Possibly the worst performance I have seen since Lee Cattermole decide to wheel out a conveyor belt of shit in the championship.

Love the lad and that but is it time to start reevaluating what some of us think he will become?

Every time he plays against a higher league opponent he has been bossed, long gone are the days of defence splitting passes.

Or is it just a case of it being a fine line between calm and composed v being lackadaisical and unable to control and pass?
 

He’s ridiculous overrated by a lot of our fans.

he would be massively exposed in the premier league.

The way some people go on here when he has a decent game ya fucker you’d think they were on about pirlo

Very rarely has a good game against a good team either. All of his so called brilliant performances come against absolute shite

Looked asleep in the first half hour, I mean like he'd been drugged. Very strange performance. The managers tactics aren't helping matters.
 
He had a poor game but they all did. I was amazed at how a side 4th in the league looked so short of confidence and ideas. We looked like a relegation side. The players literally couldn’t do the basics. That’s as an embarrassing performance as I’ve seen from a Sunderland side in ages.

They looked like they couldn't be arsed to me, that's what's sets dan aside from Rigg today and jobe at the very least has physicality. If Dan can't control a ball or pass it 5 yards, he enters Roberts levels of pointlessness.
 
Honestly our entire midfield is weak as piss and not fit for the tactics we employ. They rarely win posession themselves to start attacks and they struggle to make incisive forward passes when we are on the attack. Neil's the slightly more effective of the 3 as he's sometimes able to dribble his way out of trouble at least, but generally we seem to ask the wingers to do literally all of the work when attacking and it's all become very ineffective.
