And we aren’t winning so are these managers getting it right?

Rusyn looks good and needs games. Pembele will be quality when fit. Seelt, again injured early looked good and dropped. Jobe has done well in stages.

All ifs and buts. Not one has made a consistent impact. That's wild given the number of players we signed

Again. It needs time. Not a few days on the training ground. It might be short term pain for long term gains.

Who the **** knows, let's just win on Friday

Hope so. Zero confident. We need to turn it round though. Unrest is high.
 
Wow his accent being brought up. Suprised the north east was so full of precious elocution teachers

It feels like when we appointed Parkinson except the fact we had real reasons to be worried about Parkinson.
The hatred levels towards Beale are so weird
 
see i disagree i would say rusyn earned his chance and he got dropped i would say seelt earned his chance and he got dropped,
I am far from convincee by Seelt. He looks some way off to me. Did well against Leeds, but otherwise a bit sloppy. Rusyn, yes, harsh today, but I understood it. We do though understand his situation and who knows what it is like week to week. I would play him though.

They haven’t been fit. So that’s not recruitment that’s bad luck.

That’s a fact. We sign Messi and he’s injured for 3 months he isn’t a **** signing. He’s Lionel Messi.

As they have gotten fit absolutely Mayenda, Seelt and Rusyn have shown bits.

Yeah it will. Same as people got pissed off with Lee Johnson and his waffle. Look how it's ended up for him. Posting seminar offers on linkedin
 
His decision apparently. Jobe is a striker. So he picked him instead.

Jobe played as a striker. He made some absolutely brilliant runs behind their defence and won quite a few aerial duals. Closed them down well at times - led to the Aouchiche chance iirc because of his tenacity in that position.

Not sure any of our forwards would have actually lead the line better than him tonight.

Again, think it was a cracking match between two very evenly matched teams. Their fans I spoke to afterwards all agreed that a draw would be a fair result.

To be fair their fitness issues and injury problems is how we end up signing some of these lads though. It’s a risk we take and part of the reason they aren’t playing at a higher level

Cockney being the key word. There are cockneys that follow Sunderland m. It means nowt. Organising a team, making the right choices. They matter.

Ok mate no worries. I think it does matter. The connect with the fans gives you the benefit of the doubt. The straight talking etc

I don’t think Hemir would do any worse than Jobe playing as the striker. As long as I have a hole in my arse Jobe is not a 9.

Interesting. I thought they were better.

More shots on target.
More shots at goal
More dangerous attacks
More concerns
4X the XG
Patto made a couple of cracking saves.

Thought they were not at the races and out of form but we were there for the taking.

You just said he called out Adil, now you want straight talking. He said it was poor defending - it was. Why is the thing I need reassurance about. That’s about how he organises his side. That matters.
 
Imagine paying around 2m for a striker and him finally breaking into the squad and scoring his first goal hes randomly dropped to play from Bellinghams own words a box to box midfielder in his position.

What kind of impact do people think that has for him and what message does that send to the squad?

Its an absolute shambles
