No ratings from me this time Leon

It was a 4:30 a.m. kick off here. Meant to watch at 7:30 but my streaming service was being dicky. By the time I'd read everyone's comments on the match thread, I opted out of a full watch and just watched the 6 minute highlights.

Rodon was yellow carded for a non-foul given from an inept referee, yes his second yellow card was reckless, but it's that justification for more punishment from Farke? "Sorry Joe, you made one poor challenge, so you are dropped for today's game, even it means we sacrifice points" I disag...

“Rodon temptation? Yes, but he was involved in a few scenes which were not perfect. His red card could have been better at Hull.” No idea what he’s on about here. He's saying that he dropped Rodon because of his red card. He called him out after the Hull game, saying he shouldn't have mad that chal...

Is he still on Tottenham's books?

Get my monies worth

Define getting your money's worth. Unless the Wednesday fans are there to watch Jack Clarke.

30 minutes there's fans leaving

Clarke again with the penalty

Nice goal by Jack Clarke. He's looking really good.

Sunderland 2-up on the Wendies after 8 minutes.

"I know how to manage the heat"

"I know how to use my subs"

The players tired and he didn't use his bloody subs

It's 3 in a week again so I expect there will be some rotation. Thinking we'll play our strongest side on Saturday then make a couple fo changes at home to QPR. We have some nice options now. Gray/Kamara in midfield. 4 fit centerbacks. Shackleton to rotate with Ayling or Byram. Jaidon Anthony to pos...

Unless the Farke spell wafts over him too and he starts playing football...but can't see him ousting Byrum.

Firpo will be on the bench when he comes back

Interesting that Hjelde played most of the game at LB. Only switched to CB when Mullen went off.

Probably indicates that Farke still sees him predominantly as a LB

2-0

Totally deserved. We've been far the better team

Charlie Allen slots home.

Should be in front at half time

And Hjelde off the line

Was Marsch really easy on them in training. Any actual evidence of that. Seems bizarre in elite sport. You simply cannot be sub standard on fitness. You’re giving up a percentage chance of winning straight away. I doubt that Marsch was easy in training. He liked to play the high press. That takes h...

It's also important to note what the catalyst was for this change .... Luke Ayling. It was only because of his experience with quality training programs at Leeds that he could identify the problem. He also has the courage to stand up and say it. So for all those who say Ayling, Coops, Dallas - even...

Charlie Crew is the captain. He's only 17

Klaesson, Coleman, Monteiro, Mullen, Hjelde, Crew, Gyabi, Bate, McGurk, Allen, Douglas Subs: Christy, Thomas, Carole, Ferguson, Debayo Bate and Gyabi have become regulars here Hjelde and Klaesson added into the mix With a game less than 48 hours away, obviously Farke doesn't want to risk many. But ...
