I felt sure about a number of things today, I was wrong about roughly the same number of things.

Sunderland are playing with the same sort of focus and determination with which Leicester avoided relegation last season.

4-1 to Swansea, who would have predicted that scoreline before the match?!

That's Sunderland surely staying up. I can't see them now not winning against one of Everton or Watford.
Will be interesting to see if Rafa takes charge of Newcastle next season. There'd be a lot of respect for him if he did, he could walk into pretty much most top flight jobs. |

Defoe again showing how valuable a reliable goalscorer is. Newcastle and Norwich don't have that, and they're both likely to go down.

No chance of him staying at Newcastle when their relegation is confirmed, his ego is far too huge to be classing himself as a Championship manager .

Harsh to say its his ego that would prevent him staying. The contract has a break in it if the club go down and his reputation makes him far better than Championship level. I dont think its any shame on him if he leave and I also dont think he would be the right man to take Newcastle back up anyway.

He does come across as wanting to only manage as high up as possible for him (which is not a bad thing per say, just that in this case, he would be leaving them in a bit of a mess). |

I would have so much more respect for him if he did stick with them, and did try to get them back up, but I doubt very much that he will do just that.

I didn't think he was leaving them in any mess, just doing what was already agreed. I think most top managers would wish to manage at the highest possible level, again I feel you are being quite harsh there. |
