The Black Cats travel to Old Trafford to play Manchester United on Saturday after picking up points against Manchester City, Chelsea and Cardiff City. "The players are desperate to play again and go on and keep winning," Poyet told reporters. "The feeling is great. We need to make sure we take into consideration everything we've done, but knowing that there's plenty to do. It's going to be a special game for everybody." Sunderland are out of the relegation zone on goal difference with three games left to play.
Any points from today's game is a massive bonus and considering our recent form, why not? A draw is acheivable IMO.
Usually tight games down there in Manchester. A squeaky win, for either teams, is likely. Hope we can continue this "miracle".....and "why not?". COME ON !!!! (A big Bruce Sprinsteen fan is me: 'Countin' On A Miracle').
