We asked you what you think has been going wrong for Sunderland so far this season, with the Black Cats currently bottom of the Premier League.
Here are some of your comments:
Denise: Apart from the Bournemouth game, we've actually been playing some brilliant football. Our biggest problem has been struggling to consistently score goals and this has led to frustration and a loss of concentration.

Steven: Lack of experience in the summer transfer market and injuries haven't helped, but I'm genuinely worried we will be back in the Championship next season.
Robin: We should only have qualified for Europe if we intended to strengthen the squad. We can't cope with games every two to three days. We don't have any strikers or game-makers. The manager is showing teams in Europe how good he is when he gets the sack from Sunderland.
Stephen: Our woeful display against Bournemouth has sent us into panic mode. We've had some tough opponents and handled them well. We do struggle to create goalscoring opportunities and this unsettles us. Our defence isn't the rock it was last season and, again, this unsettles us. If we can keep our composure I believe we'll come good again.
Lucy: The problem for Sunderland right now is Chemsdine Talbi not starting. We all know that we want to play the strongest team, but our best winger is sitting on the bench. Regis le Bris knows what Talbi can do so why is he still on the bench? Yes, he was rumoured to be going, but he stayed so maybe he should possibly get game time.
