I’ve got a mate who’s a Sunderland fan. We were visiting him when they played West Brom away so I watched the game. I was impressed with how they played. They were passing it out from the back really well. Way better than we do. Having said that the WBA goal came from a defender dwelling on the ball and losing out.
Great free kick from Hignett. If modern day players are so much better how is it we’ve nobody playing for us at the moment capable of scoring free kicks like that ?
My view hasn’t really changed. Shelling out that sort of dosh on “ one for the future “ when we desperately needed championship standard players to go straight into the team was a mistake.
