Team for Sunderland

[123EasyasBFC]

Luca is defo with the squad my mate is there, he said no benson weghorst or Cullen though

[claretskeith]

Lot of very negative vibes/rumours on here today. Hopefully Clarke is not playing for them. Not sure how we have gone from the strongest squad in the league to the bare bones ( According to some ) Can’t see us keeping a clean sheet if O Shea is missing

We had the strongest squad a week or so ago. Now, it's top 6.

[Firthy]

Ok here goe

Hladky
Roberts McNally Esteves Pires
Brownhill Messengo
Vitinho JRod Koleosho
Foster

[jedi_master]

Giving me opening day away at Leicester vibes from 2020 when we had Tarky refusing to play, a cast of injuries and started with Jimmy Dunne and Kevin Long at centre back. We lost 4-2.

[claretskeith]

Trafford
Roberts McNally Esteve Pires
Brownhill Massengo
Jay Houtindji Agyei
Foster

It'll be interesting - more like a trial side to see how a few players get on.

[123EasyasBFC]

Amdouni and Vitinho both there to and Trafford

[Conroysleftfoot]

Luca is defo with the squad my mate is there, he said no benson weghorst or Cullen though

Cullen to Bayern?

[NickBFC]

Awful line up.

[KefkaClaret]

That subs bench is dire

[AGENT_CLARET]

Terrible line up, why is Amdouni on the bench

[KefkaClaret]

Jesus that lineup is dire as well

[Hedontplayforyou]

What kind of message does this send to the fans . That’s a shambles. 3 youth players on the bench and 2 keepers . Now we have no wingers it’s so strange

[Newcastleclaret93]

Very strange line up tbf

[Casper2]

Horrendous

[Firthy]

Where's Koleosho

[Fretters]

Shocker.

[CoolClaret]

I bet Parker is rightly ****** off and it's bullshit to expect the fans to get behind wholesale changes every season tbh.

It's a football club, not ALKs play thing.

Very disappointed to see this lineup after the first two games.

[Blyclaret]

That’s not the team.

[gandhisflipflop]

No Cullen
No Koleosho
No O’Shea (although we knew that one)
Zeki apparently off to benfica yet is on the bench
No creativity out wide at all
3 youth players on the bench.


Absolute joke.

[morninbob]

We really aren't

Nope, you're right, only 2 keepers and 3 kids on the bench...

[claretskeith]

At least we can have no expectations today.

[willsclarets]

What in God's name is that? Weghorst, Benson, Luca, Cullen, Weghorst can't all be injured

[Safron]

Terrible line up, why is Amdouni on the bench

Probably because he is the only game changer on it !

[123EasyasBFC]

Koleosho was with the squad today he signed my mates little boys shirt at Sunderland but he’s got a knock

[IanMcL]

We need Madge

A heartbeat away from the bench, by the look of it!

[blatherwickstattoos]

Shocking line up.

[AlargeClaret]

That team’s a bit odd looking and the bench ? Kids and 2 keepers and Amdouni but.. . Positives being a start for “ Houdini “ and Massengo ,Pires settling in and the new Chelsea lad on the bench . Be interesting to see Egan Riley’s progress as well . Koleosho a real miss though .

Let’s not forget WW,OS, Beni, Zaroury, Amdouni,JBG are /good as gone so we had to re-set sooner or later .

[Gp8419]

Clearly loads more still to leave,what a load of crap you lot suggesting that’s a crap line up.Still enough on there to win the game.

[The Shire Claret]

Obvious Trafford was coming back in

Two CB’s we’ve signed are not ready

Luca had a knock

——-

My only concern is Cullen - I’m hoping he’s going nowhere cause for me everyone one currently sold - we can afford to sell … not Cullen

We are going to see some of the players we have wanted to see

They're contracted, Parker doesn't have to sell all of them. Amdouni is one I'd say look one season at your age in the championship will do you good. If you still want to leave at the end of the season fine.

[BurnleyFC]

That’s bench is a joke. 2 goalkeepers just to pad it out.

We’ve gone from having the strongest bench to one of the weakest.

Sort it out, Pace.

[PremierLeagueClass]

Any word on Cullen?

[PremierLeagueClass]

Could be more than one player making their debut against Rovers next week.

[TsarBomba]

Matt Scrafton has put it at 14 players not involved today, for various reasons.

Al-Dakhil, Beyer, Ekdal, Delcroix, O’Shea, Worral, Cullen, Ramsey, Agyei, Benson, Koleosho, Tresor, Redmond, Weghorst.

I don’t care who is at fault, but to have 14 players not involved, at any stage of the season, is appalling.
