It's been claimed, all season, that Sunderland have played teams 'just at the right moment'. In this case I'd have to agree, Fulham are currently knee deep in a relegation battle but seem totally oblivious to the fact They've become complacent, know they're just making up the numbers and going through the motions ... ... the manager, complaining about their poor recruitment, gave their players just the excuse they needed. In my opinion they're going down and we need to really blitz them when we go there. It could be the easiest away points we'll get all season.
I'm not sure it will be a walkover but I do think we're better than them all over the park and have got to be targeting 3 points
They’ve still got some decent characters in that side so I don’t think it will be an easy game but we certainly need to be targeting wins in our next two with the early December fixtures.
They’ve won the important home games so far this season. A point next week would be a good result down there, keep us ticking along
You're right that there are no easy games, Arsenal found that out on Saturday. Fulham are in a real mess though. They've won one of their last seven which was against Wolves who played for an hour with ten men, they've lost all the rest. In the last game they won, back in September against Brentford, they only had three attempts on target, scored three and one was an OG And before that game they'd only scored one goal from open play. They're exactly the kind of side we need to be beating and anything but a win will be really disappointing. Silva looks like he's lost interest and it's clear, to me anyway, that it's the beginning of the end for him ... ... I'd guess he's already watching the situation at other clubs and making plans.
