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

If we don’t win tonight we will be in a relegation battle until the results pick up. That’s the way it is.

until it’s may and we’re in the bottom 3

it’s NOT

What odds do you think you will get for 1st sub to be Beto for Barry between half time and 60 mins?

I hope I am wrong of course, but this clearly seems the only possibility for Moyes...

No Rohl, No Alcaraz, O'Brien still at RB, KDH in a number 10 role..... all sackable offences in my eyes. Joking clearly, but someone needs to give his head a wobble.

 

[efcste97]

It’s an interesting if slightly uninventive starting team

Nothing interesting at all about that 11, he hasn't rewarded the likes of Rohl or Alcaraz who have had good cameos in their own right, especially Alcaraz who changed the game vs palace when playing in the 10, yet only got 5 minutes vs spurs.

He’ll give Barry two or three games, then go straight back to Beto. He’s completely predictable.

Sunderland will be bricking it at the prospect of Mykolenko and O’Brien rampaging down the wings. Unless Myko plays his dynamic ‘inverted winger’ role again.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Half time for me

Yeah,he usually goes for that Moyes,we’ll see!!!

 

[Gilbert..]

At least he's flummoxed the sunderland manager with that line up.
He'd have never guessed that.

 

[TheBigIguana]

I just don’t think we’re playing nearly well enough to not make substantive changes looking for improvement.

 

[Curtis]

Stop trying to make Dewsberry hall into a ten Moyes, it's obviously not working. I'm losing my mind he's just so resistant to change

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Half time like for like change. 70th min he will bring Rohl on but we are already 1-0 down. Alcaraz on in 80th min but we are done 2-0 at this point

Spot on,getting very predictable unfortunately.

 

[blue to the bone]

Only 1 keeper on bench
Moyesie is going for this
A cannon to a gun fight

 

[Clarky cat]

If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again… or just swap Barry and Beto.

 

[blackie_jones75]

I guess but I've got 0 confidence
Competition winner up top

Yes should be interesting to see if he provides any goal threat whatsoever , at least Beto gets into the positions when he effs things up and has shots or headers

 

[Saint Domingo]

We had a great away record at the end of last season using Alcaraz behind Beto and playing on the break. So of course we haven’t done it once this season.

Why is Barry starting away games when he’s better in the build up play which we’d probably have more of at home, and Beto is starting home games when he’d probably prefer to play on the break away from home.

Why is Alcaraz not starting at all?!

 

[bigstickytoffee]

God that is grim.... Sunderland must be licking their lips....

 

[Seathestars]

Barry needs a run of games, otherwise we will never find out if he's good enough.
So far the evidence firmly suggests not, but in and out the team like a blue arsed fly helps no one
