Sunderland 2-3 Fulham FA Cup replay - 8 Feb 19:45

[_Putney_]

wasn't a foul

[St Eve]

Rodak does not look great

[bencher]

I like the fight we are showing even if we are not dominating currently

[Sammyffc]

I'm enjoying the game, but it's patently obvious who are our weaker players on show (Kurzawa, Vini..)

Don't think that's fair. Kurzawa has been doing well today. If anything I think the area we're doing worse in is on our wing play... The wingers are doing well but i'd argue they seem to be trying to hard. Wilson has had a few moments where he really should've played a through ball to vini on a couple of occasions where Vini was in a great position and on his strong foot. Both wingers have done well until the final ball where I think they've had their heads down too much and not see the obvious pass.

Agreed, it does look like Soloman is dropping into the pocket to cut the space infront of Kurzawa way more than Wilson is being made to do with Tete, seems tactical

[Nero]

like this ref

[love4ffc]

Fulham do look to be looking for a possible long ball to Harry and put him in.. 

[Brawn]

Total lack of that 4-4-2 shape off the ball we have been playing with so well of late and that's causing some defensive amateur hour so far.

[Mince n Tatties]

Palhinha not at his best.

[St Eve]

Vinicius is being out muscled

[elgreenio]

I've still got no idea what type of striker Vinicius is or wants to be? Target man?

[love4ffc]

Not a bad first half.  Harry should be on a hat trick.  As GJ says, a bit nervy at times in the back.

Kurzawa's improved as the game has developed, but Vini is pretty frustrating to observe.

Vini set up our goal..

[TC's Sporran]

yeah with solomon and wilson both looking to cut inside and shoot my cousin isnt getting much service

[General]

What a bunch of whiners we have on the board this evening.

[bencher]

What a bunch of whiners we have on the board this evening.

I hope you were including yourself in that observation

[filham]

Vinicius is being out muscled

He was out muscled by the delicate Patrick Roberts early in the game.

[davew]

Unselfish there by Vini to lay it back and not to try and turn with a shot. 

Only contribution he has made in the 1st half, bring back Muniz!!

Nope, you're being sensitive. Most of mine have been fairly optimistic.

[filham]

We dominated in the 1st half hour and could have been 3-0 up.
Sunderland now right back in the game and it looks as if we are going to have to use a number of our subs.

[St Eve]

We are doing ok and just enough. Unfortunately none of our fringe players are setting the world on fire. Cairney is controlling the show and Solomon shows glimpses of class. Rodak shaky, Vinicius out muscled. Harris quiet
