I’d take this. If the priority is to preserve a place in a division over winning a major trophy at Wembley we’re putting money over memories. That’s not what life’s about #lufc

The big question this raises is what were you doing in Spoons at 11.30am? Or were you just walking past *side eyes*

I look forward to hearing the boundaries of that leeway

Yes that’s the kind of impartiality we expect from the Beeb πŸ˜‰

Graham Smyth covered this recently. Bench players have to be able to make a fast impact. Justin, Gruev & Bijol have all done this. Sunday is important, losing three consecutive home games would be unsettling & the anxious end of the fan base have been sobbing their hearts out since last night #lufc

Agreed. Very frustrating. The grappling in the box seems fair game, like VAR just don’t know what to do with it

Defo a pen on Struijk, VAR are just bottle jobs with this stuff. The Ampadu hand ball was very different to the City one, Amps moved his forearm towards the ball and played it. VAR had to flag it and ref had to give it unfortunately. Was a clear pen just not the clearest in the game

Yes, poor from Atwell there but we didn’t look like scoring in 47 minutes, I’m not sure another five would have made much difference. You just wish that penalty against Pascal had been given so Sunderland would be forced into being more positive, could have made the difference

Yeah that’s fair. Their β€˜game management’ was as snide as it was effective

You watched that game and think we have significantly better options on the bench?!. Tonight’s side has performed strongly over the last three months against different forms of opposition including much better than Sunderland. Yes an off night tonight. But your hindsight vibes are strong & tedious

This group have played two games in close proximity before and their performance levels have held up fine. In fact that consistency has helped us. First unexpectedly poor performance since November and we’re back to the old favourites of subs and rotation, deary deary me. Get a grip son #lufc

…. this feels more about the players just not performing at their recent level. Maybe their exertions on Saturday v City took the edge of their performance tonight. But this was fundamentally the same group of players playing in the same formation #lufc

#lufc Team selection whingers… Ten of the eleven tonight started the last two home wins v Fulham and Forest. Stach for Okafor the change. And folk have been bitching about Okafor. Ok, so you could have Nmecha, who you dropping? All the midfielders have been performing. Gnonto not pushed his claim….

Atwell added on 12 mins tbf. We didn’t have the zest or ingenuity to prize Sunderland open. That’s on us πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ #lufc

#lufc Perspective….. first *really* unexpected outcome since Villa (H) back in November. We had to be due one. Sunderland defended and battled resolutely. Need to channel the frustration of this to see off Norwich, get a good QF draw then kick on
