Sunderlands first goal had an xgot of 0.10. Expected stats are nonsence

those xg stats are nonsence, based on them he should have saved 1.26 of the goals yesterday but if you watch the game he has no chance.

He was the only Irish player to put in a decent performance, stopped it from being 3-0 in the first 10 minutes. Will Smallbone however looked awful.

Mark Travers was one of the best keepers in the championship last year and Baz is ahead of him in the Ireland sey up. Hes good enough for a team looking to get promoted.

Anyone that thinks the defence hasn't been too bad hasn't been watching our games. McCarthy is well on his way to catching up with Bazunus stats after only 3 games.

McCarthy could end up with more goals conceded than Bazunu at this rate

so do people still think we would have stayed up if Mccarthy played more games. Just get Bazunu on and let him get some more experience seasons long over and he will most likely be our first choice next season.

Yeah, was going straight to him and would have been able to clear it if he hadn't.

Had a good game, few good saves, out quick a few times to gather the ball, the goal was a good strike in off the crossbar wasn't at fault.
