Sunderland took on Arsenal at the Stadium of Light in desperate need of awin.
Needless to say, they didn't get that win. In fact, they got battered 4-1 after looking not half bad for parts of the first half.
As you can imagine, going on to become the joint worst team in Premier League history evoked some response from the unforgiving Twittersphere...
2 - Sunderland have collected just two points from their opening 10 games, the joint-worst start to a PL campaign (Man City 95/96). Nadir.
Sunderland are an embarrassment.
Don't think anyone realistically expected #safc to win today. But those goals... ðŸ'ˆ
Imagine being a Sunderland fan...
What a soul destroying existence.

3 things are guaranteed in life; death, taxes and 3 points against Sunderland.
It's never a good idea to manage Sunderland in Autumn.
@GaryLineker never a good idea to manage Sunderland at all
