Would people have rather the game have opened like this, or be dull 0-0 still?
A dull 0-0 seeing as Sunderland now have all of the momentum, all of the confidence, whereas we will be panicking. There's no way with our quality of defence we won't give them plenty of chances, and with the way we've attacked this season chances will be few and far between.
Hopefully we hold on for a draw but it'll probably be a loss. We're the weakest team in the division by some distance at the moment, we certainly look it, and worryingly we're not improving at all. Its not even a case of gelling, its mostly the team from last year.
We also have a shocking mentality. How many times have we thrown games away now, Everton, here, Stoke, to a much lesser extent Man U and Chelsea.
