Just saw that this is on live here on sportsnet at 8:30am Ontario time.

Really? thanks, got up early on my day off to sit in front of the PC, now I can go watch it on the big screen!

Spurs making mincemeat of South China yet we struggled to beat them. Pitch is very poor in midfield but playable.

On the plus side, ground is full of City fans.

Predicting a big Sunderland win. They'll be up for this, whilst our top players have only just started training. Main thing is to get through the game without injury and build up a pattern of play[/quote

wtf?

Hope Navas can get a run out.

We struggled to beat them because the pitch was absolute dire and we made subs. Win or lose it doesn't matter as pellegrini said many times pre season is about fitness and as the commentator just said they were giving it their all when they versed us and now they're tired.

When did Sunderland begin training?

Don't know, but half our team Silva, Zab, Kun, Navas, Negredo, Jovetic just turned up and no doubt we'll be playing these to get them up to speed asap.
