Sunderland v Aston Villa Match Thread

[amfy]

My stream has Spanish commentary. I love the way our team sounds on this commentary. Even Barry Bannan sounds exotic!

[Tuscans]

Benteke and Gabby look a good partnership....Benteke is beasting it up front so far....good skills and power.

[Witton Warrior]

I hear we have a functional and relatively effective midfield - is this really Aston Villa?

[Stu]

We've looked the better team so far Stu, Sunderland looking dangerous on the break. Bennets gone off inured to be replaced by Lichaj after 10mins

Cheers. I suppose that is to be expected of this Sunderland team. They don't create much though, so lets hope we can get a goal soon.

What is it with these floated corners, whip it in pace FFS!!

[PeterWithesShin]

It's only after you've had a break from it that you realise what shit football Pube Head has his clubs playing.

[citizenDJ]

I swear we give away more stupid free kicks than any other team in the league.

I hate it when we're the better side but haven't scored. You just get that feeling.

Stephen Fletcher must use the same birth registrar as Obafemi Martins.

[paul_e]

bannan ireland and westwood are all showing for each other, so the man on the ball has options, makes the game simple.

Benteke is bossing their defense as well.

[Arsey]

How many corners have we had already and not even close.

Last time we looked dangerous from a corner was 2008.

I could be wrong but I think we scored from a corner this season.

[Pete3206]

We've had so many corners. Surely, Sunderland must score soon.

Albion.

[Summers]

Sunderland go down easily, tbh.

Stephen Ireland doing a passable impersonation of Paul Scholes with that tackle.
