correctedI'd play them all regularly next season, Diamond, Neil, Embleton. Doubt Parkinson will though, it'll be so called tried and trusted first. We need a manager who's backed in that respect imo.

Backed? Only he'll decide whether to play the young uns and mix it up. Nothing to do with being backed or not.corrected
The less secure he is the less risks he’ll take.Backed? Only he'll decide whether to play the young uns and mix it up. Nothing to do with being backed or not.
Fairly generous to suggest that it's only backing that stops PP playing youths, marra. Whilst I'm sure it plays a part, he's ultimately like virtually every manager in British football in that he uses 'senior pros' as a security blanketThe less secure he is the less risks he’ll take.
Well if he’s openly unwanted, getting panned for losing every game, job’s fragile and at risk he isn’t going to play the long game. He needs permission to do so and some support via a plan we all agree with. I don’t think it’s the only reason. Out of respect for the other pro’s he will pick people on merit and rightly so or he disrespects them. Hence the need for it all to join up with strategy and recruitment and him to have clarity and backing.Fairly generous to suggest that it's only backing that stops PP playing youths, marra.

Well he wants to forget about that, the cheeky f*ckerSeems to find space in good areas and then power forward.
Attack-minded centre midfielder I think.What type of player is he?

HebburnIs he local?
YesDoes he support us?
Yeah I clocked that. Parkinson’s got that completely backwards.A system set up to fail.
The manager knows he is, at best, 2 bad months away from the sack.
Manager tailors club accordingly towards the next 2 months.
Tailoring the club towards the next 2 months brings shit consequences.
Eventually, it always catches up with the manager.
Rinse and repeat.

Youngster linked with Leeds United 'wants to play for Sunderland' and is forcing his way into Phil Parkinson's plans
Sunderland were barely half an hour into their first pre-season campaign when an unexpected opportunity arose.www.sunderlandecho.com
“As a young player, you don't get the chance in football to feel your way in. You've got to take your chance and make an impact when you come to train with the first team."
This is backwards, isn't it?
Why wouldn't you as a young player get the chance to "feel" your way in?
Are they expected at 18 to instantly improve the first team?
Positive when he gets it, nice and easy one two’s - difference against what we’ve endured for last 4-5 years is he actually wants to get beyond and revive the one two.Impressed again. Get him in and around the starting 11

These lads will have a big part this season from what I’ve seen...dynamic and full of confidence.
So play him out of position greatStart him instead of Gooch
