Sunderland star Jobe Bellingham was once again at the heart of a decisive moment for the Black Cats.

The Black Cats have recorded a brilliant 2-1 victory at home to Norwich City, once again coming from a goal down at the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland found themselves initially down due to Anis Ben Slimane’s finish in the first half, with Dan Ballard’s header getting Regis Le Bris’ side back on level terms at the start of the second stanza.

Following a slog of a second half, which saw a Canaries defender shown red, Le Bris’ side were out looking for a moment of class from one of their individuals, with Jobe Bellingham delivering the goods.

The young midfielder’s goal for the Black Cats, once again, has got the Sunderland fans talking about just how good he has been.

Sunderland fans have their say on Jobe Bellingham performance vs Norwich City

The Black Cats have certainly been a force to be reckoned with this season, and the well-needed win against Norwich City showcased the quality they have, particularly in the centre-of-the-park put on by Bellingham.

After bagging the winning goal for Le Bris’ side, fans took to X to show their support for the goalscoring midfielder.

One suggested that ‘the lad is a superstar in the making’, after his goal, whilst another Sunderland fan agreed that ‘the kid has a lot of potential’.

Another also said: “Jobe has been our best and most consistent performer this season and consistently winning us points,” something that another fan agreed with after they described the youngster as ‘inevitable’.

He has also been described as an ‘absolute joke of a player’, as well as ‘the truth’.

Jobe Bellingham price tag increases every game week

With the January transfer window looming, Sunderland fans will be wary that some of their top players will be subject to interest, and even bids by Premier League and Champions League sides.

Bellingham will certainly be hotly-pursued in the coming weeks, but considering the club’s position of not needing to seel, as well as the wonderkids’ brilliant performances, a sale will surely only come if a massive bid comes through for him.

Le bris’ side are in a great position with Bellingham, and it is likely that he wouldn’t even want to leave the Black Cats during the season, especially with the very real prospect of promotion this season.
