Let's hope we are not having that discussion in a few months, with Merino playing at centre back :-(

Young Ethan perhaps lacks beef, yet he plays as if he believes he doesn't? One shudders to think if we'd be where we are if all those absentees...

This is the conversation we had in the summer. He simply doesn't trust Nwaneri in that central role and if he did, Eze wouldn't be here. And it...

We still almost won it at the end. If they'd scored 5-10 mins earlier we could still have turned it around.

If MnM hadn't been playing up front, he could have come on for Dev with fresh legs. But if he doesn't trust Ethan to come on for Easy or Norgy for...

Yes. The boss sounded relieved, delighted and very happy and proud to have negotiated the past few weeks in such good order, results-wise. It's on.

To be fair, he only brought the extra defender on in the 87th minute and the idea was reasonable- strengthen our physical presence in the box. It...

It?s far from a disaster. Not many sides will go there?. blah blah Just wish he?d have swapped a defender for a defender, or, as you say, Nwaneri...

Unbalancing the defence by adding another CH rarely plays out as managers intend either. Closing the game out when you?ve enjoyed almost 70%...

Even champions don't win every game they should. We take that tough, fighting away score draw and we move. We've had a terrific few weeks.

They're all massive threat on balls into the box. We are great at defending that usually but they gave us a really tough time. I thought Raya was...

Yes, very much so. Poor old Declan Rice was exhausted in the last 10 minutes, dead on his feet. You can't help the feeling that this is the sort...

They had two shots on target. These things happen. Never let a high ball bounce in the box, innit...

This is genuinely where all these sick notes could have made the difference. Fresh attacking options would have helped put them under the cosh. Thank...

The ****ing love on Sky for Sunderland getting a draw. At home....

No subs so far either

The way he worked that space :cloud9:

Finally booked that **** for his fifth foul on Saka.

:wave: welcome home, la

Nice to see us getting some snidey fouls in too.

Big improvement, here.

We're showing a bit of creativity here. Nice.... Big improvement on the first half so far. Lots still to do. They are really tough to play against.

DON'T LOSE IT THERE... :hehe:
