Matty Hewitt and Joe Ramage sat down to chew the fat on Sunderland's 2-1 defeat to Swansea City this weekend.
The Black Cats were poor in the first-half against Luke Williams' side, with the visitors 2-0 up at the interval thanks to a brace from Brazilian Ronald.
In truth, it could have been four or five.
Interim head coach Mike Dodds made no apology for being bold with his team selection, admitting that it just didn't work inside the first-half.
A tactical tweak saw Sunderland revert back to a 4-2-3-1 and they were vastly improved in the second-half, albeit unable to salvage a draw despite a Luke O'Nien goal in the latter stages of the second-half.
It's now three defeats on the bounce for the Black Cats, leaving them eight points adrift of that coveted top-six, with a tough run of games on the horizon.
Matty and Joe deliver their verdict on whether Sunderland will finish inside that top-six, and how the absence of Jack Clarke told.
