Shocked that any Albion fan wouldn't want to see Sunderland above Palace. Would you feel like this is Gus was not the Sunderland manager?

Haven't seen too much evidence of Gus's passing game yet. Seems to be hoof to Fletcher.


In fairness, there's a reason for that. Fletcher is by far Sunderland's most effective player and their hopes of staying up hinge on his ability to stay fit and score goals. If he does stay fit, he can score 12-13 goals which could be the difference between them staying in the Premier League and going down. The trouble is, he is injury prone and when he doesn't play, they don't really have any other goal threat. Jozy Altidore is a handful, but he is a non-goalscoring handful.

Sunderland really aren't very good.

At least palace had a bit of oomph about them, Sunderland can't actually pass the ball to each other.

everyone going nuts to make palace go bottom - it's simple....Sunderland will pick up a few draws at home, but Palace will lose every game - so sooner or later Palace will be bottom.
