    Sunderland are absolutely rancid tonight. It’s like a little boys team trying to play a Sunday league side.

    Aren’t half their defenders unavailable ?

    Sunderland looking as hopeless as we did playing over there.

    Yeah... which pretty much means this game is done barring a couple of wondergoals.

    To be fair that would take some beating. Sunderland are poor so far I do agree, but we turned up on Harry Potter coaches for a start.

    The club’s season is on the line tonight and we just haven’t turned up.

    Only positive is that you can see how impressive and effective a high pressing long-ball side can be at this level.

    Where's that little chap Diallo when you need him?

    Or Luke O Nien?

    I'm so fed up with Watford at the moment there's a part of me that is happy for Luton fans.

    You should probably chop that part off and throw it in the bin

    Luton are playing with serious intensity. They will run out of steam eventually.

    Agreed, but if they’re 3 up by then I dare say they’ve got the minerals to dig in and see it out.

    Well done Rob. Stick it straight in Pozzo’s eye!

    Only if Edwards had been in charge of pre-season.

    Sunderland can’t even get a deflection to go their way at the moment. Every midfield ricochet falls to a Luton man, every blocked shot dribble harmlessly through to the keeper.

    Luton seem likely to score from every corner

    Tbh we couldn’t play like Luton are with the squad we had.

    Physical
    Pressing hard
    Combative

    I mean even we got 2 against this defence .

    Just Luton won’t let it slip .

    It's incredibly basic football but when you're getting the basics right, it works.

    Edwards probably thought he had much better players with us than he did in reality, so probably thought he could play better football, poor bloke was salivating at dropping £5m on some Belgium hot shot striker.

    WillisWasTheWorst Its making less grammar mistake's thats important

    This game is a great example of what’s required to succeed in the Championship. Sunderland have the technically better players but can’t hope to out-football L*t*n without their physicality. L*t*n have strength, speed, determination with a little quality from crosses. Watford take note.

    So Pozzo is trying to recreate the Rob Edwards Luton model with VI, genius.

    If these ***** go up and they’re allowed to play their home games in that ********, they’ll cause lots of teams problems. Premier league superstars won’t like going there.

    Slumberland not even doing the basics really. This game is done.

    He probably wanted them to work hard like this and some players didn’t like it .

    Sunderland are utterly ****. No fight, cohesion or quality. Like watching Watford.

    Genuinely remind me of us. Suicide passes, bullied all over the pitch, no one capable of holding the ball up top, tippy tippy nonsense at the back between a group of inadequate passers…
