Some very telling comments from the Sunderland fans that could have come from us, too defensive-too many defensive players-tactics wrong-poor selection of strikers-players brought in not changing the performance. I would also add that when their behind the tv shows what we often saw, a mangerment team just sitting there just letting them get on with it. Their fans are now getting to see life with Poyet and just to add 1 last thing they've got the problem we have, Poyet can't find a striker to score the goals they need, he couldn't do it in 2 seasons at the Amex and I doubt he'll do it at Sunderland.

I think the Sunderland fans are missing the obvious. What they need to do is increase their playing budget 40% year on year.
That's what we did and Poyet transformed the squad and football we were playing

One of my friends is a big Sunderland fan and he is laying the blame firmly at the feet of the players, who are simply not good enough and cannot be bothered to earn their inflated pay packets.
You won't find many Sunderland supporters who'd disagree. But these are the wasters who went whinging to our owner and chief executive about Di Canio early this season, and instead of telling them to sling their hook they were allowed to win the day. The subsequent mess is the consequence of backing the rabble over the manager.

I think it has already. Watch his interviews after last night. "We cannot defend, we cannot pass, we cannot control the bol, etc., etc".
Well Gus, you're the head coach. He did at least say that it is his responsibility.

Gus's comments were spot on, they were completely owned by Spurs last night their passing, defending and general ball control was woeful. A manager can coach them, but if they are not good enough, there is only so much a manager can change that.

Totally agree with all that. Ultimately you have been let down by an absolute shower of a team, that will probably cost two managers their jobs.
Most Sunderland fans accept the team is not good enough, any manager would have taken them down.
However, it is widely believed, most of the squad have a 40% wage drop clause in their contracts, so they may well keep a lot of the team together, so you'd think they would be strong candidates to bounce back, with a few new replacements. Its their strikers that have really let them down.
