Stay away from Sunderland like the plague. The managing there is rubbish.
Last season they got the least out of players from any team in the Premier, save for maybe Norwich.
I have a story of three players. They were supposed to be the offense of Sunderland last season.
1. Steven Fletcher. Scored three goals last season. He was actually amazing on a terrible Wolves team a couple years ago. Ever since he has gone to Sunderland he has played pretty terribly. You might think that this is a one off deal and he's struggling with form, but you also have....
2. Jozy Altidore. Scored only one goals last season at Sunderland. Destroyed the Dutch league the year before, and has scored ten goals in his last 19 appearences at the international level. Scores at a torrid pace for both his club and country, but can only find the net once at Sunderland??? There is more.
3. Ji Dong-Won. Didn't score a single goal and barely appeared for Sunderland. Was loaned to Bundesliga where he magically started to perform, is now playing for Borussia Dortmund. A couple friends of mine that support BVB say he's been one of the best players in friendlies so far.
These are not poor players, they were just misused terribly at Sunderland.
Sunderland got lucky they could bring back an on-fire Wickham and have him manage to bring his goalscoring to the side. Other than him they got nothing out of quality players. They suck at utilizing talent and Gus Poyet is a terrible manager.
