No Morrison. I hope he's in the squad against Wolverhampton on Saturday.
 
Petrucci has been one of our better players in reserves, it won't be a surprise to see him in the squad against Wolves.
 
PIG, Vermijl, Wootton, Thorpe, McGinty, Lingard, Fornasier, M Keane, Pogba, Blackett, W Keane

Reserves Bench: Sutherland, Leao, Giverin, Massacci, Cofie, Van Velzen

Cold and windy night in Sunderland...
 
We're playing:

----------------------- Keane -----------------------
--- Blackett ----------- Pogba ------------ Lingard ---
---------------- Fornasier --- Thorpe ----------------
- McGinty ------- Wootton -- Keane --------- Vermijl -
---------------------- Kuszczak ---------------------
 
Outstanding from Vermijl. Good ball from Fornasier.
 
Why are we playing so many defenders? Pogba looks to me like his starting position is all wrong. He's waiting for the ball to come to him as opposed to being involved deeper and breaking from deep. Hopefully cofie comes on, we keep the two up top and put Pogba in his natural position. Unlucky to be behind, some decent play in mad conditions
 
Nothing going right for Pogba so far. Great goal from Vermijl cutting in from the right hand side of the box onto his left foot
 
Pig is a liability, poor as a keeper and even poorer organising defence. -----------feel sorry for the kids.
 
M.Keane seems to have a good game though, atleast after I turned in. That's quite the achievment in a 5-3 game though
