Dear Sunderland Fans, The first two goals were not something you regularly see. The first one found Johnno chasing and he got his reward with the goal and then the second saw an incredible bounce beat the keeper. After that I think the game was pretty equal; we weren’t fantastic but we were in the game and we needed to pick our moments. I was disappointed with the penalty decision, I thought it was clear-cut but it was not given. There were lots of emotions running throughout the game and after the incidents we had a number of half chances right at the end of the first half and that seemed to change the atmosphere of the game. We conceded after we were trying to get forward and score and then we conceded from a set-piece, which is not good from us. There were just too many mistakes. We were hurrying and trying to push forward, but we need to be better than that and be more patient with our passing. It was a perfect start; especially after last weekend’s result, the early goal was great but it was not to be. We need to move on now, start with recovery tomorrow and make sure we perform better on Sunday against Aston Villa. Thanks for your support, Gus Poyet
