Sunderland Vs Southampton FA Cup Fifth Round: Official Sunderland Not606 Match Thread

Strange teams, rather similar

Very surprised they arent fielding a full strength side

Mike Dean being the ref and Dossena playing...i can see a red/penalty

 

Me anarl mate, very strange tbh.

It's the 5th round, they can't go down or win the league and finishing 7th means nowt .......... I was excited for half an hour when we did it.

I think there'll be goals but want either a win or a 5-4 defeat, but no replay please.

 

Wow that's like a full b side we are fielding. This never works. You should always try and keep your core players in for me.

 

We couldn't cope with an injury or red card for any of them.

Shame but we need to stay up more than anything.

 

Very cagey atm

 

Giacc' started well, liking scocco's movement.

 

The attendance is poor but remember we all have hotels etc to pay for wembley. Thought id say this before people start

 

First goal here is vital.

 

Catts and Giacc playing really well.

 

I think we are doing well, neither side creating though

 

Boring game so far, if it gets to 88mins and still 0-0 can we agree to flip a coin? No one wants a replay

 

I'm enjoying it, maybe I'm sad lol. We look the better team. Our pitch not looking the best.

 

I think Giaccherini is playing well, either team could win it just needs a goal to liven it up tbh.

Think JWP should of scored but other than that it's been a bit slow from us, need both teams to move up a couple of gears to make a entertaining second half

 

This, got a draw written all over it

 

Liking the look of our front three. Considering Scocco hasn't played since November I'm impressed.

 

Seems to have good control, position & awareness. Just needs to be match fit and he'll do alright

 

So if you play the man and not the ball it's not a penalty. ?? Granted my stream isn't great but I can guarantee that's a penalty to every top 5 tram in the country

 

could have been given like. He checked him and was nowhere near getting the ball. Borini had done him.

 

I've quite enjoyed it. We've played quite well and stopped them playing their normal game. We've passed the ball quite well. Just need a spark up front. Scocco looks miles from fitness but his movement has been good

 

I think you're on the right track there mate
