Ends up being Poch don’t even think Gallagher goes for good or for bad. The back 5 have let us down but still will be worth over £100m easily.

And whether the players stir up in the background for a move.
Unlike our rivals, our squad is made up of internationals.
This break, we have Xavi, VdV, Romero, Porro, Solanke, Spence, Sarr, Danso, Dragusin, Bergvall, RKM, Tel and Gray away.
If Tudor comes back, or gets replaced, the break doesn't help much. Nobody will be around to benefit from more time/training.
WHU have Bowen, Diouf, Hermansen, Soucek, Fernandes, Mavropanos, Lamadrid?, - 6 players, some not starters, Vs 13 away. And they're settled and playing as well as they can. We need massive amounts of work.
I'm actually a bit pissed some of our internationals didn't decline the "opportunity" tbh.
I saw in the news yesterday a bunch of United players withdrew "due to injury"
Been doing that for nearly 40 years at United.
We send them away with a blessing, sometimes to get injured and never play again.
Done this a few times now, not even being overly biased towards us , have The Title going down to the last game of the season, and Us needing a win against Everton to stay up.
Don't do it to yourself mate. If this lot can't deliver at home when they have a parade of fans and a 6 point fixture against Forest who were in the shit as bad as us, then the chances of them getting anything from Sunderland at their place is next to nothing. They're plainly not up for it.
Much as he's a self serving bellend, Sherwood is on the money with his "plan to stay up"
Simplify it.
Stop fucking around.

The last game, we could have had that.
The next game we could add Kudus into the mix.
But nah, fuck it, let's have a back 3 that changes to a 4, no one who can pass straight, etc etc. then change it after conceding despite being on top anyway.
Put everyone in their best position, use your subs properly and do it to maintain fitness over 90 minutes even when it's going well. Keep the players happy and results will come.
That's all we need and all we can do now.
But no. Let's chop, change, over complicate, confuse ourselves and just make endless self inflicted mistakes as a result.

Had Forest and Leeds 39 pts, us and West Ham 37 and thats hoping we get a modest new manager bounce this time. Had us as beating Leeds with a few draws.
I had west ham beating Gooners!
We couldn't beat an egg with a fucking blender.
6 Woolwich withdrawn too...hopefully all Sunderland's 13 internationals get worn out
I couldn't get us above 35 points. I can't see where the next win is coming from at the moment.
As you say, hopefully there is at least some kind of small new manager bounce this time, I think it's all we can hope for.
They could all get injured and still beat us.6 Woolwich withdrawn too...hopefully all Sunderland's 13 internationals get worn out
Yeah we've got a whole summer of superstars I've never heard of filling our stadium and coffers!Uncharted territory
No club as big as spurs has ever been relegated. Newcastle, villa, ham, Leeds..all big clubs but financially we operate in a different dimension to what they had when relegated.
So it's really quite bizarre and unknowable what will happen to us next season in championship
If I had to give an educated guess, I'd probably say it would more closely mirror Newcastles championship season in 2016
Sold off a handful of their big names like sissoko to us
But kept alot of their players and Still signed a few new players .
Straight back up well clear of playoffs
Perhaps we can arrange with the Football League to play our games when we can't get pop acts, boxing, rugby and NFL to fill it?
There is no steel in that midfield.
We’d need to bin off Lange in order to get our recruitment right.
he gets absolute pelters here from people who refuse to credit what he managed after taking over from AVBs fucking fiasco half season.
kept it simple
selected the best players available
showed more tactical nous than I thought he had
won a really good amount of pts
over 38 matches wouldve been 72.5 not shabby at all
I'd be happy with him, ditto H, and using Ben Davies as assistant in either case
I would take relegation in a heartbeat if it meant immediately getting new owners. We all know that we'll never have long term success with ENIC in charge, so I'd much rather take the hit and embarrassment in the short term if it meant the possibility of long term success.
Sorry for Igors loss of course but if we'd kept him see maybe one point and inevitable relegation
If we were guaranteed to come straight back up, then a season in Champo would be palatable, fun even. but of course it never is. We almost blew it in 78

Would be a difficult appointment, someone who can get us out of Champo* and in Euro positions in PL.
If Ipswich fail to get promotion I'd go for McKenna. He could leave them with his head held high, got a double promotion and leaving them a division higher and then some.
* out of champo in the right direction!
We'll also keep Maddison/Deki because no club that can afford their wages is going to take a chance on them following serious injuries.
