Good team effort Hladky gets MoM for me, understandably brry nervous early doors. Was brave with decision making and saved us at the end. Only negative was Freddie, was he wearing lead boots , so sluggish and not like him

I watched the full game back on Sunderland's YouTube channel. Apologies for reporting on here when not at the game.

Just going to mention the things that haven't been highlighted yet. Sam Morsy had to take a yellow card for the team due to a bad pass by Janoi Donacien. If he hadn't taken the other player out, we were in trouble. No way is Sam to blame for this yellow. Someone had commented elsewhere on the site that Sam had started picking up yellow cards. He simply had to take the yellow, and wasn't happy with Janoi at all.

No issues with anything else we did, except to know about and prepare for much longer games than 90 mins through our training regime - it was a superb performance by all players including substitutes. No more cramp in added time, please.

Hutchinson and Ladapo were both justified in going for goal, Ladapo's shot was about a foot over the bar, Hutchinson's was blocked. I don't think they had any sight of players waiting for the ball to be squared, just going for goal. One misplaced pass from Hutchinson straight out of play, that was it.

Just a great team performance and well done to all. We did a job on Sunderland. Great quote about their players' 'floppy hair' by whoever said it. Walk of shame by their player went sent off was great, too.
