markjazzbassist Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 They are 2 points down in the relegation zone. They will be going for the jugular. Luckily their only quality player is Sigurdsson. Our players have mailed it in as the 7th finish is all but assured now. Koeman will have a job getting them motivated for this one. Hopefully Schniederlin is fit, if not slot Barry in. Go 433 and bench Barkley.

Aidan Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 Can see us finishing the season on a low after these past couple of games. Probably a draw, maybe a loss. The players have nothing left to play for and generally won't be interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players have nothing left to play for and generally won't be interested. They'd be absolutely nuts to be treating the last few games in this way - a lot of them will be playing for their futures at this football club. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 They'd be absolutely nuts to be treating the last few games in this way - a lot of them will be playing for their futures at this football club. I think they'll already know. I can't help but feel that with us not moving away from 7th, up or down, some edge will go. That's human nature. Ron should play some U23's just to see how they get on.

Aidan Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 Good point, theres nothing to lose. Would like to see a few, Dowell, Kenny, Sambou, heck throw in the u23 keeper too, no idea of his name or quality but he can't do much worse than our current two.

Vranny Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 It sounds bad, but we need to beat Swansea to keep them in the shit, so we can take Sigurdsson off them (not to mention it'll help keep Hull up and increase our chances of getting rid of Niasse). markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) If we play like we did against West ham I'd start the u23s, and send the first team on holiday. Edited May 4, 2017 by pete0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Don't be surprised if we roll over and get our bellys tickled tomorrow. These are fighting for survival and I get the feeling our minds are on the summer and beyond already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 1-3 brace from Rom and Robles with a scissor kick in the 89th that will send Matt into orbit ? They've got the bit between their teeth with being in a relegation scrap so it won't be a walk in the park but given the way we played against West Ham and got outclassed by Chelsea I can see us putting in a decent performance today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, saw that and exactly my thoughts. The Swansea team talk will be very easy. Win the game boys and you are out of the relegation zone.

Aidan Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Defoe is a free transfer. In his contract, if Sunderland are relegated. He's getting on but think he'd go to WHU. Wouldn't mind him as a rotating player here though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
