I'd start both Walters and Diouf. Shaq isn't performing. He needs a rest. A rest is the last thing he needs right now. |

I wouldn't... I'd go Diouf first tire them out and then bring on Walters late. Walters has been playing well and doesn't deserve to be dropped, plus Diouf's pace would be much better served against tired legs. |

Diouf should always be starting when fit & available, it's a no-brainer.
It amazes me the number of posts on here saying we "just need a clinical target man" or we're "a top striker away" from being a really good team.
err... that's Diouf.

Walters has been playing well and doesn't deserve to be dropped, plus Diouf's pace would be much better served against tired legs. I didn't think he was all that good at St. Mary's to be honest. He looked spent from the match versus Bosnia. I'd rest him for the Sheff Weds match midweek and give him a run out after 75 mins tbh just to get enough of a run out before Dec 1. I suspect Hughes will do the same and keep Joselu and Walters ready for Sheff Weds. |

Diouf is first choice centre forward. Walters is a utility striker, one of the best in the business. Happy days!

Walters has done nothing at all (apart from miss) since his goal in the cup against Chelski, with Diouf's pace in front of Bojan we'll offer a far greater threat in front of goal. Gouranga.  Why change a wining team ,if Shaqiri ,Arnie or Allflly scored the score could easily been 3-0.The problem is there bad finishing not Walters and Dioufs finishing is not that good if it was then the manager who was a world class striker would be playing him.A little whisper is MH is not happy with Dioufs time keeping and why he was 24 hours later than expected. |

Yeah, okay. We're ignoring the fact that Mame has had to make two trips to Africa for international duty over the past five or six weeks on top of a shattering personal tragedy then are we? His commitment to the cause should never be questioned after that performance against Chelsea. |

I agree, didn't see the Bosnia game but by and large I think he's been pretty ineffective personally, particularly on Saturday. If someone can point out all the good stuff he's done for us lately I'm all ears, I just don't see it. My lad goes apoplectic every time he sees he's been selected, I think we're both missing something crucial regarding Walters. |

A little whisper aka made up voices in your head telling you a load of bollocks. It's laughable some of the drivel posted on here by certain posters who can't see past the old manager. |

Completely agree. Diouf plays on the shoulder of the last man, pushing defences back, which will hopefully give shaq, bojan and arnie more space to do their stuff - their link up play has been seriously developing - and hopefully Dioufs similar style to Vardy will result in the same goal record from now!

I think MH will keep a winning team. Walters should be fresher than last Saturday, he knows he has to perform better or lose his place, and he is due another goal for us.
Keep Bojan, Arni, and Shaq in their present roles; they are getting better each match and the goals will soon be going in.

Walters has been playing well and doesn't deserve to be dropped, plus Diouf's pace would be much better served against tired legs. When you say JW has been playing well, what exactly do you mean? Sure, Jon is a grafter who's effort is always 100% yet has only 2 Premier League goals. We are one of the lowest scoring clubs in the PL this season and perhaps Jon is the reason why - Diouf has 3 and he's hardly played since the death of his mother! Assuming Mame's head is in the right place, he's first choice for me. |

Sunderland went 8-1-1 tonight. I think Diouf is the better option for games where the opposition are doing most of the pressing and we are looking to hit them on the break but for opponents who sit tight themselves then Walters clever persistence is slightly more likely to reap dividends. Sunderland the team on the right tonight.  |

Now Walters has signed his contract, he'll be ok to be dropped for Diouf who will stretch O'Shea and Coates.

They have to come out all guns blazing on Saturday bearing in mind their horrendous Xmas fixture list. |

We're not scoring enough goals, which is a) not great entertainment and b) not going to be enough against the top teams (don't give me Chelsea because they are bad). |

Keep Bojan, Arni, and Shaq in their present roles; they are getting better each match and the goals will soon be going in. Blunderland are fairly pondrous at the back. So, the speed of Diouf in front Arnie, Shaq and Bojan should be a sight to behold. If we play like we did on Saturday AND we finish better, it could be a blow out. i |
