Ed’s Notice [Phil]: Hello, John. Thanks to your letter.
I feel the most recent worldwide break has come at a helpful time for Sunderland and though it was disappointing to wrap up our newest spherical of league video games with a loss, I really feel there’s much more to be constructive than destructive about, and I didn’t see our loss at Previous Trafford as a calamity — not least as a result of we responded encouragingly at 2-0 down and continued to try to discover a method again into the sport.
Everybody — followers, coaches and non-internationally capped gamers alike — can hopefully use the pause in league motion as an opportunity to recharge and take inventory forward of the following league sport towards Wolves, and I’m certain Régis Le Bris can be areas for potential enchancment as nicely.
Tons to stay up for!

Pricey Roker Report,
The worldwide break has most likely come on the proper time for Sunderland and driving again from Previous Trafford on Saturday, there was a tinge of frustration together with the realisation that I nonetheless don’t imagine Régis Le Bris is aware of his most well-liked or greatest beginning eleven.
It exhibits up within the away fixtures — though, to the gamers’ credit score, in 4 video games away, we’ve got two clear sheets and 4 factors however just one aim. The squad as we all know was overhauled in the summertime, and a few have but to search out their toes totally in a tricky league, however the indicators in the principle are promising.

It’s very a lot a studying curve for all and for the primary time this season at Previous Trafford, we tactically acquired it fallacious, which price us the sport.
The break will permit evaluation for the membership on the right way to method Wolves and the upcoming fixtures.
Now we have loads to be constructive about as followers. Ha’method the lads!

Ed’s Notice [Phil]: Hello, Mark. Thanks for getting in contact.
Though I wouldn’t go as far as to say that Régis Le Bris doesn’t know his greatest beginning eleven, I might agree that he didn’t fairly get issues proper towards Manchester United and in his defence, he supplied a really stylish and well-thought out response after the sport, which was to his credit score.
For Le Bris and the vast majority of the gamers, each sport is a studying expertise and an opportunity to search out out what works and what doesn’t.
After all, we received’t get it proper on a regular basis, however so long as we be certain that errors don’t grow to be routine and the gamers retain their focus, losses needn’t be disastrous — and the Lads have already proven that they’re able to bouncing again from disappointing outcomes.
