It *was *a thoroughly excellent performance and a massive victory, but
let's face it.............Sunderland were abject rubbish. Are they just
crap, or did we make them look bad? Given their previous results, you have
to think it was the latter.
That was the first time I've seen us play this season............wow, what
a player Saiz is!
But my hero from that match was Liam Cooper...............apart from his
astonishing, match-changing goalline save, he was superb throughout. I
think he is showing excellent character to be playing so well after the
toll last season's events must have taken on his confidence.
