Match Thread Sunderland 1-1 Everton - Monday 3rd November 2025

[b-rad]

Excited to see our Jordan back at the SOL.

Game could go either way, make you slight favourites and would take a draw today I think to keep the momentum.

You're at home
You're 4th in the table, vs us in 14th
You've won 3 of the last 5. We've lost 3 of the last 5.

I don't see how you make us slight favourites.
It might be a close game, but we're not favourites.

Genuine question.Are the cracks appearing regarding Moyes?, or is it just frustration at the minute on your part.

 

[Nymzee]

No striker = no goals

 

[TrixyStevens]

Just my opinion, I think we’re going to get battered.

 

[daza_1973]

Another loss incoming I fear.
Moyes first full season seems to be replicating FSW tenure here. A promising start slowly spiralling into a winter of misery.

Got a feeling we will win this one. UTFT.

Come on mate, we’re still a newly promoted team and you’re established in the PL. There shouldn’t really be a single game this early in the season we’re favourites for.

The bookies make you slight favourites for what it’s worth.

That's my worry but this side needs a real shake up to keep everyone on their toes.

This has been evident for a while, but 'Moyes' and 'shake up' are not a natural pair up.

Ah, but we watch us every week. We have no idea where our next goal might come from.

I appreciate you are newly promoted, and you won't finish the season where you are now, but come May we'll both be fighting it out between 8th and 15th I'd expect. At the moment though, I'd have you down as favourites. Perhaps a draw is the most likely result though.

Definelty needs a bit of a shake up for me, Rohl and/or Alcaraz in. I think Illy playing the 9 with Alcaraz behind him, playing the ball to his feet rather than hoofing up to Beto or Barry can work. No CB's in the country would want Ndiaye running at them

There's no comparison between that dreadful man & Moyes.

 

[Amokachi1995]

Something needs changing. We're neither defensively secure nor look like scoring.

Sunderland have been a surprise package but 9 matches in there should be enough data to work out tactically how to get at them. Lets make the changes needed to do that.

I mean that’s fair summary. But I’m not wrong - you should stick some money on it like, as the bookies do make you slight favourites - and there rarely wrong,

I thought Barry looked lively when he was on the pitch against Spurs. We’re also absolutely awful at breaking teams down who do a low block against us, which I’m guessing Moyes might try. Look at Burnley away as a perfect example of that.

Also the broader point is let’s not underestimate Sunderland ability to mess it up whenever our fans start getting hopeful.

Play more long balls then anyone in the league don't they. Winning the 2nd ball will be crucial .
