      Isn't impressive? It's diabolical, the players should hang their heads in shame over that 1-0, it should have been an easy and guaranteed result.

      It simply wasn't good enough, games this easy don't come along very often and you have to bury the opposition if you want to be taken seriously.

      Still, at least the players have a long journey back to Swansea to think about what they've done.
      Z(u, w) = Z0(w)[1-exp{-b(w)u}]

        The Black Cats were stunned when it was announced the Ghana ace had flown to the United Arab Emirates to sign for Al Ain.

        Bruce has brought the likes of Nicklas Bendtner in on loan from Arsenal to provide the goals however he looks to have closed the door on the return of £13million man Gyan.

        "You can't leave this club and want to leave and want to go the United Arab Emirates and we're going to welcome you back with open arms, I can't see it but you never know."

        "I had a conversation with him 48 hours ago and he assured me, he shook my hand, that he wanted to be a Sunderland player, wanted to see the season, wanted to go the African Nations again in good form, wanted to work on his fitness levels then all of a sudden within a few hours it seems things have changed," Bruce told Sky Sports following their 2-1 defeat against Chelsea.

        "Other people can make their own conclusions. You leave the biggest and best league in the world to go play in the United Arab Emirates.

        "I'm sorry but sometimes football, sometimes it's baffling to say the least. Very disappointed in the timing of it, the whole thing has left a bad taste if I'm being honest."

        Asked if the 25-year-old striker had a future at the Stadium of Light, he answered: "No I don't, I don't believe that, I don't believe he's got a future here, I don't think he can.

        "You can't leave this club and want to leave and want to go the United Arab Emirates and we're going to welcome you back with open arms, I can't see it but you never know."

        Fuck you , Gyan. This one hurts more than Bent's departure, because you are going to the fucking UAE. Nobody wants to live in the fucking northeast and that's not going to change, but Al Ain???? #@$%@@# :pissed: $#%$&

        At what point do you chalk this up as Bruce's fault and send him off? There is no damn continuity within the organization and not a one striker capable of leading Sunderland up the table this year. With Bent, Gyan, and Welbeck last year they were 6th in december. Do footballers really get so butthurt over having to share the lime light? Is it really that much more dramatic when everyone is pumping ideas into your head as to where you should/could be playing? Is it so hard to stick with a team that has proven it can win (sometimes) while they're paying you damn well? Oh and Connor Wickham, fuck you for not scoring any goals yet.

          All the rumours while the transfer window was open... so many teams were interested in him and we stood by his side. He was our guy... Well if we sold him off then, at least we'd have Peter Crouch. At this point I think my MLS team, Sporting KC could give Sunderland a run for their money.

            That Suarez empty net at the end of the game was better than a penalty.

                  Columbus is falling apart. 10 goals in 2 games allowed.

                    I'm watching Valencia stroll about acting like they are fated to get a goal. So dominant but no urgency.

                    On a sidenote this Sky Sports Match Choice thing is phenomenal.

Only started watching in the last 20 minutes of the match and wasn't very impressed by the side prior to this - they went forward but without real ideas or intent. 1-0 over Swansea isn't real impressive, but a win is a win.

                              3-0 by Citeh over Wigan... so much for my thoughts that Aguero could struggle with the physicality of the Prem, as he scored a hattrick...

                                Good opening 15 minutes from Man City. No sign of nerves.
