    I live in North Carolina. I fell in love with Sunderland the city and Sunderland AFC like many Americans, watching the show on Netflix. O'Nien is my favorite player because he enjoys playing every minute like a kid. I respect that. Cheers to all the lads and supporters of this great club and city.

    I was in a taxi in Westminster and the driver started talking about football and said son had just got into the first team at Watford. I said Luke O’Nien and he was shocked I knew who he was talking about.
    I add a caveat I don’t know if he just said yes when I said Luke but as a Watford fan I knew he had just got into first team.
    A victim at the time of Watford looking to their Udinese and Granada scouting set up to miss Luke and Britt Assombalonga already under their noses busting a gut to get recognised.
    If that was your Dad Luke - you have done well since that short taxi ride in Jan 2014.

    Hello, I'm a Sunderland fan from Portugal (and FC Porto fan) and I have a huge respect from Luke O'Nien. He got so much heart and soul, he for me represents Sunderland. In the documentary Sunderland Til I Die he said that one of his dreams was to play on the Premier League and I hope that his dream come true and he play there with Sunderland. Even if Sunderland could not get the playoffs and have a chance this Season to get back to the Premier, I sincerely hope that Next Season you return to the place where you belong. I love this club.

    In the land of the Sunderland red,
    A footballer's tale is to be said.
    His name is Luke O'Nien, a legend so bright,
    A star that shines in the darkest night.
    With a heart on his sleeve, he'd run and fight,
    In every position, he'd play with might.
    From up front to the back, he'd dart and weave,
    For Sunderland AFC, he'd never leave.
    In the heat of the battle, he'd make a stand,
    With a tackle, a pass, or a shot so grand.
    He scores goals aplenty, his touch so fine,
    This hero of ours, O'Nien divine.
    His spirit, a beacon that burns so fierce,
    He lifts up the team, the fans he'd pierce.
    His love for the club, a bond unbroken,
    A tale of loyalty, forever spoken.
    Oh, Luke O'Nien, a Black Cat so bold,
    A footballer's story that's yet to be told.
    A warrior, a leader, a Sunderland dream,
    Forever in our hearts, your light shall gleam.

Yet, there is no question that Luke's heart, spirit and honesty, not to mention his determination to be the best he can for the shirt and the city, make him utterly irresistible.

    If you don’t love Luke O’nien are you even a human being? An asset to Sunderland and a great role model

    Luke O'NIEN is just a fantastic human being, a great example to young footballers all over the world. The way he conducts himself and his true professionalism is simply magnificent. Many Premier League players could and should learn a lot from the way this lad conducts himself. Great to have you at the club Luke
