ReplyDeleteKenwyne?
ReplyDeleteNeither. If Bent doesn't play, Sunderland will score only from a set piece or an own goal. Brum should still have a strong defence.

On the road? With Foster instead of Hart?
ReplyDeleteIf you're right that they'll only score from a set-piece, then I'm happier than ever to have Jordan Henderson in my team.
K. Jones left Sunderland for Stoke, F. Campbell looking like a bargain?
ReplyDeleteWelbeck now looking very good
