Improvement Yet Again

Is this a wind up? I really do despair at some of the knackers who follow Sunderland like.

How can you be pleased with that?

Pass it neatly until we arrive near the box and crumble. Ad nauseum.

Because we've gone away from home in the Premier League, bossed the game and been very unlucky not to win. Good quick edit by the way - showed your colours with the second, deleted comment.
 
Was it improvement or was it just the fact that West Ham are absolute gash?

In that case you could argue no team ever plays well as the opposition is poor.

The way I saw it is we passed the ball and kept the ball extremely well. We spent large portions of the game in their half. We harassed their players at every opportunity and we had over 20 attempts on goal.

We made West Ham look poor.

We were the better side away to Villa and we pretty much matched Chelsea.

We bossed the game because they had no strikers and an injury depleted team. If we didn't boss that game we'd be in serious trouble.
We deserved not to win because we didn't come close to scoring other than one shot hitting the bar.
 
getting beat 1-0 at Hull is awful , 4-0 at Swansea is awful ..

away draws versus our relegation rivals will get us there in the end
 
Good to see out with a playing style, which is also good to watch and somewhat effective. For me the wide players are just letting us down. Borini, Giacc and Johnson all poor.
 
I'm happy with the way the passed the ball but nobody was having a shot around the box, it was passed around like a hot potato, if you don't shoot you don't score, if you don't get the cross into the box you don't have the chance to score they did very few of these. Not happy with the final third, terrible.
 
So West Ham were played off the park yet for us it was only a point gained and not 2 dropped :confused:

It happens. Teams regularly don't get what they deserve. How many deflected shots have we seen go in our goal? Yet our's all spurned out for a corner.

Their keeper made a few very good saves and we should have had a penalty.

Wallow in your negativity if you like but what I saw today was very positive.

All true, but we gained two points from those games, not enough to save us from the inevitable.

Well if that's your opinion you're entitled to it; don't see why the rest of us should bother to debate it with you. Ridiculous.
