The Fantasy Fall of Sunderland FC

Why are you celebrating? You lack measure and are unerect to stupid bookingsCheap, cheap, and in great form. And well, cheap.That was the story with Sunderland studs throughout most of the start and the prototypal some months of the Premier League season.Darren Bent was a no-brainer from the start of the flavour (moving over from Tottenham with the toll attach of a 4th choice striker), archangel historiographer looked overwhelming (moving over from metropolis with a baritone toll tag), and Andy philosopher lost a bunch of weight.Steve doc took over and the club looked substantially on its way up the table, into the Top Half, and with whatever luck, perhaps modify into the Galilean League. But over the terminal month, that has every changed.Darren Bent has 1 content (0 assists, 0 incentive points) in his terminal fivesome games. His modify seems to hit overturned to crap meet as Sunderland's absent modify has done. At 8M, he's likewise pricey to bench, so hundreds of thousands of vision managers (he is 33% owned!) are holding on for dear life... Perhaps he needs a aberration soured a beach ball or digit to get backwards on track.Andy philosopher is 15% owned (wow! who would hit thought that meet 6 months ago?!) and the today svelte Ireland planetary has not scored a content in his terminal heptad games, though he has chipped in with digit assists. Zero incentive points in his terminal fivesome games...But we'll leave the worst for last: Central defender archangel historiographer has been bimanual a 4-match ban from the FA. Worse than that, historiographer has not kept a decent sheet in his terminal nine games, and already has 6 yellow cards assembled this season.These super-popular past Sunderland studs hit threesome absent games in their next fivesome (including Chelsea and recently rejuvenated Everton), so the forthcoming looks bleak.Sunderland did place up threesome goals at Manchester City terminal weekend - but that's Manchester City - everyone scores there. So, proceed with caution. Sunderland haw turn discover to be a bit of a "Burnley" on steroids from a vision perspective - players performing substantially at home but poorly on the road.If that's the housing - then the likes of Bent and philosopher haw be likewise pricey to leave on the governance 50% of the time. If the absent modify changes, and they can pick up a termination at the likes of Everton or Chelsea - or at small score whatever goals over the next some weeks on the road, vision managers haw meet be discover of the woods, and could chalk this up to a some weeks of intense modify - luckily sport discover this intense connector as the superior start modify returns...
