Off Topic Non-Sunderland games

You don't recognise Reece James?

 

It helps us strengthen our offense

 

He’s usually injured

 

Name is familiar, tbh I tend to not watch much PL at moment

 

Brilliant win

Second half was so so poor though

 

He's one of the best right backs in the world and when fit, England's best in my opinion. He's in there on merit.

 

Take the 3 points but second half was ****e. Still not convinced we should have kept Southgate

 

Absolutely fantastic result. Going down to 10 men and still winning away to the reigning champions and our hardest group game.

 

Naglesman out Tuchel in....

 

Haway man, remember when a draw in Italy was one of England's most impressive results?

Now we've gone over there and won and we complain about it not being a perfect performance.

For all we weren't great second half, Italy didn't really have any great chances to get a result. We were resolute.

 

I wonder if they've sped this up over fears that Spurs might approach him before the season is over.

 

Do we not have any male football presenters, or pitch-side presenters anymore ffs?

 

I'm more thinking of the talent we have compared to them now. We should have destroyed them tonight and made a statement for when we qualify for the tournament. If we routed them 5 nowt, the likes of France and Germany would have been worried. Now they can see we are still vulnerable.

 

Great point! Hadn’t even thought that but it’s very likely

 

I get what you're saying. If we played 2nd half the same as first half...and Grealish should have made it 3 anyway!
But in the past we might have folded but tonight we got it over the line.

 

Not allowed. Didn't you get the memo?

 

Aye but Grealish didn't didn't score and we didn't play the second half the same as the first. Hence why we win **** all.
Glad we hung on and won tonight so we can enjoy a QF shootout loss to Spain in the proper tournament though.

 

I'm actually with you on that.

 

I'm genuinely not a negative person, my glass is half full (literally ) but we need to be ruthless and send out a message in all the games we play if we are going to win a tournament.

 

On the contrary you're probably the most positive person on here

Wouldn't be surprised if you were distantly related to Luke O'Nien.
