Hats and scarves on folks, we’ve one last roll of the dice in gameweek fourteen as Sunderland play host to Everton this evening.

This morning’s paper reports proved to be correct as Asamoah Gyan sits out with leg injury allowing Darren Bent to return to the team. Anton Ferdinand comes in for Sunderland’s rock – no joke – Titus Bramble, presumably having picked up a knock too. Everton are unchanged. Full teams follow…

Sunderland XI: Gordon; Onuoha, Turner, Ferdinand, Bardsley; Richardson, Henderson, Cattermole, Zenden; Bent, Welbeck
Everton XI: Howard; Neville, Jagielka, Distin, Baines; Coleman, Arteta, Heitinga, Pienaar; Cahill; Saha

The Dugout Discussion is open awaiting all of your yelps if your heart so desires.

Boom!!!
15 years, 1 month ago
Mourinho was speaking at the League Managers' Association Hall of Fame Dinner on Monday night and he was inevitably probed about the possibility of taking over Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.

Ferguson recently rejected rumours of him retiring and that has not surprised the former Chelsea boss.

Mourinho added: "When I heard Sir Alex say this I was laughing because I was not surprised.

"He has an incredible humour but at the same time brightness and common sense. For me he is amazing as he is the same person I met in 2004.

"I have more white hair and more wrinkles but he is exactly the same. I hope he continues for years and I get to face him a few more times.

Ahhh, Didn't realise Welbeck got the second as well, I just saw the Arteta goal pop up at the same time so was excited. No realistic chance of Arteta 3 BP's then. But I've seen weirder things.

    Exactly the same with me... It's the way this season is going for everyone. You get these players in for some decent fixtures and they do f*ck, and then they score well when out of your team with much harder fixtures.

  Beggars belief - Arteta didn't influence the game one bit until he hits a deflected shot in (own goal as well). Cahill scores one and has two cleared off the line and ran his boll*cks off in all fairness. End of rant...

Wellbeck already got his two goals, wtf do they have to give him the 3 additional points. Same as with VDV yesterday, the stats show that he was the most productive player, while in reality he was rubbish apart from those contributions.

Torn here. Have one transfer, and Mummy must go - but - should I go Carroll > Elmander for the BLP fixture? Although I'd lose 0.6 selling Carroll, Elmander's fixtures are a lot better, plus I risk losing ground in my mini league. Other strikers are Drogs & Tevez - I'm keeping them.

      I think you're right. Carroll seems to be somewhat fixture proof anyway.
      
      I am definitely not selling Drogba anyway. I'm not stuck for cash elsewhere and he is due a big points haul very soon.
