Sunderland April Update
We were definitely brought back down to earth during April after a successful March where we racked up three straight league wins and a FA cup semi final berth a Manager of the Month award and a Player of the month third place.
We failed to win any of our league games and conceded 8 league goals, which seems a common theme this season. The defence needs to be worked on over the summer.
On a positive note we will be appearing in our second cup final of the season after a semi final penalty win over Leicester. We now face Chelsea in the FA Cup Final on May 14th. Can we become the cup kings this season and add another trophy to our February Capital Cup win?
Although league survival is assured I would like the boys to respond from a poor April by grabbing 6 points from our final two games, this points haul could potentially elevate ourselves to 12th in the table.
It also looks like we may be fighting a losing battle with Star Man Everton Ribeiro's future, the £25.5m man is looking for a move away to a bigger club, although it would be a shame to lose a player of his caliber if someone came in with the right offer we would potentially sell, especially when we only paid £1.05 million for him at the start of the season.
