Get the thread in early after a good transfer window, will Mason Holgate start the game and will Taylor Harwood - Bellis play any part.
We now know the squad for the next 4 months and it looks strong, good striking options, strong centre of the midfield, good options on the flanks and more importantly a strong centre of defence.
In goal if people can get past last season and a couple of mistakes in pre season, then they might just notice we have a decent keeper in the making .
Big question now is Sulemana, he could really make us a massive threat |  |

I'm 50/50 on our manager but if his hill to die own so to speak is Gavin Bazunu then he'll be gone before Christmas, the lad isn't good enough. |  |

We are so predictable and there is no movement or penetration
Sunderland are so much more direct
Basunu has been awful and someone tell me why Mara is starting |
Bazunu was not at fault for either goal. It’s the shape of the team and defending that was at fault. We have created a few chances and should have had a penalty but recruitment they attack they look like scoring. Sunderland have also sussed us out by getting 10 players behind the ball when we have it then hitting us on the break.
That hoof up ball from there keeper leading to a 1 on 1 again is schoolboy stuff which RM needs to sort.
3 nil. Game over. Holgate shite. |  |

How many times is Bazunu going to be beaten from distance. Shocking keeping. |  | | |

Does Baz in goal get an assist bonus every time he palms a shot towards the on rushing forward.
Stuart Armstrong and KWP putting the effort in. Everyone else is strollling about |
Sometimes He just doesn't save shots at All so this cant Happen. Will be Hard to get Promotion with a shit GK. And with RM obviously Not knowing what to Do with a good squad. That line up would be laughable if it wasn't that sad. | | | |

Bazunu has been dreadful. He should have saved two if not three of the goals
Holgate is shocking
How many subs are we allowed to make?
There’s only Stuey, KWP and possibly Janny B who deserve to stay on |  | | |

A manager that can make a poor defence even worse is never going to get a favourable vote from me. Shambolic. |  |

We have had 1 shot on target.
They have had 5.
If you shoot then maybe you get a deflection. They did.
If you shoot then maybe the goalie fûcks up. They and he did.
But still we’ve had 59% possession. |  |

It was the questions we had wrong. |

What a fvckin abortion of a performance from Baz, the defence in general and a couple of other players, just strolling around thinking they'd win easily.
Massive HT bollocking required
3 changes at the start of the 2nd half.
More direct please and more urgency. |  |

My optimism is waning, it’s probably impossible to get promoted with Bazanu in goal, he’s the worst keeper I’ve ever seen at this level |  |
| |
| Sunderland Game Matchday Thread on 13:24 - Sep 2 with 1383 views | grumpy |
Baz just doesn't seem to have the authority to organize his defence and he is no shot stopper that's for sure. What worries me is that Martin thinks hes the answer. |  | | |

I think a decent keeper saves all 3. He has also headed the ball straight to their player and palmed a free kick straight to their forward. | |

Manning and KWP are all over the place.
The 2 wingers have a free run and loads of space.
The closing down is half hearted.
Like last season, too many think they are better than what they are.
Truly embarrassing.
But we can blame the deflection and the non penalty (whilst saying how shit VAR is) | |

This. Sorry but the buck stops with RM. The shape of the team is all wrong and the way we have been carved open time and time again is shocking. How a team can leave its self so wide open is astonishing.
Mara Smallbone Holgate Bazunu off. | |

Let’s not forget this is against a team that seriously struggled to beat Rotherham | | | |
| Sunderland Game Matchday Thread on 13:29 - Sep 2 with 1311 views | Butty101 |
The lineup has a touch of Selles about it. Why not start Charles and Fraser ? Why starter
Mara? | |

Adams hattrik second half ..? To save us .
Adam Armstrong to drop back a bit this half collect the ball and run at them ...at the other end they have way too much room and time to shoot cross or whatever. .
Very poor . Passing around till we lose it they get it run at us and hit it.
Not good enough | |

So glad that RM wanted to bring in Manning and Downes, they have both been so great for us....  | | | |
| Sunderland Game Matchday Thread on 13:31 - Sep 2 with 1265 views | SFC_Referee |
He’s gotta be bringing on both Fraser and Adams now at halftime for Mara and Edozie, as neither have created much, Mara messed up for their first goal and Edozie had a chance to get us back in this game at 2-1 yet hit it wide!
As unless those two come on during the break then I’m not too confident about this second half… |  |

God knows what Taylor Harwood-Bellis must be thinking sat on the bench. Sorry to say Bazunu is a total liability even at this level and we have nothing else in the locker that's much of an improvemenr. What is Mara doing on the pitch? Disappointed to see Charles not in the starting XI.
This is the second half decent team we have played so far this season and we have conceded 7 goals in one and a half matches. Ouch! |  |
