Martin O'Neill has named an unchanged side for the lunchtime kick-off against Tottenham Hotspur. Matt Kilgallon partners Michael Turner at the back while Jack Colback continues on the left side of defence with both Kieran Richardson and Wayne Bridge on the bench. Sunderland: Mignolet, Bardsley, Colback, Kilgallon, Turner, Larsson, McClean, Cattermole (C), Gardner, Sessegnon, Bendtner. Subs: Bridge, Richardson, Vaughan, Dong-won, Meyler, Kyrgiakos, Westwood. Tottenham: Friedel, Walker, Assou-Ekotto, Kaboul, Gallas, Sandro, Bale, Parker (C), Modric, van der Vaart, Adebayor. Subs: Lennon, Saha, Defoe, Kranjcar, Livermore, Nelsen, Cudicini.
good solid team that is capable of getting the 3points today but it certainly will not be easy. Fingers crossed Catts injury problem over this last week will not come back to haunt MoN's team selection and Campbell cannot of recovered from his knock. No Wickham again on the bench is interesting, surely the lad needs a year out on loan to either a promoted side or a championship outfit were he will play the majority of games. Would love 4points from the 2games over easter
Arry gone with Sandro(good player) to stiffen up the midfield, but plenty on the bench Lennon Defoe Saha Kranjcar if we need to play catch up
