Finn balor Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Game is day after tommorow. Obviously they will be up for it but we need to keep the same team and same attitude. 0-2 Vic and Felli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee_in_LA Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Could be wrong, but isn't Sunderland a bogie team for us? Going to have to play with heart and consistency, especially away from home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avinalaff Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 We traditionally smash Sunderland. If Moyes doesn't bend Di Canio over the press box and give him the most manly 90 minutes he's ever had I'll be wanting to know why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droobie Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 We've got a chase on for a CL spot and all our remaining games are not easy. We haven't capitalised on the clubs we should be comfortably winning against; too many draws this season too. On paper, Sunderland is the lowest place team we get to play from now to the end of the season. As Marcopaulo says must win. We have must wins from here on if we want to be playing in Europe. I tip 2-1 with a Belgian brace: Mirallas and Fellaini to score! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee_in_LA Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Quite the opposite. We're their bogey team. In that case, I'll be quietly confident we get these 3 points and continue our push for the top 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcirony Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Like I said in the 'Run In' thread, this isn't going to be an easy game. However, If we play with the same passion as we did at the Emirates with a bit more guile we should win this one. They don't really have many strike options at the moment so our full backs are going to have to guard McLean and Johnson on the wings because that's where their goals are going to come from. 2-0 Everton.

Romey 1878 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Feeling quite apprehensive about this one. They'll be full of confidence, backed by their own fans who are sure to be full of beans themselves. Also, I'm sure they said during the Arsenal game we've only won 4 times away this season (only lost 4 times as well, mind). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 They'll be full of confidence, I'm hoping they'll be overconfident....bit carried away by the euphoria of the Newcastle game; with a bit of luck we'll bring them back down to earth.

Hafnia Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I'm hoping Osman is no where near the squad if i'm honest, the lad looked dead on his feet and needs a "get a week in the sunshine and a bit of swimming done". United have done that every now and then with the likes of Rooney and Ronaldo in the past. Ossie isn't a machine like your distins and Baines. Would like to see Barkley again.

Bailey Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I know Di Canio's Swindon team used to play some decent football so its important we get in their faces and stop them from playing, just like we did for the most part against Arsenal. If we take it easy, sit back and let them have the ball we will be in trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 They will be up for it from the off and the crowd will be too. An early goal will put paid to that but we need to compete and not put any silly challenges in.I think we will have too much quality for them just hope we take our chances and somebody has taught Vic to lift the ball over the goalie in a one on one we will be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps put Fellaini up front again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps put Fellaini up front again? Sounds like it might be like Soton away! They pressed high and we fell apart. However, Arsenal didnt give us acres of space and up until the last half hour we coped well enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Jags and Barkley out, Heitinga & Ossie in. Howard, Coleman, Baines, Distin, Heitinga, Gibson, Osman, Fellaini, Pienaar, Anichebe, Mirallas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeQuince Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Such a disappointing team today. I feel Barkley really earned his place this week. And Jelavic deserves a shot after Vic's showing on Tuesday. That, and Vic looked injured at the end there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 I think the starting line-up is fair enough, although if still arent winning and creating chances in the second half then Barkley should be introduced sooner rather than later. I just hope Osman or Pienaar is behind the striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
