If Chelsea or Man City lose their captain a week's mourning is declared. We've lost 2 in consecutive games as well as Kaboul & Borini. We lost our way today but we gave it a go away from home and both strikers scored. It also looks like Allardyce is watching the players in training ....... Watmore coming on before Graham
The Watmore comment was tongue in cheek but he would certainly have been at them and it`s unlikely we would have ended up worse off. I think you`re right about Rodwell at CB. His only chance now I reckon.
How? We're two months away with a December from hell before it can be addressed adequately. Only thing I can think of is Rodders mate. One thing is for certain Wes and Coates isn't good enough, Nor is Vergini and Roberge. It's looking pretty bleak defensively for a few month and beyond if Eilis doesn't get his hand in his pocket.
Rodwell is a waste in midfield so, I agree, let's put him in the back four where he's played before. Until Coates scored, with his striker in an offside position, we were looking like we could gain a valuable point. Can we appeal?
Thats it !! Missing today or subbed O'shea Kabs Catts Borini Ola The Spine of our team. Like or loath them thats our lot, and they are all out injured. Hopefully not for much longer
Agreed...not much can be done until December. But FFS, be ready to pull the trigger on your identified target the minute the window opens. On another note, Soto are quite happy with Van Djiik I would say. Pisses me off.
I was campaigning for him for 2 years and was told he was 'only looking good because he was in Scotland'.
Where`s Matthews in all this? Is he still recovering? Don`t know whether he`s any good, haven`t seen enough to judge.
More than a few expressed that opinion. All quiet now. He's a stud. Would look awful good in our side.
BTW, just noticed that the Mag board, who reckon we're obsessed, started a Sunderland thread on a Sunday as we lost
BBC asked him about that and he said it wouldn't happen unless we'd run out of option or he'd trained Rodwell with the centre halves. Pointless otherwise in his words
Quote from Big Sam after the game apparently... "we got the game back to 2-2 from 2-0 down. Come on lads, that's enough. That's like a win." Worrying.
