Match Day Thread Sunderland v Hull City

I would have started Slater for his energy. Other than that a strong line up.

 

Lincoln on the bench but no Kamara

 

Same midfield that sat the game out at Burnley , hope to see more life this time

 

looks a very strong team, we win 2-1

 

Yet another roll of the dice, we'll see. He really doesn't fancy Jacob does he, not even on the bench.

 

Is Kamara Injured ? I wouldn't have started him but thought he would be on the bench

 

Illness.

 

Can look as strong as ya like on paper, they need to show up and put a shift in. Hoping for a Sheffield type performance here, c'mon City.

 

Crooks and Matazo both start - where's the legs in midfield?

 

Looks like 4-2-1-3. Could well be overrun in midfield.

 

But would rather have him on the bench then Jacob. If the conspiracy theory was true which i pressure you're alluding to then surely he wouldn't be on the bench

 

Agree, looks a fairly strong side, and bench, especially for a club in our position ....BUT ....theirs looks a very very strong side (and bench).
Sorry, but not expecting anything from today. You never know though...
....and who needs LBs anyway!

 

No suggestion other than very odd again. As someone said, no legs or energy in that midfield, both things Puerta would offer.

 

This is often the point. I think a lot of our fans don't take the opposition in to account

 

I just don't think Selles rates him that highly otherwise he wouldn't have signed Crooks and Matazo in Jan. Some managers just like their own players

 

We needed players in that position as we only had Slater and Puerta playing in it

 

I think it’s a tad unfair to say Matazo doesn’t offer legs

 

He was our player of the month in December and scored his first goal against Doncaster in January before being dropped. Very odd.

 

Based on what evidence?

 

I think we will get a good point today
