Sunderland fans spot ‘big problem’ with Wilson Isidor after what happened vs Oxford
Sunderland fans have been left questioning Wilson Isidor’s commitment to the club after what they saw against Oxford United.
Habib Diarra’s first half penalty earned Sunderland victory over their Championship opponents to progress to the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Manager Regis Le Bris rotated his squad for the tie, with Isidor starting up-front for the first time since defeat against Manchester City in December.
Brian Brobbey has been preferred over Isidor in recent weeks, with the 25-year-old linked with a move away from the Stadium of Light in the summer.

Wilson Isidor ‘will be one of the first to go in the summer’
Isidor failed to take his opportunity against Oxford, with the striker substituted after 64 minutes for Eliezer Mayenda at the Kassam Stadium.
During his time on the pitch, Isidor missed one big chance, only had 12 touches, and won zero of his aerial duels.
Many Sunderland supporters believe Mayenda did more during his shorter period on the pitch, with the 20-year-old making his first appearance in four matches.
Isidor’s performance left fans feeling that the Frenchman is not Premier League quality, as the club look well positioned to remain in the top flight next season.
One fan said that Isidor is “not good enough” with another claiming he has a “big attitude problem.”

Sunderland backed for ruthless Regis Le Bris move
Sunderland’s form has dropped off lately, but the club are still 12 points above the bottom three in the Premier League table in 11th place.
Whilst Le Bris has done an excellent job at the Stadium of Light, pressure on the 50-year-old could increase if their form does not pick up again.
It has been suggested that Sunderland could look at replacing Le Bris as manager if they do not challenge for the European places or go far in the FA Cup in the remainder of the season.
Le Bris took over the Black Cats in the Championship, and secured the club’s promotion back to the Premier League for the first time in eight years.
Sunderland have work to do if they are to qualify for Europe next season, with fifth-placed Chelsea currently eight points ahead in the table.
