jed exodous 0 Posted September 26, 2011 Fairly even game so far, think we''re making them look better than they are by giving the ball away softly. Too many hoofs up field at the moment from Barnett. Bendtner looking good for them so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted September 26, 2011 At the risk of sounding like a miserable old git, I just can''t see us scoring.And as I type that, we bust them open down the left and nearly score!And then we do score! GET IN! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ron obvious 1,711 Posted September 26, 2011 How good is Fox! Several absolute peacy passes. Defence playing really well - very impressed with Naughton. Russell doing an excellent job; Barnett winning everything in the air (I''ve never seen anyone with such a leap - well not since Faustino Asprilla), & if he gets it on the deck he immediately passes to somewhere safe. Sensible lad.Then he goes & bloody scores!!!!!This is a TEAM.OTBC!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mister Chops 7 Posted September 26, 2011 Half time analysis from Gary Neville (very good analysis, much as I hate to say it) includes 5 minute slating of Titus Bramble. Ah, this is the life. Bottle of red wine beckons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jed exodous 0 Posted September 26, 2011 Lets not get too carried away. There is plenty of quality in that Sunderland team. Bendtner has already shown hes a decent target man. Barnetts doing a basic defenders job. Virtually every ball has been hoofed away, as Sunderland were coming back into it in the 10 minutes before the goal, i was becoming concerned. Fox has been great, Naughton too and Hoolahan is proving a great outlet and releiving the pressure from the defence and midfield. Fingers crossed we have a penalty-less 2nd half...

norfolkbroadslim 225 Posted September 26, 2011 Can''t believe how deep Bendtner is going just to try and start something. He is Sunderland''s best player tonight and I am delighted to see him keep dropping deep into Sunderland''s own half... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted September 26, 2011 I can''t believe how bad Wes Brown is. I expected it from John O''Shea, and he''s been better than Brown.Might see Holt soonish, I reckon... get Morison to take the standing ovation.From a design point of view, I quite like Sunderland''s away kit. Probably the nicest thing I can say about them so far.Oh FFS Norwich, just boot it out of play instead of fannying about! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jed exodous 0 Posted September 26, 2011 It was a great save, Ruddys really stepped up another level this season... Feeling quite comfortable at the moment. This is all a little unlike Norwich at the moment. Still waiting for us to give away the now customary penalty... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
