*** Sunderland v Ipswich match thread ***

[Zidane]

He could have done without the injuries today

 

[Windypants]

With those players, isn't 352 a better formation? Gooch / Winnie as wing backs, Neil, Evans and Embo as the CM3 and Stewart and Broadhead up front?

 

[Swinny14]

Gooch has been absolutely awful, I mean awful yet still ahead of those on the bench, damning.

As has onein yet 1st name on team sheet

 

[Billy Batts]

Bailey Wright man. Fuck off.

 

[Quillips]

I’d question Wright and hope Neil isn’t LB. Gooch has been poor but imo it’s him not being sharp after injury.

On the plus side we have Stewart and Broadhead in the starting 11.

 

[gowlcra]

It's a big game for him today.

He will do the same shite he does every time he plays. He must be incredibly easily to play against

 

[ajsafc]

He's tying his hardest to get sacked like.

 

[Mboma]

Could be 3 at the back?...Onien in defence with Goch LWB?

I'll be proper pissed off if he puts Neil at LB like!

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Gooch

 

[Billy Batts]

What was the point in Alves if you’re going to play Wright anyway? Johnson never learned a thing last season.

No idea how Gooch has kept his place either, he has been shocking

This. Alves might aswell tell Johnson to get fucked and head back down the A1.

Gooch

Well since you put it like that there’s not a lot could be done. Hopefully they have somewhere safer now.

Off its tits. Mag to a T.

Looks like he knows his way around a Jack Russell

 

[the earl percy]

He’s an absolute rotter.

Not to mention being a cad and a bounder

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

Could be 3 at the back?...Onien in defence with Goch LWB?

Or Winchester and Neil WB, with Evans sitting behind Gooch and Embleton with Stewart and Broadhead up front

 

[Hongkongphooey]

He’s an absolute rotter.

And an absolute shower

 

[bowers2]

Anyone know what’s happened to Cirkin?

And surely he isn’t playing Wright in a 4 - must be O’Nien centre half with Wright and Doyle?

He’s not emotionally healed.

O’Nien gets stuck in, I agree form has dipped and it’s perhaps a problem. But the game doesn’t pass him by as much as Gooch.

 

[Dilligaf60]

And an absolute shower

Toerag mate.

 

[Hugh Gains]

Friend of mine supports Ipswich and says they’re playing well and some of the best stuff they’ve seen in a couple of seasons.

On that basis I’m worried due to our form.
