Good luck to them both. I hope they show us something with regular games. But as mentioned, they arent good enough for us any more.

Best of luck Bryan. Will always love you for the winner at Old Trafford, and the way conducted yourself as a professional at all times, and were boss with the fans. Hope Sunderland stay up and it's because of something you do.

Glad he's gone. He put videos of his kid running around in a Chelsea kit on his instagram on numerous occasions recently, see you later Bry.

As Crystal Palace's big-money defender struggled to make an impact against his former team, his direct replacement wasted no time in endearing himself to his new supporters with a fine performance.
Bryan Oviedo came to Wearside as somewhat of an unknown quantity, despite this season being his fifth in England. With only 50 Premier League games to his name, the majority of those as a substitute, fans could be forgiven for not knowing a great deal about the new arrival. But the Costa Rican needed just 90 minutes to make Sunderland fans forget their former man as he put in a near-perfect display on debut.
As far as first impressions go, only a goal would have seen Oviedo make a better one. But that would have been the cherry on top of an already delicious cake. He was brought in to defend, first and foremost, and he carried out that duty superbly as Sunderland romped to a vital 4-0 win at Selhurst Park.
On paper, Oviedo faced a difficult task in keeping the in-form Wilfried Zaha quiet, particularly considering the fact that he had last played for Everton in early November. But, in the words of Ian Wright, Oviedo "bottled up" the Ivorian and saw him endure a miserable afternoon down the right wing. Palace's tactics were quite simple - get the ball wide and look to cross for Christian Benteke. But Oviedo simply did not allow that to happen, making an impressive five tackles on Zaha alone.
In fact, Oviedo's total of seven tackles was the most in the Premier League all weekend. He also contributed a respectable six clearances as Sunderland recorded back-to-back clean sheets.
With cover from Jason Denayer in the five-man defence, Zaha was unable to cut inside to link with Benteke. As a result, Oviedo was able to keep Zaha wide, and the Ivorian increasingly dropped deeper as he looked to get on the ball, visibly frustrated by his lack of space.

Only after the injury. With regular football he might get back a decent level, just wasnt good enough to be a regular for us.
