Sunderland v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Thank goodness Sunderland are toothless up front.

We're making very hard work of this. I just wish we'd try and do something ourselves rather than play backs to the wall.

Whats so hard about playing a few short passes to people in a bit of space?

Story of this game.

[devilla]

Albi's done well so far, need to get the ball wide to him

[rjp]

This is nerve wracking to watch but I just fancy us to get one on the break, we're creating chances.

[Irish villain]

We haven't got motoring this season at all. It is just so patchy and bity from us. After such a great win at Arsenal we should have settled in.

[Fergal]

I know we are winning and Sunderland don't really look like scoring but we are hanging on against a team that is bottom of the league and have only scored 15 goals all season.

[lovejoy]

Off behind the sofa, see you at 4.55.

[Hampshire Villa]

Sunderland going hung ho now. Just stay steady lads!

I am dreading the upcoming home return against Arsenal

[Toronto Villa]

thank goodness Sunderland are as poor as us in completing moves and as good as us at wasting possession

[Tuscans]

Oh Marc what are you doing? SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!
