    A bit early for my benefit!

    Goals for 13. Goals against 25. GD -12.

    Last game: Sunday 1st November 2015 - Everton v Sunderland - Lost 6 - 2. (Defoe, Fletcher)
    Team
    01 Pantilimon. 22 Coates. 05 Brown. 02 Jones. 24 Yedlin (Larsson 64).
    06 Cattermole (Rodwell 38 Yellow card). 21 M'Vila. 03 van Aanholt. 11 Johnson.

    Injury list, several players close to a return.

    J O'Shea Hamstring 7th Nov? F Borini Ankle/Foot 7th Nov?

    There is no doubt that Sunderland have been having a bad start to the Season, but with a new Manager in charge and a home crowd baying for success, this could prove to be a tougher game for us. The absence of Victor Wanayama through suspension may be critical, but I am sure Romeu will step up to the mark. Hopefully Jose will have recovered too, his Captains influence was badly missed in the second half of the Cherry game.

    Tbf, I think we've finally run out of things to talk about, so I'll stick this now. As if that will make any difference. Anyway, let's see.

    Seeing that Vic is suspended, Harry Reed should be on the bench for this game.

    Sunderland are a poor team in a bad form, which makes me very anxious. On paper, it should be a Saints win, but these are the matches that scare me the most.

    I'm hoping for another unacceptable performance.

    We are due a result there - we can't keep losing/drawing (I hope!)
    They were actually better than the 6-2 score line suggested last week though, and Allardyce teams are always a nightmare. Their injury issues will hopefully give us a chance, I think pelle mane tadic can tear Wes Brown a new hole. 1-3 to saints.

    I don't know why Saintdon is still the thread maker after that appalling loss.

    I voted we change him and save him for the Liverpool Cuo game.

    I'm scared of poor teams...and good teams...and average teams. Just about everyone really. :)

    When we constantly struggled in our previous incarnation I used to envy fans of Newcastle and West Ham (well, it was a long time ago) who were nicely safe and midtable. Now we could be that team and I'm still nervous because I'm afraid we won't finish near the top. I'm not alone.....am I? No satisfying some people.

    Will be difficult after wanyama was shot at dawn for unacceptable and idiotic behaviour.

    I would like to point out that you don't get any points in the Premier for moral victories.

    We are due a win at their place but can we please go in 0-0 at half time.

    Trap game. I fear we might score as few as three goals, and Sunderland as many as two.
