Two games where we haven’t been particularly out played, we’ve just not been good enough at all & have defended appallingly. A display like that isn’t one of a side who deserves top 2 #SAFC.”
@joshuakell73: “Tactically, that was an absolute shambles. And it’s becoming a theme. We have a decent shape even if we aren’t playing perfectly then suddenly we make four subs at once and lose any semblance of a game plan. Too much reliance on scoring from crosses. Big time bottle job #SAFC”
@Ian_Crow3: “Group of bottle jobs. Didn't look like getting back into it and they give away automatics. Poor performance and worse yet Blackpool and Hull up next. Play-offs only hope now and that's a long shot in our form and of those around us. Another season in League 1? #SAFC #HawayTheLads”
@SunderlandafcI: “At what point are people going to realise that this is on the players? 3 years running and the same set of players have bottled it. It’s no coincidence. #SAFC”
