Sunderland V Derby Match Thread

[ZOMBIES]

This has actually been better value to watch than most of our games in the Premier League (trying to defend for 90 minutes against, like, Stoke City)

f***ing hell man.

I'm only on my second tin an arl.

We've looked pretty good. Ndong started in Tommy Miller mode but Hineyman has now taken over in that role. McGeady looks very good, Grabban is athletic and looks lovely, Vaughan's first touch is poor, Catts and jones are giving everything. Pleased overall. Should be winning.

Cheers as I'm not watching it

Given that Derby are pre season favourites for at least top 6 I'm more confident than previous...

 

[Wise Man Says]

Bar one moment that's been a great first half performance

It was ok in parts. We lack a quality centre forward and defensively look shaky

 

[one armed boxer]

I like us closing down and the workrate. However we lost our way a little with the ball, more composure and ball retention and we'll be ok.

I'm still nervous however every time they attack.

 

[RossTheNinja]

Sounds crap on tele!

I'm watching it with Arabic commentary. Still making more sense than Gary Bennett

They look crap. It's a crap league, no doubt

 

[SuperKevsLeftBoot]

Really need a decent striker and another winger (or keep khazri).
Lens would have smashed these.
Need a big man up too as well

See the ref after Cattermole's tackle. Looked to me like when they appealed he said "Great tackle".

It's them high shorts.

We've looked pretty good. Ndong started in Tommy Miller mode but Honeyman has now taken over in that role. McGeady looks very good, Grabban is athletic and looks lovely, Vaughan's first touch is poor, Catts and jones are giving everything. Pleased overall. Should be winning.

Perv! Reported!

 

[JKs canoe]

Shteve defiantly persevering with the tuft I see

 

[Derby Mackem]

Ref after Catts challenge:

"Great tackle" (dismissivly)

Anyone else lip-read it as that?

Yep - liked that

 

[RossTheNinja]

It's them high shorts.

Took me a minute, that one

 

[Mr Redknapp]

It's them high shorts.

 

[BucketBiff]

Khazri will tear these to bits IMO. Good player to bring on against tired legs

Literally came on here to say swap Honeyman with Khazri and this is ours. We can't defend for shit so might aswell give them a major headache

hat?

- Dominated one of the better sides in the division for 45 minutes
- Did not capitulate as we normally do after conceding first
- The midfield has been a level above
- Work rate excellent, especially Grabban who is making selfless runs into space offering an outlet

On the other hand, Steele and Galloway are an accident waiting to happen.

Dominated? Have we fook!
