I'm sure it is, just the XG lot are a proper pet hate of mine, football being reduced into a pseudo-intellectual exercise of numbers and equations. Oh yes, Newcastle could have won today with their XG of 2.87453. Piss off

Clicked on this thinking it may be interesting, but nope. Another trying to reduce football to a mathematical equation. First words "XG". Everything stat-based, dull as fuck. Football yuppies. Wear a retro kit, talk about XG and percentages = certified football journo in 2020.

Pardew-esque.

I think when it comes to rumours, one does not need confirmation. In fact, that is the very nature of a rumour.

Lovely, reminds me a bit of the one he scored against Fulham away when we got beat 5-2 I think it was.

Probably could, he's better than Rodrygo & Vinícius.

He's talked about it a few times before, quite passionately actually.

15 minute presentation on the Safe Zone incoming at half time.

It's a slide from Lee Johnson's tactics powerpoint with Barnsley, apparently.

What can be expected of the new look Sunderland...

Had to dig it out. Chronicle tweeted this the same day. not a great day for north east journalism :lol:

Hojbjerg for coming in and transforming the way a team can play. Spurs look way better with him and could potentially mount a title challenge. Jota, Wilson, James, Barkley after that, in that order.

Rondon for me, though I think Wilson (evidently) has more goals in him, I enjoyed how Rondon enabled us to play, really powerful but also stylish player.

1-0 McArthur

I think the flat vector version they done a few years ago with just the black or white stroke modernises it enough and makes it more flexible without needing to simplify it at all from a design pov.

I think it's the best one in the league. Objectively. Arsenal's old one was great like. On another note, ever noticed how many PL team badges have roses on them?

A Rollei. Nice.

:lol:

Too poor defensively. Can play some alright stuff though. That said being 3-2 down with limited time remaining, you're going to be on the front foot and able to play more as the other team naturally drops off.

Surely Ashley has to look to replace him if there's no upturn in performances and results. If he is serious about selling the club, which we've now reason to believe he is, he can't sit back and watch Bruce run the risk of relegation and potentially ruin the value of the proposed deal.

He was trying to play it long to the striker. It's instinct.

8 goals in last 9 matches isnt bad like Should have 2 already today. Not as clinical as expected from the hype.
