WTF Sunderland Podcast

Sunderland return to the Premier League after eight long years with a visit from West Ham United and Graham Potter. It's finally back, and we open it at the SOL. What can we expect from the Hammers then? And what do they expect from us? It's been 100 months since our last clash, so I roped in James Jones of We Are West Ham Podcast to give us the lowdown on this weekend's opening day opponents. Enjoyed the episode?

Fabrizio has given us the 'here we go!', we've seen him getting off the plane, and it looks like he's hours away from being named an official Sunderland player. But what is Omar Alderete really like? My journalist Roberto Rojas, Paraguayan football expert and ESPN Associate Editor, joins me to give us the low down on our new centre-back, what to expect, his strengths and weakness and a whole load more.

Sunderland are back in the Premier League this weekend. The Ballard moment, that Watson goal still fresh in the mind, but now it is time for the reality of what we have to come. Can Sunderland return to the top flight, and ensure it is more than just a one season stay? To preview the season ahead, we have Sophie, Pete, Ian and Dave to run through our predictions for the season, who will shine, and who will bag the goals to keep us in the Premier League come season end. Plus, who will win the league, and our unpopular Premier League opinions. Enjoyed the episode?

Look at us doing transfer specials again, who'd have thought? Truth is, like many of you, we have no idea what Marc Guiu is like, so we really wanted to find out. My wonderful journalist pal, and massive Chelsea fan, Rob Pratley joins me to give us the low down on our new loan recruit, what to expect, his strengths and weakness and a while load more.

And now time for something a little different. We were delighted to welcome Sunderland's first team performance psychologist Lauren Garner to the show to chat mentality, injuries and what it took for the Lads to keep going #TilTheEnd. Brad Sharpe makes one of his random podcast appearances, as we get a little bit deeper than usual with Lauren, and what her day-to-day role is at the AOL. Enjoyed the episode?
