Sunderland Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[yiddopaul]

Great fucking game but I have never seen a player look less likely to score than Defoe today, anyone would have had a hat-trick today. COYS[/quot

You're right, Bobby would've got at least a brace. The mans on fire. Boy did we miss him today

Much better 2nd half please please please avb can we start matches in the same vein

Looking forward to the ratings thread- all the players did well, even Lloris apart from his mistake

 

[gushayes11]

Hope all these guys get a rest. Kids on Thursday. Some looked v tired.

Im sure some will but u cant complain about that result and performance. I know Sunderland are bottom but we were class second half. The only downside was not scoring more. But deserved win and a great week

Waiting for the Xmas DVD - Defoe's 100 top (missed) sitters...

 

[L-man]

Good interview with Dawson there

 

[TheSecretNonFootballer]

Nice result that. Id say we played in about 3rd gear for most of the match down to 2nd in some parts. Loving Capue as Centre half

Capoue is an extremely competent footballer.

Ok that was plain awful from Defoe there, who stays static in the 6 yard box.

It's why we signed soldado... But when he plays we don't cross the ball!

i thought aaron lennon had a fantastic game - he was everywhere

 

[Macspur261]

Thoroughly deserved 3 points, we looked a class above, which we are !

 

[Syn_13]

Happy with that. Ground out a well dederved win and played much better in the 2nd half.

Townsend has to play left wing for me. It's a no brainer.

 

[King of Otters]

Nice. Just need to get things right at WHL now.

Sunderland 1-2 Tottenham

COYS...

 

[lukadownthelane]

And Guess what, Townsend CAN play on the left, and CAN deliver a decent cross, who knew

He did more in 10 minutes than Chadli did in 80

 

[13VanDerBale13]

Good result, HOWEVER! we need to kill of games to avoid situations like that end the end, sooner or later we will get punished.

Just before many of you start flying in the clouds, let me remind you that Sunderland are sitting at the very bottom of the table. We should comfortably win against them rather than scraping our pants after the end of the game.

Whilest true, they lost 4-3 during the week with Chelsea. Chelsea didn't have it 'easy' and if it wasn't for Hazard, they would have lost.

I don't give a monkey's...Sunderland have been better under Poyet just because they were handicapped with that plank Di Canio for most of their games don't take the credit away from us. They just pushed Chelsea to the limit.

We should of won about 5-1. That;s what the fans want to see, creating clear cut chances....do that consistently and a steady flow of goals will come.

I'm delighted.

 

[Fig Newton]

Walker is still coming on really strongly, eh? Another excellent day for him. Dembele and Paulinho also played really well.

Fair play to Naughton. No complaints about his play today.

Also big ups to Capoue. First time to play CB this season and performed admirably.

Big 3 points....now bring on the Pool!

Please play the kids and fringe players against anzhi please- Liverpool at WHL next week is huge and need everyone fit and fresh. Still right in there with a team that is surely going to keep getting better
