That’s what disappointed me about yesterday’s capitulation.
At home this year, Sunderland have conceded points to Watford, Plymouth, Hull, and Stoke.
I really thought we could grab a point or three if we had the right tactics, attitude, and defensive concentration.

I agree, there’s too much acceptance that we’re going to lose to the likes of Burnley & Sunderland, we’re sleep walking into relegation, it’s 3 from 7 now.
When they interviewed Slot yesterday, he said, you have to go all in from the start. Riza doesn’t we holdback by which time it’s too late.

Portsmouth pack out their ground every week and they're noisy and very close to the pitch. I'm sure it's a lot more intimidating to play there than at a half empty Cardiff city stadium

Worse still, the manager and team write the game off before it starts.

Pun intended?
As his lack of pace (aged 46) was found out early on in the Championship, what can you do? Sell him? Dump him in the reserves? Convert him into a ball-playing centre back?
