Match Thread EPL Sunderland (A) - Wednesday February 12th 20:15

[localny]

Mo Salah, Mo Salah, should be running down Bayern's wing...

 

[SummerOnions]

Stadium of light. Grass made of shite. State of this third Division pitch

 

[Farkmaster]

I don't understand why we feel we have to counter in these gamestates, when at 0-0 we are willing to go backwards.

Pen, no?

 

[FreshRed]

Lets not pretend Gakpo has done anything more

He actually has. He made a number of decent crosses first half and provided some width for a change.

 

[The Nomad]

Ok so you can now have your arms out as long as you aren't looking at the ball.

Fuck me.

 

[Cerberus]

Stupid sexy Wirtz.

 

[dee]

Ibou immense

 

[FreshRed]

There we are again. Sitting back and just holding on.

Why do we hate having a lead?!

 

[Modo]

Cobi Jones time

 

[SummerOnions]

Wow a sub in the 73rd minute non injury enforced!

 

[Farkmaster]

What the fuck are we doing. Why are we 3 yards off the pace after about 5 minutes of second half play.

 

[SteveQ78]

20 mins of just defending now..

 

[Hansern]

Don’t set up to negative now you nonce!

 

[Modo]

Terrible pass by Ekitike

 

[Mojo]

Konate's been immense so far against Brobbey

 

[Farkmaster]

Are we really setting up negative though? Or are we shitting ourselves and they are going for it slightly?

 

[ibromurph]

Unfortunately, the juice isn't worth the squeeze any more with our legend Mo. We accept his lack of workrate for output. And nowadays that output is 1 or 2 decent balls, 1 or 2 blocked shots/crosses and everything else largely shite.

 

[Modo]

Where is Jones playing?

 

[Mojo]

What a shit pass from Ekitike

 

[Modo]

Unfortunately, the juice isn't worth the squeeze any more with our legend Mo. We accept his lack of workrate for output. And nowadays that output is 1 or 2 decent balls, 1 or 2 blocked shots/crosses and everything else largely shite.

He's stat padding via corners and penalties

 

[The Nomad]

Yey more square peg round hole bollocks. Wirtz has played well in middle.

 

[Mojo]

No squeezing the juuuuice

 

[Farkmaster]

Come on Jones.

 

[keniget]

Gakpo should’ve been hooked way earlier. He wasn’t being particularly diligent tracking back either

 

[The Nomad]

Where is Jones playing?

No one knows.

 

[Mojo]

Where is Jones playing?

Stadium of Light

 

[Farkmaster]

Gakpo should’ve been hooked way earlier. He wasn’t being particularly diligent tracking back either

It's a pretty early sub considering the extra time.

 

[Halmeister]

Are you lifting 5kgs there to do a full 2 hour session?

I'm trying to sculpt muscle in places that I don't even have places just to get out of watching it

 

[Modo]

Stadium of Light

Ok that's a start. Is he wearing green?

 

[ibromurph]

Gakpo should’ve been hooked way earlier. He wasn’t being particularly diligent tracking back either

When I saw him jogging back earlier, I was thinking the same. Cody, you're not good enough to be this lazy.
