Apparently he’s said he won’t play for Jamaica until they improve. ...you could, ya know, make them better by playing for them, Leon. I'm sure his complaints were about the infrastructure and the dysfunctional nature of the FA, rather than the quality of the team. That's not something that he can necessarily do anything about and as sad as it is to see minnows lose quality players, it is sometimes understandable on an individual level. No doubt there is an element of individualistic career based motivation too, mind. However if a football association is corrupt and shambolic it just encourages such a decision.

Doesn't score enough goals. He'd be an improvement as a target man compared to what we've got but his Joselu like record this season is one of the reasons they're bottom of the league.

I think the domestic rights will plateau now and potentially begin to slide. A lot of people with streaming boxes or at least saying no to subscribing to 2 providers. However the international rights probably have unlimited growth potential inhibited only by time zone differences.

Easy to engage in schadenfreude over Sturridge but our striker signing hasn't even made the pitch yet. It's almost like scrambling around for scraps on loan at the end of the transfer window leaves you signing unfit, unwanted rubbish.

It's a huge game. Win it and you'd fancy us to kick on and be relatively comfortable, lose it and then we've got Liverpool away and probably back into the bottom 3.

I completely agree it's best to not get carried away. However, neither Darlow or Elliot have given that much of a composed and all round goalkeeping display this season.

Not that I can remember it but apparently he had good games against England and Scotland last year.

Unsurprisingly he's talking shite.

Best game he's played for us by a country mile.

Oh my god what a human

That was the most incredible release of pent up frustration and energy at full time. Good god I'm electric.

The sooner people accept that they're staying up, the better.

Never understood the whole basking in misery & negativity in attempt to save yourself from disappointing thing like. Unless it's to have the small, empty victory of a 'I told you so' come the end of the season. Weird tbh. That's exactly what it is.

We are staying up, say we are staying up.

Bottom 3 it is.

Gan watch the Bundesliga or something man, Christ. Why would I watch the Bundesliga?

The sooner people accept the fact we're down the easier it is.

Palace are pish and we got battered by them last week. I really think we're gone like.

Yup, they both started one of the 0-3s against Sunderland when Pardew thought curses were actually real.

If context is important to a goal's quality then it has to be #1.

Blackburn got disgraceful crowds at times in the PL. Even when they were in the top half under Hughes they were getting 16k against Watford.

Even if they're fiddling the attendances they're still some of the highest in the Champ despite the dismal football and hopeless situation, and Sunderland are still certainly in the top 15-20 or so biggest clubs in the country. If we were in a situation as shit as theirs our attendances would plummet too. In 09/10 we opened up with 36k against Reading, and if we'd slumped into a relegation battle rather than a runaway title win it'd have continued to fall.

He's finished like. I'd rather Dummett.

Already had his film breakthrough.
