Final Score Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Right! Let’s go!
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Get the recognised 1st teamers off & save them for Saturday, no point flogging a dead horse here.

Oh , hold that, we’ve scored.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

With KLP and Kelleher instead of Diouf and Valdi, we probably concede none of those goals. But that really shouldn't have been necessary with the lineup Sunderland put out

Anyways, well done Wilson

How is a bloke standing between Wilson and the keeper appealing for offside 🤣
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

We’ve been ineptly poor for weeks. With little going forward and very shaky at the back. After an initial bounce start of season we’ve looked very ordinary lately. No way on recent displays we make Europe with what is a our best squad to date in the PL
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

We need to do a Burnley in the 2nd half... But actually win the game
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Amazing touch by Anthony
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

This is stronger than I think anyone expected while Sunderland have clearly prioritised the league. The selection isn't the issue.
It's not stronger than I expected, so not anyone. As I said beforehand, this is the shortest route into Europe.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Decent goal that
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Great save but Wilson should've scored.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Igor looks incredibly passive tonight. Even before we condeded. Not sure if it's the presence of Wilson alongside him or what, but it's a bit worrying
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Not that it has much impact on our goals conceded... but their goalkeeper is having a brilliant game.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Mad game. Could end up any score. Valdimarsson and Diouf can only get better (if they stay on)
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Dont like how players literally leave the ball on the touchline to grab a ball 10 yards up the line on a cone, run back and kick it off.
That is obvious delaying restart.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

3-3 then Hakon saves 3 penalties...
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

We look like conceding every time we have a set piece in the final third! Our concentration levels and decision-making are appalling.

Confident we can score twice in the second half, but no idea what that first half was about.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Wyf is wrong with our keeper
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

I'm not even angry. Whats the point getting wound up. A goal has given us a glimer. But foo k me. That first half 🤷🏻🤷🏻
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

We’ve actually looked ok going forward but giving Talbi acres has been biggest issue. Defending on left atrocious
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Quarter-arsed display at best.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

KLP and Schade on at HT and we’ll crush them.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Can’t even blame the ref for this one ☹️
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Valdi. coming out of goal twice didn’t help defensively when they scored 2 goals.

Still a big chance to get back into this.
One more goal for us,and Sunderland will start to crumble.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Hakon, awful. Giving people a go in goal doesn’t work, hate it. If you’re reserve goalie just take the money and accept it. Diouf awful defensively and his crossing has been horrendous too. Sunderland second team cutting through us every time they go forward. Keith needs to do some management here because I don’t think we are set up at all well, and for whatever reason we aren’t trying as hard as Sunderland which you cannot accept
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

I mean that took some effort to get in a 3-0 hole with these respective line ups. They are just going through the motions
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Please Keith get Diouf and Igor off at half time, and bring on Keano and Schade.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Embarassing defending. And sloppy in possession for each of the goals. Awful.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

The biggest worry for me at the moment isn’t so much the setbacks but how we’re reacting to them. It doesn’t seem to take much to send us into a complete tailspin.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Damsgaard does not look fit. We need more control in midfield and increase the tempo. Sunderland are running rings round us.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Let's get KLP, Schade and Dango on and at least finish the game with the 11 we should have started with. Do West Ham do 90-day refunds?
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Bees seem to regularly adopt the approach that they have to be complete rubbish for at least half an hour then start playing.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Pitiful really. Thiago needs a long holiday and Valdimarsson and Diouf having a nightmare.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

HT Hook Hakon and dump Diouf. Give it a go against their reserves.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Why do we always struggle to head the ball to a teammate? It always seems like the players panic to just clear the ball.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

The club should refund the fans for that first half.
 

Sunderland 3 - 2 (Wilson, Thiago) Brentford - EFL Cup R4

Relax, we’ve got this 4-3. Fleetwood next at home. 👍🏼🤥
