Won't be with you tonight. Sat in departure lounge and in the air for the duration.
COYC, 3 more points towards the target.

NRC · Post by **NRC** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:03 pm

haven't been on here for a couple of days - head down in work, but I've told my boss that it's Friday afternoon (3pm kick-off locally) and I'm out.... so here I am

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:04 pm

Very strong team. THB, Benson and Brownhill back in.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:05 pm

Great line up.
Welcome back, THB.

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:06 pm

Great stuff. A shame for Ekdal though.

JohnDearyMe · Post by **JohnDearyMe** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:07 pm

Who is missing from the list above then? Rodriguez, Churlinov, Foster & Taylor are all that spring to mind. Losing track of the wider squad

Nonayforever · Post by **Nonayforever** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:07 pm

What a team

Carwin261 · Post by **Carwin261** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:07 pm

What a fantastic line up,are we playing 4-2-4 ?

I'm here in the Philippines keeping awake for our 3.00am PT kick off.

My wife is also staying awake to make sure that I stay awake for the game.

Now that's real love

Thats right Doug.
He's done nothing wrong, has he.
Im still scratching my head at our CBs. After losing Ben and Tarks, admit i was worried at the start of the season.
What the hell do i know.

Yes or some version of it. I think Barnes will play deep and Tella off him. Similar to Norwich away.

I'll root around for a stream nearer KO, if you want one?

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:13 pm

Our strongest possible team, sad about Churlinov still not making the bench, I believe in this kid but he's just not getting any opportunity.

ecc · Post by **ecc** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:14 pm

Sorry for the question but what is Jay's injury?

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:18 pm

Love the way VK "manages" the starting eleven. Its a challenge with so many vying to start

Same here just woke up in hotel room with my partner in Cebu as we have been to a church conference so hoping to watch it on my phone. UTC

Seems years since we last played a League game. Will be watching hoping we can get back to winning ways after City.

Indeed.
Though i do feel for JBG, was doing really well, not going to criticise VK selections though.

Great to see THB and Benny back.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:24 pm

Great for us to be at full strength tonight, and that XI should be more than enough to take care of an average Sunderland outfit who really have little to play for now.

Croydon Claret · Post by **Croydon Claret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:24 pm

Don't think we have a best 11 anymore it's more like a best 15

Have I been waiting for this eleven players to start.......Be afraid Sunderland.

Hoping for a big win and big performance tonight. Won’t get to see it as will be enroute to Berlin.

Evening all, strong lineup should be a straightforward win.COYC

Key member of the team. He could just as easily be in the next game.

Agree. Team selection can be discussed for hours with your mates. Loads of options. This is one if the main topics that I really missed for the previous 3 seasons.

Benson

the best player in the Championship, in my honest opinion.

And Lyle Foster, stuck somewhere on his way back from international duties.

Scratch that, now seen he was in first list.

Bit worried about my 2-0 forecast having seen the team

Clarets4me · Post by **Clarets4me** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 7:56 pm

The thought of players of the calibre of Foster, Taylor, Rodrigues, Churlinov, Bastien etc either being injured/rested ... and we still don't look any weaker is astonishing to some of us who go back to the mid-late 1980's ...

We need to drive forward from the off and get all over them.

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:16 pm

Not had a fast start yet, and some slightly dodgy passing going on at the back between Muric and the defence, need a bit of a wake up.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:17 pm

No penetration yet. Not looking for any deadly passes or longer balls, just staying very safe.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:18 pm

Roberts looking up for it tonight.
