I would love to see Lucas Leiva, Yossi Benayoun Mascherano and Ryan Babel start for this game.

 

We can rest Alonso, Gerrard, Pennant for this game.

I think this one will be a tough one. Most of our players have been away in Europe whilst theirs have been licking their wounds and ears after last weeks display. Keane has all week to get them in the right frame of mind. This is going to be a lot closer than it should be. Also we always get beat in the North East with this ref :(

Strongest team possible please. If Stevie needs to rest his toe then play Mascherano or Sissoko alongside Alonso. Possibly Babel for Riise at left mid, but other than that, keep the same team.

 

Sunderland just got beat 3-0 by Wigan. They will be a different proposition in front of their own fans. I expect a tough battle, though once it has calmed down a bit our superior quality should tell. Imperative to get the three points.

Buy 'Championship Manager 2007 - Lunatic Edition' and play them.

 

There is a message that has been drummed into us since Arsenal went unbeaten followed by Chelsea taking up the baton - every game must be taken seriously to make sure we dont fall off the pace

I seriously think a midfield with Leiva, Benayoun, Mascherano and Babel will be strong enough to beat them.

I don't give a f*** about mockering, they're f***ing s**** and if we don't beat them we'll have played terrible. I mean look at the team they played vs Wigan,

 

Sunderland: Gordon, Halford, Nosworthy, McShane (Anderson 62), Wallace, Richardson, Etuhu, Yorke (Collins 46), Murphy, Chopra, Stokes (Miller 46).

 

That's bloody awful.

 

4-0 Liverpool.

Sh*t or not, beware Keane's dogs of war. :(

Levia has never played before in the Premiership, away at one of the newly promoted teams who are likely to try kicking us up in the air all day isn't the place to give him his debut.

Is Nyron Nosworthy as hopeless at centre half as he was at right back last time they were in the division? (Yes I do realise that means he'll now play a blinder)

 

Whatever did happen to Stephen Wright?

we're playing away - withour record, we need to field the strongest team we can to ensure the 3 points

Masch aside, they'd get kicked off the park. This isn't going to be the match to start introducing youngsters/newbies. Let Pennant and Riise run at them all day and just pepper the area with crosses, with Crouch and Voronin running rings around the CBs

 

And you want Alonso and Sissoko in the middle

not at all, nosworthy's converted to a capable centreback.

 

sunderland's midfield however is f***ing s****.

They'll work hard for an hour or so with not a great deal of attacking threat. We must do 2 things and we'll win the game:

Stay patient

Don't give them anything to hang onto

Their midfield does look shockingly bad. We've got to be looking at comfortably dominating there even sans Gerrard.

Posted

not sure where this idea that they're going to kick f*** out of us has come from. dwight yorke? kieran richardson? thingy halford? chopra? they're not the most physical team, only etuhu is any type of a clogger.

Posted

The only change I'd make to the team that started against Chelsea (assuming that Masch comes in for Gerrard) would be to replace Kuyt with Crouch.

 

Don't get me wrong, I think Kuyt's been playing well recently, but looking at how the Sunderland defence couldn't handle Heskey last weekend, Crouch would cause them even more problems.
