Chris_R Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Sunderland have made some good signings and I predict it will be difficult for us to beat them this year. That's a shame, as they deserve to be thrashed roundly every time they take the field. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulivye Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 We will draw at SOL and win at SJP imo. so i SHOULD edit the poll, huh? ...but, won't that screw up everyone's voting? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Just like last year Keane has spunked a load of money on has beens and squad fillers. Still firmly expect a bottom half finish from them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame, as they deserve to be thrashed roundly every time they take the field. i dont think their signings are so decent: teemu tainio, goofy diouf, pascal "mercenary" chimbonda - what is there to fear? im confident jonas can rip them a new arsehole, wherever we play them.

pedro111 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I agree, Draw at the SOL and win at SJP would have been the most popular and sensible option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.S.R. Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Instead of the usual mediocre players kicking lumps out of ours, we'll be treated to the sight of several frenchman diving and writhing around in agony. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatwax Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 They've added a few decent players and a bit of pace with Cisse but I don't think they've really improved the centre of the defence - at least not to my knowledge. They've lost their best defender from last season, Evans, and aren't left with many good options. I'm looking forward to McShane marking Owen again.

skryp2nit3 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Nosworthy is awful. Think he's decent actually. Consistent if not spectacular. Not sure if he's better than Evans though. Pretty sure SBR had some good words about him too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

macca888 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Unfortunately, they will be much stronger this year with their new signings. Apparently, they have signed Healey from Fulham and Ferdinand from WHU today, so they are going to be stronger this year. With Jones still to come back, they have strengthened up front and Ferdinand will add stability to the back. Their squad is no longer thin, not like ours but whilst we have more quality, I am worried that when injuries and suspensions kick in, we might suffer. I thought they played quite well against Liverpool and I dont think the Spuds will find them a pushover this weekend. Sunderland will not go down this season and will take a few suprise points this season. Having said that, I expect to bat them at home and draw at their place, at the very least.

If so that was also the year we won the Anglo Italian Cup. I would take a defeat away tbh if it mean't winning soething as high profile as that again.

Guest Definitely Maybe Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Nosworthy is awful. Oh yeah, you must be right then. I've seen every minute of both in a Sunderland shirt, you've seen Match of the Day highlights, but yeah, I'll bow to your superior knowledge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have seen Nosworthy more but you have a biased view of him, same as we do with some of our players. He's reliable and an average premiership defender probably in the Andy O Brien bracket if you're lucky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
