Just watched MOTD, never again - discussion after the match was almost exclusively about Southampton, apart from a begrudged mention of the Sunderland goal. I'm sticking with Sky from now on.

Altidore a poor heskey wickham not even sunday league standard and wtf paulo sees in ji I do not know absolute pure garbage. we need fletcher back soon or we will struggle big style. sort it paulo

F**k off
Altidore was isolated and still did well
Agree0
Disagree0
Really? I agree we want Fletcher back once he's ready but that's about all I can agree with!
Agree0
Disagree0
What would fletcher have done any different up front on his own the guy has no pace can't hold the ball up and his link up play is sh**e good thing about fletcher is him knowing where the goal is. altidore has now played 2 games in the hardest league in Europe what were you expecting 2 hat tricks give him the service and i'm sure he will score goals. as for ji he played well yesterday he maybe should have done better with his chance but his ball through to altidore was top drawer give him the games and he will come good.
Agree0
Disagree0
One thing about fletcher could do which altidore isn't doing at the moment. Is to get the majority of his shots on target.

watched the game today, very surprised cabral didn't start, nevertheless I would have taken a point today, oshea, diakite, giaccka played well, vaughan actually played with his brain when he came on. can't wait for fletch getting back, onwards and upwards. tk73

Today's game just goes to show that our midfield isn't good enough. Sess was rubbish as was Ji don't know what people see in Ji too lightweight and just not good enough. We need to get rid of Sess, Ji, Gardner. If we sign ki then god help us. I think we should go all out and get Milner he's just what we need in midfield

A very angry sunderland supporter after that utter shambles will somebody let di canio know that playing Gardner cm is affectively like playing with 10 men I thought I could see snail mark's on the pitch at one point. Gripe no2 I know sess was poor in the first half but what has ji shown us (man city goal apart) that he can play as 1 a central striker 2 a no 10 or man in the hole or 3 a left midfielder/winger because I can tell you all right know that he ain't any good in any of them position's and won't make it here at sunderland this league is far to fast and physical for him gripe 3 at this point were leading in the game but heavily being over run in the midfield you look to your bench and see cabal (if not fit shouldn't be on the bench) or Vaughan there who do you pick the combative one with good stamina or the slow and weak one with a nice 5-10 yard pass (I will not explain which is which) have a guess which one our tactical genius choose's gripe 4 hope we haven't another manager who because he's spent a substantial fee on a striker will play him regardless how poor he is performing I hope I'm wrong but I know it's just 2 competitive game's but I am a little worried and disappointed with the commitment in front of goal from altidore for the size of him seem's very reluctant to challenge for 1 header's and 2 get himself into the box and on the end of crosses seem's to hold back and not get himself in the thick of it risking a knock but ultimately getting himself a goal and finally di canio take's off the only player comfortable in possession of the ball and weaken's our midfield in the process a lot of very perplexing decision's from him to day I would have been happy with a point before hand and a positive performance but it was back to the dark time's of last season today I'm afraid to say. Sorry if it seem's to have gone on abit but I had to get it out

Nothing like last season. Dominated the whole 90 minutes against Fulham. Barely managed that for 9 minutes against any team. May not have dominated midfield today but how many teams in the whole league will manage that let alone come away with any points. On top of that we have a new team that are gelling. Lastly- 2 games in. Just 2. Signings still to be made and our best striker back shortly. So take your negativity where it is more appropriate- the mags page for example. I have already seen vast improvements. Di Canio just needs time.
Agree0
Disagree0
You wasted a lot of your time writing that rubbish. Your entitled to your opinion that's what debating football is all about but I don't agree with you. We are in a great place on and off the pitch. It takes time and I believe with patience dicanio and short will bring us great times the best the club have had since the end of world war 2. I believe, you should too just have a little patience as gary barlow says.

Season ticket holder for years ant can't agree with first poster more. Sort it paulo. Ji is garbage
Agree0

Yeah you've gone on a bit, ok, Gardner, and Vauhan, have both probably had their days in midfield, Sess also not at the races. But can't see your critisism of Altidore. With Ji I thought he did ok, won a lot of headers, looking stronger as the game went on. All about opinions I guess.
Agree0

To original post. PDC needs time - but you are right. Today we were absolute PANTS!
Agree0

Some people just see then selves more as customers than a supporter, have some faith in paolo we are going to have a good season
Agree0
Disagree0
My opinion oshea gives away too many stupid free kicks and is not good enough, gardner is poor apart from his shot and penalties, vaughan too slow and doesn't like passing forwards, larsson good crossing but is slow and getting worse, ji is getting a little better, wickham looked ok when he came on and the persons slating altidore the lad was isolated again, sess is off after that awful 1st half and good riddance, good news cabral will start next game for gardner and hopefully bradley will come in to partner him and get a left back but colback does decent a left back, we were poor yesterday but a point at southampton is a good result but still think osvaldo should of been sent off for a 2nd yellow and that was just before their goal

Saints fan here. Good game today, your lads gave it a proper hard graft and showed real quality. Don't listen to the doom-gloomers, your team will be more then safe from relegation this season. Good luck with the rest of the season and see you in a few months for round two.

1-1 is probably a fair result.
According to Cammy our defense was solid today which is a positive. Off the mark on the points tally. A good point away from home. Who do we have next in the league?

Okay we need to do what Southampton have done now, get 2 or 3 world class players
a defender, a playmaker and possibly another forward
But we need to balance the books out, sell Sessegnon, sell Larsson and sell Ji, which is a good 13m-14m plus the 12m from Migs and Elmo
Believable0

Larsson was our top player today, why sell him?tk73

Larsson was our top player? were you watching the same game as me he was woeful again! diakite was my best player and celustka had a good game again, altidore grafted but is isolated

Even if he did have a good game, that's one every blue moon
We need consistency

Westwood 9 celutska 8 oshea 5 diakite 8 colback 7 giach 8 gardner 3 larsson 4 johnson 6 sess 2 altidore 7, subs ji 6 wickham 7 vaughan 6, that is the way I see it and in my eyes the poor rated players need to go 5 and under

Disappointing to concede so late but I would have taken 1-1 before the game. Conceded from 2 headers already - something certainly to work on. I didn't get to the game but from what I'm hearing another decent performance.}

Ed
Someone asked you if these Michael Bradley rumours are true, you replied no, then I went on to say that they were, after this you said "no one would pay 6m for Bardsley"
I was confused, asked you what you were on about
Then the whole thing was taken off, were you embarrassed that you mixed Bardsley and Bradley up or is my IPhone playing up
Believable0
Unbelievable0
{Ed024's Note - I cocked up the post thread by misreading Bradley for Bardsley - to the point that it made no sense. Completely my fault but easier to delete the thread than to unpick. I'm blaming the beer from last night !!!!! I am sure your iphone is not faulty....but i am !!}
Ed cock up I'm afraid. Read Bradley as Bardsley!! Your phone isn't faulty, but I am. Easier to delete than to try an upick the thread as after I made my mistake it made no sense. }

anyone who takes notice of what lawrenson says are about as boring as him. the guy is a number 1 k**b, when him and his sidekicks were on motd I used to turn the volume off. can't disagree they were good players the lot of them but what have any of them achieved as managers to criticise people sweet f. a. take what he says with a pinch of salt t****r

Dan Walker: is this No ketchup, mayonnaise, ice etc true
Fletcher:Well, we didn't use our mobile phones before he came on but people always take things WAY out of proportion,. ……………………It's always good to have an enthusiastic manager, coz it makes the players up for it too
Random Guy:The no ketchup and ice etc is a big no no for me (completely ignoring what fletcher just said)
Lawrencen: they will get relegated, PDC will get sacked (he says all of this before the transfer window has closed)
What a tit !

So much for the Sunderland 'Banter' page.
No Banter is allowed on this page, unless it is Sunderland fans only.
