What did Sunderland get out of it in 2011? Probably just the usual club link partnership that none of us are the wiser to what benefits Saints get.

Another heavy depressing defeat coming up against a team we always struggle against. Davies inbound from Everton. Great days!

Tbf its been three games...and was more tongue in cheek 😁

Get big Sam in. Would rather win ugly than suffer this shit all season. I haven't seen a beating like that since someone stuffed bananas down my trousers and set a Monkey loose.

Maybe its a ruse....and we aren't going to play like that against Spurs.

Bit optimistic...with us scoring an all...

Has he left yet? Really want him gone - then only left with a few other duds from the last few years.

If only Saints looked half as decent as Everton.....at this point in time.

They have spent a bit...again.

My optimism for Saints this year is like this Basketball after last night..

I doubt if he signs in the next 48 hours he will be in the team, he could only manage 45mins the other week for Wales, badly short of match fitness. SAINTS PLEASE BUY A MIDFIELDER!

Good Keeper - surprised ended up there.

with Spurs going for Bale they can't afford Ings tbh...unless Kane is off.

I see Grujic didn't go back to Germany and is now sat in Liverpool's reserves. Would be worth a punt imo even if on a loan then buy deal like Ings.

Win this Cup and now get into Europe! Kinda....some weird third rate competition like the League Cup is.

Adios Boufal and thanks for 'that' goal. Not needed anymore with Djenepo on the books as very similar players. Frees up a decent amount of wages and a bit extra kitty to get that CM in ...

If they were haggling over Hoj....then they can't afford Danny...

Fancy putting your head on upside down! ! ! Sorry had to get it out the system...

Its looking like 3 points dropped now tbh. Palace were terrible, they can't play like that for the season or they will be down there. And we lost to them....

Disagree, these players are the ones you want 1v1 with the last defender. They are not as effective trying to do their skillz with 2/3 players on them. Similar to Djenepo, was very ineffective when he came on. Need a creative no10 type, quick little 1/2s, incisive flicks and through balls sitting in the gaps to break these teams down. Just my two cents, might be wrong but I ain't a footie manager

Basically same team we finished last season with and that done ok. Just felt the issue was creating chances and there was nothing on the bench to change things up too much. When teams are sitting that deep Djenpo and Long are pretty ineffective as they are not the most creative players.

only thing I can find comfort in is that with only one preseason friendly I am sure we will improve.

Palace celebrate like they won a cup....just as embarrassing as our performance unfortunately.

Long 😕

fucking keeper...he was so shit last season as well 😕
