12 Players You Totally Forgot Played For Sunderland

10. Stern John

If there was an award for the best named Sunderland player of all time, Stern John would walk away with it every time. The Trinidad & Tobago striker has 16 clubs on his CV, along with 115 international caps and a stunning 70 goals. He was a machine back in the day, and made 16 appearances for the Black Cats in 2007 before being used as a bargaining chip for Kenwyne Jones' transfer deal half a year later. Remarkably, John even managed five league goals in red and white, despite his obscurity at the time. Instantly that puts him ahead of Tore Andre Flo, Jon Stead, Jozy Altidore, and Danny Graham in the Sunderland goalscoring charts.
