    Also, this is why you make subs at the end of the game. 4 minutes of added time, ball was in play for about 90 seconds of them. It never gets added back on at this level, disgrace.

    Probably the better team till the last 10 mins or so. We’re every bit as good as Sheffield United.

    His passing is normally his strength as well, I actually thought his touch was poor tonight - like he wasn't getting it out his feet to be able to play his passes

    Time wasting ****ers 2 bookings for it in last minute or two, sad sacks of ****. I look forward to watching them get relegated from the Premier league next season. ****e team ****e club, We showed them up for what they are over the 90.

    Three things cost us:

    1. defensive subs when Sheff Utd were sitting back and letting us attack
    2. Roberts missing the pen
    3. Alese and Rigg not defending properly.

    We’ve deserved a point here mind. Arguably the better side. Roberts miss a killer for us. Has to be replaced him like. Can’t be a worse striker of the ball in the Championship than Roberts

    Feel like we got a lot of results earlier in the season when our form was iffy. A lot of 50/50s went out way.

    Rather than fixing our form it seems our luck has run out now.

    Need to turn it around.

    Great battle today, they just edged it in the end. Still up there with them though so don’t rip the team apart too much …

    Proud gets you the best placed loser. We need to make some serious decisions and be better. Otherwise top 6 might be an ask at this rate.

    That's not me being funny either. It's being genuinely serious.

    Sheff Utd played more like a league 1 team than a team who's just been relegated from the premier for me. Kicking, fouling and cheating. Yes Roberts penalty was ****ing **** and the final ball was poor at times but no one will give them a bigger fright at home than we have and that's with 3 first team players out

    I make comments when they are due. Not just because I am a Sunderland fan on a Sunderland forum.

    We need to start having a proper conversation otherwise top 6 is going to drift. It's been coming

    Great effort from the team, outdone with a sucker punch, but we certainly gave them a good game.

    He played pretty well I thought. Shouldn’t be on pens though. We all knew where it was going.

    We need another midfielder capable of playing right now. Rigg has been so poor recently (he's still quality no disputing that) but if Aleksic isn't trusted to play then we simply need another body in there. Neil was poor tonight as well, think the positional switch to CB heavily contributed to that though but still it wasn't good enough.

    Jobe can only do so much.
