*** Sunderland v Celtic Match Thread ***

[SAFCSpartan]

Possibly but they're not playing half their team man

Well marra just shows how strong they are in the depth of their squad and shows how weak we are especially in defence

 

[bowers2]

Pitch looks canny

We have four years to improve our keeper.

Was just about to post the same thing. Beggars belief.

The social media team do my head clean in. It's like they're oblivious as to what is actually happening. Fake positivity after results like this do nout but wind us up

An absolute shambles. We look worse than last season.

Of course we are - our 2 best players have gone from last season, and although i didnt rate mannone he is better than that shit keeper we have playing today

 

[Smartin]

So 1 week before season and we need, 1 striker, 2 centre midfielders, 2 centre backs and a goal keeper. Standard Sunderland.

Ndong is f***ing dreadful

 

[onkeldonald]

Ndong looks heavy and off the pace

 

[sheepman]

Grim!

Grim performance and Grim tactics

How can Grayson not see we have been overrun in midfield all game

 

[SAFC11]

Villa put 4 past us iirc

and man u and chelsea
and the mags

Apart from today, I can not remember us conceding more that 3 at SOL? I might well be wrong and airbrushed the match out of my memory?

We've done it loads of times. Villa, Palace, Arsenal are just a few from recent times.

Ndong is f***ing dreadful

Going to be a world beater in the Championship I heard.

Celtic aren't a very good team? Yes they are, there is a reason they p*ss on the scottish league by 30 points every season, it ain't a great league but has some decent teams in it like Aberdeen, Hearts, Rangers ect... but Celtic are way above all of them. Celtic have played really well, passed it about and shown us no mercy when shooting, maybe the game may of been different iof Vaughans shot and his penalty went in but it doesn't matter now. Celtic would finish in the top 10 in the premiership easy, maybe not the top 6 but top 10 yes.

will you just give it a rest man FFS

Didnt southampton beat us 4-0 the week after we won 4-0 at palace.

74' It has been a really tough afternoon for the lads. Of course, the scoreline doesn't read well but Grayson will be looking to draw some positives from the game ahead of Derby County next week.

Are there any positives?

Thought Grabban and McGeady looked ok. Vaughan looked desperate. Think Galloway and Browning will be ok with games.

 

[dangermows]

Why?

Because if they're shite players it'd be daft to expect them to be good.
