Jay Dasilva wearing a protective boot on his left foot/ankle.

Absolutely superb tackle by Sheaf there. Mental game.

or Simms! Definitely shouldn't have shot.

Oh my word, best OG v us since Lee Dixon.

Exactly what I just said.

Six v two for the Watford opener and plenty there again - someone has to take responsibility. Far too easy.

If you’re Clive it’s the above, not if you’re Dutch!

Van Ay-vyke (ay as in hay without the h; vyke rhyming with bike)

Need to get Eccles off corners. Not been at his best today and the corners haven't helped.

He was gesturing to Thomas that he should have been covering. Was a total mess - two Watford players versus six of ours; Lati not close enough to Rajovic after the striker slipped. As I'm typing, what a fucking goal!!!

Some really encouraging play from Wright. Couple of powerful runs so far, showing pace and skill. Definitely a player in there and someone who looks in the Vik mould in terms of direct running.

For those not watching, Godden hit it hard but at a good height for the keeper to his right. Keeper got a strong hand to it and Palmer had a decent chance from the rebound but didn't threaten. Haven't seen a conclusive replay to show it was a clear penalty. Great play from DaSilva in the build-up.

Lovely first touch to escape a Watford player and burst of speed down the right from Van Ewijk. He's come on so much since Leicester already - could be a heck of a signing. Looks a proper talent.

Also made a few last-ditch blocks including a crucial one just then.

Ayari looks excellent - Wright should have scored from the through-ball a couple of minutes ago; too easy for the keeper.

I thought he was booked first half so was celebrating a second yellow, only to find out the first-half booking was Ekwah.

He had to shoot from there.

Goal-saving challenge from Latibeaudiere there as Bellingham was free in the middle. He's been very tidy today.

Palmer is all over Hume. Looks much more of a force now he's fitter. Not got anywhere near the two defenders on yellows, though.

Enjoyed that half. Dominated possession without many real chances - the one save coming from a Simms shot near the end of the first half. We look good out wide with both wing-backs looking to get forward. Everyone playing their part. Sunderland have two defenders on yellows, O'Nien and Cirkin...
