lalaboi: All the pre-match hype about them being our boogey team based on thier exploits against us last season. Them bin wan carry set-piece undo us, but we bam. Plus Seb Larsson was too overworked to put decent balls in. Whatever the outcome of dem Soton - Citeh game, nothing do us. At the very least, we'd still be 4 or 6 points clear of whoever. . . 1 Like |

nitlad: Exactly. I do not see many people giving Sunderland big ups. They were really up for it. One criticsm I have for the way we played was very much highlighted by Ruud Gullit on Sky Sports. We had Hazard and Willian tucked in the middle throughout the game; so much that it enabled Sunderland to have six players on the back line every time we attacked. If JM instructed Hazard and Willian to stay out wide for a 15-minute spell, with Azpi and Ivanovic overlapping, it would have drawn their defenders out wide and could have broken their concentration. 2 Likes |

nateevs: Exactly. I do not see many people giving Sunderland big ups. They were really up for it. JM: Defending a lot and well is not a crime, it is a quality - and they did it well. It's no news that our 'wingers' look to come in-field (comfort zone for Sunderland's set-up) at every oppurtunity. The only ninja that hugs the line a tad more - Schürrle - came on late. Having said that, I think we just generally had an off day! |

Games like thís, Felipe Luis should be brought on at left back to use the width, while Schurrle should be brought on to hug the right wing. 2 Likes |

nitlad:. Our transition was quite slow. What I saw yesterday was a Sunderland team that were set up to remain as compact as ever and to force our play wide. When it turned out we've been forced out wide, we never had at our disposal the necessary width to push for a goal. I guess the only time our full-back was spotted in their box was when Ivanovic delivered a low drive that got saved. The triumvirate of Hazard, Oscar and Willian were all going direct yesterday, that unwittingly played into the hands of Poyet's tactics who had the middle of the park congested and a leg-breaker like Cattermole standing right in front of his team's back-line to break up play. I'm moved to ask, why would Jose trot out same players who've been involved in our last two games? That's roughly three games in seven days for those lads, it doesn't make for good reading. We stay unbeaten still. Costa misses spuds game, I hope that doesn't weigh us down in anyway. 1 Like |

What are your suggested line-ups for the game against Tottenham. Chances are Jose will still start Hazard despite his current form. I have seen Remy play wide, and it is just not his position. Willian should also take his time to cool off, and Schurrle should be given a chance to start, it could help improve his form. My suggested line-up. -------------REMY HAZARD/SALAH-OSCAR-SCHURRLE ------MIKEL/MATIC--CESC LUIS--CAHILL--ZOUMA--IVANOVIC- ------------COURTOIS------------- 1 Like |

I keep getting justified. Mangala is a technically inept brute who shouldn't be allowed near a football pitch. Some of these hot nite clubs are running out of decent bouncers, Eliaquim fits in nicely. 2 Likes |

Why the fück did Koeman bring on Yoshida and push Aldeweireld into the midfield? Suicide tactics. Lampard finishes the game off with a typical strike |

Koeman should have asked them to be patient. They kept a good defensive shape for over 60mins. They only needed to be patient and they would have picked holes in between Demichelis and Kompany. |

Their performance today woulda shown they were ready for top 4 challenge, but from what i saw today, these guys are gonna be pushed out of top 4 sooner than i thought. |
