Rant aside I’m really disappointed he’s changed a winning team after we put in such a good performance after looking shot for confidence for so long. Decisions like that aren’t doing Dodds any favours at all. Really can’t understand why we’re playing so many long balls when the pitch is drenched and perfect to play quick, short passing football like they’ve done both times they’ve scored.
 
Classic this season Sunderland. Toothless in the 9 position. Losing the ball cheaply, no player covering breaks when it happens. Roberts has been their most creative midfielder. They come to life when he gets it. He’s been arguably our 3rd worst player this season.

Great first 10 mins then it all changes. Some really crap decisions in possession. Looking to play through the middle far too much when Mundle is in acres. Roberts way off the pace, touch has deserted him. If Ekwah and Adil dont start getting their heads up we wont score. Calm down lads man, it doesnt always have to be forced.

ONien having a poor game as well. Styles looking good though. Would rather see him in midfield though but Hjelde scares me silly.

I would make a couple of changes now. Roberts off for Clarke and play Mundle right. Ekwah off for Rigg.

Agree with all the Roberts comments on here. Abysmal. Lost the ball for their first goal. Lost it again leading to their attack prior to the 2nd goal then took himself out of play at the throw in which led to the 2nd. He should get subbed at half time.

Absolutely fuming with that first half, standards at that club need to be sorted in the summer. If we get heckingbottom as manager we might as well kiss goodbye to next season too, he’s not what we need.

he has been terrible. **** knows why… but he’s dropped so far it’s sad to see.

Needs switching at half time. Probs Ba, can’t believe Clarke is ready

Dodds loves a needless tinker. This lack of consistency in our performances is painful, hopefully the new head coach puts an end to it.

Needless tinker exactly. Roberts not fit not in the game Mundle not ready. Adil and rigg gave the energy against Cardiff. Saying that about selection but few players coasting. Ekwah having a stinker

Miles off it. We're going to have this problem for the remaining games. We look on the beach and the rest have stuff to play for
