Might end up being a good thing that their caretaker is doing so well. Undoubtedly they’ll give him the full time job now but will he have the managerial experience and ability to navigate an automatics challenge later in the season?

Ipswich are looking ominous now. Unbeaten in 6 and will go 2nd if they win their game in hand. Would expect them to be our main rivals for the title. Middlesbrough looked good last night but very frail defensively. Stoke and Preston I’d expect to fall away. Bristol City seem a bit streaky.

I’ve never heard of a players getting a suspended sentence on a red card before. Hilariously on the nose corruption.

It’s nice to see him doing well for us again. Seems like a really nice guy. Always enjoy his holiday snaps on Instagram (and all the other players rinsing him in the comments), goes to some fun places.

What a result. The way we have turned the flow of this game last 15 minutes is incredible.

Mason Clarke is not at it at all. Don’t think he’s made a single positive contribution yet.

I think we lose this now. That is ridiculous from Thomas.

They’re playing well tbf to them, really pinned us back for 20 minutes of that second half. They do look very vulnerable when we get in their half though. Would be surprised if it finishes 2-1. Imperative is to not concede early second half.

Ref gives a foul every time they fall over

Us being top of the league and this only thing to moan about must be killing you. Thin pickings this year!

Thomas Asante on the left first half vs Sheffield United really didn’t work.

I think we'd struggle to get in true Premier League quality while in the Champ. Think it would perhaps be more sensible to bring in some experienced loans, who we won't be committed to for years, to help see us over the line.

Sometimes at this level you simply have to take a risk and make changes with the midweek game in mind even if it may impact the current game. 3-2 up vs 10 men with a game away at 2nd in league on Tuesday I think it’s fair enough to go for the calculated risk that you’re ok to rest a few players...

I must have completely blacked out the start of last season because I don’t remember Sunderland being top after 15 games at all. Mad that we could lose the next 3 and would still be in the autos.

Thought we showed why we’re the best team in the league from the 40th-70th minute.

Half time came at the wrong time for us as we were really building up a head of steam. We still look so vulnerable to the counter though. Think we can win but also wouldn’t be surprised if we conceded another couple.

This ref is a complete twat

Fucking shit defending. Same problems every time they come forward.

Barely had a look in since Mepham faked an injury and killed our momentum
