    With the last two games I feel that the team has started to gel (better late than never). So chaps, do you think that Gus will stick with the same team that started against Chelsea, barring any injuries that is?

    Glad he went unchanged against Chelsea.

    Giacch pushing for a start? He's been on the pitch for three of our last four goals. Saw an astonishing stat today- Larsson has started 9 of our last 21 league games - we haven't lost a single one!

    the midfield 3 from yesterday is good for away games were we have to do alot of defending but for a home game when we need to do the attacking will they be able to create the chances needed to unlock a packed defence i not so sure. i think we need to play a more attack minded player in there

    Maybe so but the players who beat chelsea and got a draw at citeh have earned the right to stay on imo. If we don't look like creating anything at 60 mins or so then we can look at changes.

    And regarding Johnno's chance, have to say at first I thought it was a colossal **** up but watching back it was a really, REALLY good recovery from Azpilicueta (I think it was him). Yes he'd have been better off hitting it first time with his right boot in hindsight, but I don't actually blame him for trying to shift it onto his favoured side - hard to foresee such a great challenge coming in.

    no need to shift it the shot was on with his right and he should have hit it,if this had been cw or ja it would have been hell on here ,but the win has masked it ,

    Still on AJ's back I see

    He should have shot with his right, but no one is going to make the right decision every single time, it didn't cost us the game so it doesn't matter in the slightest

    this is the key, every team has parked the bus this season, every team.

    this is the key to the remaining home games

    we have to find a way to clear the bus

    an away point at sunderland is a precious one

    Cardiff need the win, so they won't park the bus

    Swansea will be safe so won't need any points and therefore won't park the bus. That's not their style in any case

    WBA will be tricky, hopefully by that point they need 3 points

    I would stick Giacch in at the expense of either JC or Seb. That's not me knocking them just at home against another poor team I would prefer someone with more creativity. I believe with AJ, Connor and Fabio upfront Giacch could be that man.
    Not concerned if he does play the same team mind . Certainly can't knock them for the last two performances.

    Would imagine the fans will finally be right up for the game next Sunday and will hit 45/46,000. Let's hope we are the 12th man and our home form changes to give us three vital points.

    That's the one dilemma I'd have picking the team. I think I'd go with Giacc, Catts and Seb

    I am a massive Giacc fan but think we should stick with the same team and have him as our plan B from the bench.
