I was slightly bewildered that he even started. I was so certain he would go with Kelly and Delaney as the CB pairing last night.

Still can't believe we've gone in to the start of this season with just 7 defenders. We may end up playing Wickham as CB at this rate.




Might improve his goal scoring record

Bad news - Dann definitely misses tomorrows match and is probably out for the Everton game next Friday too. Should be back after the International break for the West Ham game.

Good news - Tomkins is fit and should partner Delaney in defence tomorrow.

guess we already know where the priority now lies in the January transfer window.

That bench isn't the best...

Really need another big game from Townsend. And no more ****ing injuries.

Shocking from Ledley, but on the plus side it might wake us up as we have played like we're half asleep so far.

HT 0-1 down.

trust us to make the worst team in the division look good.

Cabaye offers nothing IMO. would rather see Lee on.

Poor game. But typical to have one stupid mistake like that.

He's had no prorection from the ref at all in that first half but I will say we do look a better team without him in the starting XI.

We've barely been in second gear so far, it's been a lazy and lethargic performance.

just remembered that we gifted the winner to Defoe in the game at Selhurst last season. he must love playing against us.

2 quick goals. we go 2-0 down, Defoe yet again. but we hit back straight away with Ledley.

but we still look poor in this half. Maybe now we might start to play?

Defoe having a great game.

Ledley! Making up for his assist in their goal.

Everything is still so slow from us, there is no zip to our play at all.

Oh nice! Possibly could steal this.

What a difference to the team once Cabaye comes off.

Superb cross from Fryers. Was that his first touch?

Defensively we've looked dodgy this half, though, so this could still go either way.

Ledley striking back straight away when we went 2-down ends up being the turning point.

And I still don't think we played that well, we looked a bit lethargic today and still managed a great comeback to win.

I don't know but Sunderland's confidence must be at a low ebb right now if we can come back from 2-0 down against them, 3 straight wins and I am buzzing baby

I love Benteke! Fantastic result 😀

When I read the bbc stats and saw this I assumed the worst

"There has been a goal in the 80th minute or later in five of the six Premier League meetings between these sides, including four in the 90th minute."

For once it went our way 😆
