I think Leadbitter has just about been our best player so far this season but maybe he needed a rest.

I couldn't agree more, him and hume have been a relevation this season and he needs to be on the pitch more than he isn't but a rest may do him some good. As long as he replaces Power or Dobson at the weekend I won't be unhappy. Dobson and Power being the main men in midfield would be a bad decision imo though.

It is. I would prefer honesty and say we going to rely on the older players and the youngsters won't be part of it - send them out on loan. The treatment of Diamond is becoming exceptionally annoying - second game with no pace whatsoever on the bench. Parkinson said in the press he needed to create a pathway for youth - utter lie. He said in the summer he needed to address the lack of pace - lie. The bloke is an utter soul killer.

Harrogate Town were desperate for Diamond back on loan, even till January. Surely if Parkinson wasn’t going to play Diamond for us he would of been better going to be a starter at a top half League Two team who we know he developed previously at. Baffling decision by the genius that is Parky.
 
Absolutely appalling team. Parky has lost the plot entirely tbh. Wyke again. f***ing minging. Dobson and power were always going to be in at the first opportunity, also a joke of a decision. Gooch sets up 2 in 2 games from wingback so let’s move him into central midfield or up front where he cannot play. Centre half at wingback. Wingback at centre half. Amazing this guy still has a job tbh

Probably qualifies as one of the worst Sunderland starting 11s of all time. Seems to get worse by the week

jusy don’t see the point in playing all these mediocre midfielders give the young lads a chance instead of power and Dobson the couldn’t possibly do any worse we need some raw talent cos where not guna sign anyone

As soon as he named Power team captain before the season start you knew our chances of getting out of this league were f****d!

It's exactly like when Honeyman always got a game, when Ross was here - not because of what he contributed to the team, but because he was the captain.
 
Given the conditions, injuries etc I don't think I have too much gripe with the first 11.

However the bench choices are very dull and if we go behind or the match is tight there is no point of difference.
 
Last time he made changes we know what happened at B Rovers. Huffy set of twats chucked there toys out of the pram. Just hope their reaction is better than that after the late equalizer against Gillingham. While the manager is an unadventurous dullard the players needed a good shoeing after that Rovers display.
