Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Huddersfield Town FC - Tuesday 26th August 2025 - KO 19:45

This is garbage

 

Nah. Neil and ELF should be absolutely dominant but the game has passed them by.

 

Looks very much a team of strangers which it is, mind they’ve made ten changes too so it’s not an excuse, that gooch looks canny mind

 

I get why we are playing tonight but it really doesn't suit us in possession - especially when we have no pace in the wider areas

Been so easy for Huddersfield to defend in this half

 

Think a few of our players are on a different wave length and quality level but that’s doesn’t run through the entire side

difficult situation for what is a bunch of strangers really

 

Ref looked like he was about to book Enzo there for a complete accident! Huddersfield players doing what every league 1 and championship team did and tried to get him sent off!

 

What is the point in having wingers if their not beating a man or getting the ball into the box?

 

It’s hurting us with neither dropping deep. Would be so much better with Mayenda - but would probably be better with Ogunsuyi too

 

That's actually why a cup run ciyod be important for us this season, only way some will keep getting minutes. We need a lot of these boys to get plenty minutes before the AFCON (obviosuly we still have time yo sign more)

 

Few players not showing up tonight.

 

The problem isn’t the middle of the park imo.

 

The west ham game was a bit of anomaly cos we've been absolute ****e at home for months..create nothing, boring football.

 

Nice to see our second team playing like they want to be here….

 

Can't do much when they have a spare man against you every time and neither of the forwards are dropping. Then you look wide and Roberts is twiddling his thumbs doing **** all and Rigg isn't natural to the position.

 

I’d be inclined to get one of the strikers off, get Rigg in the middle, Roberts on the right and Aleksik on the left

 

It's everywhere I think. Been a really poor poor half of football. Created absolutely nothing and Huddlesfild look the more dangerous. Midfield creating nothing. Forwards isolated and the fullbacks genuinely looks poor.

 

Is Isidor allergic to attempting to challenge for a header? His pretend attempts are blatant.

 

Change of system needed, at the very least

 

HT 0-1
