[Jinky]

New tactics from Eddie.....bore the opposition to defeat....

[mush]

Miggy quietly having a good game. Putting himself about and doing the dirty work well

I’m surprised at the lack of fight and determination from their players. Maybe it will change in the second half if the managers gets around them but they have not made it the game I was expecting from them.

 

It's weird. When they had players that were happy to be there they were ferocious. All of these kids by and large have potential and are on display, so there's no edge to them. This isn't the Sunderland I remember.

[Smal]

Miggy looks better physically after a bit of a rest. Hope we can get Barnes back soon so Gordon can get the same.

[martoon]

So far, so good.

[mighty__mag]

We have completely kept these at bay, we could have done better with our chances, but all over the pitch we've won near every tackle, its been impressive.

Some great displays out there, Bruno and Joelinton are solid. Schar and Botman tidy.

 

More chances and we see these off.

[SUPERTOON]

Fingers crossed we get our shit housing tactics from last season back.

Beale doing his best Gerrard impression here.

 

We are in cruise control, hopefully we knock a few more past em.

[joeyt]

Can't even remember what their supposed one shot was

[Miggys First Goal]

Don’t know why we were all so worried. 
 

Famous last words 

[Shush]

Chris Waddle looking old as fuck.

[TRon]

Fabulous cross by Big Joe.

[Cronky]

I think this is a timely reminder of why VAR was brought in. We should be 2-0 up and against 10 men. 

 

I don't blame the ref because there's a tangle of bodies and it's a difficult spot. But the replay 100% shows that Ballard deliberately fell against Isak to bring him down.

Big Joe best player on the pitch. Longstaff simply isn't good enough. Are our fans even there? Predictably shit, considering the numbers.

12,000 hands being sat on for most of that

Yeah, pity it didn't make its way to Isak for a tap in but an OG is funnier.

[Ste]

First proper training session in weeks.

I thought Mighy was practically invisible… whilst Gordon’s been good ?

There have been 14 tackles in the whole game and Miggy has won 7 of them.

I don’t think it’s a pen having seen the replay.  It’s a red though. 

[Decky]

Attacking the Newcastle end for the second half.  

[MrRaspberryJam]

Waddle having a go at Isak for the red card issue. 

[Klaus]

Joelinton been class so far. Motm for me

I think if it goes to VAR it’s a free kick and red card. Sunderland are going to have to go for it second half so we need a second asap 

 

He still had a hold of his shirt inside the area.

 

Pen.
