Sunderland.. Pre match thread.

Recommended Posts

Can see us kicking off how we finished last season, even though we have lost Pearson the players will know its time to step up, plus with a new manager to impress everyone should be fired up.

This break between seasons has just flown by. Absolutely flown by I say.

 

Don't know what  to predict first game of the season but I feel there will be many corners.

:fc: this

However pessimistic prediction 2-0 to Sunderland

People need to stop whinging about Cambiasso and out centre midfield.

He left-get over it.

Trust the guys who actually got us to the prem and helped us survive here too. Long live the King (Andy)

2-0. Think they were the worst team in the Pl last year. Lens looks a good player but they haven't got much else of a goal threat. Breaking them down may be the problem as we found last season. Going for a 2-0 win for us.

0-3 we'll lose the midfield battle. We've also conceded far too many in friendlies, defence needs shoring up. Chilwell talented but don't like the idea of him being thrown in the deep end, Wasyl gives away too many cheap fouls.

 

We don't even know who will be playing in midfield yet so I don't see how we've lost the battle already.

 

There's no saying Chilwell is guaranteed to play either.

 

As for the goals we've conceded, they've been mainly screamers or daft penalties. I wouldn't be too worried about them.

If it wasn't for the manager change, they would have gone down. I actually haven't got a clue where there going to be this season, they had some decent players last season but for some reason they just don't perform.

Krammy and Okazaki up top with Mahrez in behind them. Albrighton and Schlupp on the wings with Kante and King in the centre. Huth, Was and Wes at the back with Kasper taking the captains armband.

I cant make my mind up on the formation. Ulloa had a good overall season scoring a few goals but i just cant find a place for him in the starting 11.

 

Schemeichel

 

 

Wasyl        Huth       Morgan

 

Albrighton                                   Schluup

 

King              Drinky

 

Mahrez

 

Vardy            Okazaki

 

For me Vardy must start. He is an absolute menace and for me is our number 1 striker. I believe Kramaric could easily take that position as number 1 though if he plays. Okazaki could have a start similar to Ulloa though. Nugent has had a good pre season aswel so surely he is in for a shout. Could Kram play behind the 2 strikers in place of Mahrez. Too many decisions to make. My head hurts now.

Swap okazaki for Kramaric and Morgan for chillwell then that would be my line-up! Okazaki will be great as a sub to start with.

Why on earth are people selecting okazaki and kramaric ahead of vardy and ulloa?

 

 

Kramaric has looked out of his depth everytime he has played...and okazaki is being selected based on what? His transfer fee evidently.

 

 

 

You play your best players, and until kram and okazaki prove otherwise, vardy and ulloa is our best partnership.

sunderland will win 2-2

They'll never beat the mighty Leicesterlona!

Apart from vardy can't hit a cows arse with a banjo.quite scary how many wouldn't pick ulloa. Best finisher,best in the air and awesome at defending corners.keamaric has none of these from what I saw last season and Ialthough I like vardy but take away the running and he has very little else.he won't last long under claiudio

Oh god you're one of those twats.

 

Put a sock in it.

Personally, I don't see us going with 3 at the back until Morgan is back. He needs to rest, it's ludicrous that he's not stopped playing all summer and I really would give him a rest for a couple of weeks to avoid fatigue. 

 

Can see Ranieri going with:

 

Schmeichel

 

Albrighton  Huth  Wasilewski  Chilwell/Fuchs

 

Mahrez  King  Drinkwater  Schlupp

 

Vardy  Ulloa

Vardy and Okazaki up front for this one.  Their pace will cause problems for Sunderland.  Kram or Mahrez in the hole.  Ulloa and Nugent on the bench give good options as the game progresses.
