Defensively, Sunderland are pretty sound but the forwards seemingly don't do the team justice. I am sure we can bang a few goals in soon though. The team hasn't really settled yet.

I would give it a few weeks yet. I thought after the international break the Sunderland players would gel and click. While other teams came out of the traps faster Sunderland will have to play catch up again.

A new look football team will never do very well to begin with. It wouldn't be Sunderland if we didn't play catch up come Christmas.

Sorry, but this season I have gone off Dick Advocaat. The results have been bad and the style of play is rubbish.

How long will it take before Dick Advocaat's new look Sunderland will become a force to be reckoned with? Time is ticking!

On Saturday I heard him say he may have to change his system and go on the defensive. That, to me, is a confession that his style of play is not going to work. I think the majority of people are still on Dick Advocaat's side but can't se this being the case at Christmas should Sunderland be in the bottom three.
