Really, really like that team.
I wonder how Bojan is feeling though?
Patient. Like Muniesa was last season

The whole Butland and Sorensen thing i find slightly baffling. Our league number 2 goalkeeper, as in, him on the bench is Sorensen. Our number 1 keeper is Begovic. Yet when it comes to cup games, Sorensen's still our number 2 goalkeeper, as in, him on the bench and from out of nowhere, Jack Butland, who is by definition our number 3 league goalkeeper is our number 1 cup keeper. Now that all makes Sorensen in actual fact our number 3 keeper, because he never plays, yet he's always number 2. Which means 2+2=number 3. Confusing as to why Butland is our cup number 1 yet league number 3, that's 1+3=what's going on there then? I know what you're thinking, it makes perfect sense I think Sorensen is going for the "Carlo Nash" award for footballers who don't actually play football. I just looked Carlo up on wiki and he has been a pro with us and now Norwich since 2008 and not played in a single game of football in those 6 years. It's a strange way to earn a living

I still think it is amazing how we make 6 changes and the team still looks as it does! Much more confident about tonight now Pity we lost Wingie though, he would have added even more spice to the line up. Although, given his age, he might have been on the bench tonight.

Strongish looking midfield five at Sunderland. Altidore up top though.

Adam played the 'deep' role in a two perfectly well last season when N'zonzi was suspended (Man U) and a couple of other games after that when N'Zonzi was injured/dropped.
This is not a new departure??????????????

This is not a new departure?????????????? Its not, but he had someone to do his running for him then, just hope N'Zonzi is up for it tonight.

As I said further up the thread Sheikhy ... in those games, Hughes brought in Walters to play in the role that Ireland will play tonight.
Walters dropped very deep and did a lot of water carrying for Charlie, which hasn't really been Ireland's game in the past has it?
This is a new departure.
Hopefully it'll work - not sure Hughes would try it in the Prem mind.

Midfield too open. High scoring defeat.

No doubt N'zonzi will get the blame.

N'Zonzi has apparently covered more ground than any Stoke player so far this season.
I am concerned about the absence of a bona fide little defensively-minded scurrier like Whelan in front of the defence though - much like the absence of Crouchy up top.
They're not glamorous but they arguably do stuff no-one else in the squad can do.

I know what you're thinking, it makes perfect sense I'm not sure why Butland isn't good enough for bench in league games, when he is good enough to start against a prem team in the cup. Does he play for the reserves anyone know?
