*~*~* Sunderland v West Brom match thread *~*~*


Fooling ourselves if we think we are going up.

We’ll struggle to be in the top six at Christmas.
Seems like a tad of an overreaction with your second point. Individual mistakes costings us massively against cov/millwall and yes we weren’t great today but playing another team chasing top 6 and they turned up to pack their box and play for a draw
 
Righto. We created nowt all night. Best chance was Rigg’s and that was after Watson went off.

It’s not an indictment of Watson’s ability. He was just ineffective and offered very little.
He caused the most problems in the first half, had the most shots and the most crosses. He was very unlucky with the cross that the lad cleared from the 6 yard line - that could of gone anywhere.

Way ahead of Roberts in end product, but yeah he was "ineffective and offered very little"
 
Some moaners on here.

Another point. Another game unbeaten. Played well, just didn't create enough chances. Couple of inches the other way and Roberts scores. Keep the faith

Depends how you categorise ‘played well’ really. West Brom let us have the ball and allowed us to pass it in front of them. We had no quality or real ideas to break them down. Set pieces were dreadful and their keeper didn’t have a meaningful thing to do all night.
 
We haven’t won in five.

Teams with ambitions to go up don’t go on runs like that.

It will be no wins in six come Friday.
Ipswich did last season but aye, doesn’t happen.

Every team has a bad run, if this is ours we’re laughing. Remains to be seen whether it is or not but we’ll soon know.
 
Hard game. West Brom came to defend and I think a few of our players wary of cards before Friday.
Yes weve dropped out of the top two. We are still up there. Still unbeaten in how many?
 
Usual meltdown on here to start. We played well, dominated from start to finish, they parked the bus. 7th place and they had no ambition whatsoever, f***ing pathetic. Extremely unlucky there, but hopefully Friday be a better game.
Behave , we had no idea how to break them down , and when we got a set piece roberts was pathetic on them
