Well done lads, well deserved š Should have been easier for us, squeaky bum time near the end. They're a top side mate, I thought we played the match out perfectly. Clarke leaving could've knocked us back but they showed real courage to say how young they are. Couldn't be more more proud, can't wait for Portsmouth. Couldn't agree more mucker, bossed most of the game, what should have been a hard game turned out to be quite comfortable mostly, but we should have been cruising when 'halfwit' Neil got sent off, it would only have taken a deflected shot or mistake to ruin everything we done in that game and we had the opportunities and chances to do it but couldn't put another one away. Actually think Pompey will put up a better fight, don't think Burnley expected that we would close them down as much and attack them like we did. All in all, a great performance and day š |

linkClarke heapes praise on his Sunderland replacementMundle shared a photo of his goal on social media and Clarke was one of the first to respond. The 23-year-old wrote: āExceptional ā¤ļøā, to which Mundle replied: āā¤ļøš„ā. Mundle and Clarke were both together at Tottenham Hotspur earlier in their career, before being reunited at the Stadium of Light. The pair failed to force their way into the first team at Spurs, but Mundle will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of his former teammate on Wearside. Romaine Mundle deserves a chance in the starting line-up The youngsterās early signs have shown plenty of promise, but he has looked very raw and chaotic ā similar to Clarke during his loan spell at the club. The Ipswich man really didnāt impress in his first stint with Sunderland, but the two seasons that followed were truly exceptional. There is no reason why Mundle canāt enjoy the same success and he really deserves the chance to make his mark in the Championship. It will be interesting to see what Sunderland do with the money they have cashed in from Clarkeās exit, but it definitely seems worth it to give Mundle the opportunity to claim Clarkeās spot rather than leaving him to fight for his place from the bench. Clarkeās departure was far from ideal and a little heartbreaking, but the win over Burnley has kept spirits high and has proven Regis Le Bris can guide this team to glory without him.

Full time 3 points, another clean sheet and top of the league. Mundle is as good as Clarke and we still (reportedly) have 2 strikers coming ing before the window closes. Who is Clarke?.............š |
