Why is it still winter in Sunderland?!You can not play a high line with Harry Maguire. He’s too slow, he can’t be a starter for us next year.We often seem unprepared when games start, especially away.Maguire and Martinez as a combo lack pace.Let's see if we can mount an attack against the mighty SunderlandThey are all over us! To my mind I think Mount is the only squad player in today with the quality to be a regular starter but obviously he's made of glass
Mainoo is on the pitch.Good position for Bruno thisSunderland who couldn't have been more obviously on the beach for the last few weeks suddenly bang up for it when they play Utd.
Same old thing
This is gonna go badly.We haven't actually started playing yet. Shocked, I tell you!
He's so average but people drool all over him. Mind boggling really.Bruno has to do the Ashley Young, Rooney assist here.Sunderland easily exploiting our slow defence when they push up the field.
I hate how we collect the slowest centre backs the league has ever seen.Oooh closeOoo.
Good idea that.
Not too far AmadI have a deep-rooted belief that we as a club are fundamentally ill-suited to passing out from the back and that it just isn't for us, and that seeing us do it is like watching us pretend to be something we aren't for the sake of trying to embrace what is current. That's just me.Amad, that's a really poor attempt.
With Zirkzee on the pitch? I wouldn't get your hopes upAmad doesn't have a strong shot.Sunderland who couldn't have been more obviously on the beach for the last few weeks suddenly bang up for it when they play Utd.
Same old thing
They're still in contention for the conference league to be fair. Doubt they've given up on the season just yet.Should have been an assist.Lammens injured?Real chance for Amad
Ha. Honestly hadn't seen him.Brobbey v Zirkzee is an interesting one.
It wasn't that poorPoor from Martinez.
Could have fooled me with their performance at home to Forest.Brave from Lammens.
Nah he’s a beastThe results have been good, but the way we play under Carrick is diabolical. This won’t be sustainable over a whole season.Zirkzee should not be leading the line. Should be feeding.
Ferdinand didn't play out from the back? We nearly always played out through the fullbacks.
Reverse angle shows you it wasn't even close. You have to hit the target from there.We look terribleMount got back well but midfield being overrun as expectedI fecking hate Zirkzee. Hes so fecking shit. I’m sorry but he winds me up so much.
Can’t trap a bag of cement 80% of the time.- Status
