Match thread Sunderland v Millwall

Now I'm even more pissed off.

 

[Lion-in-exile]

That 2nd half was as bad as we have played all season!!

 

[robbo555]

That Fleming miss changed the game, poor 2nd half, still 6th and we move on.

Completely different game if that goes in. Flemming should now be sold to Charlton for 45p.

Harris Out

 

[‘ArryBoy]

Cresswell and Long errors caused all 3 goals. Bart and hutch MUST play next week

 

[Kryan Bing]

That Flemming miss changed the game, poor 2nd half, still 7th and we move on.

You got away with that one.

Can’t believe Hutch never started. That was a fucking woeful display.

Harris Out

Gillingham are getting royally bummed by Salford at the moment, so he might well be.

 

[bazzwall]

Far too easy for Sunderland, why Rowett fails to motivate the team is annoying and continues to happen.

 

[PurleyLion]

Hutch back for next game.

Three defensive errors and a lack of composure and a game we should have got something from goes down the pan.

Badly need a central midfielder who can close down opponents, not get caught in possession and can create, which rules out Billy.

I know he’s an acquired taste but I think Evans has the ability to create, perhaps he deserves a chance.

On the plus side, I thought there were signs of our playing more controlled football and as Flemming and Vogl integrate more I think we’ll improve.

Bradshaw worked his socks off, linking well with others. If only he had some more support.

Should Bennett start?

A load of questions and I don’t know the answers

 

[Lion1964]

Very poor 2nd half from us. Had our chances to put this game to bed in the first half. Woeful defending again from cresswell for their third goal but the game was done by then. Long too easily beaten for the second.
We looked very uninspired second half dropped off the pace and looked a poor side with no cutting edge

O well onto next week

 

[Rhino]

Just set up all wrong today. If we're going to have Long in the team to smack it upfield, we either need a target man up front with quick runners in behind or play two up front so someone can pick up on a flick. Lumping up to Bradshaw on his own will never work!

 

[PurleyLion]

Far too easy for Sunderland, why Rowett fails to motivate the team is annoying and continues to happen.

Motivation won’t stop players making individual mistakes!

 

[Millwall-84]

You got away with that one.

Think that Cunt with the pubic hair Simms who scored their goal at the end dropped us down a place.

 

[Poplar Lion]

They were never 3-0 better than us. Flemming miss plus 2 cleared off the line. That's the difference. Those chances have to go in.

 

[robbo555]

People on social media genuinely calling for Rowett to be sacked.

BBC report
After an insipid, scrappy first-half, Sunderland turn on the style to beat an in-form Millwall side at the Stadium of Light.

Had Millwall's Zian Flemming buried a sitter at the end of the first-half we might be looking at a different game...

...he didn't, Sunderland regrouped, reset and came out firing - scoring three second-half goals to take control.

Just a point off the top six. Three-nil is harsh on Millwall though, who showed plenty of promise.

 

[Kryan Bing]

Think that Cunt with the pubic hair Simms who scored their goal at the end dropped us down a place.

Yes, it was that 3rd goal. Oh well...after a long day they're coming home.

I sort of want to know whose pubes you've seen that are like Simms' hair but I am frightened to ask.

 

[Millwall-84]

Fair play to our lot who travelled up to watch that, by the way, all those Sunderland fans and all i could hear was Wall singing.
