They are first to every loose ball and every ricochet
Not one player is anticipating the play

Fair play to Sunderland - their pressing and energy have been incredible. To be honest we’ve done ok just to live with that.

It’s been a cracking game to watch, just annoying we couldn’t manage it.

Let’s stay positive- this is SO much better to watch than 6-8months ago!

Watching on the Sunderland stream - and they can't believe how many times we've given the ball away in the 2nd half!!

There we are. A sympathiser.

Funny that because other teams have coped fine with them of late.

It’s more that we are clearly improving. Sorry if I think that’s good thing

They've only won 1 of their previous 8 games.

Its not "fair play" we've thrown away 3 points yet again and even when they've scored their third we've not even attempted to attack. It's boring and predictable.

There's no plan B, there's not even a response from going behind.

 

[Blackpooljack]

Luke is going to be furious tonight thats for sure.

 

[bakajack]

Key gives away another daft free kick, dribbles past two and then tries to go past a third and loses it and brings down the other player. The pass was on to put Ronald 1v1 with the full back but he just doesn't look up when he goes into "Messi mode"

 

[TheLoneRanger]

2 mins to go, and Grimes is fvcking about in our 1/3 of the pitch!!

 

[monmouth]

Well this has all been a bit disappointing.

Oh, and what Grimes is doing now is utter shite. He’s killing the whole team.

 

[DanWelsh]

Genuinely fucking pathetic.

 

[MrSwerve]

93:15 on the clock, Vig looking what to do, I thought I'm going to batter you if you play this short...guess what he did.

There's just no common sense in modern football.

lol. The ‘we need to’s’ will be flowing.

It’s the Martinwanger playbook.
Beta version.
Appalling stuff.
