*~*~* Sunderland v Swansea match thread *~*~*

[JL1985]

Chernobyl losing

 

[Billy Batts]

Watson, who shouldn’t be playing, gives away a free kick leading to a goal.

RLB is writing the book on how to piss off the fans and ensure there’s absolutely no momentum going into a playoff campaign.

Sooner he fucks off the better.

It was never a free kick in a million years though.

 

[Blind Joe Death]

I find his team selection, tactics, substitutions and overall demeanour bizarre.

That’s life.

His demeanor? He’s just French man

 

[phil]

Brilliant diagonal again and then an important block from Luke

 

[Lawrenceslongthrowin]

get Watson off, heart not in it and he’s shit

 

[Veteran2]

How much are we getting for Watson?

 

[FishburnMackem]

I find his team selection, tactics, substitutions and overall demeanour bizarre.

That’s life.

God forbid you have an opinion and voice it on a ... Football forum

 

[The Situation]

We've been playing like this for months and months now.

Not sure why every week people see it as some sort of surprise.

I know the reaction I'll get for mentioning xG, but the xG table has us 10 points worse off and in that fight with several teams for a playoff spot.

A few very lucky results in comparison to our performances at the start of the season have given us the cushion but it's been pretty desperate for a significant amount of time now.

 

[Iansun45]

Why the fuck are.we.terrified to shoot

 

[SuperSunderland]

It was never a free kick in a million years though.

Regardless if it was or wasn’t- that fact we can’t defend a basic cross into the box and react so slow to the 2nd ball sums up our last 15 or so games - we are so pedestrian

 

[marley's ghost]

I find his team selection, tactics, substitutions and overall demeanour bizarre.

That’s life.

And I find it bizarre that you can't see his quality.

 

[Church]

I wonder what system the manager is working on for our play off matches.
Hopefully this isn't it.

Anyway, the pitch looks lovely and there's no rubbish blowing around (except for the lads lolzzz).

 

[chuckyroll]

feel
sorry for anyone clinging to hope that we are having a break for the playoffs we will be out the first leg unless theirs a big shake up , been absolute terrible for months even though we have scrapped a few wins

That's the thing people are actually using excuses for the predicament and expect this lot to turn it on come the play offs. They've gradually became worse over time look disjointed lacking in confidence and individually poor

 

[gavlarsafc89]

how do we get these idiots to improve?

That was arguably the worst decision I’ve seen for a free kick and the arrogance to just tell Watson to go away.

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

And I find it bizarre that you can't see his quality.

Id like to see a modicum of quality on the pitch tbh.

 

[Iansun45]

And I find it bizarre that you can't see his quality.

What is he quality

 

[Georgewhitt]

Just dipped in to check if there are meltdowns happening.

Yep.

 

[Geppetto]

I find his team selection, tactics, substitutions and overall demeanour bizarre.

That’s life.

What's wrong with his selection today and his demeanour??

 

[DaveH]

We have not looked any good since October

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

What's wrong with his selection today and his demeanour??

Selection today was okay, Tuesday it was shocking.

He spends every game with his hands in his pockets, then tells us how it was interesting when we lose. Says we’ll learn from it, when the evidence suggests the opposite.
