Pretty frustrating game. Had some really excellent touches and created a few chances out of very little, though.

They were the best center back pairing in the league last year. What sort of upgrade do you really expect? We definitely need a 4th cb especially with Verm out but no one we bring in would start over Per and kos. LB? Yea now we're screwed but we lost two in one game we wouldn't have had our third LB on the bench for this game anyway

Jozy played well, they didn't create too many chances for him or anybody else though. A lot of their shots were from outside the box and most of their crosses were bad.

Perfect match for me. Jozy played well, but short-handed and bang-up Fulham gets the 3 points.

From my limited experience Jozy played well. My sunderland bandwagon fandom off to a rousing start. The best thing about the match was that I was actually genuinely upset at the loss and didn't shrug it off like I have in the past with soccer.

If you want a guide on how to act, just mimic Di Canio's reactions on the sideline. He'll let you know when it's time to be happy or upset.

Sounds about like he did when he was doing pregame on Fox.

What´s up with Michu in the 9 role? Didn´t Swansea buy a striker this offseason?

They signed Wilfried Bony from the Dutch league, but he's on the bench. Played against Mexico for Ivory Coast earlier this week.

who´s that with the brilliant pass back for DeGea?

Almost gave up a goal, and almost got DeGea killed in the process?

same guy who hit that volley. 4. who is that?

How about we actually have a 4th cb of any shape or form?

How about a DM to take over for Arteta who we were lucky adapted well last season to that role. Sagna at cb and an old midfielder are stop gaps, chez might be a solid prem keeper 5 years from now but he's too inconsistent and lacking in conviction/confidence.

Not to mention failing to bring in anything new on offense
