Off Topic Non-Sunderland games

I'm amazed they've managed to keep hold of ©Best Player in League One Barry Bannan seeing as he's the world's greatest living footballer. Surely Man City or Bayern will come calling before the end of this window.

 

35 later this year. I know he gets overhyped, especially by Sky, but he is a good footballer. Excellent vision

 

He's decent in L1. Nowt special any higher than that

 

Plymouth v Cheltenham tonight in the cup

Rooney gets his first win there, surely?

 

11 changes for Sheff Wed

 

Mbappe starts for Real Madrid tonight in the Super Cup

 

: Manchester City winger Oscar Bobb has just fractured a bone in his leg

He’ll be out for several months as City sources confirm.

…get well soon, Oscar

Such a shame. I was really looking forward to see how he does this season. He looks an amazing talent

 

Sheff Wed 1-0 up inside a minute and playing some really tidy stuff so far

 

1-1, wtf was the defender doing?

 

Not quite sure but it was pathetic

 

Bloody hell keeper

 

1-2, what on earth is going on

 

Hull ‘keeper has had a stinker

 

Everyone wants to play out from the back

 

Didn’t notice our lad kick the ball out once last night, maybe someone will correct me.

 

Gelhardt doing canny here. Seems to be playing off the right

 

Real Madrid team is absolutely jaw dropping.

Incredible side and bench they have put together, even by their standards.

 

Probably going to end up with egg on my face because he’s incredible but looking at that Madrid front 3 they’re all just so similar I can’t see Mbappe performing as well in the 9 role if they’re to stay the same over the course of the season.

 

I agree. I have a hunch they'll end up dropping Rodrygo, moving Vini to the right, Mbappe to the left and playing Jude in the false 9 again. No chance they line up in a Champions League semi final vs City with the front 4 they are playing tonight.
