Think we can safely say Le Bris is better than Farke ...

Nobody has pressured their keeper at all.

Regardless of whose fault it was or wasn’t that was the poorest game of football I’ve seen in a long time. Sunderland came to bully us, and it worked. The nerves were evident from minute one. This season is far from over.

Absolutely shocking. And 100% on Farke, no time for his deluded fanboys making excuses. Have to hope West Ham lose tomorrow.

Congrats to Sunderland, deserved the win.

Garbage from us and this is down to Farke, and the two knobheads Ampadu and Darlow put the tin hat on it.

I am furious
Its one thing constant draw after draw
Its one thing having these hard luck losses against city
But if we seriously can not even beat the likes of burnley or sunderland we have NO PLACE being in the premier league
Really P/d Off
Also DCL's purple patch (which i said months ago thats all it is, he had it every year or two for everton) is well and truly over
And we are now in the CAN NOT HIT A BARN DOOR AND SCORE IF OUR LIVES DEPENDED ON IT category which we drop into every several months
Every team below us will be pumped by this result
Not happy!
There is greatness and then there is D C L ...

If Farke mentions possession I hope someone runs in and kicks him in the balls

Maybe they’re hung over from Saturday

We get a break with the fa cup. Then go again.

It’s not doom and gloom. Just a disappointing result.

Was a performance that reminded me of the snoozeball performances of the past.

Too safe a lineup.

Then a safe style of play.

Was only going one way.

Poor.

Many poor performances as well

Fair play Sunderland given the injuries, really well organised.

Imagine if we'd of had this attacking intent before going behind?

In their half constantly..... Danger constantly....

Wanted him gone at the end of last season.... Harsh but he isn't a prem level manager, reacts.... Isn't proactive.... Doesnt seize opportunities... He's fine when we're a dominant side in a league like at Norwich.... but not a manager who can change it up to suit an opponent.... Doesn't take risks.... Timid... Why we haven't capitalised on when we've taken the lead so many times.

Le bris away at Leeds makes the first move and bring on players.... Farke then brings on one..... We go behind farke throws the kitchen sink at them and we dominate.

This was a night to dominate.... Farke sets us up with gruev like we're playing city. Fear.... Don't know what it is but it doesn't capitalise on opportunities I know that.

Earlier in the season when he was about to be sacked was when he changed tactics to be defensive.... So many people were calling for a back 5.... Only when his hand was forced did he change it.

Get rid even if we stay up.
