Teemu Tainio has warned his Sunderland team-mates that they will be in danger of Premier League relegation if they begin…

Started the season poorly, i`ve never been his biggest fan but he`s improved as the season has gone on and is now consistently turning in decent performances.

Still prefer to see Tainio in before…

Whitehead is picked ahead of Tainio?

Shall we have a poll about who prefers who?

I have nothing against Whitehead, he is a tryer and not a bad squad player. Tainio is simply a better player.

Would love to see us go out and rip the bastards to bits. Therefore an attacking 4-3-3 of these 10 would do me (injuries permitting mind):
