aren't we dropping Rigg when he's exhausted?' ... 'Because he's important to how we play and he's not exhausted'. 'Why isn't he bringing more subs on and earlier?' ... 'Because I want the players to develop, solve these problems and learn'. 'Why is he playing Samed when he's clearly not ready for the Championship' ... 'Errr, did you see him at Boro?' Sorry for the slight sarcasm but it's obvious that he's doing things more right than wrong ... ... it won't always succeed but I'd rather sit back and believe than continually second guess him. That's just me
It’s a dodgy lead isn’t it.? Do you press on for number 3 or try and defend what you’ve got? AND if you do concede one, then all hell breaks loose as they go for the equaliser!
We are more than capable of scoring 3 or 4 but up until now we have been very good, lets just trust the manager and players. There will be blips no doubt but the beauty of this squad of players is those blips dont seem to bother them
I would prefer Mundle to take his time and be match fit before he gets a game for the first team. We need him ready for the playoffs. Not sure where Brown fits in now.
