I think there's been a big overreaction judging by social media. It wasn't a great performance, but it was an improvement on Coventry. I would have liked to have seen subs sooner, but we have to remember Gnonto and Roberts were supposed to be out for 3 weeks, so they probably can't do more minutes. Having said that, I hope Gnonto is fit to start on Saturday. I'd start Joseph too. He'd give us some extra intensity, if nothing else.
Sunderland were very solid out of possession and really limited the space between the lines. I think that's 4 clean sheets in the last 6 for them now.

Totally agree. seen some absolutely ridiculous comments on the socials about the game... i've even seen a few saying Farke should be sacked, he's useless, always get subs wrong... etc etc the same Farke which has led this team to 87 points so far and nearly broke every club record going.. honestly what a set of idiots. End of the day it should have been an edgy 2-0 last night with 2 pens which is perfectly understandable at this stage, it was an nervy performance with a few players carrying injuries.
The crowd were also tense last night and it reflected on the players, Elland Rd can be a hell of a tough place to play, even for the home players. Like you say, we're most definitely playing patched up big time. I'd 100% start Joseph Saturday though, Piroe needs more mins too, he's the best goal scoring striker we have and got one against Coventry to give hime some confidence back. But, nobody can knock Farke and the job he's done, even if we don't go up he's still done a great job, he gets it right 99% of the time. Fans need to stick together, get behind the team and Manager and sing from the rooftops.
